You've had many responses to your post. You need to address those individually as to what you agree with or disagree with and why. Manners.

Yes, absolutely. The Bible distinguishes between types of sins, so I will also. 1 John 5:16-17 16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray...

Still side-stepping the question I see. You must have some opinion of what Paul meant in Hebrews 4 of entering into God's rest. What is it? What is entering into God's rest?

You have to ask yourself why Jesus wrote a letter to the age of the Reformation, called Sardis, and called it the dead church. It is the most dangerous doctrine in the Church and will lead many to hell. But it also says not everyone holds to the false doctrines that contradict the written word...

I've had many debates with Calvinists on the forums over the years, and all believe the sins they still commit are forgiven because of their faith in Jesus alone. Obedience to them is a "work" - another twist of scripture. They even hold up Maritin Luther as having said to sin boldly. Paul spoke...

Faith "alone" is not in the Bible; that's the point. The Reformation added the word "alone" to say all you need to do is believe in Jesus and the sins you keep committing are forgiven. No! You don't keep on committing willful sins. That is what is unscriptural, but was a false teaching even in...

@bbyrd009 I'm glad you like this post, but can you answer the question?

To no longer commit sin? No. I said: "I agree as long as you mean that when you are dead to sin, you no longer commit willful sins. I am not saying, "He takes away SIN; but you can Still Sin." Just the opposite. The Holy Spirit prevents you from committing willful sin, IF indeed we have the...

WHAT DOES IT MEAN? Is it because you don't know that you are avoiding the question? What does entering into God's rest mean? In Hebrews 4

Your mistake is not recognizing what commandments are written on the heart. That is called tunnel vision to assume they are the old covenant commandments that could not make anyone righteous.

Hi Nancy. There are some common teachings in the church since the Reformation, and the adding of "alone" to "the just shall live by faith." One of them is the phrase "past, present and future sins." That just isn't scriptural. It is our PAST sins that are dealt with. We are just as if we had...

@Taken Your post needs some editing regarding quote marks to display properly, but I did copy this. I agree with this, but am puzzled, by you saying this....AND your opening statement... Seems contradictory. I'm not being contradictory so what is it you misunderstood. Ask me a question that...

@bbyrd009 I asked you a question you didn't answer. "You are only seeing the 10C as Law, but not as Covenant. It was under the OLD Covenant. We are under the NEW Covenant which is not the same as the old in that it has higher standards, and the true meaning of the Sabbath is revealed. Not kept...

Just curious because I absolutely love Seventh-day Adventists. They might not understand the New Covenant, and I want them to grow in the baptism of the Holy Spirit and know the New Covenant, but it is a fact that God honors their convictions, just as He still honors national Israel even though...

Same thing. It is the eyes of our mind. But more than mere thinking. It is listening for His voice. "My sheep hear my voice." This is how we walk in the Spirit - listening. We are guided by rhemas. And rhemas are the spoken word of God to our spirit, whether a verse jumps off the page at you...

Curious - are you Seventh-day Adventist? I don't know.

I'm curious of your stand on what I wrote in #2.

Sorry, I'm not getting your point if there is one.

That would be best for me, but not for you. But you do what you want.

I agree as long as you mean that when you are dead to sin, you no longer commit willful sins. One thing I take exception with is "That means their sin is covered. It means Sinners don't have to go to hell because of their sin but because they do not believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, John 3:18."...
