    The Problem With The Trinity

    To actually enter into Zion....a spiritual realm....where one sees where Jesus lives. It is slightly out of focus because of our human senses. But as we fix our eyes on the kingdom...this world goes out of focus...so that we are no longer drawn to it. THAT is abiding in Christ. Walking EXACTLY...

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    If we would rejoice in humility...without claiming great things for ourselves or judging others...then we could be full of joy and confident in the mercy of God. (Always maintaining the fear that keeps us in our place) From THERE we can seek the Lord if perhaps He would take us higher....WHEN...

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    I think it is important to play by God's rules. That's the purpose of fearing God. So if you can't walk without sin by grace....then be humble. If you can't overcome all things by faith...then be humble. If you can't love God and seek His kingdom to the right degree (all)...then be humble. It...

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    Yes....especially among Christians....because that is what is taught. People mix things up without realizing it. That's why few should teach.

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    The mixture is iniquity. Mixing spiritual things with carnal things. Mixing the law and grace. Destroying righteousness in others to be seen as righteous yourself....Saying you see when you don't...etc.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    And Jesus said that the whole law was fulfilled by 2 commandments...loving God and loving others. The first is according to holiness (leading to a higher righteousness) and the second according to righteousness. But the minimum standard is to love others as yourself. Holiness is by calling and...

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    Yes... The whole counsel of God...from Genesis to Revelation speaks of the 4 destinies. It is hidden in plain sight. There are 4 courses or paths that are defined for men to walk in. There is the path the wicked take...to destruction. There is the path of the righteous that leads to mercy...

    Ezekiel 21 Destroy the Righteous Along With the Wicked

    Jesus said to the Pharisees...if you didn't say "we see" ....you would have no sin. IOW their sin was presumption and pride. Many Christians do this too. So then everything looks fine until... So the filthy are just the righteous who soil their garments with lies and iniquities. As for...

    Calvinism?

    I don't know about Caesarea being in the back of Jesus' mind...I was thinking more like Mount Zion... Ps. 125:1 They that trust in Jehovah Are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever. I think it was to show that faith is NOT human belief and opinions. Faith moves the...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    The whole law is to fear God and keep His commandments. But the purpose of grace is to be in relationship with the living God. :)

    Teaching style and value.

    Why assume? Not many believers tarry before the Lord to be baptized in the Spirit. Not in these times. And there is much counterfeiting going on. We live in a time of fast food and quick fixes. But God won't be rushed or manipulated. We live in a consumer generation...but God is not a...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    Again...what is the meaning of any of this? What do you mean by remain? Hold to your opinion? What do you mean by power? Your own strength but in a religious sense? Anybody can adapt a lingo into a very human observance...and say...see I'm doing it.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    By not abiding in Christ. What does that mean to be strong in the Spirit? A term may mean something to someone...but not line up with the word. His strength is made full in our weakness.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    Rather...you don't understand the power of His life. Sin is not possible when we abide in Christ. But you can try following the law all day long...and still sin through the weakness of the flesh.

    The Problem With The Trinity

    You are contradicting yourself here....you do in fact try to obey the law...not only to be righteous but also holy. That is why you are so disturbed at those who choose a living holiness apart from the works of the law. The Jews did what you are doing and missed the true righteousness. Yet the...

    Calvinism?

    But that faith must be informed by experience...otherwise what is your faith getting you? Many walk in their beliefs...a human belief. We see religious fanatics in other religions that are fully engaged in their beliefs about God. They are waiting for the next life for their first glimpse at the...

    The Problem With The Trinity

    In the OT men had to sanctify themselves...and be clean according to the law...eating only what was according to the law. In the NT all that has been done away with...because the holiness has changed. Now we enter into Christ to partake of his life. To deny this is frustrate the grace of God in...

    Books Outside the Bible

    Amen. By faith Enoch was translated...just as we by faith are also translated to walk in the Spirit. If we live in a way that is pleasing to God...He takes us into the Spirit. Col. 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

    Calvinism?

    That's funny. I've tried talking with you...about basic things like reading things that are in the bible...without adding other words that change the basic and simple meaning. It is impossible to reason with a person who is dishonest in their reading of the bible. Something has to happen for...
