    Matthew 18 - Is Jesus Lying Or Are You Lying?

    If you're not forgiven your sins, you are not saved from wrath. The guy was forgiven, thus saved, and, afterward, unforgiven, thus, lost that salvation. If you want to be unforgiven of your sins, and go to torment to pay for your sins, and call that "no losing salvation", then have at it...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    One proof: those "in Christ" have "no condemnation" (Ro 8:1); but the one who sins is "condemned" (Ro 14:23). "In Him there is no sin."

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    You can "not see" the evidence all you want. As already explained to you, Paul says they "HAD run well". That is an explicit acknowledgement that they HAD had faith. AFTERWARDS, someone "hindered" them from "obeying the truth" (Gal 5:7). Together with Galatians 3:1+ there should be no question...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    As already explained to you, over and over and over again, "belief" is a "command" (1 Jn 3:23,24), thus, disobeying that command is, by definition, a sin : even if we granted that "we only need to believe", which I don't, it is a sin to not believe, and when people are led away by a false...

    Man Saves Trafficked Children

    Clearly, the man is a Black man. America says, based, in good part, on Christianity, "all men are created equal", and are welcome to do their good, so we can all praise God together; others want "multiculturalism" only because they hope to form disparate groups, and sow discord, so that we will...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    You hesitate to believe Paul's words, then. Galatians 1:6, 5:7. It was proof that not all remain "in Christ", because remaining is by obeying God's command to i. believe in the Name of God's Son, and ii. love one another (ie, walk in faith--faith works by love), and, here, we see the Galatians...

    Matthew 18 - Is Jesus Lying Or Are You Lying?

    That's not relevant : the dynamic of God forgiving fully, but, then, being able to rescind that forgiveness, is what is important. Do you hold, as the Scripture teaches, that God is able to rescind His forgiveness He had extended to you as a believer today so that you would have to go to torment...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    To me, because I understand there are good and bad Christians, whereas you would say there are "true believers" and "false believers", I just say "Christian" to refer to all "true believers", and I take into account that not all remain in Christ. The basic fact is that not all remain "in...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    It's not "confusing" to me, I am certain that your view is incoherent and inconsistent with the Scriptures. You are not acquainted with the Scripture, so you define any activity at all as "work": a. Again, when the land has its Sabbath, it is still active, but that activity is not "work". If it...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    Yeah, my views, which are commonly derided as "salvation by works of righteousness", are "liberal"--makes as much sense as the rest of your gobbledygook.

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    That's already been described to you. They were "deserting God" through another Gospel (ie, unbelief) Gal 1:6. This was after they'd already believed the Gospel and received the Spirit Gal 3:1-3. Paul had to form Christ in them again, bring then back to faith Gal 4:19. They were severed from...

    Matthew 18 - Is Jesus Lying Or Are You Lying?

    This sounds like Eastern Orthodoxy. Anyway, if he had remained forgiven, he wouldn't have been handed over to thetormentors, so... not sure what you do with that.

    Matthew 18 - Is Jesus Lying Or Are You Lying?

    Oh, ok, I'll mark you down as another "Jesus is a liar."

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    This can be in the negative or in the positive--he may be caused to think he must do something that he does not believe in, that does not proceed from his heart, which is actually contrary to his faith in and love for God, or he may be caused to think that he may do something he doesn't actually...

    Stop being carnal, stop disagreeing with my Spiritual view.

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    His action was not from faith, breaking the rule "each man should be fully convinced in his own mind", which is a rule for believers.. Why would Paul declare an unbeliever who ate without faith Condemned for eating without faith? He knows the unbeliever is already condemned. Ro 14:23 says "he...

    Matthew 18 - Is Jesus Lying Or Are You Lying?

    The parable says he was forgiven all he owed. Jesus, then, says that this refers to how God will treat (those who've been forgiven through Christ's blood) the disciples if they do not forgive. Jesus tells the Apostles to go into all the world and teach the nations the things He taught them--He...

    Matthew 18 - Is Jesus Lying Or Are You Lying?

    You're admitting the unforgiving servant had eternal life--bc he was forgiven--and it was rescinded. Again, Jesus said this is what God will do to us if we are unforgiving... so, do we have eternal life or not?
