Thanks. I usually get labelled a heretic!

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Paul wrote that to those under the law who did not recognize the sin in their nature. 1 John 1:8 are those kinds of people. Even the Jews who kept the law still needed Jesus to receive the Holy Spirit, just like the guy in 1 John 1:8 needed...

That's the point. The faith OF Jesus doesn't sin.

2 Peter 1:10-11 10 Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; 11 for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Read 2 Peter 1:5-7 to...

His blood DOES cleanse us from all unrighteousness, and takes away the old sin nature so we have no desire to sin again in the present or future.

That is right. We cannot stop sinning UNTIL we have received the Holy Spirit of Christ. He died on the cross so our old sin nature could also die on that same cross and we could be raised up to live this life righteously. Revelation 22:11 Jesus never sinned though he was born of a human woman...

The letter of the law kills, but the Spirit of the law brings life. So how do you instinctively keep the Spirit of the Sabbath, without keeping it by the letter that kills? I'll tell you how. By being baptized in the Holy Spirit of God, that's how. Jesus, the Creator of everything, abides inside...

The son came home (repentance). There are three parts of us. The spirit, soul and body. The spirit and soul make up our nature which is born again. The spirit is not saved if the soul isn't also.

The divine nature of God cannot desire to do wrong. That is why Jesus never sinned, and those born again of the seed of the Father cannot either.

That is because Jesus was conceived with the seed of the Father, so He lived his whole life free from sinful desires. 1 John 3:9 9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. That is what Jesus meant by you must be...

I agree that there are are doctrines of demons out there VERY prevalent in all the denominations. It has to do with the issue of sin. SDAs are not involved in these doctrines of demons that I have seen. Answer this question: What did Jesus accomplish on the cross regarding Christians who follow...

Just the opposite. The Old Covenant was all about commandments that we had to keep with our own willpower. But the sin nature is too strong, making the Law inept to make us righteous. That is why Jesus came. Romans 8:3 For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did...

Yes, Jesus kept the Old Covenant commandments, because He loved His Father, and lived under them. And now what Jesus has preached to us is what we need to obey to be His followers, in the same zeal as Jesus kept His Father's, because we love Jesus. His commandments are boiled down to this 1 John...

If you keep the teachings of Jesus, you will be fine. 1 John 3:23-24. However, you must be born again to keep them. That means you must be filled with the Holy Spirit of God so you can abide in Him, as He abides in you.

I'm sure you keep the letter of keeping that one day holy. But I hope you have also been born again of the Spirit which means your old carnal nature has been taken out of you. Personally I actually felt it lift out of my body. It was a heaviness, but after it left, I felt like I could float. Now...

We were discussing that you do not believe in the Trinity. So now you quote John 1:1 that the Word was not only God, but with God. So do you believe in a duelty?

When God wrote His laws on our hearts. We know what to do, and we also know the meaning of His Word by His Spirit. The natural man cannot understand the Spirit of the Sabbath, only the letter of the old law.

The shunning is for their own good to convict them to repent. James 5: 19 Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, 20 let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins. 2...

What did Jesus preach and teach? To believe on Him. To love one another. To be perfect. To be holy. 1 John 3:23-24

Hi QT, Okay, so tell me how I can keep the Spirit of the Sabbath without it being of the letter, just one day a week. The Spirit of a law is all the time, not broken down. I think you will admit that the Old Testament Sabbath day was once a week and could only be known and kept by the letter of...
