Seems you agree, from your statements, especially your admission that you are chastened when you do not abide in Christ. It seems pretty straight forward, though I understand why some feel the need to deny what is written. It upsets the benefits they gain from their view, which are real...

Please, people, do not come and scrawl graffiti--if you're going to leave a comment, be considerate, be on topic, address the OP.

Then you're likely not on topic--I find no reason to read or respond to your comment. The OP, the thread, is about how people misunderstand and misuse Romans 8:1.

So, are you agreeing or disagreeing with the OP?

Because of these things (ie, the Galatians choosing to become slaves through returning to the Law, not serving one another by faith which works through love (as also described in Romans 14)--and "slavery" "definitionally" involves fear (Ro 8:15), and the presence of fear portends boasting which...

Oops, you don't know the Greek! It's the same word as Paul uses to describe himself! Luke 12:47 N-NMS GRK: δὲ ὁ δοῦλος ὁ γνοὺς NAS: And that slave who knew his master's KJV: And that servant, which knew INT: moreover servant who having known Romans 1:1 N-NMS GRK: ΠΑΥΛΟΣ δοῦλος Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ...

But not all remain "in Christ", proven by the fact that keeping His commands is how you remain "in Christ" (Jn 15, 1 Jn 3:23,24), and the one who sins by doing what he doubts, not what he is "fully convinced in his own mind" is correct, is "is condemned" (Ro 14:23), whereas there is "no...

Nope. Luke 12 47And that slave who knew his master’s will and did not get ready or act in accordance with his will, will receive many blows, 48but the one who did not know it, and committed acts deserving of [ag]a beating, will receive only a few blows. From everyone who has been given much...

You didn't respond to the point of the OP, so it's not of any interest to me in this thread.

Oops, that was something another user said. It got mixed up because I was in the middle of answering you when I went to make the response to his reply--but, yeah, you have nothing of substance to say, just lots of crackling noises. Ecclesiastes 7 6A fool's laughter is quickly gone, like thorns...

Had you followed the conversation, you'd have read that I actually said part of remaining in Christ is being forgiven--but, again, the main point is that not all remain. Not all accept that reality, and that was the point I was making, which you never addressed. You are trying to change the...

Again, are you agreeing or disagreeing with the OP?

Yeah, actually, I think you missed my entire point, because you didn't address it, and you really seem to be arguing against me as if I were OSAS, whereas I've made many threads against OSAS, and you ought to have understood from reading my OP that I am against OSAS, As I said, you are...

LOL Wow Yeah, it makes sense now. You know the drill. Proverbs 18 13He who answers a matter before he hears it— this is folly and disgrace to him.

I know you have a lot of ideas in your mind that you are burning to share with everyone (for which you should really go make your own thread, not commandeer others' threads)... Proverbs 18 2A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion. Again, are you agreeing...

Good, because it's plainly stated in Scripture. "Acting against conscience" is pretty much "definitionally" sin (except there're sins we can commit without knowing we're committing them, which would be "OUTSIDE" of knowledge, not "WITH" knowledge). How? Is "each man must be fully convinced in...

1. I've "failed"! Oh, no! You've made me so sad that you don't approve of me! I'm going to go cry now! LOL! 2. With all that you've said, what ever thoughts you wanted to share with everyone--all of that aside, because I think, in your zeal to correct someone, so as to appear correct about...

I never said "there is condemnation abiding in Christ from Yahweh". I said there is a superficial problem between the fact that "there is... no condemnation for those in Christ" (Ro 8:1) and the fact that the one who sins by breaking the rule "let each man be fully convinced in his own mind" is...

The rule of life he is laying down is a rule governing true believers. Again, you denied you'd ever say it, you have to deny the fact that he is writing to and instructing true believers on how they are to behave toward one another. Are you saying you, a "true believer", have NEVER judged...

I don't think it's limited to one or the other. I think there is an important message here. Isaiah 43 11I, I am the LORD, and besides me there is no savior. Isaiah 44 6Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: “I am the first and I am the last; besides me there...
