What you are in fact preaching is a form of "Positive confession". As Long as you believe hard enough that you are complete in him, then you are complete in Him.... Dale Carnegie would be proud of your theology. Your theology wants to go to 2 Corinthians 5:17 while Skipping 2 Corinthians 5:1-5...

That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. (Ephesians 4:22-24) From the context of...

Thanks for the responses thus far. I will leave this open for a few more days before responding. God Bless.

But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. (Galatians 5:18) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. (Romans 8:14) A lot of the promises and Riches granted us by the grace of God are contingent on being led by the Spirit, But there is very little...

When you were first born again did you fully understand the mysteries of God? Or did it take time and study to learn of these things? For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh; That their hearts...

Actually this is right on the topic we are discussing. We are born again not as mature Spiritual elders but as Children (See 1 John 2:13 for these stages of spiritual growth) So here you have a problem with your theology, if you say we have all we need when we are born again, for even scripture...

This is false. This is what you attacked and accused @Gideons300 of over and over again on the other Forum. For the record what I teach is eternal security as well, Just not as a doctrine that is to be believed but as something we must arrive at through Christian life. Just like you are not...

Let me answer this with a quote from Tozer: “The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven’t yet come to the end of themselves. We’re still trying to give orders, and interfering with God’s work within us.” Part of that coming...

How is it then that you do not recognize the doctrine of assurance of salvation as Preached by mainline Baptists and instead label it as "conditional security" when is not? It just shows you have no clue what you are talking about... Also progressive sanctification is mainline protestant...

You shall know them by their fruits, and your fruit and vehement hatred for brothers in Christ is showing in your responses.... I am praying for you... God Bless.

My "Lunatic theology" is mainline protestantism (Baptist), That is how far off base your theology has gone off the rails that you cannot recognize Christianity any longer. For the record, I was not "kicked off the last forum" I chose no longer to comment there because of moderators who like you...

The resting place of God is both NOW and future, as it is eternal. "Today" (Hebrews 4:7) every day is an opportunity to not harden our hearts which is what prevents us from entering his resting place. But it also speaks of a future resting place we strive for (Hebrews 4:11). You are not wrong...

Like HIH said, context is everything in this passage. It is directly referencing the Israelites in the wilderness and how their unbelief prevented their entry into the Holy Land, and instead a generation died in the wilderness with the exception of Caleb and Joshua, who believed in the Lord...

Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. (2 Timothy 2:3-4)

You are the one confusing biblical concepts here... You are confusing justification with sanctification, and replacing the Christian life with a form of Complacency. Put simply, (Quoting J.C. Ryle)... "Justification: I have been saved from the penalty of sin. Sanctification: I am being saved...

Please continue reading the passage from 2 Peter 1:5-10. By His Grace, we are given all things but it is up to us to deploy those things. You can give an army all the weapons they need but they must deploy them properly for them to work. There is a spiritual war going on, and ones side does not...

One day, when you come face to face with a Holy God you will truly understand how unworthy you are and how much you are lacking. You would be well serve to have the attitude of the Publican vs. the Pharisee in Luke 18:9-14. Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee...

It's the part about becoming servants to righteousness that is my focus here. Progressive sanctification yields the Fruit of the Spirit in our lives. What ever term you use, it is the same thing as Progressive sanctification.... "Building our character", "renewing our mind" these are all parts...

Yes, we have the righteousness of Christ imputed upon us, But that is not an excuse for sinning that is known as turning the grace of God into Lasciviousness. (Jude 1:4) I Noticed you did not answer the question, How come? I will ask again.... Are you yourself free from sin? If not, then you...

I Just know sanctification is a lifelong process. Read my post from A.B. Simpson as sometimes you need to hear from a different source other than the one you arguing with.... Grace for grace: A.B. Simpson From "A Larger Christian Life" | Christian Forums @ Christianity Board Are you yourself...
