*** Do you really think a person can stop sinning by that person's will? What about the sinful nature that is in everyone? All through the O.T. we see that none of the saints of old stopped sinning and became perfect so why do people think they can do it now? Peter told the JEWS to repent of...

Matt 23:4-5 4 For they bind heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. 5 But all their works they do to be seen by men. They make their phylacteries broad and enlarge the borders of their garments. NKJV What...

*** So the Gentiles are Israel. That is twisting God's word so it fits your theology. No wonder you have such mixed up ideas. When Jesus came to Israel did He come to the Gentiles too. You will say yes but Jesus said no. Matt 10:5-7 (NKJ) 5 These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded...

*** I do wish that people would notice all the words in a scripture. If you will notice it is the Jews (the house of Israel) that this new covenant is made. It is the covenant that will be in effect when Jesus returns and sets up His rule on earth. When people say it is for the Gentiles too...

*** So you want me to read the whole book of Acts to see their teaching. Well I have read the book of Acts. It is a book that shows the transition from law to grace. Paul's rise and the falling away from the law. God made a covenant with the Jews. It was good news to the Jews. Covenant =...

*** Thank you but I see that you are the one that is confused. In order to promote the ideas that there has never been but one gospel you must throw out the book of Hebrews where it plainly states that the old gospel under law did not achieve what God wanted because of the weakness of men (men...

*** Under the Abraham covenant any one blessing the Jews were promised a blessing from God. The scriptures tell us that Cornelius was a blessing to the Jews. Nothing was said to Cornelius about the shed blood of Jesus atoning for his sins or having faith in the work of Jesus on the cross...

*** Your definitions are correct but that is not what was said. What was said by you is that faith has a tangible result component and I have already expressed my opinion that faith is not tangible. If faith has a tangible component then it is not faith. To say you have faith in something...

*** faith in what is seen (tangible) is not faith. You are using the word incorrectly. John 3:7-8 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, 'You must be born again.' 8 The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone...

*** Who asked "what should they do??? Was it the Gentiles or Jews?? Jesus was never sent to the Gentiles so how could the Gentiles repent?? so you think what Peter preached on the day of Pentecost was for those under grace. Show me where Peter said people are no longer under the Law of Moses...

*** So we justify ourselves by repenting, right? It is something we do, right? Wrong, a man's work can not justify that man. 1 Cor 6:11 11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our...

*** I have a problem with your statement concerning the "sinner's prayer of repentance asking God to save them" This is true for a person that has not placed their faith in the work of Jesus on the cross. But for those that have, their sins have already been atoned for and there is no need to...

*** To "live accordingly" is to live by faith in Jesus. Faith is spiritual, not physical. Rom 8:15-19 15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out,"Abba, Father." 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit...

*** According to scripture Jesus' body did not die as we see death. His body of flesh did not decompose in a grave as ours do. Acts 2:27 27 For You will not leave my soul in Hades, Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption. NKJV Acts 2:31 31 he, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the...

John 4:24 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." NKJV The above says that God is Spirit. How do men worship a Spirit? Is it by doing physical, tangible activates? Are tangible activities spiritual activities? tangible = what can be touched, felt by...

*** Are you saying you separate God from His word? How do you do that?

*** If you say so. But I don't agree with you. The response God wants is for a person to honor His Son by placing their belief, faith, trust, and confidence in His Son's work on the cross. You say these words indicate a work. Yet they have no relationship with physical works that people do...

*** Are you saying you don't know what a true Christian is? Phil 3:3 3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh, NKJV spirit, faith, confidence, belief, trust all of these words have no tangible components.

*** Do you equate faith as religious works? Religious works are tangible, faith is not.
