Mat 24:23, Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. Mat 24:24, For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Mat 24:25, Behold, I...

Romans 7:6 tells us of yet another perspective, the law of the letter versus the spirit of the law. The spirit of the law is the only thing that we can be perfectly obedient to. The letter is impossible to keep, Galatians 3:22, Galatians 6:13. It seems that there is poison hidden in your...

Yes, this is true. There is a living and saving faith; and there is a nominal, lukewarm, and shallow faith that will not save anyone: in the latter the person may endure for a season but will in time of temptation fall away (Luke 8:13). Living and saving faith is a heart faith that produces...

Those who believe in Christ are in Christ. And Christ is God.

It was asked previously that we might name one person other than Jesus who was wholly sanctified in this life. I submit to you Samuel as a candidate: 1Sa 12:1, And Samuel said unto all Israel, Behold, I have hearkened unto your voice in all that ye said unto me, and have made a king over you...

I confess that while frequenting a different message board, when Robin Williams died, I posted a post saying that I thought that he didn't make it to heaven. The Lord would have me retract that post. It is written in Luke 6:37 that if we condemn not, we shall not be condemned. I confess to...

Romans 3:10-18 is qualified by Romans 3:19 and Romans 6:14; as it is what the law says about those who are under it. Therefore those who are not under the law are not defined by Romans 3:10-18. Revelation 19:8 tells us that the righteousness of saints is identified as fine linen, clean and...

The only circumcision or uncircumcision is circumcision or uncircumcision of heart, see Romans 2:28-29. And therefore those who are circumcised by this definition, according to Galatians 5:3-4, are debtors to do the whole law. Those who are not under the law (Romans 5:19; Romans 6:14); or...

There are many who in the last days will be walking according to their own lusts, and will be asking the question, "Where is the promise of His coming? For everything continues as it has always been from the beginning of creation!" But note that such people are motivated by their desire to...

And "mature and complete" means "perfect." :cool: If you look at 1 John 3:6 and compare it to 1 John 2:17, I think that you will see that those who abide in Christ do not presently sin; and that it is also possible to abide for ever. There are many saints who have obtained the second...

Being circumcised of heart (Romans 2:28-29) is something that will put you under the law, so that you are a debtor to obey the whole law (Galatians 5:3-4). To be uncircumcised of heart means that you are not under the law and that Romans 3:10-18 does not apply to you, Romans 3:19. What I am...

I'm using the computer at my doctor's office and may not be able to respond for a while. But I thought I would throw in my two cents for the moment.

Also, Romans 8:23 speaks of the redemption of the body; and I believe, based on Galatians 4:5-7, that this is obtainable in this life. The redemption of the body is defined as the adoption; and this is said to have already been accomplished in the above passage. Also, we can be sanctified to...

In Philippians 3:15 it is written that as many as are perfect shall have a certain attitude, in context, that they will believe that they have not yet apprehended or were already made perfect. But it should be clear that even though they have this attitude, the Bible defines them as being...

Rom 8:23, And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. Rom 8:24, For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why...

Yes, one God; and you would do well to believe that (James 2:19). The Father inhabiteth eternity while the Son is on earth. The Spirit of Jesus is the Father. The Son is distinct from the Father in that He dwells in human flesh. Same Spirit, though, that inhabits eternity and also dwells in...

What is the surah # for that?

Still not seeing it. Try to make it clearer. Right now I am going to unplug my computer and take it to our motel room. So forgive me if I don't reply for a while.

Those who believe this statement will, most assuredly, die in their sins (John 8:24).
