Great post @Brakelite I think our doubt is natural, especially about whether our prayers will be answered in the way we want. Again, as you wrote in previous post, provided we remain faithful. Sad that some suppose Jesus was tortured to death so we could sin with impunity.

You are confusing 2 things. Humble faith in Christ with confidence in his choice regarding you.

Not an answer to my question. That reveals a lot.

Hard to believe it was only discovered in modern times, not re-purposed over the centuries. Same here. Sad that a troll joined the thread but am grateful for your quip. My sentiments exactly!

Exposing the takeover. That Birmingham has been taken over. 2 different things. Britain has an evil government, acting against their own people. Very sad.

Are you trying to shield your flawed theology, half Gospel in "context," thereby dismissing God's word, which implies we shouldn't be too confident knowing there is a sin that no sacrifice covers? You can't believe what you typed as "there is a sin that no sacrifice covers" really has nothing...

I don’t know the details yet to form an opinion.

Very good!

Yea, the king of kings who rules with an iron rod, where every knee will bow, is not political at all ruling from God’s throne.

Good to hear from you. Nice verse to reference.

I have on this very thread several times. What is your explanation for people who are saved, sealed, have the spirit of Christ dwell in them but then sin?

NKJV translation 1 Peter 4:8 New Living Translation 8 Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins.

T his question reveals their circular reasoning. If you sin, then you were never saved or born again to begin with.

I already showed you the verse in Hebrews 10:26. Imagine a theology where both is true: there is a sin that no sacrifice covers AND there is hope in forgiveness and salvation. And that my friend, brings us to the OP. We have hope and faith, which is living with grace despite lacking certain...

Wrong by half. Did Jesus say his real brothers are: A. those no matter how they act; OR B. those who act a certain way (in compliance with the will of God the Father)?

You say you understand it but they show that you don't. All of our hopes are in Christ. See above. There appears to be a stronghold in disregarding your action of receiving the grace of God, the sin that not even Jesus sacrifice covers. You say you understand but continue to write of a half...

Brilliant. I've founded IDOLATRY in such doctrines, using coded words, which deny synonyms and other apt metaphors. Over-spiritualized people today want to believe in a feminized Jesus, where he is sugar and spice and everything nice. He came to save the world from sin, not be used as an IDOL...

Again, only half the Gospel. "Receive" is another verb, which cannot be thought of as one and done because Hebrews tells us another verb, action on our part, has no sacrifice to cover. Jesus does as he promised but we do not is not his failure.

Really side steps the question of our burden in keeping the faith, remaining in him, abiding in him. Burden on us on an ongoing basis is stated over and over again in different ways. Jesus acknowledge we are part of the Kingdom, a branch. However, if we do not produce fruit ... our fate is not...

Nope. Hope. Certainty in what action will be taken by another. Not the same. If you can't understand that, I feel sorry for you.
