I believe we are progressively freed from the power of sin (Romans 6:15–23). We have been freed from the penalty of sin but are not immune to it. Sin lives in our flesh...sometimes it seems as though we can take 3 steps forward and 2 steps back...we fall but it is the getting back up that...

IMHO, in a nutshell, all sin is disobedience. When we know to do right yet, ignore it...it is sin. Jesus said that all the Law and Prophets hang on the two He gave us...my take is that if we are fulfilling those two, then the rest fall in line and we will not break them?

Unfortunately, Dave L. left this forum last year. He was my favorite Calvinist on here...he was kind and did not come back with nasty, snarky self-righteous remarks. I miss him.

" I think the crux of your point is going to be "why is body and soul mentioned separately if they are one and the same .."?" <---Yes, you are correct, this would have been my next question, lol.

last night, I watched your first video and then, reading Matthew this morning, when I came upon Matthew 10:28 , I see that the soul and the body are separate: "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body...

Just curious here, is there something sinful about my post to which you replied: "Forgive her, Lord Jesus! (1 John 5:16)." ?

Amen my sister! This can be comforting because human nature always expects "more" than enough...it is of course, impossible to meet His standard which is perfection. But, through Christ, we are redeemed! And, we must come to grips with the fact that this spiritual fight between the flesh and...

So true abut the mega Church's. And seeing that Jesus said they thought they were "rich" and had need of nothing...commerce, lot's of money to be made.

Agreed!!! I too liken abiding in Him to walking in the Spirit. To me, it's a surrendering each day and, when we continually do it, one day we will see that many of our sins and years long habits have been shed like, for instance...I used to be a crazy driver, getting hot under the collar when...

Several years back , I heard a teaching on these cold and hot water outlets. Was not sure what to make of it and, what you posted above is the only other time I heard of this. Allot to be learned from this.

Well, after all...He is a rewarder of those who DILIGENTLY seek Him :)

Cool and easy to read chart Willie. Do you see these 7 Church's as Church "ages"? I kind of do because of the Laodicean's being so luke warm...and that sure does seem to be prevalent in today's Church.

Oh, thanks :) Seems we wrestle allot with God! I don't think there are many days that go by where I do NOT wrestle with Him...thinking I'm not enough, not nearly as I should be. I got so angry with myself the other day that I actually took His name in vain. And, of course that only made...

Good to see you Jen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why blown away?

“And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself.” John 12:32

Lol Helen, I wonder where the Eskimos came from??

A big AMEN to that!

Yes, I too was a "rapture" gal for years until I truly started to study and opened myself to the Holy Spirit's guidance. Also, I read allot, listen to many views. Also read The : Late Great Planet Earth in the 70's...as my mom read it and was bowled over by it. So many false teachers out...

For me, it would be several re-readings, lol...good stuff.

Yes, for sure! They are sitting pretty, thinking they will be whisked away during these times, they are not growing their faith and, I can see many falling away because of this doctrine...not to mention those (un believers) who hear them say this stuff and when they find out that no rapture...
