Claiming to be justified by Christ while still living under the power of sin makes a person a transgressor. No different than a Pharisse...worse actually, since no Pharisee would have the gall to claim to be as righteous as God.

Our faith is in God ...whom we look to in a broken state. He is the one who receives our sacrifice and translates us. Until we are translated the first time we have no idea what pleasing God looks like...nor what His grace and mercy are capable of. God decides whom He will have mercy on. Most...

17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid. 18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

An owl among the crows? I agree in large part with what you've said here. You are only seeing righteousness through indoctrinated eyes, however. ALL our claims to righteousness are filthy rags. The truly righteous see themselves as mere sinners. A righteous person doesn't claim to be...

I think you realize that Jesus was also fully man. He had to learn wisdom and be trained to ignore His flesh. (there is no flesh in heaven) Jesus learned wisdom (human) through experiencing all the difficulties that we go through. I have other videos that I am building on in order. I am...

Hey Apak. I wasn't going to sully my soul with this thread anymore...now infested with crows...until I noticed your thoughtful post. This is the kind of dialogue I was open to have by going to the trouble of making a video and a thread. :) OK. Glad to you see the connection. It's normal that...

We will never unite based on agreeing to the same errors. We need to go to God for a FULL experience of grace and the cross...On THAT ground we will come to unity...since it bypasses the flesh. We come together on the ground of Christ...we are all equal at the foot of the cross. But as long as...

Apart from a God-inspired revival...it has always been the selfless service of believers...and the sacrifice of their bodies...that has led to people seeing Christianity as being inspired by God. And not only does a proper witness change individual lives...it also affects society as a whole. The...

No. 1 reason: Immature believers who bring shame to the name of Christ...having been deviated from the way of truth and turned aside to ways of justifying an uncrucified flesh. The Jews (and most non-believers) can see through what is a put-on...what is being faked. People are looking for...

Hello to all! I saw the Jesus Revolution movie last night. It's very good. It shows to some degree the hippie movement being transformed into the Jesus movement with many becoming followers of Jesus. A revival that began in the 60's....but that persisted and traveled the globe. Of particular...

I think I'm done with this thread. Let the righteous remain righteous, and let the filthy remain filthy.

You should realize that God is looking for spiritual fruit..not religious nuts.

Are you saying that the initial grace isn't free? Are you a works salvation person? Do you think Jesus died for your pleasure? Making videos of actors portraying Jesus on the cross so you can watch Him suffer...over and over again? And you think THAT is glorying in the cross? You are one sick...

One of the attributes of the religious outer man is that he will twist words and meanings to deceive the simple. The whipping boy analogy is how you disrespect what Jesus did for the whole world. You claim Him as your personal cover-up for your incessant sinning. As chief crow here, you are...

This is all from your religious outer man trying to defend itself against the truth. But I think there is an inner man in there somewhere realizing I'm speaking the truth. If you set your inner man free he would say..... Thank you Epi for trying to reach me in this dark hole I have placed...

It can get tricky... No. We know that we can believe what we want. There are thousands of denominations based on preferences in beliefs. Unless you are so naive as to think that the Holy Spirit wants all the carnal divisions we see. You are maybe too immature to realize that there is a higher...

Of course that's plainly false. Lying through your teeth or just ignorant of the word? James 2 :24 You see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out...

SBG Thank you for baby-sitting while I was away. The kids nowadays are very rambunctious...spoiled really.

I was taking a nap. I guess I forgot to ask permission from you taskmasters. But you are all doing is looking in the bible for scriptures that justify you IN your sins. That's what baby believers do. You are all carnal...the bunch of you. And having to take you by the hand to show you you are...
