Of course, what @Behold is teaching is the natural conclusion of the understanding that we are not under the law, are dead to the law, and are delivered from the law (Romans 6:14, Romans 7:4, Galatians 2:19, Romans 7:6). That this is true means that the law does not in any more certain terms...

Heb 12:4, Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

I believe that that is in fact what he is saying.

They believe...they have faith...and thus are saved. Just not in the sense of election and predestination. But they are indeed saved as defined in Matthew 1:21. They fall away later because of temptation.

I would say that I am perfect (Hebrews 10:14) but not sinless (1 John 1:8). I believe that you have it backwards.

Blind as a bat to what sin is.

I believe that we are saved by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9). Luke 8:13 tells us that there are those who believe and then fall away. Do you believe that those who fall away continue to be saved?

@Behold, do you say that you have no sin? because that is what @CharismaticLady has been saying about herself. You should be agreeing with me for her salvation...because the scripture says clearly that in denying that she has a sin nature, she is deceiving herself and the truth is not in...

All of these things listed are sins that also stem out of the sin nature. You are not going to be able to tell me otherwise, and have me believe that you are even credible in your statements.

I believe that you are misrepresenting me. Go back and quote the post where I used the word "self-effort" and put my words in context. I do not believe in any sense that I am saved by my own self-effort. I believe that Christ sustains us when we place our faith in Him, by our faith. I have...

There is a "shall be saved" in receiving baptism in Jesus' Name that will give absolute assurance where there was none before if anyone will just take the plunge.

Works of the flesh are what I would identify as sins; and we shall just leave it at that.

Romans 4:1-8 is Paul's teaching on GRACE.

I actually have the victory over sin with the knowledge that sometimes I would sin but that the Holy Spirit restrains me from doing so. There are times in all of our lives when we are tempted to do wrong; and this temptation comes from our own desire (James 1:14-16). 1Co 10:12, Wherefore let...

It is rendered dead but not eradicated from your system; while it is *as good as* eradicated in that 1 John 3:9 becomes the reality because it is rendered dead. It is repeated in the NT and that for a reason: because it helps us to understand NT theology. It does in fact preach NT theology.

In 1 John 2:27, we are told that the anointing teaches us to abide; and that is all I'm going to say about it.

In Romans 10:13, the word "shall" is used as terminology that indicates absoluteness. The same terminology is in Mark 16:16. While in John 3:16 the terminology is iffy with the word "should". So, whether you get baptized or call upon the name of the Lord or both...these will produce absolute...

Faith in Jesus produces works and a life of holiness... So if you are not living that kind of life, you ought to question whether you really have faith in Jesus. In Romans 11:20-22, we find that those who stay in the olive tree abide in His goodness...they continue in it. It is not that their...

Both (Romans 4:7-8, Titus 2:11-14). While the testimony is that, in that we cannot sin, we cannot do the things that we would (1 John 3:9, Galatians 5:17).

Things like that have been gone from my life for what seems like centuries.
