    The Kingdom of God - do we have access to it now?

    All of creation is awaiting the revealing of the sons of God. This time we live in presently is a time where the kingdom realm in the Spirit is available to all people. We are to seek first His kingdom while we yet live. There is no seeking for His kingdom when we are dead.

    Imputation is based on the Old Testament

    Luther isn't Christ. You have been convinced of a man made religious scheme that takes away both righteousness and holiness. Like this... Warning: Sound Doctrine Alert. Difficult for religious people to endure content. I see you are unable to refute what I say using the bible. :)

    Imputation is based on the Old Testament

    Paul reasoned with people. Jesus reasoned with people. The truth is hard...but it isn't unreasonable. However, religiously indoctrinated people are no longer reachable through reason. They will say that you need to be more "spiritual" ie...UNreasonable... to understand what is plainly NOT...

    Imputation is based on the Old Testament

    Yes...but not religious speculations that offend God. That's not the case. We are not born with sin..we are born outside God's presence. We learn to rely on an outer man covering that protects us in this world. Why does God's covenant require circumcision? The foreskin is meant as a...

    Instruction in righteousness

    We sample God's goodness at regeneration..we are forgiven, cleansed, and given a new motivation from within to fear the Lord and obey His commandments. What is left in us is a template of Christ into which we are to be conformed. it's called discernment! :) And knowledge and understanding. You...

    Instruction in righteousness

    I suppose we must take error to its most drastic and illogical conclusion. What is needed here is a thesaurus or even a dictionary. I speak here of @Keturah 's propaganda campaign regarding the error that I'm hoping will be seen for what it is...thus liberating modern believers into a place...

    Instruction in righteousness

    1. I have been with the Lord for a long time. Since 1980/ I have changed a lot. :) 2. I began in the Spirit...baptized into a walk in Zion. 18 years later...after a LOT of struggles...I was permitted to go back in the Spirit...this time for a few years. 2. But I failed after much testing in...

    God promises:

    To know the truth that sets us free from the bondage to sin.

    Instruction in righteousness

    There is a part WE are responsible for...our faith and our faithfulness. That is incremental....as we learn to obey God more and more. This is analog. And then there is the empowering grace of God to do the impossible...that is INSTANTLY perfect (as a gift). This is by His faith and...

    Gospel Of Grace Is Approved By Jerusalem Leadership

    The council approved what Paul was preaching because God was backing him up with signs and wonders, and many changed lives that caused the people at large to glorify God. The conduct of the new Gentile believers was exemplary...and a strong sense of the fear of the Lord was spreading over what...

    The Gospel in a Nutshell

    You have expressed the understanding of the "little book" in rev. 10. Sweet in the mouth but the end is bitter. Jesus said that it was those who believed INTO Him that experience His eternal life...the life we experience as we abide in Him. But that concept is a spiritual one and not so easily...

    Instruction in righteousness

    Exactly. So what's stopping you? Do you see yourself as the first in line...and anyone who actually does what you say is a liar? So do you believe the bible or not?

    Instruction in righteousness

    God judges us as WE are not how He is. On OUR scale...there are things we do, imperfect things, that we cannot help ourselves to do in our weakness. We are INsufficient in ourselves...and God takes that into consideration. He compares like with like. Like a handicap in golf. So then common sins...

    Instruction in righteousness

    Forgetting about sin, or covering up sin, is for the righteous among the nations..come judgment day. Why do we need to have our sins covered up when we are to present our bodies a living sacrifice to be dealt with at the cross here and now? The discrepancy is to mix up salvation from sin...by...

    This from @Adam . Very well said! :)

    Instruction in righteousness

    I'm in the TSESA (The sect that is everywhere spoken against ....Acts 28:22) ...with all the spiritual Christian disciples not affiliated with the religious system of men. Without (outside) the camp bearing His reproach Heb. 13:13 So then God's Son is saved. But He can't see you? Was I wrong to...

    Addressing the ISSUES......

    Exactly! So instead they attack the one who lays out biblical truth that is balanced. I'll say that there are 2 testaments, two principal commandments, 2 judgments, 2 resurrection, 2 levels of walk..and get called a false teacher. Then another says he is as righteous as God...and people think...

    Addressing the ISSUES......

    Not an attack..an observation. Look at my threads if you want to see attacks. I lay out scriptures..and get personal attacks for it. People say they want better dialogue...but are then unable to do so.

    Addressing the ISSUES......

    How are you not being caustic here? Doing the very thing you say you hate? A porous head? Is that a Christian comment?
