    Sure. But do you? Are you sure you have not downgraded the gospel to something a person can do without a full surrender and entering in at the narrow door? The crucified walk is by resurrection life. Very very few know that walk...especially in these times of a false gospel that uses the words...

    The Twins

    Why can't you see that access is not the same as having? A world of difference! There are going to be great shocks on judgment day. Jesus died for the sins of the whole world. You are not understanding God's ways.

    The Twins

    God ALWAYS was merciful towards sinners. Jesus died for the sins of the whole world...not just they who say they selfishly claim the sacrifice for themselves. That is to be a thief. It is the very opposite of humility and what God justifies. But rich spoiled Westerners see everything for...

    The Twins

    You are vastly miscalculating God's ways and His judgments. You are as blind as the Jews were in the OT. You are thinking that somehow God favours Gentiles over Jews by giving them a license to sin...and all is well. So you are completely negating God's voice, His words, His fear, His...

    The Decoy Gospel

    There is a reasoning according to the soul. And there a spiritual understanding. There is the mind of the human....and the mind of Christ. The word of God divides between these two ways of hearing. The decoy gospel appeals to the souls of men...at the level of the human intellect. But God has...

    The Decoy Gospel

    We dishonour God by limiting what we think He can do. Or we can honour Him by believing Him to be all-powerful and sovereign. In these perilous times many believers walk in unbelief. Many have believed a lie...either a whole lie or a convenient half-truth. With God are not ALL things possible...

    The Decoy Gospel

    Because of indoctrination and the acceptance of an ideological filter that the human mind latches onto...the bible is clearly NOT ENOUGH to dislodge the lie and set people free in many cases. Even apart from being baptized in the Spirit to experience the presence of God in reality ...we need...

    The Decoy Gospel

    From any kind of distance a decoy looks like the real deal. But for a duck to be a duck it needs to quack like a duck! :) A decoy is used in spiritual terms to hunt for souls....to put people in bondage. While promising them life they bring death. And many believers are victims of a decoy that...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    All theoretical. And nonsensical. Just more lack of understanding using words you don't know about in reality. The proof of abiding in Christ is that we walk above sin...in the Spirit. NO sin is possible. In Him is NO sin. Abide in Him and you don't sin. You need to come OUT from Him to indulge...

    Trainspotting?

    Who were the Early Church Fathers after the Apostles?

    After the time of the apostles was the time of the bishops. Two of which were known to be disciples of John. Polycarp of Smyrna....and Ignatius of Antioch. Clement was bishop of Rome at that time too. Ignatius was bishop before 100 AD and was appointed by John. What is sadly lacking is the...

    A Great sinner

    It's sounds like you are finished all right. You are done. And you have completely missed Paul's message.
  13. Episkopos

    @Behold, would you expound the following:

    I can play devil's advocate. ;) Behold states...There is no sin in Christ so then by claiming to be in Christ I can also claim to have no sin. In Him is no sin. (simple lawyer strategy) And on weekends I can dress up as superman and claim to leap over tall buildings in a single bound. (The...

    A Great sinner

    Being free from sin-consciousness is spiritual leprosy. A terrible wasting disease. A spiritual leprosy is an eternal outcast destiny. We need to be conscious of our sins to preserve our lives in reality. We need an actual victory over sin itself...not a victory over sin-consciousness.

    The Twins

    Really. You tend to vastly underestimate God with your lack of understanding a bigger context....while trying to limit God to a much smaller context. Many children of the kingdom...born again people...will be cast into outer darkness. But maybe your own hatred for the Jews makes you think God...

    A Great sinner

    It's easy to understand Behold's position. Just take a carnal man and recite spiritual verses to him. Then make him to believe there is a fantasy world whereby one can claim all the good sounding verses while ignoring all the other verses that go against a carnal preference. Et voila...the...

    A Great sinner

    Behold believes resisting sin by a human effort is WORSE than sinning. He thinks that because he considers grace as a license to sin....licentiousness...any effort against sin is a bigger sin. In his warped logic he is afraid to go against his own false understanding of grace. So then a...

    The Twins

    With all your human interpretations and limiting of God, you must consider that Jesus never realized that His words would someday be read by people other than the Jews. It's too bad Jesus knew so little...and you are so much wiser in your generation so you could veto His words as unknowing of...

    The Twins

    I already said that the verse you are quoting makes a convoluted translation that is missing the idea that we need to listen to God....not believe ON Him....that is not in the text. We are to HEAR His word and believe Him who sent Jesus...the Father. (Not believe ABOUT Him) So you can try...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    You are a slow learner...actually too stiff necked to learn anything. Born again is but a deposit. A sample. TASTE and see the Lord is good. But to abide IN Christ in Zion one must forsake everything in this world. You can't serve God and this world. Or yourself...as you are doing. So there...
