A false message meaning the bible? Why don't people realize that their understanding is way off when someone posts a bible verse and people think he is in error?

Grace is the power to walk as Jesus walked...otherwise you are still under the law. There is no such thing as an immune sinner. A person who sins is under the law. A person who lives by grace is OVER the law. Grace is the power OVER sin. That is how we know we are walking by grace or in our...

I am speaking in regards to the truth. An indoctrinated person learns more about his indoctrination....not away from it.

There is an amazing parallel to this warning (which few if any will heed) found in Zech. 5 with the "flying scroll." One one side of the scroll is written....the thieves will be cut off. This fits with Jesus' saying that they who seek to enter to the sheepfold (the church) but without going...

People are seeking a connection with God...an eternal kind of life. But people get pep talks and information. In order to impart life, one needs to speak from life. From faith to faith.

It isn't so much being ignorant of scripture...a lot of people know chapter and verse quite thoroughly. But it's the comprehension of the bible that is lacking to an amazing degree. Most modern ministers are regurgitating what they have leaned from other people. Very few have any real connection...

A person with religious beliefs is not teachable. Go find some indoctrinated person...now try teaching that person something that goes against his indoctrination...good luck.

Grace comes with a very high responsibility. To whom much is given MORE (not less) is required.

In a time of watered down doctrines speaking the truth becomes a revolutionary act! At one time, calling people into a deeper holiness was seen as a good thing. No longer....

What I write is not like the teachings that are meant to be mindlessly believed and memorized so common these days. They are to challenge us to go further into Christ...a horror for many I realize. But the doctrines I teach are very old....and found in the bible. It's just that deeper truths are...

...not to doubtful disputations. Iron sharpens iron...but there is a limit.

A good example of this is the tithing issue...also called first fruits. Since in the OT it was crops, oil and such, many choose to ignore the idea in principle. They say that we no longer have to tithe because we aren't farmers. But the first fruits of our increase...well nowadays the only way...

Not every thread is about you personally.

Not the act of believing but a belief system. Having a set of dogmas or doctrines that one believes gives them advantage.

Read the bible as to how the Holy Spirit speaks. Now compare that to a human political election...and decide what is taking place when the "pontifex maximus" (itself a pagan position) is voted for. If you wish to remain in the dark....do so.

You believe in physical things...just not spiritual things. But the visible things that you walk by sight to believe in are temporal. The invisible things that require faith and that are eternal...you mock as if they were make-believe. So then why profess to be a Christian if you are...

The truth that you can't bear. The sound doctrine that you cannot endure. You show where you are on the spiritual spectrum by your vantage point...which is out of the way. Such things as the truth appear as foolishness to the carnally minded. Anything spiritual or deeper seems fantastical. But...

Phil. 3:17 Brethren, join in following my example, and observe those who walk according to the pattern you have in us. 18 For many walk, of whom I often told you, and now tell you even weeping, that they are enemies of the cross of Christ, 19 whose end is destruction, whose god is their...

You're not saying anything...just claiming lofty things for yourself. A messenger has something to say. You are just displaying an active imagination.

Belief never questions itself. Beliefs come in a package...if one point fails it all fails. So then belief cannot repent. There is nothing to repent to. But faith is living and moves. Faith questions all things and holds fast that which is life-giving. Faith isn't worried about getting things...
