    The Sanctification of Man

    When I read the Bible, I receive the words from the Holy Spirit, (GOD), Aspen. I don't receive them from Jeremiah, Isaiah, Paul, or John. It has been really helpful to me that when I listen to men or read their words, I don't read them as if from Aspen, or dragonfly, or Prentis, but I look to...

    The state of the church

    I agree and I should not have posted to Aspen. Let's get back on topic. Axehead

    The state of the church

    I don't know how they can be if they are basing it on Rome's teachings which go against God's Word is so many places. I view Catholicism as a cult like Mormonism or Jehovah's Witness, because of the false doctrine of transubstantiation and the idolatry of Mary and the "Saints", to name just a...

    Christ-like.

    Paul concluded Romans 7 by saying, "So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin," vs 25. After all the self-effort to the flesh, the flesh was still under the law of sin. No amount of Law applied would change this fact...

    The state of the church

    The Catholic Doctrines are a "Patchwork" Gospel. Always changing and always adding "patches" to it's garment. Soon, Rome will have a new doctrine (new patch for its quilt) and will announce that our sister in Christ, Mary, is Co-Mediator with Jesus Christ. She will be called Co-Mediatrix...

    The Gospel of Grace:

    Episkopos, I could not have said it more succinctly. Very good. Regarding the commandments: When the "law" or "commandments" are mentioned, most people think we are talking about the rituals and ordinances that were done away with when Jesus came to fulfill the law. The rituals did pass...

    Adam-like

    Actually, it would be Satan-like (who is a spirit) or Christ-like. We were created receptive creatures that look outside ourselves to derive our character. We either have the spirit of disobedience (Satan) or the Spirit of God. There is no in between, no neutral according to God's Word. There...

    Grace is the power to become

    Great points, Episkopos and dragonfly, Paul distinguishes between our Body and our Spirit and that we should glorify GOD in BOTH. 1Co 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. Since we are bought with a price (Jesus Christ)...

    I am crucified with Christ - The Word for the Healing of the Body, Today.

    Thank God, we are not Schizophrenic!! God did not do half of a job when He came to dwell with us. But, nothing is automatic and the race and the good fight continue, and we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us! Axehead

    Listening to what Jesus says about the church in our time.

    I am so blessed, also to find so many that fear His Name and desire to love Him with all their heart. And welcome JohnnyB! Your posts have blessed me. The "young ones" that are currently enjoying "their first love" have much to tell everyone. May they always abide in that love. There is no...

    Christ-like.

    Hi Veteran, Can you clarify what you mean by "assume the position of "a Christ"". Would an example for instance be the Pope who says he is "Christ on earth", since the real Christ seems to be gone (but is not). Of course this is not assuming a position of "A" Christ but rather assuming the...

    The Gospel of Grace:

    What would my testimony mean to you in light of the fact that the scriptures we are bringing to your attention don't seem to mean anything to you. Any confidence that I would have had that you would not mock and ridicule someone is gone. Now, you want a testimony because you cannot address the...

    Grace is the power to become

    I did not construe, I asked you. It is simple deduction. You seem to think that the only sin that is sin is "spiritual sin" and that it has no manifestation in the physical realm. So, then you believe that physical fornication and adultery is SIN? Yes or No. Thanks, Axehead

    Listening to what Jesus says about the church in our time.

    So many good threads, so many great posts. You guys really bless me and I wish I had more time to interact with you. God is indeed calling to anyone that will listen, that it is time to wake up, wake up O Sleeping Virgins. 1Cor 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not...

    Grace is the power to become

    Ok, Haz I think I understand. I asked you in the Gospel of Grace to explain what you mean that "our body" is dead and now physical sins are not counted against us. You think all sin is spiritual now. Sin, my friend, is anything that is not of God's character and nature. Physical fornication...

    The Gospel of Grace:

    From Dave: ​ [/font][/color] You have no way of judging that, just like no one can judge your conscience. It is plain to all, however that your words are very abrasive and abusive. First of all, please don't try to flatter me. I am not moved by flatter. It usually is a ploy to gain...

    Hey there Dave, Can you also give me your definitions for "flesh" and "walking in the Spirit?" Thanks, Axe

    The Gospel of Grace:

    Hi Dave, Will do my best to explain what I mean. Seventh Day Adventist are Sabbatarians and I am not a Mosaic Law keeper. I am a born-again Spirit-filled Christian. Ok, will work on your question but I may not get to it today. I have some other things that need tending to. Axehead

    Spare The Rod ~ Spoil The Child...Should We Spank Our Children ?

    Everything you said is very, very TRUE and I don't see anything that I would disagree with. Axehead
