    The Glory

    When you "got saved", what was your prayer? In your prayer did you declare, as David did, that your sin was ever before you? When you prayed it, did it suddenly become untrue in your life? Why would God set that forth as the right thing to pray as a penitent sinner and then turn that prayer...

    The Glory

    Looking at that, the scripture (in context) is Romans 6:10-11. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. We are to reckon ourselves to...

    The Dragon, Origination of Demons, What Transgression of Satan Was, and the Story of Fallen Angels

    The "entire exchange", as far as I can see it, was: It seems to me like they were being a little (tiny) bit rude to him from what I can see. Unless there is more to the "exchange" in other threads...

    Psalms 51:6, Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.

    The Glory

    You are lying to yourself. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us (1 John 1:8). For I acknowledge my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me (Psalms 51:3). For all have sinned, and come short (present tense) of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). For...

    The Glory

    Hi @1stCenturyLady, I am not telling myself that 1 John 1:8 means anything. (you do not remember me, do you?) I believe that 1 John 3:9 definitely means that we are new creatures in Christ: the old has passed away; behold, all things are become new! Our direction that we are walking in as...

    The Glory

    Hello @1stCenturyLady, I was merely trying to convince you of an essential understanding, that none of us is without sin (1 John 1:8). If you do not have this understanding it is because you are deceiving yourself and the truth is not in you (1 John 1:8). This is not an attempt to turn the...

    The Dragon, Origination of Demons, What Transgression of Satan Was, and the Story of Fallen Angels

    The blog didn't really keep my interest either...because I'm not sure it lines up perfectly with biblical doctrine...and I don't want to be deceived by extra-biblical material.

    The Dragon, Origination of Demons, What Transgression of Satan Was, and the Story of Fallen Angels

    Jesus called His own mother, "Woman..." (John 2:4). Would you have sought to break some of Jesus' teeth in witnessing that event in scripture? In those days, to most people around Him, it was not known to them that He was the Son of God. So you can't use the excuse that you wouldn't have...

    Did that shut you up, or do you have anything to say about the above two posts? To @1stCenturyLady.

    The Glory

    See also Galatians 3:22. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. Are you not a part of all here? Galatians 6:13 also: For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law: but desire to have you...

    The Glory

    In 1 John 1:8, who is the author of that verse? An unbeliever before he came to Christ? What does the author mean by "we"? Unbelievers? In Romans 3:23, in what tense do all come short of the glory of God? Only past tense? or is it saying that all come short of the glory of God in the...

    The Glory

    @1stCenturyLady, Your sin is ever before you (1 John 1:8, Romans 3:23, Psalms 51:3). If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. For all have sinned, and come short (present tense) of the glory of God. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is...

    Justification from a different angle

    Romans 4:5 tells me that my identity in Christ is that I am righteous before Him...even when I blow it! So now that I have this identity that I am the righteousness of God in Him...the only true and faithful response to this is to live according to my new identity in Christ! The fact that He...

    Wet Paint Principle (Freedom)

    I don't understand what you mean by this. Was there a person posting here with the moniker of TheHolyBookEnds? I'm not sure who you are talking to... In fact, I suggest to anyone who wants to be edified by the document that they print it out and read it over from time to time, until they...

    Wet Paint Principle (Freedom)

    3 1 It is clear that our Lord sprang out of the tribe of Judah, of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood; and therefore in order to be High Priest, as He is High Priest, Jesus must be High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek. 2 And the priesthood being changed from...

    2 1 God sees me as perfect and I am growing up into the finished product seen by the Lord—I am growing up into the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. 2 And in my heart I am already perfected because there He has placed the fullness of His love. 3 I am righteous in His sight...
