Efez 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. Where does Paul in Efez 2:10 states that those created in Christ Jesus are without sin ??? Nowhere. Tut tut tut....

OSAS finds its root in the teachings of John Calvin.

And yet Moses and Elijah were pretty much alive during the transfiguration. Difficult....

Makes me wonder how the discussion would go if the guy was a hetero church going individual.

Wow Epi, your post is mind blowing. I don't find it appropriate at the moment to respond on some of the things you said, maybe later, for now now let me just say that I am happy you found healing.

Well said, Romans 14 in a nutshell :gd

I remember this Epi from the old 2004 forum. You fell very hard. I wonder if you are fully recovered from it. Instead of accepting you are just a man in need for forgiveness like anyone else you are now trying to get back to the 2.5 years of total victory over sin? How did that work out? How...

AI-overzicht The phrase "Once Saved, Always Saved" (OSAS) originated with the teachings of John Calvin in the 16th century and the Synod of Dort, though some theological viewpoints trace the ideas back to Augustine of Hippo. The doctrine asserts that salvation, once genuinely received, can...

Efez 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Oh, I remember so well, even though it is 50 years ago, how scaring it was to jump into the unknown deep. The idea to quit with things I liked and to do things I did not like, such as getting up early and going to church on sunday morning 10:00 were always a big obstacle. But I jumped anyway...

Well, the words you haven spoken to me in this thread are in direct opposition to what you preach. You preach holiness, sinless perfection, humbleness, a superior walk in Christ to the rest of us. Your answers to me were not humble, when your opinions are challenged, you become nasty and...

Same old Epi (aka mister holy), full of judgement. We are done. Be well.

Female, a man doesn't use a doll in his avatar. sml

Reminds me of : Efez 2:4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, Efez 2:5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ— by grace you have been saved— Efez 2:6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly...

Ha ha, rodeo.

Instead of introducing new phrases not mentioned in the Scriptures I prefer Scripture itself as for instance pointed out in Romans 8, the chapter of walking in the Spirit. Rom 8:5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according...

Something changed @Aunty Jane, what happened the moment when Jesus said "It is Finished" and died ? 1. Luke 23:43 And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.” (just hours before He died). 2. Matt 27:50 And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded...

You don't seriously think that when you die you end up at Abraham bosom ?

My take is that @Hiddenthings is right, from a previous post on the issue - ---- First of all I read in context, the whole chapter 16, verse 1 starts with The Parable of the Dishonest Manager, the parable ends with - Luk 16:13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one...

I got my second blessing, it changed my walk in Christ into holiness, so I know what you are talking about. But it never was into Zion or about sinless perfection, it was about total obedience. You are creating new words, walking in Zion, holiness sins, higher walk, more ? If it is meant to...
