    Then to you I say what Paul said to certain other "Jews' in Acts 28:25-28 (if you will even read it). Arevoire.

    So what is the answer....taking freedom from the world? So it was in verse 9? :D So in grading on a curve, what grade does He give menstrual flow? Jesus Christ is God...in Him we live and move and have our being....so yes, we can't even lift a briefcase without Him. ...that stinks like...

    First off, God loves me more than you do. And He also loves you more than I love you...however He has placed within me a love for you that desires that you might be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. Secondly, my interpretation of John 8:24 (based in the kjv and a few other...

    I think that you are suggesting that I am not being led of the Holy Ghost...and I have to admit that I have been neglecting to pray every time I get on the internet that God would give me the words to say. So you may be right. Please pray that the Holy Spirit searches my heart.

    As harsh as that does sound....:eek:

    what's the point anymore

    I deal with the problem by making a distinction between "genuine bona fide believers with a living and saving faith" and the nominal, lukewarm, and/or shallow believer who may be merely a "pew-potato"

    For I acknowledge my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me. Psalms 51:3.

    Indeed @Miss Hepburn, Once you realize that your sin is ever before you and make up your mind that this is a fact of scripture, you don't have to dwell on your sins very much anymore unless the Holy Spirit specifically pinpoints something...because all your sins are forgiven; they are under the...

    Why do guys and gals care if i find God.

    Romans 5:5 says, And hope maketh not ashamed: because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given to us. I love you because Christ loved me first (1 John 4:19); and because I am forgiven much (Luke 7:36-50).

    Every man is my brother in Adam at the very least; and I treat all men as brothers in Adam for that reason (in the hopes that they might be born again into my family so that we might be brothers in Christ). Now in 1 Corinthians 13 it is written that love "rejoiceth not in iniquity, but...

    To not want to be identified as a Christian, impaho, is in essence a denial of Christ Himself. There may be exceptions to this rule.

    The term "Christian' was originally an insult leveled at believers in the church at Antioch. Jesus said that Christians themselves would be hated by the world, in John 15:18-25. The apostle John repeated the teaching in 1 John 3:13-15. If we are truly born again we will love other people who...

    If you prayed the prayer that I gave you to ask Him into your heart, then He came into your heart just like He said He would (Revelation 3:20, John 1:12, Colossians 1:27, Matthew 7:7-8, Luke 11:9-13); and you have indeed already found Him.

    I think you didn't read the post that has all of the quotes in it from a different thread (post #1443, page 73); as within it I think you will find the logical reasoning as to how and why these things can all be. Not the exalting of myself but the abasing of you. And 1 Corinthians 6:2-3 might...

    It might have better been rendered, Eternal Security of those who have genuine, bona fide, living and saving faith! Also, I know that I haven't condemned a soul; but have merely warned of the condemnation that will come to certain people if they die without a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ...

    @APAK, after skimming over what was in your commentary, I can't say I have any disagreements...although I did not look at it extensively but only briefly skimmed over the content. I would say this however...in 2 Corinthians 13:5 it is written, Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith...

    what's the point anymore

    Point taken...however, I would say to you that it is nothing that we would be called to argue over in contending for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. It is certainly something that is open for discussion; just don't get in a huff if someone disagrees with you over it...

    There is one Lord (Ephesians 4:5). No; the one Lord is the one God, as evidenced by the kjv's rendering of Mark 12:29 and Acts of the Apostles 4:24. I have an answer to this that I posted elsewhere. I will go and retrieve it for you and post it below. I believe that it answers this...
