I haven't looked it up but does it have to do with EPH 6:1-3 “Children, obey your parents because you belong to the Lord, for this is the right thing to do. 'Honor your father and mother.' This is the first commandment with a promise: If you honor your father and mother, 'Things will go well for...

That's quite an accusation!!! I would need to see you quote Epi to prove what YOU are saying about him. It sounds more like you are twisting his words to bring attention to yourself. Show me the proof!! :backtop: In case you all have forgotten....the thread was about a book I was reading...

You did not address this... you went on to say.... To be born again, one must draw God's attention, no?? How do we draw God's attention....by our faith and our deeds!!! Able succeeded to draw God's attention, now we must also do so in order to be born again, to be born of the Spirit. So, I...

...and you didn't, yet you still posted Who's rejecting the gospel of Christ?? Don't we?? The deed of repentance, the deed of loving God, and the deed of loving your neighbour as yourself. The deed of Able's sacrifice received God's attention and God's favour. So, the question is are you...

Who is disregarding the dire need for faith in Christ??

1 Cor. 2:15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one.

Can we just stick to the topic please?

My thought on this is that absolutely everything is new (after the second benefit or being in the promised land) so it would be a step by step walking by faith (not by sight) (never been here before---this is so amazing and miraculous that I don't want to mess this up kind of mentality...the...

I appreciate your answer but this doesn't clarify you calling the man a liar!! Are you saying this man is subject to your weaknesses?? (It was 100plus years ago, so the women didn't dress the same then as now). Could that be the difference???

In the New Testiment there's a "mortify" (Col. 3:5), a "put off" (Col 3:8) BEFORE a "put on" (Col. 3:10). This is all so that we can grow!!! Hosea says: (10:12) Sow righteousness for yourselves, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to...

(I haven't caught up yet), but yes, the concept of growth is all over the Bible, however, don't exclude this concept: Jeremiah 1:10 King James Version (KJV) See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to...

Hi Lizbeth....no, I haven't had time to keep up the the thread....I have to read the pages between my posts.

Are you saying that Jesus didn't walk in the Spirit??? What isn't found in other books?? The testimony of people walking in the Spirit is found in the New Testament as well as in other books written by or about the people who have this testimony. I agree with this! But, doesn't this...

I don't understand how you can say that man is a liar? Please clarify.

You asked me: and when I saw believe and baptized my mind went to Mark 16:17 "and these signs shall follow them that believe..." according to this verse, although I am baptized (water) and I "believe"....I guess I don't believe enough (Lord, help my unbelief) because in reality, these signs are...

Actually in my Bible it's in red letters...which means Jesus spoke them. And Jesus is the way the truth and the life, right??

Mark 16: 16-18: 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any...

This is where I am stuck, what I can relate to: Romans 7:21-24 21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. 22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into...

I guess what I would have to say is, faith....I lack faith....and sadly, there's no excuse for it!!

The first thing I'd like to address is this: "Said an old professor of over eighty years, in a certain holiness meeting; "I believe in holiness; but I don't think it is all got at once, as you people say. I believe we grow into it." This is a very common mistake, second only to that which makes...
