Being born again does not make anyone righteous, if anything it makes one aware of how really sinful they are. Almost all of the patriarch confessed that they were sinners, Isaiah said, "We are all as an unclean thing, and all of our righteousness are as filthy rags, and we all do fade as a...

There are probably a dozen different ideas of who or what a Christian is. Some cults believe that they are Christians.

Christians have the Lord's guidance, but he won't impose himself on anyone.

Not true. Paul taught no such thing. The righteousness of Christ is to our account, we don't have it yet. It is reserved for us in heaven, 1 Peter 1:4. You still have your old unredeemed Adamic body that is prone to sin, Romans 8:23. If you had the righteousness of Christ, you would not be...

Paul spoke about them. He said that they are enemies of the cross, Philippians 3:18.

If you need to be told what to do it may be that you are not indwelt with the Holy Spirit. Christians are not Pharisees. The Holy Spirit is the Christians guide and keeper, John 16:13.

This is the age of the apostacy. The Christian church has departed from the faith and has embraced religion. Organized religion is anti-Christ because they don't teach or believe the Gospel. In the Gospel Jesus has defeated sin, death and the devil and now sits in heaven as "The King of Kings...

Obedience to Christ is not motivated by laws and rules, it is motivated by love. A good son does not need instructions. A good son loves his father and would never do anything to shame him or disappoint him.

Christians do not possess the righteousness of Christ. It is reserved for them in heaven, 1 Peter 1:4. As long as you are in you unredeemed Adamic body, you will sin, Romans 8:23. Christians are sinners saved by grace. The law is spiritual it searches the desires and the intent of the heart...

Paul did not teach or believe that we are totally sanctified. Paul struggled with sin, Romans 7:7-25. Paul said that we are corrupt and need to be changed, 1 Corinthians 15:53-54. This is why salvation is totally and completely outside of us and is found only in Jesus Christ.

Thanks for the explanation.

You are contradicting yourself. The conscience lets us know when we have sinned. The law confirms it. Some are spiritually dead so they are not convicted of wrong doing. These people are very dangerous.

Nothing wrong with Romans chapter 8. It is about being a Christian. There are two important statements that should not be overlooked, 1. We only have the first fruits of the Spirit. 2. We are still in our unredeemed Adamic bodies, Romans 8:23. This means that the flesh lusts against the Spirit...

The scripture says that the angels in heaven rejoice over every sinner that repents and comes to Christ.

Missionaries report that savages in remote places on the earth know about Jesus. When asked how they know about Jesus the answer is it is written in the stars.

Everyone has a conscience, even savages. They know when they have sinned. If they have remorse for their sin and repent, they can be saved.

When Jesus fulfilled the law all of the law was fulfilled. This is why the scripture says, "Christ is the end of the law for righteousness for those that believe" Romans 10:4. If there is no law, there is no sin, Romans 4:15. We establish the law by being "In Christ". God sees his people as...

Believers only have the first fruits or the down payment of the Spirit, Romans 8:23. The reason for this is to help us get through this life and be a witness for Christ and his Gospel. We have not arrived yet because we still have our old Adamic nature that is prone to sin. The Lord left us here...
