** So we are Jews? Peter is talking to the Jews who realized that Jesus was their Messiah and King. The promises were made to the Jews. There were Jews who were living in other nations. To assume Peter was talking about the Gentiles is illogical since Peter didn't know the Gentiles would be...

*** You equate believing to be a work but it isn't. Believing is spiritaul and has no physical component. The scripture says God is a Spirit and those that worship Him must worship in the spirit. That exclude any physical component. You're responders are right, if you do not believe in OSAS...

*** It means that everyone has a pardon, a free gift of salvation. But only those that place their belief, faith, trust and confidence in His work on the cross. To not believe what God has done for you leaves you in company with those that believe Satan instead of God. The condition of...

*** How can you be a witness for Jesus if you won't say how your sins have been dealt with? I have answered that Jesus dealt with my sins on the cross when He shed His blood to pay for my sins. My faith is in what He did. Can you give the same answer?

Everyone knows that I answered your question. Your not accepting my answer is your problem, not mine. In case you can't read a DICTIONARY I will answer again from the Dictionary. All sins have been paid for. Atonement = satisfaction given for wrongdoing, injury; amends; / the effect of...

*** Then how are your sins dealt with?

*** What do you think about it?

Covered vs. pardoned In the garden, after Eve and Adam sinned, God shed the blood of an animal to get skins to cover their nakedness. -- Gen 3:21 Also for Adam and his wife the Lord God made tunics of skin, and clothed them. NKJV This was a prelude to the Temple worship where the sacrificial...

The shed blood of Jesus is everything that matters Heb 9:22 22 And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission. NKJV --- NOTE: remission = forgiveness, pardon, cancellation of debt, etc. Isa 53:6 6 All we like...

*** And I suppose you have made yourself holy, right? Jesus didn't have anything to do with it, right? The child of God has the righteousness of God IMPUTED to them and are therefore holy. Not by what they have done but what Jesus did for them. Perhaps you should study to see what the word...

The child of God has been re-born in the spirit. It is the spirit that no longer sins because it has been born of God. However the sinful flesh has not been born again and still sins (see Romans 7). This is the struggle that the children of God indure.. The sinful flesh says, "see you stil...

*** Your right. A person can not make him/her self Holy by what they do or not do. But be of good cheer Jesus has made us Holy in the spirit and we have become the children of God by faith in Jesus' work on the cross. 1 Cor 1:27-31 27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put...

*** A person can not be holy while living in a body of sinful flesh. Why do you believe that salvation is all about what you do, or not do, when the scriptures I posted plainly tell us that all sins of the world were attoned (paid) for on the cross. Do you really think that your scriptures are...

The title of this thread is Cain and Abel. If a person can not understand that Abel believed God when God said that only shed blood could be used. -- Cain did not believe God and demanded that God accept the works of his own hands. It is true today, The scriptures tell us that Jesus attoned...

I have been saying that the only thing that condemns a person in this world is un-belief. Jesus paid (attoned) for all the sins of the world when He shed His blood on the cross. Everyone who believes He did are saved. In the following verses where it says He takes away the sin of the world...

Good thread mjr Both Eve and adam were the creation of God. There was no promises made in their birth. After Adam and Eve their children were created by the flesh; the work of a man & a woman. To say they are created by God is an error of thought. As for promise, Abraham had two children...

*** Take a close look at what Jesus said; Luke 18:10-14 10 "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself,'God, I thank You that I am not like other men — extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this...

*** It is only when a person sees that he/she can not change their sinfuil nature that they realizes what a blessing God has given us in His Son's work on the cross. We can not change our sinful nature but God has given us His grace in that He made a way for us to become His children. I think...

*** Excellent post because I believe the same thing; Not what we do but what Jesus did for us.

Since the thread is "WHAT IS THE GOSPEL" I would like to say that when Jesus came He preached the "GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM" because all He preached was that the promised kingdom was at hand. He was here to setup the promised kingdom. There are no words in the 4 gospels that say he was here to...
