    Testing the Spirits

    Yes, God is awesome. Psalm 47:1-3 Oh, clap your hands, all you peoples! Shout to God with the voice of triumph! 2 For the Lord Most High is awesome; He is a great King over all the earth. 3 He will subdue the peoples under us, And the nations under our feet. cc: @faithfulness

    ROFL You've just made the opposite point.

    I just explained why Paul said "I." If you don't want to learn anything outside of your small box of learning, so be it. It is your opportunity to lose if you choose to. At least my heart was in the right place to teach you. By the way, not being in the flesh but in the Spirit, is not after we die.

    You are reading it with a western mindset. I think it was you I was showing Semitic writing styles. First person, present tense is another one. Take, for example, Romans 7:9 "I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died." Paul is talking about mankind...

    Testing the Spirits

    I would love to experience being slain in the Spirit. Though people go down on both sides of me, I've never felt anything - except, occasionally, someone trying to push me. But I truly believe what they tell me. My next door neighbor was attending a Baptist church and they did ask people who...

    Why did he also say we are dead to sin? Obviously he was referring to the heinous acts he did while yet a sinner. He was still feeling the shame of those acts, not that he was still doing them.

    You say you walk in the Spirit. But you also argue for being a sinner. Which is it? The law is for sinners, and not for the righteous. And yet, you say you are not under the law. knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the...

    Because you don't have evidence of the Spirit of God in you, and don't know any better, I'm not going to report you...this time.

    Romans 3:19 "Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God" 1 Timothy 1:8-11 "But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully, 9 knowing this: that the law is not made for...

    The Jews met on the Sabbath in the temple. If you want to preach to them, you have to go where they are. You have interpreted Colossians 2:16 completely opposite of what is meant. Where is there an example of what you are saying? There is none. What Paul is saying is don't let Judaizers of the...

    Jesus kept the Ten Commandments, but His new commandments go far deeper than the surface commandments of Exodus 20. That is how they are different. Keeping just the Ten Commandments, one could break the commandments of Jesus. Keeping the commandments of Jesus, one cannot break the Ten...

    "The law is not of faith." You cannot receive the gift of the Holy Spirit by any other means than repenting of all sin unto Jesus. Without the Holy Spirit you are not saved, no matter if you rotely keep every commandment of sin and death.

    No it doesn't. Not if you have the Holy Spirit. He, Himself, shows you what is sin, not the law, because it goes far beyond the laws of sin and death. It goes even to small trespasses that prevent us from being perfect. He helps us overcome even them. Does that sound like lawlessness to you...

    Neither are in the New Covenant. Can you show me where they are? That is in your own mind. We are to enter God's true rest. The rest Jesus entered into after He completed His own works. Grace. All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I...

    The Father's commands are the Ten Commandments. Exodus 20 Jesus' commands are to have faith in Himself, and to love. 1 John 3:23 Galatians 3:19 What purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was...

    Yes, we obey the leading of the Spirit. We are not to quench the Spirit, and willfully sin. Hebrews 10:26-31 shows us how perilous that can be, even bringing us again to perdition.

    The law had its purpose, but was only meant to be temporary to bring us to Christ. Once we have Christ, He gives us His Spirit to walk in. Its a whole new method of righteousness, that is more complete. Galatians 3:22-24 22 But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith...
