Romans 8: There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me (Paul) free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do in...

Yes. That is what Paul is saying. That is why when you walk in the Spirit, you are not under the old law. The old law was only for sinners. Galatians 3:19a 19 What purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the Seed (Jesus) should come to whom the promise was made

5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death. 6 But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness...

It is the inner old man that is crucified with Christ and raised with Christ. The outer shell does not change, just our inner nature. And Jesus doesn't cover us, we abide in Him, and He in us.

AGAINo_O, Romans 7:16-20 is an unborn again person UNDER THE LAW before the indwelling of the Spirit of Christ - the culmination in chapter 8!!! So, of course, sin still dwells in them! Oy vey, marks!

"body of sin" is not our body, but the "whole" of sin. Like an author's body of works. It is everything he wrote. Not letting sin reign in your mortal body is inside your nature that has been reborn. IOW don't quench the Spirit. Your nature is inside your body, and that is what needs to be...

I am too, but I don't stop at Abraham's justification of faith. There is so much more in that 8 chapter teaching. Abraham never received the Promise that started with him.

Justification by faith as taught in the Reformation is justification of faith IN Christ. But it misses the mark when you search no further. The Holy Spirit in us produces justification by the faith OF Christ in you. That is when you are truly justified and sanctified and can then go forth into...

Paul is teaching about before the law, the law, grace, and the culmination - the Spirit. It is an 8 chapter teaching. Pulling out what happened before the law, and most importantly, Christ, is tunnel vision speaking. That is what Calvinism is all about, and why Jesus called that teaching, dead...

You have not explained the new birth. You would have to understand it first to explain it. And you'll never understand it until you've experienced it as they did on the Day of Pentecost. And I'm not talking about speaking in tongues, but receiving the life changing power given us from the...

That is because the majority of Protestants have been affected by the false teachings of Calvinism. I prefer to be in the few that find the truth.

How does imputed righteousness affect your sins you are committing?

The point you are completely missing as usual is that Jesus had not come yet, therefore everyone after Adam and before the Day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit came still had their sin nature which is crucified with Christ. Then we are raised again as reborn creatures in Christ's resurrection...

No, because Abraham still had his old nature that is only killed on the cross of Jesus. It was Abraham's obedience based on his belief in God's words that was only imputed as righteousness. In Christ, He makes our righteousness REAL. That mystery is what you don't understand.

The problem in man's false teaching based on human reasoning is they say that Jesus gives sinners eternal life but without Him doing anything to change us supernaturally. You know, like becoming born again of the Spirit, and making us dead to sin. If we start to walk better but it is over a long...

We don't need written laws engraved on stone. Those were to guard us because of our sin nature - the old man. Our sin nature was in opposition to the laws of God. Our old man was crucified with Christ. We are resurrected with Christ with His moral laws written on our heart, our new nature is no...

Is that a quote from scripture, because I don't recognize it. Maybe a paraphrase?

This is what I wrote that you said I was uneducated, even though you are now quoting Romans 7:22 about those under the LAW, and not under the SPIRIT. In other words, Romans 7:22 are for those BEFORE Christ, and you dare to say I'm uneducated??? "sinners are judged according to the Ten...

Guess who is who in this letter from Jesus regarding doctrine in the Reformation: ‘These things says He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead. 2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain...

Seeing as it will be the Holy Spirit in them doing so, I think He would have said otherwise if it wasn't completely forgiven. We've seen Paul turn sinners over to Satan; that is an example of retaining their sins. That is a curse. And it works, but only if you have the Holy Spirit, and the one...
