I have no idea why you say I'm going back on my words. I speak the same truth every time so there's no need to go back and forth. You simply do not understand what I'm saying because you see the Scriptures different than I do. You're stuck on this 1 John 3:23-24 thinking that it means something...

I do not agree. Those in Christ abide because they already have the spirit. Nobody can try to be good and get the spirit.

It's not the words that need to be changed. It's your understanding of them that needs to be changed. Your way would mean we win God's heart through works. Right back to the Law.

We see the Scriptures differently. Let's try an example that might help you see what I'm saying. Because I loved my Father so much (was already his seed) was why I wanted to please him. What I think you're looking at is that you would want to please some guy so that he will let you be his son.

I stay in the spirit now. It did take Romans 12:2 to do it because I was so used to walking in the flesh. Like breaking a habit. It did take me a while. www.carb-fat.com/walking-by-the-spirit.html

Oh I see the problem. You think we have to keep the commandments to be in him. I think those of us who are "in him" are the ones who can keep his commandments. Note: The commandments mentioned here are not the Old Testament Israel commandments.

He probably only knows what He plans to do. Not what is going to happen. A God totally in control can run a world of controlled beings. But what is magnificent about that? If everything in the universe is already set? Then the conversation God has with humans is more like that between a...

So if there is no verse in the Scriptures stating God is “omniscient” meaning He knows the past, the present, and the future. Then why do so many Christians believe God is omniscient? The answer is: Ancient Greek Mythology and Philosophy.

I have no idea why you think walking in the spirit is the same as keeping his commands. When I am close to the spirit of Christ, then I will function as a partner with the Lord whereby it becomes a joint effort. I believe the spirit of Christ is my new nature and therefore I have been able to...

This concept did not attain the status of a universal explanation for evil until years after a man was born on the planet who was called Augustine. It's indeed historically true that what has constituted the most frequent explanation in the church and in western culture for why people suffer is...

We do indeed have significant differences among various traditions spread out all over the planet. However, the one fundamental shared concept seems to be quite similar, that the world is a spiritual battle zone, which is why it looks that way. From Indonesia to the Hottentots of South Africa...

I disagree that... we only remain in Him by obeying His commands (1 Jn 3:23,24). I believe "in him" means walking in the spirit. Here maybe this will help... www.carb-fat.com/walking-by-the-spirit.html

Here's what the Jewish wars are about... Islam wants Christians and Jews dead. It's their way of cleansing the planet so their Prophet will return.

I would enjoy commenting on the following found in the OP... John Darby, a Protestant pastor, lawyer, theologian, and respected Christian started the Dispensational movement, whereby God deals with mankind in major dispensations or periods. I do not know why we have so many Christians who...

If the dead are already alive? Then what gets up when the Lord returns? 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

Much of the Roman Catholic doctrine was assimilated into Protestantism and is still being passed along as Christian groups continue to split off from one another. In a nutshell that is why even the independent church in your neighborhood today most probably believes that there is a trinity, dead...

Jesus was put in a manger that was an animal feeding trough used in ancient Israel made of stone and nothing like what you would see in a modern day nativity scene. Not comfortable, but great for protection. That’s why those who were experts in this matter like the priests would put their...

And you don't think it's strange that you just happen to believe everything the Catholics do who have been in this for a good 19 hundred years? And you say I'm not following the Bible because I don't believe anything the Catholics teach.

I am not a Jehovah's Witness. Can you look me in the eye and tell me the Catholics don't believe what I mentioned?
