    Galatians 5

    I do know what it is that I have already discovered in the holy scriptures; and if someone presents an idea that is contrary to the concepts that I have found, of course they will have to show how their idea coincides with the scriptures that I am thinking of. If you consider me to be...

    Galatians 5

    Not really....I am always open to any new information that anyone might have to offer.

    Galatians 5

    The riddle is very simply figured out, if anyone would re-read the following posts (re-quoted for you here):

    Galatians 5

    Do you think that because I failed to mention Galatians 5:16-21 in a post that was in response to a post that mentioned it, that that makes me guilty of not having studied all of God's word; or that it makes me guilty of not taking Galatians 5:16-21 into account?

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    When I coined the term "signature stamp" by no means was I referring to the Son being incarnated. I was referring to the fact that God does not vacate eternity when He descends to become the Son. In going forward He also stays behind; for that it it impossible for an eternal being to cease to...

    Galatians 5

    There is a plethora of scriptures that you have omitted from the conversation. In quoting Galatians 5:16-21, you have omitted every other scripture in the Bible. You have certainly not quoted Matthew 7:21-23; and therefore you have omitted that scripture from the equation. You have certainly...

    Galatians 5

    If I do not mention Galatians 5:16-21 in a post, all of a sudden I am a false teacher? This is ludicrous. I could apply the same principle to Matthew 7:21-23, and call you a false teacher for that you didn't quote it in your post.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Jesus was/is equal to the Father, John 5:18. In His Deity. In His humanity, the Father is greater.

    Galatians 5

    I make it my normal practice to read through all of the epistles (Romans - Jude) within the course of a week, every week.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    The term "signature imprint" is only used to help you understand how God can stay behind while also going forward. Of course God continues to inhabit eternity (He cannot cease to exist out of eternity) when He steps forward to take on human nature, in becoming His Son.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Because God inhabited eternity before descending, He cannot cease to inhabit eternity in the descending. It is the nature of inhabiting eternity, that there would be a "signature imprint" of you if you ever ceased to inhabit eternity...because really, it is impossible for someone who inhabits...

    Galatians 5

    You are acting like Galatians 5:16-21 is the only thing that was ever written in the holy scriptures. So what if I omitted that passage? You omitted Matthew 7:21-23 (for example), as well as everything else in the Bible apart from Galatians 5:16-21! You do not understand what Paul taught and...

    Galatians 5

    From the verses in the two posts above, I conclude that the law no longer has the power to condemn us from the outside, but it governs us from the inside; if we believe in Jesus Christ and have received Him as our Lord and Saviour.

    Galatians 5

    I would say that the above verses (which speak of the taking away of our condemnation because of the law) only apply to those who have been given the love of the Lord, in whose hearts and minds the law of the Lord has been written: [Rom 5:5 KJV] 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love...

    Galatians 5

    Think about how the following verses apply to each other: [Rom 6:14 KJV] 14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. [Rom 7:4, 6 KJV] 4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    I would contend that the Son existed in the beginning alongside of the Father. And yet, for the perspective of our understanding, it is God the Father alone who existed in the beginning and throughout eternity. God the Father is the self-existent, first cause of everything. Now the Father...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    What I am saying by that is that it is unpardonable to speak against the Spirit; but it is not unpardonable to speak against the Son. But these are one and the same, exactly the same Person? Please explain how this can be.

    What is the difference between vengeance and justice?

    I believe that the Lord Jesus calls us to forgive other people, even when, and especially when, the person you are hurting is me.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    If the Son of man is spirit then is He not the Holy Spirit? It would then be the unpardonable sin to speak against the Son of man. My understanding is that the Son of man is flesh; that he is the Son of, man, he was born of man, flesh; for, that which is born of the flesh is flesh. And...
