@101G, What do you make of the following scripture? 2Jo 1:9, Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

Do you remember the context of our conversation (what I was saying that made you think of those verses)?

Link?

At least it wasn't true incest.

The thing about Romans 8:23, is that the adoption, the redemption of the body, is something that is indicated in past tense for the Galatians in Galatians 4:5-7. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 also speaks of the redemption of the body; as does Ephesians 5:30-32 w/ 1 John 3:5. Also of importance is...

And just what conversation was that thread in response to?

To be honest with you, the title of this thread didn't capture my interest. And I'm not sure where it was that I asked for this thread in @Zachary's mind. Finally came over here because he provided a link in one of the newer threads. I still don't know where it was that he thinks I was asking...

****bump****

Actually it was his stepmother.

I'm not sure what you are talking about...is this something that you think has happened with me? Did I ask you for some proof verses, and then you gave them in a separate thread, and I didn't acknowledge the new thread? If that is the case, I am sorry. You should have provided a link in the...

I don't think that I understand all that @ScottA wrote there; and neither do I want to expound upon it: but neither do I consider it to be identifiable as a parable.

We would all love to be armed and dangerous (to the devil)...so please share them with us.

Where did he come up with a parable? went right past me...

1 John 3:9 tells us clearly in the kjv; and also 1 John 3:6 w/ 1 John 2:17 (compare to Hebrews 10:14), That the practical outworking of sin will be eradicated from our lives if we are born again of the Holy Spirit. I know that I am not there yet; unless the Lord did the work in me this morning...

@Grailhunter, Why don't you tell us the reason why you switched from utilizing the kjv and moved over to the nasb when it came to relating certain scriptures (about why we cannot sin). Is it not because the case is more powerful in the kjv?

Now we abide by faith (alone): and because we abide, we bear good fruit. Gal 5:22, But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Gal 5:23, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Bearing the fruit of love means that the righteousness...

I would say, also, that our salvation, once we have obtained it by faith, is not maintained by works. It is by faith from beginning to end and all the way through (Romans 1:17, Colossians 2:6, Galatians 3:1-3).

I'm sorry but these appear to be the rantings and ravings of an unbeliever. Not saying that is what you are...just saying that your words make you sound like one. We will know a tree by its fruit... But I am certain that you have shown elsewhere that you have faith in Jesus; I seem to recall...

I don't see any problem between his scriptures and mine. And I do not see that there is anything that is a riddle to me here that I have not figured out. If you want to present a riddle to me based on the scriptures at hand, then lay it on me. As it is, I don't find that I am confused by...

Certainly, works are not required to make you a child of God... Rom 4:6, Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, However, a living faith will produce good works... Jas 2:14, What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man...
