Yes, 'Abba' means 'daddy' or 'papa' in Aramaic.

Again you are presenting nothing but empty accusations. I could just as easily say.... "Veteran is one of the main antagonists against the Mid Acts false Hyper-dispensationalist double-gospel movement, so there's no reason for any... Christian believer to heed his writings over God's Word as...

Like I said even in your reply you are misrepresenting. A good series you might want to look at to get a fair idea of mid-Acts is called ACTS-Dispensationally Considered by C.R.Stam. He presents well his case without all the 'put downs' against Covenant or Acts2 view.

What happened to Romans 7? Get your heart, mind and soul on Jesus. We died to (the power) of sin and the law (Rom 6 and 7) that we may serve Another. Sometimes the deceitfulness of battling sin is to focus on the sin rather than the Victor over sin.

Lust is the opposite of trust.It is desiring and manipulation to get in our own strength rather than asking and relying on God. From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have...

Veteran, Nothing like a straw man argument. I am interested in an argument against Mid Acts position but from one that represents accurately not from one that misrepresents. You sound like you had a bad experience with them? Richard, I would also stress that the Lord's Supper is a...

I'll go with Abba, Daddy...it's safer.

Well here is a good one. Once when we first visited a (conservative) Anglican Church, which is supposed to be a hybrid between Rome and Lutheran, our daughter exlclaimed, "Why is Jesus wearing clothes upon the cross?". The answer was something like it is portraying Jesus as Victor...

biggandy, I am glad you are grand bro, knowing you know and I know it is because of the grace of God we are who we are. :rolleyes:

He protects us/US as we seek HIM, not safety for safety's sake.

Same reason you suffer from delusions of grandeur? :P

That's how I see it and probably clothed in some type of temporal garb until we receive the redemption of our bodies. I find interesting that the three on the Mount of Transfiguration recognized Moses and Elijah speaking to the Lord about His soon crucifixion. And as he prayed, the fashion of...

Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit. (Mar...

I am not so much using his faith (he probably is a nominal Mormon) but rather evidence of misguided judgement which can extremely affect everyday and international discisions.

Vashti, Nice post. I would only say that true repentance involves not only turning from sin but simultaneously a turning to Christ. Both are two sides of the same coin.To turn from sin by itself is only self serving if even possible.

Jake, Go ahead, you can sacrifice yourself to obtain forgiveness. I choose to plead Christ's sacrifice in my stead for the remission of my sins. This is why I said "He is God's sacrificial provision and yet as man Jesus offered Himself to God; and as man He identifies with us as our High...

God molds us in having genuine feelings as we learn to make decisions based on His Word.

He is God's sacrificial provision and yet as man Jesus offered Himself to God; and as man He identifies with us as our High Priest/Lamb. . So we can say also He is our Sacrifice, well pleasing unto God.

As I've stated, when it comes for 'President' Romney to have the nation to call upon God....as a polytheist, which god? Also, I still have reservations of an individual to be put in such a high office who can't cleary discern/make judgements to see through such as Mormonism. Didn't we...

Aspen, You say you are Roman Catholic. Is it true that Rome sees justification as a lifelong process along the lines of sanctification? I see a number on this board denying Rome and yet embracing that formula for justification rather than the Reformers view of a declared righteousness by...
