Hi Bible Highlighter, John is clear that what he is meaning is there is a difference between talking the talk, and walking the walk. He is not leaving it up to any misinterpretation. It is easier if you read 1 John 2 first to be able to clearly see the true meaning of the first chapter where...

Paul was still on a level, but his last letter showed he had reached it. 2 Timothy 4:6-8 6 For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Finally, there is laid...

1 John 1:8 is about those who don't think they sin so never seek Jesus nor confess their sin to BECOME a Spirit-filled Christian. There is a big difference between those who SAY they don't sin, and those who WALK in the Spirit. You think you have to fight. I don't. 1 John 3:8 8 He who sins is...

Here is the literal interpretation: Young's Literal Translation 9 every one who hath been begotten of God, sin he doth not, because his seed in him doth remain, and he is not able to sin, because of God he hath been begotten.

What happens when Jesus gives you His Spirit is He takes away your sin 1 John 3:5, "And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin." What that does is cleanses your human nature from being a sin nature that all inherited after Adam sinned which corrupted...

1 John 3:9 New American Standard Bible 9 No one who has been born of God practices sin, because His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin continually, because he has been born of God.

Thank you all for sharing.

On Sunday in Sunday School before church started, I heard that some (three people) could see a glow around the pastor as he was preaching. I asked God to give me that ability, and sure enough after the announcements and into his preaching, I saw it and it continued until he was done preaching...

Yes, but add the "time, times and half a time" (3.5 years). Time is one year, times is two years, and half a time is half a year totaling 3.5 years. Except the 42 months of Rev. 13 is the second 3.5 years totally 7 years. There is a paradigm in Daniel 9 which calls the last 7 years, a week...

That is our western thinking, and totally incompatible with the eastern thinking and writing style of the Hebrew Apostles. You need advanced training if you are stuck in your western mindset in order to know what God is saying through His apostles.

Here is how it is broken down, but mentioned in two different sections. Then the persecution of the woman continues in the first part of Revelation 3. The Book of Revelation is a bunch of visions, and they are not in chronological order, but sometimes say the same thing two different ways with...

I thought so too at one time, but they are actually the same 3.5 years period mentioned each for different reasons.

When you read Revelation 12 AND 13 you see there are two 3.5 year periods equaling 7 years. Note the word "continued" in Revelation 13. That is the second 3.5 years.

I have not named your denomination; in fact, I don't know. If the beliefs that Gnostics believed are being taught in someone's denomination, that is not my fault. I've seen their doctrine taught in EVERY denomination. We can be in a denomination, and still be wise enough to sift the Gnostic...

Read your Bible quote again. It does not say body of FLESH.

Unbelieving Jews were NOT trying to infiltrate the Church. But the Gnostics were believers in Christ, but their doctrines about him were heretical, Just like denominations who believe that 1 John 1:8 are Christians. They believe in Christ, but only that He covers their sins so the Father can't...

Read the whole book. The reason for John writing 1 John in the first place is 1 John 4:1-3. Those are the Gnostics, and they say exactly what 1 John 1:6, 8 and 10 says and are not Christians. 1 John 1, 2 and 3 explains why the Gnostics are wrong. Because you like what the Gnostics are saying...

I'm copying an earlier post of mine that you missed. I just got up and need COFFEEEEEE! The Young's Literal Translation of 1 John 3:9 is "every one who hath been begotten of God, sin he doth not, because his seed in him doth remain, and he is not able to sin, because of God he hath been...

LOL, I put the yet in there because of all the people that believe because the body still needs to die, then we still have sin as a born again believer (like #396). NO! The nature is separate from the body. Romans 8:9-10

Yes, in Matthew 26:41 even the disciples were still tempted by their flesh because Jesus had not yet died, in order for them to become Spirit filled and their flesh was dead to sin. As you see in Romans 7:25 about the law, the mind is comparable to their spirit, as compared to Galatians 5:17. I...
