    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    No, you tend to contradict yourself, and don't know it till it is presented to you. No wonder then you contradict yourself. Where did I indicate that (1 John 3:7) is just imputed righteousness. It is your statement. I am calling you on it. Can't you answer it. If you are wrong in...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    You contradict yourself once again. You think you missed the post. Then admit you cherry picked out of the post. And yet you howl about how I refuse to address (1 John 3:7). Rest assured we do not agree. Why say, 'unless the context says something different'? Do you not remember the...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    In post #(343) your first pillar, (Rom. 5:19) fell. To which you just basically said in (346) you are not going to believe it. Just like what you have just said concerning the Mosaic Law, in your refusal to answer the question. You are not going to believe it is all Law. Thus fell pillar...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    Because you believe the Law of Moses is not all Law, there is no reason to pursue this any more. You have forced yourself into a corner you cannot get out of. You must say the Law of Moses is not all Law because you use law and legalism against the believer. Because what you are saying is...

    Founding Fathers = Christians or...?

    Good to talk to you. In your time you were part of the school system that still operated on Christian beliefs. That has long since been cast aside. This is why there is the great movement today to rewrite history. To write it in light of secular atheism. To remark on your last paragraph...

    Was Noah “saved by grace through faith”?

    That is one of the most stupid statements I have ever heard. You say, "Because ones obedience will not be perfect, therefore one is an unprofitable servant and in need of grace." What a severity of law. I require your obedience. But, your obedience is not enough because I don't even like...

    Was Noah “saved by grace through faith”?

    I already showed you where being washed does not pertain to baptism. See post #(191)and (Titus 3:5) (Eph. 5:26). All of which is perfectly illustrated in (John 13:6-10). Which you ignore. Just because several acts of salvation are described in one sentence as being accomplished in the name...

    Was Noah “saved by grace through faith”?

    How Abraham understood it is immaterial. That Christ is there is clear from (Gal. 3:16). The seed promise is the same whether in (Gen. 15) or (Gen. 22). The point being, God used a point in time of Abraham's faith, when he could do nothing but believe. And, the Seed promise always had...

    Was Noah “saved by grace through faith”?

    So, do you disagree with my post #(71)? Stranger

    Founding Fathers = Christians or...?

    Yes, the U.S. was established as a Bible believing Christian nation. You must first go back to the beginning, not 1776. The founding of the New World coincided with the Reformation movements in Europe. In this you can see that God was providing a place for Protestants to go, where they could...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    Your refusal to admit that the Sermon on the Mount is all law, has led you to the place where you now deny the Mosaic Law is all law. And has revealed that you will take it so far as to say the believer under the New Testament is under law. Which is what you actually believe anyway. When...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    What a foolish answer. The promises make up the statement of law. They are not separate from the law. The blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience all are part of the Law. They are not separate from the Law. (Ex. 19:5), "If ye will obey my voice, then shall ye be a peculiar...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    Just because a promise is attached does not mean it isn't law. As I showed you in (Josh 8:34) "And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings...." But here are more. (Ex. 19:5) The law---"if ye will obey my voice" The promise---"then ye shall be a peculiar...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    Nice speech. Is the Sermon on the Mount nothing but Law? Stranger

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    What a forked tongue. You will concede (Matt. 5:6) and (Rom. 5;19). You then say I have not been able to defend my position and have not answered the verses adequately. I have showed you through (Rom. 5:19) and (Matt. 5:6) that you use these verses wrongfully. Thus two pillars of your...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    I just showed you. (Josh. 8:34) You like to 'beg to differ'. You like to 'contend'. But you never have any basis. Scripture is against you. So, because you base your 'no' on the wrong assumption, your 'no' is an invalid answer. Again, is the Sermon on the Mount nothing but Law? Please...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    Containing a promise does not make it of grace. The law presents promises. (Josh. 8:34) What now? Is the Sermon on the Mount nothing but Law? Yes, Law is to be obeyed. That is it's nature. And your righteousness is revealed by it. (Philippians 3:9) "mine own righteousness, which is of...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    Because you have a sense where it is not yours but it is yours, then you admit that the righteousness imputed to you is yours. And, that you do not agree with Paul who says his own righteousness is of the law. In other words, you are not willing to say with Paul, that your imputed...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    As, I said, you do not want to say the imputed righteousness of Christ is not your own. When you say, 'in this sense', there is the other sense where you say it is yours. Paul say's in (Philippians 3:9) that your own is of the law. You have imputed righteousness, and you have your own which...

    Why do so many oppose imputed righteousness?

    You have answered the second question. You are not willing to say imputed righteousness is not your own, as Paul says in (Philippians 3:9). As I knew you would not. The first question remains. Is the Sermon on the Mount nothing but Law? Again, no need to go to your third pillar, (1 John...
