Eyes on Christ I think is the key. We all are in a state of growing, so as long as we are growing in our hope, faith, love, and our relationship with Christ. I think sooner or later we will be established in our faith, as long as we stay wanting it. Blessings, Much love in Christ, Not me

True; Seeing how God alone is eternal, than only being changed by God can be considered an eternal change. Blessings, Much love in Christ, Not me

Hi, Scripture does say; “all things are possible to him that believes” But I think there is a great difference between believing with the head and believing with the heart. I think many people try to believe such and such with their heads and when it fails they get all discouraged. Not...

Just so you know, your personal relationship with Christ is showing. :) Blessings, Much love in Christ, Not me

To see the truth of the statement; ~I can do nothing with myself.~ To be brought to the place, where as plain as the heart that beats in your chest, to know and see this truth inwardly; ~I can’t make any real and lasting changes in me. Sooner or later with the right circumstances and...

Yes, If you check the above posts I made to ByGrace on this thread you will see how I tried to expand on the thought. I love it when the Holy Spirit teaches. Blessings, Much love in Christ, Not me

Excellent! That we might learn this truth by experience. Blessings, Much love in Christ, Not me

@marks I see no disagreement with your understanding of the definition of the “flesh” I think you are on point and correct. Which also in scripture would be the same as the “body of this death” or our physical bodies. Our fallen nature’s are the old “us” that was crucified with Christ. That...

Absolutely! It is the mind or the heart. It is the faith of the heart that grabs onto the truth of God and His promises. It is by faith we are saved through His gift of love to mankind, brought to mankind by the death and resurrection of His beloved Son and our Lord and Savior. So to the...

Good day, as I can tell from your writings your relationship with Christ is alive and growing well. So I can talk to you as one to whom that relationship is their all. As far as my statement that gave you pause; “the doing of righteousness is that that kills the old self” Scripture says to...

I appreciate the Christ I see in your response. Blessings, Much love in Christ, Not me

If I follow you; your asking if a man after he is saved still has a choice whether to serve Christ or self? Scripture gives this answer; “To whom you yield yourself to Him are you servants” This is written to regenerated man, so scripture does teach that man still has a choice on which master...

Hi, there’s a couple of questions here....if I understand them correctly? Does the new dwell in us with the old? Yes, the Divine Nature and the fallen nature are the choices set before man, they are both “within” the regenerated man. For if they are not in man, they would not have a claim to...

You are correct the “old man” is the “you” the “self” that was born in Adam. The body of sin is the body of flesh that has it’s passions and desires and is that thing beside your “will” that also demands obedience. There are two forces that can lead a person into sin their physical body and...

Hi; if you would allow me to be bold and speak a bit; The body of sin and our old man are two different things. The body of sin is that human body with it’s appetites, lusts and desires. The old man is the old us, that which Christ took to the cross with Him. The old man was crucified with...

Ephesians 4:24 (NASB) and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth. The doing of righteousness is that that kills the old self. For the old must die so the new can live. For as much as we were free from righteousness before we...
