I know you know that our body is not replaced now, so what do you believe is happening now for us to be free from sin? It is our spirit and soul that is born again now. They are the new man. When God's people, when just the Jews, were living under the Law of Moses, they had a fully functioning...

You are mistaken about what I believe. It is not the body of skin and bone that holds sin, but the inner unseen self of spirit and conscience. It is the inner self that MUST be born again of the Spirit. Once born again we are free from sin and full of the Spirit. It is the Spirit in our...

I can't see how you can think verses 5-6 are not talking about being free of the carnal sin nature that Paul refers to as "the flesh." Which includes himself, and why his conscience is clear. 5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our...

Good, so you see too that the publishers made an error in Galatians 5:17 when it says," NKJV 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. The 's' in Spirit should be small...

Scott, what I'm talking about is 1 Thes. 5:23. 23 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. This was my process of elimination: What I know is the old man is our sin nature...

What the publisher's error shows us is that out of the spirit and soul, we find from Romans 7:25 about the mind, and comparing with Galatians 17 with the corrected spelling of 'Spirit' as 'spirit' that it is our mind that is our spirit. That leaves our soul as our heart and conscience. These...

I'm repeating here what I said before about Galatians 5:17. I found a publisher's error in it. Have you never been confounded by verse 17? I was for it didn't make sense in light of Romans 8:9, so I prayed and asked God what He is trying to say as it seems we have both the flesh AND the Spirit...

You may have been having the same problem I ended up having. I couldn't fix mine, so just gave up. Go back I look at the texts you gave and then at the verses you quoted. They don't go together. What were those texts? Additional verses for us to look up? I don't know, but if you start over and...

9But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11But if the Spirit of him...

I know I am saved. And, yes, it is Jesus who keeps me saved, BECAUSE I abide in Him. If you think you can do whatever you want and Jesus keeps you saved when you don't abide in Him, you are kidding yourself. In other words you are so completely filled with hate towards me you are completely...

Except, no one taught me this. Or any of the doctrines of God the church doesn't seem to know, except one. I found out about them when a missionary friend told me she doesn't understand what I teach, (she was raised Lutheran), but she receives pamphlets from a church in Texas and she doesn't...

@Behold What do you think what I underlined means? 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage. 20 For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of...

Thank you for sharing the actual words.

Do you know that not everyone who goes to church every week are actually saved? Why is there a difference when both groups, saved and unsaved, all believe in Jesus? What would you tell them? What would you tell those who believe in Jesus, but are not born again? Or would you tell them they are...

I prefer writing out the Scriptures for all the readers, unless you want what you say to be passed up and ignored. Here is what you should have done. Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, 2 by which also you...

Galatians 5:19-21. 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of...

Yes, faith is important, but you didn't explain why Paul wrote "from faith to faith." Our mind is our spirit and thus IS what would be born again, along with our heart. We are made up of spirit, soul and body, 1 Thes. 5:23, and everything in the spiritual inside of us is what MUST be born again...

That would be willfully going against your new nature. Jesus made it easy to continue on the path of righteousness. It would be like Adam going against God on purpose, which is what he did because he knew that Eve had already eaten. Though he didn't know what would happen, he chose his companion...

Believe it or not it is tricky. I went to a very legalistic church for the first 30 years of my life, but still sin had a stranglehold on me, and not one prayer was ever answered. You see, I was having an affair with a married man. Peter says to Repent...and you will have the gift of the Holy...

Unfortunately, there is not a denomination on earth that holds to what I believe, and the true gospel is so simple. Jesus does it all. We can not take credit for anything, even our "keeping ourselves" is because of the extreme love I have for Jesus as a Husband. Isa. 54:5. (rhema back in the...
