    It was here two weeks ago. We both had a question for each other. You demanded I answer yours first, I did, then you bailed on me and left me hanging. So keep on your current path. Let someone else have a chance.

    Whenever I try to have a discussion about pisteuo, you disappear on me! So good luck with just believing in God's word.

    Vines : " pisteuo is a personal surrender to Him and living a life inspired by such surrender. Producing a full acknowledgement of Gods revelation of truth." No mention of " believing. " It's a mistranslation of the word pisteuo. The English language doesn't have a corresponding verb to the...

    Not by works - but by faith

    A true Christian doesn't think about " making it to heaven." A surrendered life, isn't a true surrender if we're expecting something in return for the surrender. That would be some kind of business deal or vending machine kind of process. When Faith applied, or the continually surrendered life...

    why would the Lord God, not be with you?

    It's not about whether God is with us or not, it's whether we are with,or in Him. The Father gave His Son, His Son gave his life, for the entire field. Everyone ever born has the choice to access the Grace He provided, by Faith. Accessing that Grace is done by Faith applied, " a personal...

    Not a biblical idea? Did you think before you said that? God's ways, starting with the Jewish people and how their sins were covered? The temple, the curtain, the blood put on every utensil. The Scriptures are nothing but types and shadows of Christ, things to come! This is the problem that...

    Not by works - but by faith

    Faith and faithing aren't "works", Faith and faithing are "work"! Faith, " Pistis" applied is " pisteuo." "Pisteuo is a personal surrender to Him and a life inspired by such surrender." So the " work" involved in the application of Faith relating to the living God is 95% courage, and 4%...

    Not many people understand the paradoxes of God, even though as Christians we accept the biggest paradox going out the gate. Christ was 100% God and 100% man at the same time, all the time. All of God's deeper truths are paradoxes.

    Not by works - but by faith

    Everything in Christ is paradoxical. The closer I am to Him, the further away I feel. Paradox explained: The further away we feel in this temporal world, the more we surrender and trust in Him. Being closer to Him in the eternal world, is the direct result of a Continually surrendered life and...
