@robert derrick, before we begin to study the power of sin over man according to Paul, we must first define what Paul meant in Rom. 6-8 by the word "sin." But first let's define the sin nature according to the Greek scholar Kenneth Wuest. "The sin or evil nature is actually the Adamic nature...

I will be sure to show you in scripture how I know Paul is speaking of the sin nature. There's no doubt about that! I can show you that now, but I want to give it all the best explanation possible for me to deliver. I want to cover it thoroughly and that takes some careful consideration of...

I see Paul plainly telling us we have a sin nature, and telling us what to do about it. That would make a good thread, I think. When I get the time, I will put that together and we can take a look at it. Compare doctrine to doctrine to scripture.

You don't want to believe there is a sin nature, that's fine with me. It looks as though the only thing we have in common throughout the Scripture is that Christ is the Lord and Saviour of mankind. That's good enough for me.

NO! That's not what I'm saying! I'm saying that sin against God brought man down from the state of perfection in the Garden to the state of living in his sin in man's new nature, his new state of being. That new state of being is living in the nature of sin. Man has fallen from one state of...

Every problem that exists in this world is because of sin! Every disease, every birth defect, any and every problem in your life came from sin entering this world. All death and sickness is the result of sin! And on top of that you are born into this state of existence doomed, with no hope, all...

It came from the result of disobeying God. Did not God say, 'if you eat of this tree you shall surely die?" That is the spiritual death, and that leads to a physical death all because of disobeying a perfect God. The idea is as I have stated at least twice in these threads, Adam and Eve were...

The sin nature fell on man the very instant he sinned in the Garden. Now all who are born of the seed of man have the sin nature because Adam and Eve brought sin into this world. If you want to see the sin nature at work, put two toddlers into a single playpen with one rubber ducky. You will...

Can't we disagree without using the word "LIAR?" That is a negative that needs not be! OK, I made your ignore list. That's not my problem. In your mind I'm disagreeing with Paul through your interpretation. You have no time for my interpretation. All you can see is that I'm calling you a...

My God said, "whosoever will let him come...." He didn't say I choose Joe and Bob, but not Jim.

I disagree with you but never called you a liar. That is an invention of your own making, which reflects the wrong attitude, my friend! It seems we have to agree with you or we are against Paul, that is absurd!

Just because someone disagrees with you does not mean they are calling you a liar! That's the wrong attitude to have on these boards. Just because you interpret Paul a certain way does not mean you are right, the same goes for all of us. The way I see it, concerning your quoting Christ that...

You know Davy, I have a problem with those who would use Paul as a liar if we don't agree with you! That is not the way a Christian approaches the Scripture! The resurrected body can be whatever you want it to be. The example is Christ Himself. He had a spiritual body of flesh. Yes, that...

Before the foundation of the world God knew He would create man, man would fall, and a plan was made to redeem man. After Gen. 2 the theme of Scripture is that plan of redemption! We see it time after time, God working His redemption plan for man to be saved. The individual person is not...

So many things to discuss here, rd! We are all born with a sin nature. When we are born-again through faith in Christ, that sin nature is not taken away. Paul said in Rom. 6:12, "Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof." Paul is talking to...

What you do not understand is we who believe will one day have a body just as Jesus had at His resurrection. That body is immortal flesh, not mortal! Paul explained the difference in these bodies. It is FLESH AND BLOOD, the mortal flesh, that cannot enter into heaven. Just as Paul said! The...

The Last Adam (Christ) made a "quickening spirit" is referring to a immortal body now made alive in the Spirit, no longer mortal with blood circulating throughout the body. It also refers to all who believe being made alive in the Spirit through His death, burial, and resurrection. Christ...

The first thing that comes to my mind with the "olive tree" is the error of replacement theology.

It must be the Father, the Son, the Holy Ghost, and robert derrick!

That's why Trump is already talking, "planting evidence."
