It goes to show that the devil can use people who mean well but who have been incorrectly taught. A member of this forum (sorry not allowed to specifically address issues about another member publicly to shame them; even though he has sought to publicly shame me by calling my gospel "FALSE and...

Forgiveness and life are in fact promised to those who "turn from their wicked ways" (Ezekiel 33:19, 2 Chronicles 7:14).

Romans 5:5 tells us that we can indeed love the Lord our God with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength because of the Holy Ghost who has come to dwell in us. See Romans 2:13. it is not that we are justified by keeping the law; but that those who become doers of the law will be...

It was not directed at you although it was using you as an example. Sorry, I did not intend for it to specifically say anything about you in the sense of specifically calling out Adoration for his/her sin. I had hoped to mention it as an example without your name/moniker even coming up. For...

Maybe you are being overly judgmental of some of the people that you have met...judging them to be sinning when in all reality they were not sinning. Often Christ has a different idea of what sin is than we do. For example, one person judged another on these boards saying that because they...

Maybe what I have written is for someone other than you...who has perhaps struggled with the idea that they may have lost their salvation for ever. I assure you that the verses I have referenced are not taken out of context. And even if they were, did not Matthew take Hosea 11:1 out of context...

I assure you that there is victory over besetting sins. I found that in being persistent in studying the word and absorbing its principles, that one day my besetting sin just fell away from me and I had no more desire for it. God is the rewarder of those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).

My point has been that the law is not a requirement if, for the believer, there are no consequences for violating it. For we are forgiven; and our relationship to the law has changed. We are not under it any longer (Romans 6:14), we are dead to it (Romans 7:4, Galatians 2:19), and we are...

What about that idea is "yikes" to you? Is there something in the epistles that you feel isn't the gospel? What is it?

@Blood Bought 1953, I just want to say that you calling me a "Tare" is hurtful. I know whom I have believed and I know that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day. Please forgive me for taking you up on your challenge. I do not believe that if someone who is...

In Job 14:7-11, it is shown that when a person falls away, it is as though they are cut down as a tree and only a stump remains. There is hope for that tree. At the first scent of water it will bud and produce boughs like a plant. Also consider Psalms 31:22. The person thought it in haste...

I think that the definition that you give to work is what may make the difference between what is the letter of this law and what is the spirit of it.

Phl 1:9, And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

Now @Michiah-Imla, I'm interested in your take on John 5:24 (kjv). Jhn 5:24, Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. It seems to me that here...

Also, Jesus knows His sheep (John 10:27); and therefore those who work iniquity are not the recipients of the three-fold assurance given in John 10:28-30 (see Matthew 7:23).

Again, it is only the letter that Jesus violated on the sabbath day by doing work on that day. He did not violate the spirit of what the law is all about; because He re-defined the sabbath day law according to the spirit; so that the sabbath was made for man and not man for the sabbath; and it...

No...it should be clear that anytime Paul preached, he was preaching the gospel.

However, neither the Father, nor the Son, nor the Holy Spirit sinned in this...because each one of them is the Lord of the sabbath and are not subject to the laws as they were relegated before they were changed (Hebrews 7:12).

The way to life is narrow...

Apparently Jesus claimed to be violating the sabbath day in John 5:16-17. Was He lying? John the apostle's estimation under inspiration of the Holy Ghost was that Jesus did indeed break the sabbath (John 5:18). In Exodus 20:10, it should be clear that those who do "any" work on the sabbath...
