You are missing the point that Amigo is addressing the false belief and teaching that unbelievers can be saved by their own righteousness/good works.

Just I think we must not forget that it also says in Heb 4 "we which have believed do enter rest". We have rested, ceased, from our previous evil works of iniquity. All true believers have entered His rest and yet at the same time are on the way there for those who haven't yet entered in...

It is very sad seeing how when nations and churches cast off the Compass and Anchor of their soul (the Lord and His word) they don't know what is right and wrong, true or false, wise or unwise any more and become a prey.

I agree brother...unfortunately it seems the lunatics are running the asylum now....everything is upside down from how it should be. Think it has always or often been this way in a fallen world, but with the Lord and Christianity there was a greater measure of blessing and protection from it...

The carnal mind is enmity with God....it will and does lead astray. Too much splicing and dicing and dissection of the word with the carnal mind proceeds from pride and will lead astray........it leads to a messed up disjointed Picasso painting as opposed to a beautiful classic "realism"...

So perhaps that 1A was an attempt to keep church and state separate....? I don't know your system very well. Does freedom of religion keep church and state separate? In any case, regardless of your constution and founding fathers etc.........we have the word of God.

Here it is: Eze 22:26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them...

Well God's word says differently. The Lord says we are to differentiate between the holy and the common/profane and keep them separate.

I understand where you're coming from, because I used to think the same. But I think we can expect that the more blessed a society is the more fairness and justice there will be. Corruption and incompetence are curses that come upon sinful societies, probably to the degree that they are...

They are strong words sister, but the church sure does need that reminder these days.

This is the default nature of a fallen unbelieving world isn't it brother, unfortunately. We were blessed to have seen the blessings of a Chrisitanized, less sinful era in the west even though not everyone was born again, and many pagans/heathen were even leaving their own Godless dark...

Ah Epi…preaching to yourself again I see, as you so often do. I pray you will look in the mirror for yourself and that the Lord may yet be merciful and gracious to help get the log out of your eye. A wonderful thing about our Saviour is that we don't need to be afraid of being honest about...

No, if I may interject on this....in a society that is actually just, this is a government doing its God ordained job as per Romans 13. But we must be clear that this is not the church's job, only governments of this world. But do you know the word of God says we are not to be...

And when we prove the devil wrong at any time or on any thing, by the word of God, and he has no way to argue, he resorts to being mean and ugly. Very predictable. Occurs to me that this must be the devil's very nature..... he is too proud to ever be corrected and have the ability to ever...

Thank you brother. We can see how this is a battle of a spiritual nature. From what I can see, having a background in healthcare, what this woman did on behalf of her patients and for their sakes was respectful of the rules, professional and responsible. She had some unease about the...

Yes, and just to say I'm not heeding anyone here, but I am willing to hear what they have to say to understand where they are coming from and try to sort out the wheat from the chaff. But unfortunately nobody has taken me up on my offer to expound and look at how they are seeing those...

Much more these days it seems....sign of the times....it is a falling away that is happening. There are those who have both belief and testimonies. And neither of those things necessarily equates to right understanding. No idea what you are trying to say here, aside from it apparently being a...

Splitting hairs and putting too fine a point on that word "eis". John also said ye believe in (eis) God, believe also in (eis) me. If we have true faith and have received Christ by His Spirit we have believed "into" or "unto" or "on" or "in" Him. Now we are instructed that we must remain in...

Yes. But the point I was making is that sincere and genuine born again believers who have received Christ and His Spirit do not typically start out practicing lawlessness and iniquity. We are righteous living though not perfected yet, and as well God's righteousness is being imputed to us by...

Should we make that scripture void? "People" are not God. When HE calleth that which be not as though they are....they ARE. The creation of a new creature.
