No, I'm talking about the many congregations inside a denomination. They are all taught the same thing according to the denomination.

But you first have to HEAR the gospel and Jesus wasn't preaching from the cross, so the thief had to have believed before. Read it again, but compare the two passages. The latter shows the specifics of only one of the robbers. Matthew 27: 41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the...

Where is the verse you put in bold, or is this the gospel of Enoch?

Yes, death came upon the whole world through Adam's one willful sin. When we are born again (our nature called the old man is crucified Romans 6:6-7), and our new nature is raised by Christ's resurrection power, our inside nature is in the Spirit and becomes immortal taking on eternal LIFE...

Those two statements seem to contradict each other. The first seems to mean the doctrine of our present and future sins are not seen by the Father. The second seems to mean that like Christ the new nature He gives us does not sin. Imputed is only OT. The New Covenant is not imputed, but real...

Where does it say the thief on the cross was NOT baptized. It doesn't mention it at all to say one way or the other. Whether or not he was likely to have been baptized or not should be determined by what he said. I vote that he was. 42 Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come...

To be holy. 1 Peter 1: 15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

What is God's plan for us? Since Adam's sin, God's plan is to separate the sheep from the goats and provide the power to do so. Revelation 22:11.

"Imputed" implies a covering, instead of actually being righteous ourselves through the new nature Jesus creates in us. That is what is commonly taught in the Church, but is not a New Covenant doctrine from Jesus or the apostles. Before Christ's crucifixion and resurrection, the OT saints were...

There is only one faith, but many denominations. Denominations are splits in the Church. I am not a denominationalist. I want to know from God, the Author, what he means by every verse He wrote; not follow some leader of a split in the Church of Jesus Christ that has no unity with the rest of...

I gave you a Bible study, and you rudely asked me why I was giving you a sermon on sin that in my opinion has everything to do with the Holy Spirit so is in line with the title of the post (without addressing any of the scriptures I gave.) Not growing in the fruit of the Spirit will cause you to...

Let's let the New Covenant tell us about food, then you be show me your scripture for your seemingly acceptance of homosexuality, without contradiction of other scriptures in the New Covenant. 1 Corinthians 6: 12 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are...

The United Methodist Church I attended left the denomination because of the practicing gay bishop that was overseeing them. What do you personally think about that?

It is like the parable of the ten talents, 5 talents and one talent.

I agree and believe Jesus when He said "few there are that find it." What I feel sorry for are those particular denominations that believe ONLY people from their one denomination will be among those few. It all boils down to who Jesus has taken their sin nature away, and they keep themselves. 1...

This thread is about what is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is God. Just like the Father is God, and the Son is God. I've already said that. Why have you been insulting multiple times? I have the Holy Spirit and have matured the fruit of the Spirit so have been long-suffering with you, but...

I agree. That is why Jesus died for the whole world, not just for those who accepted His free gift. I don't know if you agree with that; I know other denominations do not which is against what scripture says. You are not that way. I'm sorry, but if there was a reason why we seemed to not accept...

Actually I don't get why this is so important to you. God is everywhere and that is all I need to know.

Do I understand you to say that you do not believe 1 John 3:21? Of course it is about those who are born again as is the rest of 1 John 3, not about a devil worshiper relying on his own conscience.

God is light and there is no darkness in Him. 1 John 1:5-6. He can see into the hearts of every man, but He will not dwell in darkness.
