    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    Was/is there a particular verse in Matthew 24 that causes you to see things differently?

    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    It was God who taught me. Jesus is the apex of all prophecy, the Beginning and the End. It's that simple. But, consider who Jesus said "endure to the end" to. It was to the house of Israel for which he came. After that last "evil generation", then began the times of the gentiles. Different...

    Why didn’t any of the gospels or epistles ever mention the 1000 years?

    The reason is because the times of the gospels primarily pertained to Israel, while the thousand year prophecies primarily pertain to the gentiles.

    Satan was right? Egads!

    You get nowhere by using one quote from Jesus against another. Jesus, summarizing his own Word said what I said...but you make it an argument.

    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    All of what Jesus spoke to his disciples that are now a big part of the gospels, occurred before the cross and before he went to the Father and sent the Holy Spirit making salvation (being born again of the Spirit of God) available for the first time in history. Since those to whom he was...

    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    I have told it here a few times...but after a good, hardworking, but wonderful childhood, then marriage, kids in the baby carriage, my own business, followed by being a victim of crime then years of downward spiral, loosing everything, and coming to the end of myself...one night, having no...

    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    No...that would only be true of one who has not passed from death to life. That is not salvation. That is the misunderstanding of those who have not rightly divided the word of truth, and a lie of Satan. What you quoted was Jesus telling those who had not yet been born again of the Spirit to...

    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    No...the parable is indeed about salvation, about repenting of sins only to return to them as a dog to his vomit, giving Satan all the more reign.

    Entire sanctification in this life?

    There is a [sinful] irony to the idea of living in the world without sin. It's even an oxymoron. The problem comes in settling into life in the world, rather than life above. This is a form or an admitted level of unbelief--an acceptance of the lie that salvation is not the passing from death to...

    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    Peter was speaking of the terms of the parable given by Jesus, wherein such a person, having [only] been swept clean had not yet attained salvation and therefore could end up worse off for not receiving what was good that they should be filled with Christ rather than left open to the devil.

    Why will God end our world?

    Believe what you want, but "weeks" is a variable term meaning "sevens" in a variety of applications regarding the mysteries of God's use of times to reveal all that is written about which there is no time except with men and their lowly state. "Sevens" is rather a reference to God and his...

    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    Notice that Peter says "knowledge" of Christ, meaning they are not actually saved, but have only become aware of what can be gained or lost, yet they have not yet attained it. So, then, his counsel is for those who have been called but not chosen, not yet reborn of the Spirit. It is good...

    Why will God end our world?

    The purpose of God's creation is salvation for the lost and justice against those who prefer evil. When "It is finished " then comes the End, whom is Christ. All this comes during "a time, times, and half a time", which is all of time divided into two different times: the times of Israel and...

    It is good to tell the truth, and sometimes the truth hurts. But it is better to edify, better to build up than to tear down.

    Pentecost and the Secrets of the Spirit: Building Up the Body

    Not just all believers, but "all flesh", meaning both good and evil. This is the work of God that brings us to the End, whom is Christ.

    Saying you are without sin verses in 1 John

    Why argue against having "passed from death to life" as the scriptures say, when only one without understanding would do such a thing?

    Praying for the Dead

    As long as it is "today" all prayers are included.

    How to maintain God's Salvation

    Not sure what you mean by little or no effort. As for Christ, the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of the Lord, and all authority in heaven and earth are His.
