    What is New Testament Holiness?

    human works...or human beliefs...all tricks that the canal mind plays on a potential disciple that short-circuit an actual connection to the living God..
  2. Episkopos

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    LOL. You put human beliefs even above the visitation of God. That in a nutshell is the sheer foolishness of your scheme. No fear of God, no humility, no respect whatsoever....just a self-interested dogmatism based on an ideology that contradicts the bible at every turn. But that's all you...

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    I suppose that people who have had no actual encounter with God, no visitation, no power, are forced to make up a religious way to have the salvation of Jesus. But to twist the words of the bible brings with it a heavy judgment. It's best to remain humble and accept being a guest...without all...

    Believing without seeing (Faith before experience)

    Make believe beliefs you mean. Real faith has power. Read the bible.

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    Superficial twisting of the words of the Bible....leaving out and adding in as you tailor your propagandist religious schemes. The curse of the law is through our inability without grace to fulfill it. But Jesus came to EMPOWER us to fulfill the law as He did. How? By grace through faith. You...

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    This is going to test your reading skills to the limit and even beyond what your mind can handle.... That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. In your religious scheme you have Jesus fulfilling the law for us... instead of...

    Believing without seeing (Faith before experience)

    Thankfully, not everyone here has drunk the kool-aid like you and your like. A few still receive sound doctrine. Your insistence on believing a lie, although popular at this time, and until Babylon is exposed and destroyed, has a time limit. Better to repent now.

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    You have God working against Himself. God makes a law....then He sends His Son so that we can ignore it? That's your religious scheme. The true gospel is about grace and the power to fulfill the law. Of ourselves, we are weak...and we have a sin nature that causes us to act out in the flesh...

    I do podcast videos to help people out of their lack of proper instruction. But you can't learn anything if you don't watch them... :rolleyes:

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    Here's the thing. Jesus says that we should take a low place...so that when the Master recognizes us He bids us to come up higher. But the one who takes the greater place....the higher place, if he is not meant to be there then he will suffer humiliation before all. In the parable of the...

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    There is a difference between assurance of salvation and assurance of glory. Can you discern the difference?

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    We can be forgiven when we repent. God is merciful. But the righteousness of Christ is only a covering for those who are crucified in the outer man and translated into the kingdom realm of the Spirit to walk as Jesus walked. How can we think that we bring Christ and His righteousness into our...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    You are not instructed correctly. The saint is abundantly saved. You forgot that. And you deny righteousness to the righteous. So you are running out of options with a good outcome. If you were a little bit wise...you wouldn't cut yourself off from the righteous. God loves the righteous...the...

    Believing without seeing (Faith before experience)

    Edification is for the inner man...the part of us that's created in God's image. The part of us that is regenerated at new birth. Condemnation is for the outer man...the part of us that seeks control over our own lives and the lives of others. The part of us that is bent with the sin nature.

    Believing without seeing (Faith before experience)

    I see humility is right. I see honesty as right. I see religious posturing as wrong. I see self-justification based on beliefs is wrong. There is a war within each person. The outer man of self-preservation...and an enslaved inner man. Jesus came to save the inner man by crucifying the...

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    Fine. you will be judged against the full standard of all who claim God's righteousness for themselves. Say hi to Paul for me. :oops:

    Comfortable for what part of us? For the inner man. Good! For the uncrucified aspirations of the carnal religious outer man? No.

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    You think you will be judged by looking at a pole? Or pointing to a cross? You have your self-preservational flesh in a religious quandary. All who looked at the pole survived that day, but perished anyway in the wilderness. You are untaught in anything beyond what a bible salesman might tell...

    What standard do you want to be judged against, the Bride of Christ, or the invited guests?

    That's what religious hucksters have taught you. You need to read the bible for yourself...while engaging your reading skills and a little thinking power. 5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. 12 And I saw the dead...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    LOL. You think you understand anything at any depth. Your system is simplistic in the extreme....and does not take into consideration such things as the bible, the truth, God and the reality of the gospel. It's not just what Christ did..but what Christ is DOING. You are not in a history class...
