John, accusing one of not loving is the same as you accusing people of sinning. We will know them by their fruits and unfortunately we can't observe your fruit and you cannot observe our fruit (in real life). All we have to go on are typed words on a computer screen.

John, We are not throwing stones at you any more than you are throwing stones at us. What I mean is, you don't think you are throwing stones at us and we think the same, regarding you. You don't realize that you put yourself above your brothers because you believe everyone sins except you and...

Do we live by morals, or do we live by the Life of Christ? There were many times that Jesus could have been accused in his day by the Pharisees of not being "moral". Morality is relative and many Atheists will say it is not moral that Jesus had the power to heal everyone but did not. Same can be...

Ephesian church is an interesting church, because as gifted as they were, with miracles abounding, Jesus said, they "lost their first love". Do you think they became prideful? Jesus considered it sin to leave your first love because he commanded the Ephesian church to REPENT. Rev_2:1 Unto...

Form does not guarantee function. Or put another way, dropping a denominational name does not guarantee the Centrality of Christ over men is recovered. You can dress up the outside, but the inside may still be man-centered rather than Christ-centered and than spells corruptness.

Well, looks like we have "dualing Bibles", here Johnlove. I don't accept your version as I see it as a corrupt Bible version whose roots go all the way back to Alexandria, Egypt and Origen. Of course, it was planned by the Evil One that confusion would be sowed into the Church with the over 400...

I think you are confusing people who love sin and love to sin with people who hate sin, but sin through the weakness of the flesh. You cannot "walk in darkness" (a way of life) and say you have fellowship with Him. 1Jn_1:6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we...

Looks like you skipped vs 12 in 1 Cor. 2, johnlove. 1Co_2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. I see that you have been quite busy telling everyone on the Internet how wrong...

John, You have lost another person to converse with in me and I will tell you why. You are quick to assume what a person means by the scriptures they present and then you are quick to judge people to have false spirits. The other, very glaring thing is that you set yourself up as one that knows...

The point is that James was writing this to the Church, not to the unbelievers. Why do you think he felt a need to communicate these concepts to the Church?

Thank you for a clue about your doctrine. Let me ask you a question. What happens to those who do not enter the Kingdom of God? And, does the Bible tell you how many will be in the Kingdom of God?

I'm not quite sure why this thread was locked as I was going to respond, but since it is locked I will start a new one, albeit a different episode. Here is the one that was locked. http://www.christianityboard.com/topic/20862-us-police-shoot-dead-boy-12-holding-replica-gun/#entry240885 I...

You just answered your question for us. Present Christ (the Gospel, Good News) to them. Sometimes, you can talk.

Without examples I really don't know what you are referring to. Why don't you give some examples from Scripture?

Give me the scriptures you are wondering about.

If you read the Word but don't do it then you are a double-minded man. It is not only important to talk the talk but to walk the walk. James_1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. ( it is possible for you to deceive yourself ). James_1:23 For if...

Why would Paul find it necessary to write these words to the Church? His admonition to the Church is to "put on the new man". In Eph_4:22, he instructs them to "put off the old man". Eph_4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness...

Many people don't like going to Church because they read and understand their Bibles and the Holy Spirit has led them out of organizations that revolve around men or even the organization, itself. They discern that the organization is devoid of the Spirit and the love of Christ and it is a...

John_14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. John_14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye...

Obey the Spirit of God, He will lead you to put to death the deeds of the flesh. Heb 5:9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
