    'The Quality of Love' - Ephesians 6:24

    I actually used that poem as my "signature " on forums for a long while! Lol...I really like it myself :) the Lord taught me a lot through that little composition

    new version of OSAS?

    The "gospel" is an interesting topic. :) Jesus preached the "gospel of the Kingdom". We tend to preach a "gospel of salvation " in the modern version of the church. I wonder what the difference is? :) Jesus also stated that He will not return until the gospel of the KINGDOM is preached to...

    Spirituality vs Religiosity 3

    I would say salvation is a growing relationship, out of which good works can come. Religion is about works attempting to build a relationship. See what I did God? Now you have to approve me...I deserve it! :)

    new version of OSAS?

    Have you stopped beating your wife yet? :) ill answer for my own words and beliefs....I don't need a completely disingenuous, manipulative statement, disguised as a question (that is the heart of a liar), trying to deceive and skew the whole discourse. I don't answer to statements you imply I...

    new version of OSAS?

    I don't have to see what others believed. I know what I believe and that hasn't changed at all. There is an understanding of what the Bible teaches about how we are built, spirit, soul and body, and exactly how His perfect salvation operates on those three aspects of our existence, that makes...

    Sorry....no "new" OSAS theology here. Straw man junk.

    new version of OSAS?

    1 Corinthians 6:17 NKJV — But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him. 2 Timothy 2:13 NKJV — If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself. Galatians 3:3 NKJV — Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?

    So, as one relatively new still, what's with the name calling, insults,pejoratives

    I think there is evidence of just how much lawlessness and antichrist spirit has invaded the so called church. And I think the Lord is very close to doing some serious cleaning within His own House. He only puts up with us profaning His Name for so long. And I suspect His patience has run...

    What is it with abortion-supporting "Christians"?

    It's crossed my mind that almost everyone condemns Hitler's choices, murdering 6 million Jews, and another 4 million political enemies. Maybe 10 million people dead by conscious sacrifice. Yet it goes unremarked..in yhe US, that since 1973, we, our nation, have murdered somewhere around 85...

    the blood?

    There is more to a soul than just "life". I believe the Bible pretty clearly reveals the soul is the mind, the will, and emotions. Spirit is what we are...the fundamental essence of our being. Soul is WHO we are, individual and unique. The body, is just a temporary tent spirit and soul live...

    the blood?

    If we bled out, gave our lives for our sin, it still could not have redeemed us. It had no spiritual life in it. After the fall of mankind, imperfect human blood could no longer pay the price Justice demanded.

    the blood?

    Blood had to be shed...human blood...blood with life in it. And He did that for us.

    the blood?

    Jesus willingly shed His perfect blood to answer God's demand for Justice against sin, and His mercy applied that payment to our sins, if we will just believe on His Son.
