    What is the Whole Armour of God?

    It is precisely your religious ego that is in the way of looking beyond what is above and beyond your own personal experience. Of course you will turn that on me. The evangelical church has been watering down the entrance requirement into the church for generations now...to the point where...

    What is the Whole Armour of God?

    Where do you find the name of Jesus in Isaiah 53 O unbelieving one?

    What is the Whole Armour of God?

    You have the same blindness to the truth in the NT concerning Christ as the Jews have to Christ in the OT. Christians will see Jesus plainly described in the OT as they are able to read the words of prophecy..and PIECE together the narrative, like a puzzle, to form a bigger picture. Or maybe...

    What is the Whole Armour of God?

    More straining out gnats and swallowing camels, I see. I think you need to put your thinking cap on.

    What is the Whole Armour of God?

    At least have the common sense to do a bible search before demonstrating such a basic lack of bible knowledge. And such unbelief. Thanks in advance. "The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light." Rom. 13:12...

    What is the Whole Armour of God?

    What does Paul mean when He says to put on the whole armour of God? The armour of light? In our modern superficial church culture the power of the walk in the New Covenant is unknown, having been reduced to a human philosophy of name it, and claim it, that does not give us the power to walk as...

    What is Revival?

    Such religiosity. Are you not just putting us on with all the psycho-babble you have learned to repeat from your indoctrination? You are taking real things and then adding on (or putting on) your carnal layer of interpretation to name and claim what you have no idea about. Your "mind of...

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    And a lot of bible twisting by unlearned and unstable souls who follow man-made religious traditions that support an egotistical lifestyle, even as it seeks to self-justify through a religious delusion for the rich and spoiled.

    At what age are we to condemn people of other religions to hell?

    So then whoever is born in another religion and/or who obeys their parents is doomed to hell? Do tell?

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    We must be able to consider the crows and pawns in every situation... :rolleyes:

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Is. 51:11 "Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away." In the above verse we see that the redeemed of the Lord repent (yeshouvoun) to...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Exactly. Or like the food samples in a supermarket. "Taste and see that the Lord is good." What we are given is a "portion"...not a fulness. Do some research...study...look up the word "aravon." The initial grace is a sample...an "earnest of the Spirit". A downpayment until the proper...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Many point the finger and speak vanity...saying...look to the cross. These try to take away the conviction of the Spirit by trying to redirect their own sinful behaviour onto Jesus. These want to keep Jesus on the cross to be their personal clean-up person. Paul gloried in the cross..not as an...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    The yoke of Christ is to bear His reproach...to be hated by carnally religious "saved" people because you are holding out the truth which is a call to faith. But that yoke is made easy in that we know that if we suffer the reproach of Christ...then we will also be rewarded by Him personally. So...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Amen. That yoke of bondage is the outer man. We are to carry our own cross (the outer man)...NOT having confidence in the flesh or carnal reasoning (as so many do here). ...until we are crucified DEAD in the outer man to walk then with a newfound freedom in the Spirit being empowered in the...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    What most believers don't realize is that we are all in a race of faith. In a race are both winners and losers. Out of the SAME LUMP are vessels of both honour AND dishonour. We see the dishonourable in full bloom here. Most have been taught to revel in being "saved". So MUCH emphasis is put on...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    The gospel is about the power to free people from the bondage to sin. Jesus came to set the captives free. If you have not known that power...then you have not known Christ and are not yet born again. Grace is the power of God us-ward who believe. But God is the one that decides who is raised...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Yeah...nothing real like that. Like actually being born in a heavenly place or anything. Just a religious decision that your sins are forgiven...because its the word and the word is never wrong.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Yes, I'm saying that in your obsession to be saved you have created a new category...a sinful holiness...a filthy rags righteousness.... being now attributable to God (of all things)...and other such fallacies. If you could be taken serious ya'll would be dangerous. Fortunately you have no...

    Coming from you...this is a compliment! :woohoo!:
