I think you should take into account the whole of what I said and not just single out the thing that you quoted. The movement from which I hail does not identify itself as a denomination.

Romans 4:7-8 gives us an important understanding...however in understanding it we must know that it only applies to the born again person, who has a love of righteousness and a hatred of sin...and therefore when it says that our sins are covered, it is referring to those things that develop as...

Paul the apostle turns it into a New Testament quote. When the born again believer sins, the Lord doesn't see that sin but He sees the blood and righteousness of Jesus Christ which covers him. Now I am not saying that if someone is born again, they will not have as their attitude a love of...

For liberal democrats it is a step-by-step process; they know that they cannot win with a blatant attack on what is morally right: but like the frog in the kettle, if they accomplish the demoralization of America little-by-little, they believe they can have what they want. I'm thankful that the...

So I am a sinner by nature but dead to the power of sin; because I have been pickled by the vinegar of the Holy Ghost so that the nature of the Holy Ghost is in me through and through; as a cucumber is changed into a pickle. My sin nature is in that I am a cucumber; but the cucumber nature is...

spirit (Titus 3:3-7) soul (1 Peter 1:22) and body (Romans 8:23 w/ Galatians 4:5-7; Hebrews 9:13-14) are sanctified wholly (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24) and thus perfected (Hebrews 10:14) when a person receives that second benefit (2 Corinthians 1:15).

Our sin is ever before us (Psalms 51:3). Therefore forgiveness of sins would have to refer to the future as well as the past and present; for I was not even born when Jesus died on the Cross; and therefore all of my sins were still in the future when that event took place. It is in my...

The adoption, the redemption of the body (Romans 8:23, Hebrews 9:13-14) is realized and past tense for the believer who is sanctified (Galatians 4:5-7, 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24, Hebrews 10:14; Ephesians 5:30-32 w/ 1 John 3:5; Philippians 3:21 w/ 1 John 4:1-3). God is light and in Him there is no...

What do you make of Romans 4:7-8? See 1 Peter 1:22.

I think that because the Lord is Omnipotent, sovereign, and loving (Revelation 19:6; 1 Corinthians 12:3; 1 john 4:8, 1 John 4:16), that He has to have preserved His word (the unadulterated message of the gospel/the whole counsel of God) in at least one translation of the Bible. I have heard...

Colossians 3:17 is of relevance to this discussion, if you are a pastor. And whatsoever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God even the Father by him. For baptizing new converts is something that you do in word and deed.

1 Peter 3:21 is preceded by 1 Peter 3:20; which makes it clear that the baptism that now saves us is immersion in water; for Noah and his crew were saved by water. See Ephesians 2:18--the Holy Spirit is a major part of our access to the Father. Our God is a God who heals the deaf and...

A slightly different meaning for the word mortify... I think it is a myth to say that one of the seven deadly sins is gluttony...I don't find it in the Bible anywhere, and I have an extensive regimen of reading it every day. Read Romans 7:7-13. The principle there is that the source of every...

So concerning a besetting sin in my life, the other day I was tempted to commit it, and also did commit it, because I was reminded of the doctrine that states that a man is saved through faith alone in Jesus Christ and not by his performance. If I resisted the temptation to commit my besetting...

Originally it was five messages; however the format would not allow more than 10,000 characters, so I had to break it up into two posts (the first containing three messages, and this second post containing two): A SURE FOUNDATION. Isaiah 28:9-13 says, Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom...

WHAT IT MEANS TO BELIEVE. Romans 8:13,聽For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. John 11:26-27,聽And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? She saith unto him, Yea, Lord, I...
