    What Christian is not doing the works of the flesh?

    It is good that you stopped promising God you are not going to do a work of the flesh anymore. I can relate. I also had to come to a place where I realized that I was still weak in my flesh, but that God was stronger than I was and I needed His strength in me. This is exactly why Jesus said we...

    Works is the opposite of OSAS. Yes, I agree, he believes in keeping the letter of the law. But that is NOT OSAS. How do you figure? OSAS is lawlessness, not keeping the law. Jesus said, "If you love me, keep my commandments." How do you interpret that verse? Maybe the same way I do, but he...

    Walking in the Spirit is another condition.

    Faith Alone Theology: I'm not what I do, but only what I say I am

    Luther, one of the original church fathers of the Reformation (Sardis) said in a letter that "even if we committed murder and adultery 1000 times a day we could not be separated from God" - basically a dead doctrine of demons. However modern Lutherans do not believe in OSAS. However, they avoid...

    How can you say that Phoneman777 believes in OSAS which is a license to sin when he believes we must keep the Ten Commandments, and if we don't we are damned. You have tunnel vision against him in general, and it doesn't matter to you if he tells you the opposite of what you say he says. That's...

    Conditional salvation But you agree that salvation is also based on Jesus taking away our sin and making us new creations, and our not just saying I'm saved and can now do what I want. Salvation is based on NOT doing that, so it is a condition. We must be born again. So you do believe that, so...

    Did you read this part, or none. Behold: Now, if you decide to live in the flesh, and continually commit works of the flesh. Here is what happens. Your faith will become DEAD, and "christian stuff" will become completely unimportant to you as you mind slides deeper and deeper into "darkness"...

    Did you understand my tweak? Behold, we have been agreeing. Don't spoil it now by lying. A half-truth is a full-lie. How is taking away the desire to sin not keeping us saved? How is filling us with His Spirit and giving us power not keeping us saved. Do you think we can easily go against our...

    You're right about OSAS but wrong about Behold believing in it. You are both wrongly accusing one another of believing in OSAS, when neither of you do. Do either of you actually read each other's posts, or just like flinging manure at each other for fun. BTW, guys: "I die daily" means Paul...

    I would say they are both right with a little tweaking to make grace absolutely scriptural. When one first comes to Christ, Grace is God giving us what we don't deserve and Mercy is God not giving us what we indeed deserve. God pardons our past sins 2 Peter 1:9, and takes away the desire to sin...

    1 John 1: Mystery Resolved

    Just hold down the mouse and scan over the part you want to quote. Once it is highlighted, a quote, reply button will appear. Hit quote, and then bring it to the spot you want it to be. In this case, I brought it as a reply to your post. Good night.

    1 John 1: Mystery Resolved

    About ten years ago, realizing that there is one Author so there is only one true interpretation of every verse, I prayed and asked God to wipe away out of my mind all denominational errors and to teach me the truth. My mind exploded. One revelation knowledge after another. And it hasn't...

    Faith Alone Theology: I'm not what I do, but only what I say I am

    Exactly. It is sad, but read Revelation 3:1 to the church of Sardis. That first verse is about this false doctrine being taught in the Church, because that is what Calvinism teaches -. But further in the letter about verse 4, are those who teach like you and I do - holiness.

    1 John 1: Mystery Resolved

    Thanks. I've been teaching the Semitic Writing Styles which in this case is called contrast from 5-10 LIGHT vs DARKNESS. But no one could really grasp it on the forums. I usually learn everything by the Spirit, but this time I have to give credit to my favorite teacher who also doesn't teach...

    Faith Alone Theology: I'm not what I do, but only what I say I am

    Yes, their teachers tell them anyone who claims to be free from sin as 1 John 1:9 promises, claims to NOT NEED JESUS.

    I thought he taught that too for years, but he doesn't. Did you read the posts I gave you of what he believes. Read #40 and #42 and lets discuss those. BTW, what do you believe grace is? Come to think of it, I'm not sure what his 'definition' is. Mine is grace is the divine power of God given...

    I had thought so too for years. But I see in the last posts that he teaches the same thing I do, which is the opposite of a license to sin, but to do as Christ did with the mind of Christ. Read his posts to me #40 and #42 and lets all discuss these together, civilly this time. Start over. He's...

    I agree with this too. You seem to now be wording your posts more understandably. Yay! This is incredible. We've been teaching the same thing all this time. In the past you haven't explained what you mean by "You don't walk "according to the SPIRIT" by trying to keep commandments, and by trying...
