The Lord Jesus baptized me with the Holy Spirit, and also He set me free from being closed-minded. I have approached the NT with an OPEN heart and mind. I have had absolutely NO previous biases or doctrines. But you, you are blind to the multitudes of NT verses, which WARN believers in the...

Above is not Scripture ... it is just man's opinion. Mine is that repenting of your sins as you move forward ... is a strong indication that you have the correct and acceptable heart attitude toward God. And 1 John 1:7-9 promises they will be cleansed away by Jesus' precious blood.

Yes, I respond with the simple example of Romans 8:12-14, and you call it fallacious reasoning. You have been grieviously deceived.

Isn't it obvious that I do NOT believe ALL of our sins (past, present, future) were taken care of on the Cross. BTW, your Scripture does NOT say ALL iniquities (past, present, future). IMO, the iniquities of ALL believers up to the point of receiving the Spirit were taken care of. There are NT...

Yes, "for the last 50 years or so" ... western churches have exponentially gone in favor of the utterly disastrous "easy grace - easy believism - OSAS" doctrine of great popularity. However, according to many words of the Lord through His faithful saints: a great revival is coming, in which you...

Yes, I'm here with the audacity to state that ... Those who are involved in habitual (unrepentant) sinning are playing with fire, as they are gambling with their salvation! Multitudes of NT verses WARN that OSAS is a false doctrine! The Lord demands some accountability from His believers...

I got as far as this. ALL sinners will NOT be allowed into the city of New Jerusalem. We're talking about ALL habitual unrepentant sinners. Ditto for being in the Book of Life. ALL sinners will be thrown into the Lake of Fire (Rev 21:7-8). There are other condemnations of ALL sinners. Most...

IMO, the rest of Romans 8 describes what it means to be "in Christ". And it ain't pretty for the multitudes of today's American "believers". Let's start right here with ... they "walk not after the flesh". Perhaps, you might just agree that ... believers who are habitual unrepentant sinners...

I would respond thusly ... NONSENSE! Just for starters ... James says faith without works is dead (useless). There I go again, putting words in brackets. The famous Ephesians 2:8-9 says nothing about your favorite word "alone"! It doesn't even guarantee this grace will last until death, which...

Care to see the 10 NT verses which (is supposed to) teach us that those who practice righteousness are righteous (in God's eyes). Please forgive me for adding those words in brackets. What do I know about God's eyes?

IMO, you're avoiding me and the dozens of NT passages which threaten loss of salvation. The precious Holy Spirit does NOT need any particular words to be in Scripture. Those who are being led by God's Spirit are sons of God (Romans 8:14). Instead of quoting NT passages which you've already...

Then please read carefully what I have written. I don't enjoy playing the part of a babysitter.

I'm just concerned that you really need to understand what you are reading.

FYI, da red above was directed at you, and people like you. Thanks for not agreeing to address even one of the dozens of NT warnings re: losing salvation. I guess some things never change!

This is all very exciting! ... but not because we've been down this road before. Very exciting and very popular with those who have been deceived by Satan through the church. Please note: the Holy Spirit will NOT convict people (for very long) who are NOT OPEN to receiving spiritual Truth...

Well, we can start with one obvious example ... 4 times in John 14, Jesus said that those who love Him will obey His commandments. Once in John 15, He said that those who are His friends will obey His commandments. So, may I ask a very disturbing question? Who is going tp heaven who does NOT...

Congrats ... you have just blown my mind! Did you make up da red, or have I been woefully uninformed? If this is true, things are FAR FAR worse than I have ever imagined. But, amazingly, God still loves these people ... which does NOT mean they're going to heaven.

you do not understand that continuing repentance takes care of on-going sins ... a provision has been made for the cleansing of sins via the precious blood of Jesus. It's all about having the correct and acceptable heart attitude before our most Holy God.

The following were copied from the OP ... believers who insist on being habitually-disobedient sinners the false doctrine of easy-believism and easy-grace without accountability, which has deceived many believers into a false sense of security

“Don’t be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins(*), for the terrible wrath of God is upon all those who do them. Don’t even associate with such people.” (Ephesians 5:6-7, TLB) (*) the sins which are listed immediately before in Ephesians 5:3-5. Other similar warnings are in 1 Cor 6:9-10...
