    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    We are the ones who leave God...we forsake God as you do because we look for something for ourselves....selfishly. God is completely selfless and the only way to remain in Him (abide) is to ALSO be completely selfless. So we cannot remain long in His presence until we become as Jesus Himself...

    Not at all. You are esteeming yourself too highly...as all who live in their own egos will do. So you are just a cultivated religious ego. An indoctrinated person who has believed a decoy gospel that caters to fallen men with enlarged egos. Of course the righteousness of God is found IN...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    Gnosticism is a way for people to be saved by their beliefs while ignoring how they are behaving in their bodies. So it is looking for a right belief...a right or "saving" belief. Once a person has believed they have believed right...then they can justify themselves no matter what their...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    You preach Gnosticism. A belief is just an opinion. So you think you are saved by having an opinion that is based on justifying yourself while still being self-centered. So it is just a bible ego boost. You want to dull your conscience so you don't FEEL like you are sinning as you sin worse...

    A Great sinner

    Completely false. You don't kill the flesh by pampering it. God does not appease the ego. That's what the devil does. And in your case it is working. And in the REAL parable the servant who didn't forgive the debt of another had his own forgiveness taken away. God's forgiveness IS conditional...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    Abiding in God is NOT of the flesh. You are of the flesh while claiming to be of the Spirit. So you are deceived IN yourself. Your ego brought you here. And your ego propels you to justify yourself...CONSTANTLY. Anybody who has ANY actual experience with God will see through you. But you are...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    You have it backwards. You are trusting in God by GOING TO GOD to be crucified. Otherwise you are leaning on your own understanding in thinking that a gift justifies you from condemnation. All of your posts are twisted...you are relying on yourself and your own errors in understanding. You are...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    We work out our salvation by being purged from the iniquity that is in every man....and this AFTER being born again. They who are purged from their soulish power will be vessels of honour. And they who claim mighty things for themselves because of an equipping gift....without being crucified in...

    The Twins

    Still no saved status there. Still no guarantee of entering into the kingdom. It doesn't say all born again people will see or enter the kingdom. Being born again is but a pre-requisite that makes it POSSIBLE to do so. We are born again into a race of faith at a higher level than the world. How...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    If you read a superman comic book...would you claim afterwards to be able to leap tall buildings in a single bound and fly faster than a speeding bullet...because you read about it?
  11. Episkopos

    The Twins

    No guarantee of anything there. Jesus is being factual. Like saying...unless you climb a tree you can't see over the wall. But people will read in things by leaning on their own understanding. Can you find a verse that speaks of that?

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    Anybody can claim that...it's easy...just read the bible and claim all the good stuff for yourself while ignoring all the admonitions, teachings and warnings. Also dump any humility and fear of God in favour of a smug self-assurance. :) You forgot from your list 17. Self-justified 18...

    Maybe you have a bad translation. Could you post your version of the bible where it talks about salvation?

    The Twins

    LOL...Now read it. Without a human selfish interpretation.

    The Twins

    You need to find a de-programmer. Where does it say in the bible that you must be born again to be saved? Do you realize that seeing the kingdom of God is about a spiritual faculty not some invented religious saved status? Do you realize what indoctrination is? What hypnotic suggestion is...

    The Twins

    Again....so off. So where does it say that the poor man Lazarus was born again? Show us from the word!!! Your error is so great as to be fully against the biblical teaching. You need to learn a lot more before you can state anything close to the truth. God is merciful on the poor and they...

    Becoming a perfect Disciple of Christ

    First you can't claim the blood of Jesus for yourself. There is a sovereign God. This is not like a riot where you can break in and steal whatever you want. Jesus is coming as a thief in the night to take away what so many believe they have greedily obtained by their own religious beliefs. The...

    The Twins

    Man...you agree with a complete fabrication based on a religious intolerance and false spirituality? You haven't understood the gospel or the kind of attitude or discernment that it takes to avoid a superficial and self-serving view of God and the way people try using Him to serve themselves...

    The Twins

    So you see yourself on Jesus' level now. You can't tell the difference between an invention of yours and eternal truth. You are really far gone. Inventions from your own religious imagination is not the same as making a proper parable. A fantasy world that you are inviting people to join is...

    What is "Amazing Grace"?

    I don't see you being called to do that. I think you are learning doctrine...very slowly...because a humble person learns faster than one who thinks he's been specially appointed by God before he fully understands what the bible is testifying of.
