Obedience through grace is not self-effort. You are not understanding grace. Faith without works is dead. You need to go back to the bible and try understanding it's message without contradicting half the verses in it. The gift is to BE obedient with. To do holy works that we will be judged...

People still sinned under the law. So you are exaggerating the power that the law can produce. There is NO power in the law. The law is like a voltmeter to see what power IS there. The law has no other power source then the obedience of men. The problem with the law is that men are forced to try...

Paul was after holiness and to walk by the resurrection power of Christ. And that Christ be FORMED in him. And that is a level that modern believers are not after...yet they quote Paul as if they already had attained to what Paul sought after. A truly amazing lack of reality. The law...

This is so false. Obedience to God is not an option. Obedience is not a gospel of works. A gospel of works is about having to become a Jew and do the law of Moses. To make this about an optional obedience to God is the biggest lie out there...and a lot of people fall for it...because they don't...

Episkopos said: ↑ A crucified person does not sin and cannot sin because the part of him that sins is crucified. Behold replied: And this explains why you sin and repent. Got it. So then only uncrucified people get to NOT repent. Makes sense.

Students of Paul? Disciples of Paul's epistles? 2 Pet. 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

The bible speaks of more things than you can wrap your mind around by your feelings and experiences. Let God's words be God's words. As in..."God never mentioned anything to me about creating meteors. Why didn't He consult me"? :eek:o_O Someone who fights against the truth of the bible is...

Someone who fights against the truth of the bible is putting their opinions, feelings, ideas...ahead of the truth. As such that person is not just uncrucified....but also unwilling to carry their own cross.

The Race of Faith Heb. 12 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our...

We carry our crosses to the place where we become crucified...after that HIS cross carries us. We then carry His death in the body so that His life can be made manifest in the world in these mortal bodies. 2 Cor. 4:10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life...

To pick our crosses and follow Him. To take ourselves to the place of execution...the cross of Christ. And then to walk faithfully till the end.

We are indeed in a competition...and this against other generations in corporate sense. Jesus often compares one generation to another...as in..."to what shall I liken this generation!?" Our present generation of believers is the most foolish of all...hence the coming time of the 10...

More faux outrage. It's like you can't remember anything you posted... Others can see through the charade. While you never actually said "sin as you wish"...you have stated over and over that you don't believe in repentance or any kind of effort to be righteous...calling that works. So you'd...

The tent of David takes into account the corporate nature of the will of God that we be one. We need one another to fulfill the transition into the kingdom life. God has called out for Himself a people...and they who fulfill His requirements will move on into glory. We are in a race. We need to...

I teach a gospel according to power...that works. Your scheme doesn't work. What you desire and preach is a make believe wishful thinking from a self-centered human who needs for Jesus to continue to be on the cross for him. To constantly clean up his mess. To cater to the flesh. To please the...

This is false. We do indeed partake of His holiness by "abiding" in Him. You are agreeing with the opposite of truth and the truth you will always oppose. Heb. 12:10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his...

But people are more easily led astray by using vague undefined notions that tickle the ears. if you want to know more about that kind of thing...just ask Behold.

Talk about a faux outrage. The goodness of God? That you can sin as you wish? Even how you portray good shows up your religion for what it is. It is vain. And we do have a very powerful provision over sin...but it takes a real experience of the cross. So to the truth you are resisting and...

The finished work of Christ does not mean we are finished in our own work. That is a very great heresy. it pushes all responsibility for sin on Jesus...as if He is responsible for our bad choices. Many are called but few are chosen. The path to life is narrow...as well as the doorway. Most will...

This is a very common error that is held by a few on this forum. We are not born again mature or discerning or sinless. The purpose of being born again is to put us into a spiritual race of faith...the end of which is glory AND the salvation of our souls. We are born again into the wilderness...
