Obedience is to obey the moral commandments that Jesus gave us in the Sermon on the Mount and in the Sermon on the Plain. What you have spoken of is merely salvational faith. On the tails side of the coin is salvational faith; on the heads side is obedience to the moral tenets of the gospel...

It seems clear, that @CharismaticLady's experience is that the Lord answers her prayers; while @gaviria.christian testifies that he does not have such an anointing as this. Not even Jesus, in His lifetime, raised people from out of being reduced to ashes. It is therefore the uttermost...

Do you? Why don't you pray that God raises your grandmother from the dead? Is she in a coffin?

I was not looking for a compliment; but an answer. I think that you have been beating around the bush.

@Stranger, And Romans 5:19 and 1 John 3:7 are to be taken together (while I still expect you to deal with 1 John 3:7 as the third of three verses that I have been giving to you to contemplate). In Romans 5:19, through the obedience of one many are made righteous. This is not only a declaration...

The verse in question (which you failed to reference in such a way as to gain easy access through the program) says that indeed, blessings come from obedience to the law, and cursings from disobedience. I would hardly call that a promise. It's funny how these upstarts tell experienced Bible...

Rom 3:20, Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. Rom 3:21, But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Rom 3:27, Where is boasting then? It is...

The reformers pointed to the fact that we are not to rely upon the teachings of men but to be Bereans (Acts of the Apostles 17:10-11) about every teaching that comes out of the church, testing it by the Bible.

However, the homosexual community (and those who agree with them) defines our understanding that homosexuality is a sin as bigotry. But certainly not according to the definition that you have given above, praise God!

Mar 16:16, He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Notice it does not say that "he who is baptized not shall be damned." Jhn 3:16, For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not...

You have apparently never paid any attention to what I teach on these boards.

@Stranger, And Romans 5:19 and 1 John 3:7 are to be taken together (while I still expect you to deal with 1 John 3:7 as the third of three verses that I have been giving to you to contemplate). In Romans 5:19, through the obedience of one many are made righteous. This is not only a declaration...

Okay, for the sake of continuing on, I will concede Matthew 5:6 and Romans 5:19. In the hopes that you will now expound for me 1 John 3:7 in light of Matthew 5:6 and Romans 5:19. Because of course you have still not answered these verses adequately to be able to defend your position that...

I beg to differ.

Legalism to the hilt. Trying to turn Christians into Jews, in fact. The apostle Paul fought against people like you to the hilt. You are what is called a Judaizer.

Then use the quote feature to do it, so that we can all go back to the quote in question and substantiate that it is an exact quote from me. What I was saying is that, the Protestants originated the concept that the Bible has authority over ex-cathedra statements and doctrines of the...

In Romans 7:6, it teaches us that we are not bound by the letter but will rather be obedient to the spirit of what the law requires. As such, I fulfill the command to wear a phylactery (tefilin?) in that I carry a pocket Bible and read it whenever I get the chance. The word is nigh me, in my...

Rom 5:19, For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. 1Jo 3:7, Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

The reality of the matter is that we are saved through simple faith in Jesus Christ and what He did for us on the Cross (Romans 3:25, Romans 5:1). We are forgiven through the blood of the Cross (Romans 5:9). As a result of being forgiven much, we love much (Luke 7:36-50, 1 John 4:19, Romans...

2Pe 3:13, Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
