I take issue with this statement. Reckoning oneself dead to sin is not a belief in what Jesus has done for all unless He has done it in you personally. To reckon is to impute or account. And here is where the meaning of words count. People think that to impute means to give something or claim...

God's position is that we obey His commandments...at least physically...for righteousness...or FULLY, by walking in the Spirit. I see "positional theology" as a human means of explaining away or "spiritualizing" what they can't understand.

How many Jewish rabbis do you think are addicted to porn? Maybe a few. But your own depravity doesn't take divine intervention to stop. Stop exaggerating your claim. Just become as you are supposed to be in obedience...just be at least like a Jewish rabbi who is not a believer. and leave it at...

Any non-believer is miles ahead of head cases like @Behold and others here. At least many non-believers still have some honesty and sense.

LOL. You will say anything to escape reason...a real joke. The free is FREEDOM...not having no cost like your false gospel. Zion is FREE from sin. In Him is no sin. Entering the kingdom costs you ALL. Being born again costs nothing. Your quest for freebies misses the truth of a liberty from sin...

Wow...unlearned and unstable. I did post it but you don't even recognize Paul's words....so much for being a Paul follower. (you will be rejected by Paul too on that day) Where do you think the "Jerusalem which as above" is located? But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of...

I make it a habit to not read your posts very closely...only so much hooey a man can stand. BUT...I will answer an "honest" question. You ask... What does it mean to be born again? Well I don't subscribe to the American middle class version of it, for sure. To be born again is to be birthed...

OK but the concern is when an obese person takes that obesity for being pregnancy. One needs to have a very close encounter with God to birth something that can emerge in a full-blown holiness. Or one can simply go to God with faith seeking after His grace, by forsaking everything in this world.

For some Who is DOING God's will? One is either holy or not...like being pregnant...no one is partially pregnant based on a incomplete understanding Not for many here. Look at the antics...the flesh raised up...the "how dare yous" of the carnal man. The self-justification. You would have...

Or we could speculate whether the actor that played Gollum, Andy Serkis, will be able to pull off directing a new movie? Non-biblical speculations abound....

Your false gospel that Paul warns about...your own man-made foolish contraption that justifies sin and falsehood.

More lies and foolishness. If I write a verse where God declares someone righteous...like Abraham, you will say that is only for the Jews in the OT. If I quote the many times the righteous are mentioned you will obfuscate and say that the testimony is from men. And they were both righteous...

James was speaking of truth on a righteousness level, since Paul is only concerned with holiness and glory. Righteousness is EITHER by works OR by faith...as is amply demonstrated in the bible. If one doesn't know this then one needs to study more. However, the reason Paul focuses so heavily...

A lot of people are encouraged in the religious system to read the bible and claim spiritual things for themselves as being "figurative"...since no one has any real experience in spiritual things. It's due to ignorance...but a WILLFUL ignorance. Paul said...having a form of godliness but...

You have a positional theology...which isn't borne out in reality in most cases. You speak of truth in a figurative way...according to word groupings....but Paul said he didn't preach the gospel in word but in POWER. You have to venture out of the world of theory and into eternal reality. Why...

Here is the conclusion of the matter... Seek the LORD, all you meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be you shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger. Zeph 2:3

Amen. Or is at least acceptable. That's the right way of seeing things...in humility. Amen. Wise words.

Hey brother...but the gospel IS in the Torah as the "second law"...the Devarim. Check out the video. The Torah was the bible of the early Christians. Peace

The truth is that the modern gospel is neither righteous nor holy. This is a situation I will seek to remedy. Notice how any kind of specific doctrine of either is met with very strong opposition. If the modern gospel was at least righteous, then it would line up with ALL the verses on...

Bald-faced lie. Why do you always twist the truth? And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just (righteous) man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.
