...again, more "deflection" : what happens to the person who has been forgiven but who does not forgive? Does the forgiveness remain or is it ultimately rescinded? And how did he get the forgiveness in the first place? By the righteousness of faith which says "blessed is the man whose sins God...

You've completely misunderstood and misrepresented me--not surprising, since we all see you also misunderstand Scripture.

Again, empty assertions--no substantiations of the claims. Good evening.

I've already told you (and I've learned you need to hear the same answers over and over and over and over) : the parable of the unforgiving servant shows that a person can be forgiven of all their sins, yet, afterward, because of their behavior (not forgiving), can have the forgiveness...

Your "answers" were all debunked--you're free to answer my answers.

Anyway, answer Matthew 18 (not Matthew 25 about "talents").

Please show me where you've addressed it. I remember you saying something about "talents", which is not Matthew 18, but Matthew 25. Try again.

You have a convenient theology that is nowhere reflected in Scripture. LOL

Can you answer Matthew 18 instead of slandering me for challenging you?

I would not subscribe to the distinction of the Catholics based on Romans 14 (our discussion), because ANY THING AT ALL that does not proceed from faith is sin and leads to the sinner's condemnation--no distinction between eating food or observing a day and murder or adultery.

There is an assertion that the dialogue is "strained", but there is no substantiation of the assertion.

1. Nope, I've never deflected. 2. I answered with precision--God's Law. I disagree : Christ says, explicitly, "So My heavenly Father will do TO YOU if you do not forgive". I take Christ at His Word, not just when it is convenient to my theology. This leads to greater understanding and the...

1. I have deflected nothing at all. 2. Quit "deflecting", to use your terms, and answer Matthew 18.

It's not "incorrect", because I never intended to indicate the condemnation had an "eternal sense", but that they are not justified in that moment (obviously, justification and condemnation are opposites), because justification is by God's righteousness by faith, which must be walked out...

Answer Matthew 18.

I've fully answered your questions. Answer Mathew 18.

The person who is not walking in faith is not walking in the Spirit thus they are entangled and not free to do as they wish--ie, they are sinning, they are enslaved, and are "condemned".

Sorry that you're (intentionally?) misunderstanding me. The rule is "each man must be fully convinced in his own mind"--infracting that Law of Faith is sin. Sin, separately (but congruently) is defined as "slavery". "Slavery" means "not free". The desires of the flesh are against the spirit so...

No, before the parable, Peter asks how many times he should forgive, and, after telling the parable, Christ says "So My heavenly Father will do TO YOU if you do not forgive", and this parable is part of the teaching which Christ commands His Apostles to disciple the nations according to, so...

If I have a lifestyle of not agreeing with my own thoughts, that is called slavery, not freedom-- Galatians 5 17For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you...
