The problem with asking, "do you serve sin unto death or obedience unto righteousness" is that the verse comes from Romans 6. Right in the middle of a very long explanation of the power of grace through faith alone. You really have to read the whole chapter and in this case Chapters 4-8 at...

Amen!

Why do you call yourself Earnest T Bass? You should call yourself "Rerun" from Good Times. Hey Rerun, you are avoiding the issue. I live by the Law of the inward man: The Law of faith. You either serve by: 1. The Law of Moses or 2. The Law of Faith. They don't mix. I serve by the Law...

Again, I live by the Law of the inward man: The Law of faith. You either serve by: 1. The Law of Moses or 2. The Law of Faith. They don't mix. I serve by the Law of Faith. Which do you serve?

I delight and serve God by the law of the inward man, bub. I see another law warring against me, and that I do not serve God by.... You do. Read Romans 3... It'll describe your law vs the Law of Faith, which I live by.

Ignoring what was said again...It was spritual sin.... Hey.... Don't bother to respond. You've said enough. ETB..... You don't believe much in grace through faith do you? If you do... Can you complete this sentance without following if up with "But", "However", "Although" or any likeness of...

ETB, please read the whole chapter. Also realize that Paul talked of Predestination. I don't want to be in your shoes calling God's annointed -- Paul -- a liar. You should repent.

That was bit much of a lesson! I'm afraid I didn't get through it all... Yes, it would only take 5 minutes or so to read. But to read and understand and comprehend.... I've spent 3 months reading just one chapter at times.... It took me that long to get it! The first thing that caught my...

Please read the whole chapter. He was talking about false worship. Grace covers sins of the flesh. Not sins against the Spirit. Matthew 12:31 bears me out on that point.

I liked you last post, lukethreesix.... I've been in quite a few "free will vs. God's plan" type of discussions before. Those are all good and valid points that I've used as well. I tend to use Paul's story more than Jonah's but that's my preference. What I liked in what you said is your...

Thinking more on this, I suppose I should cut Aspen a break (maybe). The problem I have is with people that say they love the Lord by loving others, especially when it comes to giving, but really in any circumstance. When asked if God is first they tend to be flippant and say, "Oh, well...

It wasn't about sins of the flesh. It was about turning from God: a spiritual sin.

No... It's only symbolic. You said so yourself. Not everyone in the NT was water baptized. You are old school and not present testament. But have a nice day. RIP the teachings of Earnest T. Bass. A fictionial character with fictional teachings. Nevermore.... Thus quoteth the Raven.

I don't give a darned... I'd like to use the "F" word... But I can't. I believe God. Let the world go to hell. It's about time... God's more patient than I am!

Wow... That encourages me Poppin. I pray that your pastor is preaching the Truth and you grow in the Lord.

Good words Poppin. Small thing, but I saw that you enjoyed and were happy to be going to Church. Wish more folks felt the same way.... For me it is the high light of my week.

But King.... I am in the flesh. Paul said I wasn't, but he also said I was. And like Paul, because I am in the flesh, I will continue in mortal sin. I don't condone sin. I do abhor it. But the good that I would do, I do not. But the evil that I would not do, that I do. But it is not I...

I focus on loving God. You haven't figured that out yet, have you Aspen. God is first, not "neighbors".

LOL.... Yea King!

Ahhh... The carnal mind... Not understanding the power of grace through faith. Always looking back to works. Washed, sancitified and justified. When God does that, it's a done deal! When your sins are covered and you been imputed, you aren't guilty. A carnal mind can't understand that, I...
