    Yep! You're shaking in your boots. You're not prepared to loose your head and die for Christ. You'll probably take the mark for sure.

    Actusally Scripture explained Scripture and it scared you to death!

    The taken and the left

    Believe me, I would love to "be taken" in a pretrib. rapture. But even all the parables have the chaff being burned up and the wheat is left. Here is the wheat and tares. It is funny that you say that I am the one "hoping to connect." I think the writers of Scripture were the ones doing the...

    The taken and the left

    Matthew 24:39 , 39 and did not know until the flood came and TOOK them all away, Luke 17:27 .. until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and DESTROYED them all. Luke 17: 26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 They ate, they...

    John 3:36- Better to Obey Jesus, or to Believe in Jesus?

    Both. You can't do one without doing the other also and be saved.

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    That's not it. What I believe, no one else seems to believe either, even though it is clear in the Bible and God. I did not learn what I know from a denomination of man, so is not the "teachings of men." I expect, yours isn't either, but what you believe is not explained in the Bible, so we have...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    I'm sorry, Scott, but I don't think there is any way to discuss this with you. I've never heard anyone with this interpretation of your doctrine. You're on your own I think. Or are there any denominations that teach this I can look up?

    Scott, Daniel is speaking of the Jewish Temple. How can you think that the abomination of desolation could be inside the body of Jesus, or inside someone born again? You are not making sense to me. What is your belief about the second coming of Jesus. Preterist? Pre-trib.? Post-trib...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    That verse is about the destruction of the temple in 70 AD and Nero. And may also be speaking of a new temple being built not present yet as a paradigm of the one the Apostles were speaking to Jesus about with the Antichrist/the beast of Revelation 14. Matthew 24:15 “Therefore when you see the...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    I'm confused, and not sure what you think I meant. We will get a new body, but only after it has died and been resurrected. Paul speaking of a new creation is our inner nature, our spirit and soul, not our body. The reason why only our spirit and soul MUST be born again now is because they...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    I agree. Jesus is the Author and Finisher of our faith. When we first come to Christ and our inner self (nature) is recreated from a sin nature to a clean nature, a major supernatural thing happens to us, and we naturally keep the commandments of God. That first experience is Jesus being the...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    I know you know that our body is not replaced now, so what do you believe is happening now for us to be free from sin? It is our spirit and soul that is born again now. They are the new man. When God's people, when just the Jews, were living under the Law of Moses, they had a fully functioning...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    You are mistaken about what I believe. It is not the body of skin and bone that holds sin, but the inner unseen self of spirit and conscience. It is the inner self that MUST be born again of the Spirit. Once born again we are free from sin and full of the Spirit. It is the Spirit in our...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    I can't see how you can think verses 5-6 are not talking about being free of the carnal sin nature that Paul refers to as "the flesh." Which includes himself, and why his conscience is clear. 5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    Good, so you see too that the publishers made an error in Galatians 5:17 when it says," NKJV 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. The 's' in Spirit should be small...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    Scott, what I'm talking about is 1 Thes. 5:23. 23 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. This was my process of elimination: What I know is the old man is our sin nature...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    What the publisher's error shows us is that out of the spirit and soul, we find from Romans 7:25 about the mind, and comparing with Galatians 17 with the corrected spelling of 'Spirit' as 'spirit' that it is our mind that is our spirit. That leaves our soul as our heart and conscience. These...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    I'm repeating here what I said before about Galatians 5:17. I found a publisher's error in it. Have you never been confounded by verse 17? I was for it didn't make sense in light of Romans 8:9, so I prayed and asked God what He is trying to say as it seems we have both the flesh AND the Spirit...

    You may have been having the same problem I ended up having. I couldn't fix mine, so just gave up. Go back I look at the texts you gave and then at the verses you quoted. They don't go together. What were those texts? Additional verses for us to look up? I don't know, but if you start over and...

    The Spirit Delivers From The Power Of The Flesh, The Spirit Gives Sonship, The Spirit Assures Of Future Glory, The Spirit Assures Of Final Victory

    9But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11But if the Spirit of him...
