    love your enemy?

    I think Jesus' teaching is that our worst enemy is also our neighbor.

    love your enemy?

    1Pe 3:13, And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? 1Pe 3:14, But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;

    What's the difference between true grace and counterfeit?

    Just to bring into consideration, I would ask how the following verse applies to these concepts: Gal 3:22, But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. It seems to me to be saying that all are under sin (even the...

    Textual Discrepancies In Colossians 2:18

    I think that both of them taken together ought to be considered. So that it should be rendered thus: Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not (really) seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind. In...

    Halloween Street Preaching

    You have to understand what words mean in their context. The context of Romans 3:10 (Romans 3:9,19) bears out that Romans 3:10-18 is what the law says about those who are under it; even of Jew and Gentile. There is another people group, the church of God; and they are not under the law. But...

    ...being justified by grace...

    As soon as someone who is truly born again becomes aware of the doctrine that unless they believe that Jesus is the great I AM, they will die in their sins, they will believe that Jesus is the great I AM. For the fear of the LORD is never absent from the heart of one who is truly born again.

    Halloween Street Preaching

    If you are going to trample over my pearls and turn again and rend me, then I think that I am biblically justified in saying that this conversation is over (Matthew 7:6).

    From Nut to Minister

    Sng 6:11, I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded.

    Halloween Street Preaching

    Then you haven't studied it out long enough. 1Co 1:21, For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. We do what we do because of who we are. But you're not a murderer because you murdered...

    And in the same context, that in Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

    ...being justified by grace...

    In Colossians it tells us that we are complete in Him. If we can obtain that promise, our walk will be much tighter.

    I won't disagree with you there, the way you put that.

    ...being justified by grace...

    Again, see John 5:24. It says that if we hear Jesus' words and believe on Him who sent Him, we shall not come into condemnation but have passed from death into everlasting life. My understanding of life that is everlasting is that it will never come to an end.

    ...being justified by grace...

    You're saying that it is an error that I said that Jesus is God in the flesh? Jesus said that if you really believe that, you will die in your sins.

    ...being justified by grace...

    I disagree. See John 5:24. Humility is an accurate perception of yourself and includes understanding the promises of the Lord to you so that your security does not rest in your own righteousness but Christ's/God's.

    See John 15:5.
