All men will be judged by their works. God will save whom He wills without consulting the religious systems set up by men. Those that do what is right, love mercy, and fear God are accepted with God. The meek and the humble and they who don't judge others. If people don't judge others...they...

Jesus died for the sins of the whole world. He is the Head of all authority and power. So He has won back the ownership of His own creation. In that sense MANKIND has been redeemed. But that doesn't stop any of us from sinning and missing the mark. But He was also resurrected to bring us life...

We read the bible as a religious fait accompli. My thought is that most believers today would have abandoned Jesus also...given the far out spiritual teachings ...in the face of a very understandable set of laws. So we are taught an interpretation of the truth that leaves out the controversial...

Agreed and of course. A saint is one who has had his "head removed" so that Christ is now His Head. Psalm 140 140 Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man (ADAM): preserve me from the violent man; 2 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war. 3...

Why use witchcraft for an example of the super-natural? Surely most modern believers are agnostic towards their own faith when pressed by things supernatural. We tend now to limit God to what a human can do. Human nature now rules over any possibility of a divine nature overcoming the Adamic...

Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

Of course Jesus had faith. He only did what He saw His Father doing. Jesus was fully man. And if Jesus didn't walk by faith (and faithfulness) then we could never walk in the Spirit by the faith OF Christ. In the Spirit we take on His life and His faith. Or do people think we can move...

Yes...and this works for believers who seek to control their own walks by leaning on their own understanding. Cut off from..."further light"... Matthew 23:37 37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered...

The Bible speaks of truth in depth...according to both realms simultaneously. That would be this temporal natural realm and the spiritual and eternal realm. A verse can have great depth with multiple meanings. So to be accurate the wordings are also cryptic at times. There is a form of art...

Modern religion is not about truth but about self-preservation based on religious attachment to certain beliefs. As such there is no actual transportability to others as in the true judgment of the world. No, the concern for to justify oneself...who cares about what happens to others. That is...

People tend to go to extremes...as if to be balanced is to be off kilter. But there are certain conditions that a person must meet...whether voluntary or not....so as to become a candidate of God's quickening in the spirit. How many claim they are born again when they have merely accepted a...

Not necessarily. Those who reject Christ and His words...certainly. But it is possible to reject the religion and yet still obey the words of Jesus. Just like it is very possible to accept the religion and ignore the words of Jesus. Like SOOO many modern believers do. Jesus taught on this. The...

Judas was as "saved" as any of we modern believers. He may in fact have been the only disciple to consider himself as saved...hence the lack of fear. So Judas should be a warning to us. Not everyone, even in the intimate circle if disciples, is there for a good outcome. There are both vessels of...

Western society has adopted...but less and less these days...a Christianity in a religious form. IOW something that brings a certain cohesion to society. A religion for the society at large. It's a way to work in a higher power into the national interest. And this re-enforces the call to obey...

This is more proof that you don't understand what righteousness is. The above verses are about human righteousness. Abraham had a human righteousness. Cornelius had a human righteousness Zacharias and Elizabeth had a human righteousness. Noah had a human righteousness. Lot had a human...

Amen. Christ is our righteousness only as we enter into Him. His righteousness is never IN us. We are separate beings. We are not God. 1 Cor. 1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: Phil. 3:9 and be found...

You are a religious person. For you the truth is in a dogmatic statement that is without life. It is a moral stance. And one has a moral stance OUTSIDE the life of God. By taking a position based on the natural man...who is moral and makes his own choices based on his own judgment. So is it a...

A burden for the truth maybe...hopefully. A burden to enter into the life that Jesus came to bring us...a resurrection life that is entered into by faith and diligently seeking the Lord. There are places of abiding right now in the heavenlies...that are vacant because people think the earth is...

Like a doctor is obsessed about saving a life. One day there will be great anger that the people who knew didn't make a bigger fuss about the truth to they who have believed a lie. If you love people you don't want them to perish.

As in...we're looking for a God to save us whom we don't really love? And He will be ok with that? We can be smug and NOT have to put Him first? That somehow for us other things take more of a priority? Let's see how that works out.
