Barrd, you still haven't confronted the FACTS listed in the study and I realize you will not do it. Below is just one of them; FACT! No, Abraham was not!　 ---- according to the scriptures He was accounted righteous (JUSTIFIED) before God several years earlier, BEFORE the birth of Isaac, and...

Way to go Barrd! You must think that if you can post all your scriptures you can ignore mine. The scriptures I gave are equal to yours. You just ignore the scriptures I gave and made no comment on them. That is the way religious people debate.

Way to go Barrd!, not one word about the FACTS brought up in the study. Just a lot of words that simply ignore what was written in the study. Since there is no way to rebut the facts given, I see this as just many words put up as a smoke screen over the facts brought out in the study. It is...

The study: Was James confused? Or was he still preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom, which included the Law? James 2:20-21 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar...

You need to read what Paul's writes in the book of Romans. In it Paul says that the Child of God is dead to the law, buried with Christ. Rom 7:3-4 3 So then if, while her husband lives, she marries another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that...

No such thing as dead faith. A person either has faith that his/her car will start or they don't. And, if a person has faith in the car starting it certainly isn't a dead faith if the car starts. In this the car represents grace. Eph 2:8-9 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith...

Quote > "To me, true repentance "IS" a "CONSTANT ATTITUDE" of the heart and is not an action that is done at some place or time." What part of my statement do you disagree with? At what point does a person think they no longer sin and do not need to have an attitude of repentance? Isa 64:6 6...

Let me talk about repentance.\ In my opinion true repentance is necessary for the child of God. But that repentance is not a ritual that is done when they think they have sinned. I believe in a repentant attitude, an attitude of continually acknowledging, to God, that the sins of the flesh are...

What I know about the RCC is not that it is not so great. You must be a RCC member and you know their doctrines. But I disagree with that doctrine and will not waste my time. 1 Cor 2:12-13 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know...

So I am deceiving myself. Or can it be that you are deceiving yourself. Don't you think we should leave you and me out of the discussion and not throw around accusations.? I certainly have not said Jesus' shed blood on the cross is nothing. I have been saying it is everything required. I...

The fallacy in your argument is that you are indicating that the child of God CAN NOT continue to sin any longer, and yet everyone continues to sin as long as they live in this sinful flesh. According to the scriptures the law (with it penalty) has been "nailed to the cross". It, the law, can...

Yes the law is good but the law has never saved anyone because no man/woman can keep it. The law can only convict and condemn a person. Only grace can save a person and it is found in what Jesus did for mankind when He, Jesus, shed His blood to paid for our sins of the flesh.

It should be obvious that when Jesus gave Paul the gospel of grace; (that all of mankind's sins have been paid for on the cross), the only way Satan could get a person is to make them "not believe it." --- And that is just what Satan has done, and Satan has done it through the churches that men...

Absolutely the truth. A very good post.

Who decides who those men are? Isn't it just men? I firmly believe that the Holy Spirit (God) is in this world and He is the one that teaches the individual child of God. To me, if it isn't found in the scriptures it is not from God. Acts 17:11 11 These were more fair-minded than those in...

Quote from above, "I do not believe that there is any part of the Bible that is not intended for everyone who will read it." --- Neither do I but I can certainly know what parts of it are written to me as a Gentile and which parts are specifically written to the Jews and which parts are...

Some people take the opinions of others to form their own. I always know, after the fact, that when someone uses the "WE" word on a forums it is meant to indicate that they are in the majority and the person addressed is in the minority I remember that Jesus said only a few find it and that...

I know what you are saying. However I do not believe it. I am trying to show that the book of James, by the words in that book, clearly tells us it is written to the Jews only. To think otherwise is to make it a book written to who ever a person wants to think it is. As for me I will believe...

Perhaps it is because the churches do not preach the gospel of grace but instead preach the gospel of good works. Christians got the name of "Holier than thou" for a reason. Someone in a Sunday Bible study, when the conversation got about going to heaven, said "I hope I am good enough." The...

I can't believe it. Do those on this forum see me saying that the branches support the tree? I never said that. What I said in bold letters is; QUOTE "Both the Jews and Gentiles feed off the same root which is Jesus Christ." Since the writer of the words in the quote mentions both the Jews...
