"testament" and "covenant" are synonymous in holy scripture.

All I know is that it is clear to me. I suggest you read the passage (Matthew 13:55-56) for yourself and make up your own mind. Your interpretation my be colored by your bias; which is colored by the interpretation given by the Catholic Church and your belief that the Catholic interpretation...

My reply indicates that I was not contesting that the quotes were inaccurate or that these men of God didn't really say what you say they said.

Amen. To God be the glory!

Matthew 5:6 and Romans 5:19 are significant in that they speak of a righteousness that is imparted, in contrast to a righteousness that is imputed only. (1 John 3:7 also).

I understand, also, that false teaching has its appeal to those who are not yet born again. It is written, 1Jo 4:5, They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 1Jo 4:6, We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not...

Here are some scriptures for the reader to consider: 1Ti 6:3, If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 1Ti 6:4, He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and...

For 1 John 3:7 shows plainly that righteousness is not only imputed. Here, I will quote it again: 1Jo 3:7, Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. The verse shows clearly that we can be righteous, even as Jesus Christ is...

I think that from your perspective, there is a fourth pillar that exists that you have not yet succeeded at knocking down (as you have also not successfully knocked down the first three either, from your perspective of seeing the substantiations for my doctrine as pillars to be knocked down)...

Especially since the scriptures in question were never pillars in the first place; but rather they were strikes of the sword of the Spirit against your false doctrine that righteousness is imputed only (and not also imparted).

It is the job and goal of satan to attempt to knock down pillars of faith; which neither of you have succeeded at doing.

For I have said: The imputed righteousness of Christ (which you say I deny; but which I affirm) does indeed belong to the believer by declaration only. In imputing righteousness, or in justifying us (declaring us righteous), God calls those things which be not as though they are (Romans 4:17)...

You deceive yourself, @Stranger, if you think that you have won the argument.

I didn't hear any noise.

As it is written in the prophet Ezekiel, "Whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear."

I believe that the Lord has spoken to me recently and has said, "I have seen your ways, and will heal you." While He spoke this to me in my mind; this statement is also found in holy scripture (Isaiah 57:18).

I want to link to my testimony: My testimony (justbyfaith).

I accept the authority of the Old Testament; which tells us that if the prophecy of any prophet does not come to pass, you shall not fear him. I accept the authority of the church at large; if any prophet will judge that what I am saying is false or not of the Lord, then I am subject to him to...

These things had not yet happened; and so their significance was not explorable by those who would seek to understand the events that occurred with Christ. Paul and certain other apostles were called to explain the significance of the Cross after the fact. Before the Cross occurred, that...

I think, @Stranger, that I have already caught you in your own lie of saying that you do not believe something that you actually do believe. I think that the reader, in reading my "song and dance" concerning this, in previous posts, can see clearly that you believe that righteousness is...
