    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    Which is a worse sin? To claim to be righteous based on one's own actions, or else to claim to be as righteous as God? A religious hypocrite will say that claiming to be righteous is the ultimate evil, whereas claiming to be as righteous as God is very good. How deceived can people be? To...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    Holy Spirit or indoctrination? What is the "form of godliness" (but never coming to the knowledge of the truth) that real followers are supposed to avoid? Well, a Pharisee knows to not drink, smoke, swear, chase women...etc And that is a basic view of doing what is right...but even here...

    Where do you see a process or instruction in holiness? I think you have drunk the kool-aid to the degree where you are backing up what I say and debunking your own indoctrination...thinking they back up what you believe...which of course is false. Your beliefs get in the way of faith.... and...

    Or....more truthfully... Jesus will say...why do you weep and gnash your teeth....did I not send my servants (including Epi) to warn you of my judgments? Then more weeping and gnashing of teeth will follow.

    There is no answer once you are dead. But you can seek the face of the Lord NOW and live in spiritual reality BEFORE you die. You can be translated into Zion....the kingdom of God...to walk in His light and power, doing what Jesus is doing.....walking as Jesus walked means that you have been...

    This is from your indoctrination. There is NO process of sanctification. One is either holy or not. Are you 25% holy or 50% holy? What believes are meant to grow into is righteousness, not holiness. Paul says that the scriptures are good for instruction (growing in) in righteousness. Have you...

    So then you are not concerned with "working out your own salvation with fear and trembling"? You prefer a smug self-assurance based on???? what exactly??? Jesus will reject many who call Him Lord. But you seem unconcerned. Would a concern or a proper fear of the Lord not mitigate the...

    I am sure that BEFORE I die I will walk in heaven with Jesus as I already have experienced. There is no heaven after you die. Heaven is meant to be entered into right NOW. NOW is the time of salvation. Now is the time to actually meet Jesus and walk with Him in HIS resurrection life. Too much...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    When men try to organize what only God can do, it opens the floodgates for the unregenerate and unrepentant to obliterate the standard of Christ as we have seen. It's to the point where even those who have been regenerated by the Spirit are fooled by the religious posturings that, in their...

    You have the audacity to contradict Jesus Himself in favour of your own religious scheme. But who has any discernment of the truth? :rolleyes:

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    In these perilous times that are few indeed who are able to rightly divide the word of truth. So many are confused about the role of God and the role of the believer...or what is based on holiness and what is based on righteousness. Instead what is presented is a hodge-podge of doctrinal twists...

    "EPI says PIck up yoUR OWN CROSS and dont worry about BELEIVING ON HE who was CRUCIFIED ON THE CROSS . FATAL MISTAKE right there ." And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. Matt. 10:38

    Isaiah 51:7 “Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear not the reproach of man, nor be dismayed at their revilings. 1 John 3:7 Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. Habakkuk 2:4...

    ...right...and which can also be seen as a sample of grace, since so many will fail the grace of God.

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    The religious game is your own. Because I didn't declare myself saved or righteous by a religious acceptance of the cross for self-preservation, you say that I can't be born again. When I testify to the power of God who called me and translated me into the higher kingdom walk...you think I'm...

    More twist and shout from the peanut stands. More bad attitude...more unruly behaviour. :rolleyes: The bible lays out 2 standards, levels or kinds of righteousness. More than one thing can be true at the same time. But one must suspect the motives of the person who can blatantly throw out a...

    Too many twists and turns here to track your thought process. But you seem to have missed the idea of biblical imputation of righteousness in favour of an evangelical 2-step that fully misunderstands what righteousness is. In the following verses we see God caught in the very act of imputing...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    The imputed righteousness is a human righteousness that we see in people like Abraham, or Phinehas who killed 2 people and it was counted (imputed) to him for righteousness. Jesus didn't come to kill anyone, but to give His life for many. So then imputed righteousness is an OT standard. I know...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 1

    Greetings. Happy to communicate with you. Imputed righteousness is God accepting the works or faith of what a human can do. Imparted righteousness is in the higher walk whereby we can walk under the COVERING power of God to walk in His strength and righteousness. Hence the lower walk and the...
