No...and by this you expose the absolute ignorance among Christendom today for what constitutes a saving relationship with Jesus: It is total surrender to Jesus as both Savior and Lord - trusting only in Him to save us from our sin --- AND --- surrendering the throne of your heart to Him, that...

Once again, we all know what is the process of "Christian Origination" - now can we forget about that for a moment and talk about "Christian Obligation", which God says failure to fulfill is not an option?

Why are you so fascinated with driving nails into Jesus' hands and feet afresh with your sin? Why do you like to see my beloved Savior suffer? Is it because you know the Lake of Fire is your destination and your only comfort is to inflict as much suffering on Him as you can before you are...

Because breaking the Sabbath - which is sin - made necessary the death of our beloved Savior on the Cross - a Cross which has not nor will ever grant anyone a license to continue doing that which made necessary His death in the first place. The ultimate proof that God's Law can never be...

The Bible says that we're to be primarily concerned if WE OURSELVES are keeping His commandments, not the other guy. And, trust me, each one of us knows when we're acting contrary to the will of God. If by "legalism" you mean attempting to earn salvation, we should all be fully aware that Jesus...

Yeah, right, Jesus had an advantage over us in the fight against temptation and sin...that's why He painted the ground red with His blood in His fight against the temptation to run from the path which ended at the Cross - the path His Father set before Him. As I suspected, there yet remains not...

"If you can lose it, you never had it to begin with" is an oxymoron. The example you give is that of a hypocrite - and does not preclude a saint becoming a sinner.

"Hereby we do know that we know Him IF WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS. He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not His commandments is a liar andthe truth is not in him." It is impossible for those who are not totally surrendered to Christ to obey His law (Romans 8:7), therefore if a man willfully...

Yes, but the issue is not things missing out of the majority, but the extreme minority (which happens to be the "oldest" MSS and therefore somehow regarded as "best") is missing much of what the "later" MSS have. For instance, 1 John 5:7: "There are three that bear record in heaven, the Father...

Then don't look. We know full well that just before a look turns to lust, the Holy Spirit calls on us to "look away! look away!" and right there we either cry out for His help to tear our gaze from that which the flesh wants so badly, or continue looking until we are lusting and become guilty...

OSAS comforts those who refuse to make a total surrender to Jesus as both Lord and Savior with the false security that they may by dead faith obtain that which can only be obtained by living faith: eternal life.

If you don't hate the Ten Commandments, that means you love them, right? I'll see you in church this next seventh day Sabbath then, as the Ten Commandments specifically declare.

You'd condemn Jesus as "fascinated by sin" too for saying things like "go and sin no more" and "sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you."

You sound like the cheating husband who claims to have great love for his wife while perpetually sleeping around on her. BTW, we're not talking about "Christian Origination", we're taking "Christian Obligation". Why you dragging how to get saved into the discussion when all agree that comes not...

Look, the only way I'm going to accept the popular notion that "nobody can keep the Ten Commandments" is if those who preach that will admit that just before they fell victim to it, they fought so hard against temptation that blood poured out of them like sweat. As far as I know, not a single...

Of course. This is a prime example of the fulfillment of the Messiah's predicted work in Isaiah 42:21. Can we find an example of one keeping the spirit of a law while simultaneously breaking the letter of that law? Can a man in the act of copulating with his neighbor's wife be innocent of...

Is the one you serve named Satan? It is he who led you to despise the reasonable service of the Ten Commandments because he hates them as much as Antinomianists.

So, God will be disappointed in those of us who strove to keep their bodies under and bring them into submission for Christ's sake, while praising Antinomianists who shout "freedom in Christ" while engaging in the "self love" of internet porn or some other sin, right?

I'm not sure why you doubt that "signified it" (book of Rev) points to "symbols which require interpretation" when the book contains not only what are clearly symbols like the composite beast of Revelation 13, but also symbols which are directly interpreted for us, like "the waters which thou...

Not the KJV per se, but the Textus Receptus, which was the NT basis for all non-catholic Bibles all over from the 17th century to almost the 20th century. The Critical Text has been condemned by many scholars in the past for various technical and suspect reasons, but the further non-catholics...
