The scripture say that we can not quit sinning as long as we live in bodies with a sinful nature. Rom 7:22-25 22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of...

mjrhealth, You got it right!

I have already posted an OP on Peter's sermon and see no reason to repeat it for those that will not accept it. Peter was only speaking to the Jews who were under the Law of Moses. But the religious will never believe this because their religion is founded on a miss-interpretation of who Peter...

So you claim that only men can interpret the scriptures. You must not believe what Jesus said about the Holy Spirit leading God's children into all truth. I believe the Holy Spirit exists and that He teaches the children of God. But those in religion only believe the interpretations of men...

Two places in the Bible that I do not feel support baptismal regeneration (water baptism necessary for salvation) are as follows. 1 Pet 3:18-22 18 For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by...

What is the difference between repenting daily and having an attitude of knowing you are a sinner in the flesh and need the shed blood of Jesus to pay for your sins. I have already posted the following: True Repentance: I believe that repentance is necessary for the child of God. But that...

Obviously you did not read what I wrote since you are just trying to say we are under law. I have never met a person who is without sin. You seem to claim that you are since all you are saying is that we must not sin.

The church of today is not God. The church is a ""congregation"". Try looking that word up in the O.T. and you will be able to see that there were churches in the O.T. too. The churches of today are congregations of people that believe in the same ideas of religion. To me the word religion...

Don't call me friend when you know that we are not friends. My friends are the children of God that have been made children by their faith (trust) in what Jesus did on the cross (Paul's gospel). They are sinners saved by the grace of God when He (Jesus) shed His blood on the cross. Oh, I...

No. 1; You fail to understand that it is not my disregarding sins in my flesh, it is regarding that Jesus has already paid for those sins. It is you who want to say I am disregarding my sins. I live in a body with a sinful nature and it sins (Romans 7). But I have placed my life in Christ...

I am also anti-church since I consider the church today to be just like the church of Christ's day. They were anti-Christ since they murdered Jesus the Christ. But you went to far when you said anti-Bible. There are many opinions about what the Bible says and therefore, to you, being...

Spoken like a true religious person that thinks he must take everything in the Bible and apply it to salvation regardless of who it is directed to.. Since you say you think everything in the Bible is written to you which Jewish temple do you worship in? Which Rabbi or Priest do you confess to...

I agree that a person has to recognize that they are sinners in need of salvation. But that salvation was paid for on the cross. Placing belief, faith, trust, and confidence in what Jesus did on the cross is proclaiming Jesus AND His work on the cross. Why repent of sins of the flesh when...

You are trying to make what I wrote to be changed to what you wish to talk about. That is an affront to me as well. This thread was not on the subject of repentance. Repentance is not a ritual, it is a continuous attitude of knowing you live in sinful flesh and thanking Jesus for what He...

Did I miss it? I don't think you said anything about building confidence in what Jesus did on the cross. After all, isn't that what we are supposed to express to others? Or is it that we should say to them, look at me, I do all these good deeds for others and you must do them too. I think...

I do not accept your opinion. If you are sure that Peter had the Gentiles in mind on the day of Pentecost then show the scriptures that support it. Those afar off are the Jews because only they were given the promises. I have stated that Peter did not know the Gentiles were included until he...

What do you see as continuing in the faith? What is faith to you? Is it trying not to sin or building confidence in what Jesus did on the cross?

It is very important to know just what the Jews were saying to other Jews. All the Jews had to do was to accept Jesus as their Messiah and King. That is the gospel the the Jews preached in the 4 gospels and the first 7 chapters of Acts. However the nation of Israel refused to accept Jesus as...

You said; "those "afar off, and as many as God will call" It is an assumption that Peter was thinking about Gentiles at that time. Peter had no idea that God would call the Gentles. The vision given to him later is proof of that. You said; "Do we then overthrow the law by this faith? By no...

Thanks for reading the study. Yes I know Jesus said this to the 12, but the 12 were to start with the nation of Israel and then to the world. Israel, the nation, was to be a light to the Gentiles. I believe it will happen when Jesus comes back and sets up the promised kingdom in Israel...
