    The Decoy Gospel

    Some men know more than others... "....there has to be some undoing before there can be any upbuilding. The Christ who is the power of God to us is the crucified Christ who progressively applies the cross to us also so that being released from the flesh which so holds us back, we may advance in...

    The Decoy Gospel

    So you are not going to obey the Lord but just hold to a religious position instead...because of what Jesus did? See, that is why most will claim much for themselves but do little to nothing in regards to obedience to God.

    The Decoy Gospel

    It depends if they say they are following Him. We will be judged by our words. Believers will be judged harder than non-believers after all.

    The Decoy Gospel

    Why do people feel to overturn the words of Jesus? It's really beyond me. Do you think you understand more than the Son of God? I just repeated what Jesus said. Just because I don't put a verse number beside the statement doesn't make it LESS than the words of Jesus. Jesus did not use verse...

    The Decoy Gospel

    That statement is misused by many to avoid the cross themselves. Jesus fulfilled His part. Now it is our turn. Whoever does not take up their own cross to follow Him is not worthy of Him.

    The Decoy Gospel

    Salvation is a process. When we were still carnal He forgave our sins (past sins) because we are ignorant of the gospel message...that is that a power is come to earth in the form of grace that sets us free from present and future sins. (Few believe this to be so.) The remission of sins means...

    Right, Wrong, and Moral.................

    What is highly esteemed by men is abomination with God. There is no way to make moral rules about kingdom life. The standard of life in holiness is higher than any law. Love fulfills the law.

    Right, Wrong, and Moral.................

    The way of morality is not the Christian way. Remember the tree of good and evil. Morality is when we decide what is right and good...without any interference from God in the situation. To be led by the Spirit means we wait on the Lord for His voice that comes from LIFE...the tree of...

    Romantic Love In Eternity?

    What of the love that surpassed women between Jonathan and David? 2 Sam. 1:26 I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan; very pleasant hast thou been unto me. Thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women.

    I took this from another site... Narcigesis "Narcissistic Eisegesis (“Narcigesis”) = Forcing the Bible to mean something you already want it to mean by superimposing yourself into the meaning of the passage, rather than interpreting Scripture for what it means about God, and letting the...

    The Decoy Gospel

    If a person wishes to remain honest and un-deceived in regards to salvation and the gospel..there are a few questions one should ask oneself. 1. Does the bible EVER sanction self-justification? Ever? Who is doing the justifying? People think that the bible sanctions that we declare ourselves...

    The Decoy Gospel

    Spiritual gifts? Great care must be taken to avoid becoming a religious soul...where we are looking too hard for prophetic messages in the alphabet soup of our daily lives. The pagan religions did this...looking for signs. Interpreting the flight of birds. To be a prophet one must avoid the...

    The Decoy Gospel

    People put a great emphasis on correct belief. Are we going to be judged by filling out a questionnaire that tests our beliefs? Or will we be judged by what we thought, spoke and acted upon? So we will be judged by our behaviour. So what do our beliefs produce in us? What does our doctrine make...

    The Twins

    As a false teacher it is your right to ignore truth and scriptures at every turn. You are permitted to twist meanings, attack believers in truth as legalists and basically try to overthrow anything to do with God...for the satisfaction of your own ego. I know you are unteachable. But I write...

    The Twins

    You are making your opinion to be above God's AND Paul's...who you clearly twist the words of. But notice what Paul says about righteousness and the Old Testament. 2 Tim.3:16] All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for...

    Lamentations 4:6 6 For the punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands stayed on her.

    The Twins

    What God sees as righteousness in us is that we be real...honest. And fewer and fewer Christians are able to be honest with themselves, others or God. Most believers now have been programmed to hide themselves behind various verses that they interpret to mean that the ego is saved IN sin. To...

    The Decoy Gospel

    Big church: artificial Organic church: natural Real church: spiritual A decoy gospel is superficial and very popular...easy to accept and teach as people are already self-centered. So they get the pitch. But for a real spiritual church to be established the true gospel according to depth and...

    Gnosticism 101 There is no practice of the truth...just a pseudo-spiritual idea of having a right belief.
