There is no such thing as "positional sanctification" What you would call "positional sanctification" is none other than justification....and is identified as that in the Bible. Saying that sanctification is positional is the devil's way of teaching that a person can be sanctified without...

Nope. You are not Jesus.

Gal 4:28, Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. Gal 4:29, But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.

Says you...

...you don't commit them any more. This is the reason why a man must repent in order to be saved. A man must change his direction...of walking towards sin, death, and hell...towards righteousness, life, and heaven. In walking in this direction, you would be walking away from sin...and...

There is false teaching within what you have spoken. I believe that there are many who hear this idea of "practicing sin" who excuse themselves saying, "I am not really practicing sin here; I am only committing it this one time..." and they do it over and over again in interims of two weeks at...

God will be their judge, and not I... He may consider that they crossed the line and judge them harshly (according to Ezekiel 33:11-20); or He may take a more lenient tact with them (according to Romans 4:5). And it may in fact be different with each person (see Romans 9:15). I think that the...

Receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour.

Sanctification is a practical thing (1 John 3:7, Romans 5:19, Matthew 5:6).

Again, "sinless perfection" is a misnomer that is applied to the doctrine of entire sanctification in order to create a straw man that is easily toppled by 1 John 1:8. When in all reality, those who believe in entire sanctification do not believe that sin has been eradicated from them (i.e...

If you have even been watching Fox News, you might realize that the writing is on the wall.

I know that I have passed this test with flying colors for quite some time.

I think that my answer is that if the person is truly born again, they bear the fruit of the Spirit (temperance) and therefore they are not going to curse in that situation. When a person gets born again, they repent of living a lifestyle of sinning...and the Lord changes them from the inside...

I am certainly no "Chester"....although maybe that is you... You need to look at the verses in question (Acts of the Apostles 17:28-29)....they say that everyone, whether regenerated or not, is the offspring of the Lord... So, for the purposes of understanding Hebrews 12:5-11, it applies to...

I have to disagree here. I myself have a thorn in the flesh that serves to keep me from being exalted above measure and it is identified as a sickness. It is also true that its basis is in a demonic spirit, an assignment from the enemy. God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame...

See Proverbs 20:27 and 1 John 1:7... . There you will see verses that speak of self-examination

I most certainly was not coming against you in my statement, friend. I was, actually, substantiating your statement by showing how it coincides with the fact that we are saved by the blood of Jesus.

The blood of Jesus sanctifies us (Hebrews 13:12, Hebrews 10:29) and cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1:7) so that we will be inclined to obey His commandments.

The answer is, I don't really know. Because I continued to have the gift of tongues. But I know that my life was not the life of a believer who was "born of God".

In those days I was attempting to save myself according to 1 Timothy 4:16...and since then have been saved through Ezekiel 33:11-20 and a few other passages. If I were to sin again, (notice I said "if" not "when") I have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous...and 1 John 1:9...
