    "That Wicked" has problems!

    You are missing what I said of how the world interprets faith to themselves. They have human faith IN THEMSELVES, not in God!

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Well, you could have love for everyone in the world, but if you don't have faith, it is impossible to please God. So, loving everyone, does not grant you God's Salvation. Do the following words apply to anyone, who does not have faith, as a reason for their salvation? John 15[13] Greater love...

    Which brings us full circle to the correct words in the Textus Receptus Greek: "the wicked", and not the inserted words, being [that] [W]icked!

    ^....Because, They are in the picture and no one else, especially God! And rightly so, because they are "that man of sin, the son of perdition", sitting in the temple of their bodies, which are meant for God to dwell in.

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    When the people of the world say things like: "Keep the faith, "Just believe" "You gotta have faith" "Where's your faith 'Bro'?" "Faith can move mountains", God is not in their picture of "faith" .

    To that, I agree.

    Christopher Reeves hoped that he would conquer his ailments, and did exercise his human faith, that he could and would heal himself, through his own "positive thinking". . A Hope to get well, is without action of will, but having faith in that hope, is the human will put into action, to will it...

    I think we all witnessed such vain "will power" in Christopher Reeves ("Superman"), who became a paraplegic through a horse riding accident.

    ^ Correction: Will their "human" level of faith deliver them from disease and death?

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    T Hey will their "human" level of faith. There are millions of unsaved people out there, facing disease and predictable death, having "faith" in themselves, that they will conquer both the disease and death by "sheer will power" , which is human faith. You hear the stories all the time!

    In that you are correct, but you side stepped my question. What does John 3:18 and Rom. 8:9 say, in regards to what you previously posted: "2. But, Jesus Christ is Lord of All who are on planet earth--whether they recognize Him or not."

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    1. Correct! There is Human faith, and there is "the faith of Jesus, the son of God! 2. When Jesus said "O ye of little faith", He was speaking a truth about our basic human faith of hope in and for ourselves, which is to have faith in that which is predictable, such as "I have faith that it...

    1. You didn't answer my question! Do the tares (unsaved) attend church? Do they get involved, helping out with church functions? Do they assist on church committees, and help make decisions? Have they ever helped out covering for a church school class, for adult or children? Can you say no, none...

    As I did say: "Its a habit of mine to emphasize His Righteousness as opposed to ours, which is through the Law." . There are many professing christians who are attempting be "good" (holy), by either wilfully and purposely keeping the 10C Law verbatim, or driving themselves into ground by "good...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    I can understand that. I do agree. However, Tares are not saved, and though they appear to be Christians, we shall know them by their fruit, whether it be of the Holy Spirit or of the natural man.

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Honestly, I didn't even pay attention to what you did with capital letters. :) Its a habit of mine to emphasize His Righteousness as opposed to ours, which is through the Law. See, I did it again. Can we forego the personal attention of who is doing what with grammar/sentence structure, and stay...

    I think you missed my point, but instead gravitated to the myopic. What are you referencing concerning the Koine Greek?
  18. Earburner

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    You introduced another "category" , as if there were those who were questionable as having been saved.

    Are you wanting to say that the Holy Spirit leaves a person who grieves the Holy Spirit? Surely you must know that our bodies of flesh and blood ARE SIN until they return to the dust. Heb. 13[5] Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he...
