    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    The gifts of God are without repentance. I am taking the precious from the vile...the authentic from the pretensions.

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    You make it sound like being born again is the end of the race as opposed to the beginning of a race that few will run lawfully and to a good conclusion. Paul says, many run the race but one wins the prize. Paul was afraid of being disqualified by not running lawfully...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    My testimony is about justifying the Lord.. You hear me the way you are...justifying yourself without God's approval. More lies from you. I don't rebuke people for not being holy, I do so when people like yourself are dishonest. IOW a sin against righteousness (holiness sins are a whole other...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    You don't understand Paul. Paul is ONLY speaking of the miraculous walk in Zion...the kingdom realm. You think he is justifying sinful men to speak against Jesus and the other apostles. You think he is creating a new religion based only on using Jesus for one's own benefit rather than submitting...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    If you can read, look at how I'm treated for posting verses from he bible...from Jesus Himself...and that is seen as evil It is so easy to discern the evil but the blind can't see their own blindness. No logic, no faith. You remind me of a character in the "lord of the Rings" I think his name...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    I point out what Jesus said in three of the gospels...and what Peter said after inaugurating the Gentile believers into the church by the Holy Spirit...and you freak out. I think maybe you are very wrong in your assessment.

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    The young man was probably circumcised, or at least it was not an issue. Peter makes it plain that the standard of God is the same for all men on the righteousness level. Peter sees that God accepts ALL people who fear Him and work righteousness. God will judge the world in righteousness (not...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    Read the thread and respond to what I'm saying...hurt feelings aside. Be honest. Even to the point of swearing to your own hurt...just like we are admonished to do. Love the truth, embrace the truth. But start with an honesty that pleases God. So, what did Jesus say we must do in order to...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    The opposite is true. Holiness is not liberal theology where we embrace error and sing kumbaya. Not true. I see the blindness and dishonesty in many posters here. And these accuse me of what they do. I respond for the sake of any honest readers. I'm bringing light into a dark place. What...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    Pay attention in class. Jesus only charged the young man with the righteousness commandments to INHERIT life. You need to read more carefully with your own ideas aside. Listen to Jesus. Jesus did NOT charge the young man with the holy commandments in order to inherit life. You need more honesty...

    This is about knowing and obeying Jesus, Read the whole post.

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    It's no use. Dishonesty, once it is embraced as something a saved person has to do to "keep the faith", will persist even if the evidence is overwhelming, No, the iniquity will remain until death.

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    I think some here are getting nervous. Jesus said that His words are to abide in us....if we are to bear lasting fruit. I post what Jesus said and people get uncomfortable...they ignore and rail against His words. I ask, then who do you think you're following?

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    I can handle your mud slinging. Others read here, and it exposes the fallacies of those who oppose the truth of what I'm saying. Read carefully to understand if you can.

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    I uphold Jesus. You deny Him...and I can prove it right now...I can post the "wholesome" words of Jesus and you will rail against them. A certain young ruler came and asked Jesus DIRECTLY...what must I do to be saved...to INHERIT eternal life??? Jesus answered ....obey the commandments. Which...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    What you can take credit for is the logical fallacies you perpetrate about the bible. "I am not a nation"? That's it? That is how you ignore Jesus and the apostles?

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    Only a pretender would come to your conclusion. You are not understanding the bible narrative nor the gospel. Notice what Peter says after seeing God's acceptance of the Gentiles... “But in every nation he that fears him, and works righteousness, is accepted with him.” Acts 10:35 Now...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    If you were the judge, then yes...I could seen as speaking falsehoods...as long as the people accusing are believing a lie. Jesus was seen as sinful by those who hated Him. It is the way it is, among those who champion the flesh and the right to be sinful while judging others of what they are...

    Bible Study: The Gospel is in the Torah

    Actually it was Ecumenism that created the creeds that religious institutions post as their statements of faith. So it is fruit from the rotten tree...trying to turn Christianity into a religion ruled by men having certain dogmatic ideologies...but no life. Where is faith these days? Gone in...
