Because of religious pride and obstinate unbelief....it is difficult to post bible verses that speak of victory in Christ over the things of this world and the power of the flesh. Modern believers don't believe it for the most part. And to make things worse is to testify to the truth of the...

Again you are denying Christ in others. You make this about yourself and then try to rope me into your situation...so that without Christ my life looks like yours. Why do you do that? Why must you act with so much guile and bad motives? But you aren't listening. IN Christ is no sin. I have...

I took this from another site...but was surprised at how accurate this is... The living Jesus empowers us to die and His cross is the symbol of sacrifice and death. To live for Him is to die to ourselves and the world. As we move forward in our lives and become more like Jesus, we have to...

What is to marvel at is...they who cannot or will not understand the gospel...are really not meant to perceive it. At one point we must accept that it is God who softens and hardens hearts. He looks at our attitude. If we must pass everything through our minds first...He will not reveal Himself...

A crucial thing to understand is that spiritual people go in and out of the Spirit. So then perfection is experienced in this way. We stay in the Spirit as long as our spiritual maturity holds up against, temptation, the wiles of the devil etc... What is normal for a spiritual person is that he...

Since your reading comprehension is so poor...I will repeat the same answer again...for the sake of they who are reading this thread and have some reading comprehension. (although they will have already understood what I have said) I am not perfect. Jesus is perfect. But the gospel is that I...

Of course. The gift of God is salvation power now (grace) to walk in a way that when we are judged we will be deemed righteous. God isn't blind and grace does not make Him blind. He judges the righteous as righteous...the dishonest as dishonest...the humble as humble...etc... But you are...

It's a horrible depiction of God to claim mercy for oneself and not the same mercy for others. Jesus died for the sins of the whole world. Some people claim to be justified so that salvation is exclusive to themselves. But God judges the judges. Judge not lest you be judged.

We can trust that God will judge all men according to their works. Now is the time for grace...but on judgment day it will be only works that will be made manifest. It will be about what we have done with what we have been given. And the surprise of many will be great. Especially they who...

Why are so many obsessed with self? Why do we limit ourselves to what the natural man can do or not do....and deny the heavenly gift (grace) and what God can do through us and in us? To do so is to be stuck on the law without understanding grace. In truth and experientially...Jesus Christ is...

Are you obsessed with self? You are only focusing on the natural man....not the heavenly gift (grace). So really you are stuck on the law without understanding grace. I'm saying that in truth and experientially...Jesus Christ is perfect. He is our perfection. Walk in Him. We are the...

Suffering is as a refining fire that takes us away from the superficial into that which has real benefit.

There are three levels of knowledge. I recently saw a pie chart that showed the three levels... 1. What we know 2. What we know we don't know 3. What we don't know we don't know In the pie chart the first was like 1 percent of all knowledge...and the 2nd was like 2 percent....and the rest was...

First you need to state what you are trying to say in the OP. Do you understand the kingdom of God? Have you experienced the eternal walk?

By catholic do you mean someone who reads the bible...or just believes the word? See we all have different definitions to words. So you see the believers who read the bible away from a Protestant type of indoctrination as catholic? Interesting. No. I am called of Jesus Christ to follow...

Grace is unmerited power...in the NT. You are relying on the human understanding...but not God's word. 2 Corinthians 12:9 9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the...

You are confusing grace with mercy. Grace IS that touch from God...it is His presence and keeping power. It is also the power that raises the dead and heals the sick. It is God's strength in us. His grace in OUR weakness. You should do a study on grace....apart from the modern errors. :)...

This is a good start! So you do believe that being filled with grace leaves no room for sins. Yes! IF rivers of life are flowing out of us then no sin can fight it's way in against that flowing tide. Being filled with the Spirit. But that doesn't happen automatically. One must seek hard for...

1. The pandemic is about a bad strain of flu that affects compromised immune systems in mainly older people. 2. Almost all the world's leaders are older people with somewhat compromised immune systems (if not consciences!) 3. They get to shut everything down because they can because they are...

So then...honestly...you believe that when we abide in Christ we don't sin? That...in Him is NO sin? Or are you being gnostic and dishonest? And perhaps you are being confined so much in quarantine that you haven't noticed that at least half the forum doesn't believe in overcoming all sin in...
