Who is speaking of pride? Pride is sin it was the first sin that led to all the others. Satan's pride led him to disobey God and then rebel against the LORD Almighty of Angel Armies. No man is righteous in himself but we are made righteous wholly by Christ Jesus. He sanctifies us holy and thus...

I never said that righteousness and holiness was gained by works! If you would read and comprehend what you read you will see that every time I stated that God imputes His righteousness in us! Sanctification is an inward and outward work of the Holy Spirit. Genuine belief produces action! True...

1. The Holy Spirit is ONLY given to believers in Christ Jesus alone! So if they have the Holy Spirit then they are saved! For we are sealed unto the day of redemption! "You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does...

We need to return to righteousness and holy living! Jesus is looking for pastors, ministers, deacons, elders and just CHRISTIANS to live a life of holy boldness and a firery witness! Our witness should be fire baptized and sanctified! We need God to does His work in us of sanctification and...

""'When I called, they did not listen; so when they called, I would not listen,' says the LORD Almighty" (Zechariah 7:13) "Therefore this is what the LORD says: 'I will bring on them a disaster they cannot escape. Although they cry out to me, I will not listen to them." (Jeremiah 11:11) "Then...

I believe we should tithe as believers. Now will I condemn those who do not tithe, no it is their choice. But my personal conviction is to tithe! God gives me so much it is nothing to give Him a portion of my money, time, etc. So yes I do tithe and believe that it is important for me to tithe. I...

Research on my personal level needs to be done before I give an opinion on whether the group is wholey and or fully unhealthy. I see by the several comments that maybe this is one of the groups that give spiritual "junk food" and "snacks" in place of having a "sufficient and full entree".

lesjude, I agree with you on every point! People that have been ordained from the very pits of Hell are trying to creep in and wiggle their way into the Church and pervert the purity of the Faith. God will not allow it on the universal level for He said the gates of Hell shall not prevail...

Yes we do, well I can speak for myself. Yet the danger we enter is naming a whole organization, denomination and group of believers; "cultic" etc. That steps form mere study into judgementalism. IHOP Statement of Faith We believe that only the sixty-six books of the Bible are the inspired...

We are to worship God in the beauty of holiness (Psalm 96:9). As those that God has consecrated to His use and service only we are to walk in a way that is approtiate of the high calling we have received from God to be His holy vessells. Not by any righteousness of ourselves as I have stated in...

"Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed--not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence--continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling" (Philippians 2:12) Yes we are declared righteous by God through the blood of Jesus but God also demands that we live holy...

I agree with you being agnostic you have a good knowledge of moral law and social consciousness which is simply putting belief into action and living, doing and being all you can about your belief.

When we are regenerated (saved) we are taken out of the world. When we are definitely sanctified the world is taken out of us.

The person of the Holy Spirit is the Third person of the Godhead, the Spirit of Fire and the holy dove!
