    You have to realize that these are not first time responses. Often on these threads its the same people relating the same things over and over again. When someone is stuck on something...I try...as politely as I can...to bring the seriousness of the subject to that person's attention...without...

    Instruction in righteousness

    In the OT, it was on the people to "circumcise" themselves to the Lord. Even in the OT, however, there was prophesied a time where God Himself would do the crucifying... (Deuteronomy alludes to the future NEW covenant.) Deut. 30:6 And the Lord your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart...

    Instruction in righteousness

    Hi Wynona! I don't think we get a chance to exchange ideas too often! :) The Light from heaven EXPOSES us...otherwise we would never repent. So then a doctrine that has God covering up our sins is not one that is based on the light of God. God is the one that crucifies our outer man...as we...

    The Flying Scroll

    Zach. 5:1 Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll. (scroll) 2 And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits. 3 Then said he unto me, This is the curse that...

    Instruction in righteousness

    The epidemic we have in the church is that people pretend to play...they are smug because they think any advancement is based on "works". They are against practicing and being open...because they have been told they are as good as they ever will be. For a few, this will work out...as they will...

    The Little Book

    It's still the truth...but things have been taken away. Like the warning at the end to not take away from the prophecies of the word. it wouldn't be called small if it was the full version. Just like the sample of grace is not the whole measure.

    Instruction in righteousness

    But who would impute the mastery of Chopin to a beginner who can only play "chopsticks"? The point is not that we learn...the problem is that people impute righteousness to themselves. Everybody is claiming to be as good as Chopin but hardly anyone can play. Although, there is a lot of...

    The Little Book

    Have you seen the Blues Brothers movie? There's a certain country gig where the band is behind a wire cage....the reason? The audience keeps chucking things at the band if they don't like the song being played. I see the forum being like this. There are certain posters who think themselves to...

    The Little Book

    This is an interesting observation David. A final warning before the end from someone who received the prophecy directly from the Lord.

    The Little Book

    I see it as a part of the truth...but incomplete hence the smallness of the book. When people pick and choose preferred verses but omit the lion-share of the bible they don't like...it makes for a "little book." Half-truths and assumptions based on those half-truths. So then to the one who is...

    The Little Book

    IS your opinion that valuable? And BTW...I didn't yet comment on the OP of this thread. I just posted scripture verses and asked a few questions. Perhaps you mean to say that actually reading the biblical account has cleared things up in your own mind? Or not? Care to comment?

    Instruction in righteousness

    Boxing analogies aside, do you think God sees us as righteous as He is because we believe Him?

    Enough of all this edification business! ;) ...hey...look at that thread over there!

    Instruction in righteousness

    Hey welcome to the thread. Yeah, speaking about righteousness can get pretty nasty. A devil thread? We're dealing with humanity and the basic tendency of the flesh towards unbelief. If someone testifies to the higher walk...the cries of "liar, or, imposter"...ring out! Of course we read of the...

    Instruction in righteousness

    I do find you funny...and in more ways than one! As I have said.. I don't expect random people from the internet to agree with the deeper issues concerning the way in Christ. The way is narrow and few will find it. And ego champions will have zero idea of what I'm talking about. Of course you...

    Do you maintain that your name is Mark? Or are you reconsidering your position on that! ;) I realize that I'm wasting my time trying to get anything across to you...so until the next time.

    While this is true in principle...we see the majority living from the carnal mind and acting out of uncrucified flesh. Now, we could say they are not listening to those who lead them...or else...they are listening to those who coddle their flesh. What you are missing here is that God raised...

    Instruction in righteousness

    Hey Nancy. I'm used to posters denying the truth of the Bible. So many only pay attention to verses and ideas that they LIKE or WANT the bible to say. So these ignore obvious biblical truth and exposition. It's very hard to have an honest dialogue with those who live from the outer man. So then...

    Heresy or error?

    The religious outer man does what he is meant to do...protect the carnal life that one has learned to live by and depend on. But that man must be crucified to allow the inner man to belong to Christ. Can you see the difference? What more can be said here? Much discernment (in love).
