    Dead to the Law

    I beg to differ, Paul indeed taught faith alone. Several times he tells us we are saved by mercy, several times he said, by grace through faith, and many many times he tells us our salvation is not by works. I contend that salvation is by grace through faith alone as Paul taught! Now, the...

    Dead to the Law

    Gen. 15:6 "And he believed in the LORD, and He accounted it to him for righteousness." Abraham believed God, that's what saved him and why he did what God asked of him. Just as it is today, we work because we are saved not to get saved. If one doesn't understand this, it's going to be...

    Dead to the Law

    The RCC no more respects Paul's Gospel of the New Covenant that do the Muslims!

    Dead to the Law

    What it means is that even though there was righteousness in the Law (Paul is speaking of the moral Law, 10 commandments) no one could attain it because no one could keep it. Jesus told them "did not Moses give you the Law, yet none of you keeps the Law." This is what Paul means by "for what the...

    Discerning : The Water Cults

    We certainly disagree on many things, no doubt about that! The many things we disagree on can become a heated argument or can be a controlled argument, I was telling you ahead of time I prefer the latter. As far as water baptism being public, it's a ceremony where the church members are invited...

    Discerning : The Water Cults

    So why play games, can't you make your points from scripture without "leading" as you call it?

    Discerning : The Water Cults

    The answer to your question is clearly written in scripture and you know what it is! There's something mischievous about asking a question like this, don't you think?

    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    LOL, those UR folks that I have argued with for years would get a kick out of that!

    Dead to the Law

    What do you think this means? Rom. 8:3-4 "For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the...

    A Question About The Death and Resurrection of Christ

    The sin nature is NOT rendered dead in anyone jbf! You are rendered dead to the sin nature by virtue of your faith in the sacrifice of Christ. The sin nature will not have dominion over you if you are walking in the Spirit. This misunderstanding leads some to believe they can lead a sinless...

    Dead to the Law

    Don't you mean instructed BY THE CHURCH! None of it comes from Paul, he is ignored!

    Dead to the Law

    The amazing thing is that they accept Peter but reject Paul. But what did Peter say about Paul? 2 Peter 3:15-16 "And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; As also in all his...

    Dead to the Law

    The Catholic trademark is repressing the scripture from the layman. They are not to read but to follow instruction from the church. That's why they are one of the water cults, and law-keepers of their own merit. Justification by faith that Paul preaches is foreign to them.

    A Question About The Death and Resurrection of Christ

    jbf, I'm going to have to tell you that God didn't give you His doctrine as you have said. Don't know where it came from! You don't even know that by being in Christ by faith, God sees us as perfect law-keepers when we actually aren't. It's called justification by faith. We are only considered...

    Discerning : The Water Cults

    No reason to explain it to me, save it for when you meet Him! Cause He's gonna ask you why faith in His Son was not enough that you had to add water baptism to it!

    Discerning : The Water Cults

    Already explained Acts 2:38 but nothing is going to change your mind. You're in the water cult to the eyebrows. Not going to beat my head against the wall until I have a headache for no reason at all!
