    How to Walk in Righteousness

    This has happened to you already. I'm trying to rescue you out of the clutches of those wolves. If you lived from your inner man...you would see that I am speaking truth in the face of the prevalent lies. But if you live from the ego...the self-love that is puffed up by vain promises to the...

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    You are funny. You entertain logical fallacies. As in..If I misread the bible...that doesn't mean it contains the truth! You speaking foolishness in reaction to the truth I speak doesn't mean there is any foolishness in what I speak

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    The religious ego has become so puffed up in our time, that the pure words of Jesus are reviled and seen as having no weight at all. [34] Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. [35] Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass...

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    Then why won't you listen to the words of Jesus? What part of you is offended at His words...so that you can cancel them so easily. Why do you destroy the meaning of the bible in order to say...there is need of nothing else....as in...nothing else you need to ignore like you do the bible? Have...

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    But you are going into the middle of a verse to determine for all and sundry, to tell us which ones are true and false. Can you take away from the words of Paul without denying what he's saying? The same thing goes for the words of Jesus BTW. At one point, you have to let yourself be...

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    Jesus lays out for us what we should do to be accepted by Him. That takes in BOTH NT levels.....the righteous and the holy. Matt. 10:41 "He that receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man...

    It's flesh feeding time folks. Lions on the prowl looking to devour the lambs.

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    "In many crucial and excruciating ways, [Christianity] is an anti-religion, a critique of all the human forms of faith from a prophetic perspective which recognizes that religions generally decay into religiosity, that icons deteriorate into idols, and that aesthetic ritual degenerates into...

    You are spiritually rich and have need of nothing.

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    Jesus was exaggerating about how difficult it was to enter the kingdom walk? Every believer? That's the popular mantra. No big deal... So you don't like Paul's instructions on how we are to meet. And you don't think Jesus was being honest about the availability of the higher walk? ???

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    Biblical teaching that you don't approve of. Who are you following really? Think about it.

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: I think people consider themselves already be in the unity of a perfect man and be at the full stature of Christ...since the...

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    I'm back! :) So this concerning prophets. I'm not surprised at this. The modern Church is not based on an intimacy with God...so then a direct line to the throne of God isn't required for these. Men's approval is all that is needed. The New Testament gives us the guidelines to how we should...

    That's not what it says...and you know it.

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    That's the model of the institution...set up like business...with franchises. The competitive nature of these businesses makes for a dumbing down of the gospel to get as many in the pews as possible...more people, more revenue= more success. This has proved disastrous to evangelicalism. The...

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    Cell groups are not house churches. The covering of an institution precludes a direct connection of authority to God. There are no multiplicity of coverings. The head of every man is Christ.

    Are you in a house church? If so, how long have you been established for?

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    Of course not. Remember the company we keep here.... always a hair away from being devoured...like in a lion's den. Right now they aren't feeding...keep watching...and praying.

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    At what time? We are not like a dead institution. We have seasons of things. At one time we were two elders...but that brother left to become a pastor. A failure in my view! You can't compare a religious institution to a spiritual family, try as you might.

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    The keeping power of God is powerful. You only fall out of the Spirit when you sin a sin unto death. OR..as in the case...you want out so badly because you are stuck in Zion and your selfish nature can't handle it.
