OK You can read what I'm saying to you. Your English comprehension seems to be very good. But then add a bible verse and your reading comprehension goes out the window. So either I don't talk to you...or express in some way that this is not acceptable in a discussion. I expect the same level of...

English. But I get along perfectly in French as well. :) English in the house....and mostly French outside the house.

For sure. I don't know how God deals with other people. Perfect love casts out all fear. Maybe some of us still need some fear of God in our lives.

Watchman Nee was asked what effect the deeper work of the cross has on a brother in Christ. What did a broken man in Christ look like? In response brother Nee took a cookie from the table and broke it in half. Then, he pushed the pieces back together...saying...this cookie, like such a brother...

Before God no flesh will be justified. But God will judge who is righteous. The distinction may seem subtle...but it comes down to...who is doing the justifying? How many believers in Jesus justify themselves because of their beliefs? So we can't stand before God with either our own works OR...

I don't think He wants us to be fearful for His sake. But for our own. A person who fears God will be extra careful to do what is right. I think the requirement may vary from person to person. We can be confident in the Lord and come boldly before Him. But there is a difference between being...

Yes...a person who enters Christ enters into His righteousness. But i believe the bible teaches precisely the opposite of what people are taught in so many churches....that is....when we are in Christ....God sees US as righteous. We, on the other hand only see Christ. We do not esteem our own...

I see an emphasis on safety. This is sometimes called 'security". But security comes at the expense of freedom. And people HATE real freedom.

It does say..."fear and trembling." God loves for people to fear Him. It takes faith to do that. We are supposed to "tremble at His word". I remember having a vision one morning...it was about a minister I was traveling with. In that vision the Lord's angel was passing over in judgment over...

Of course. There's nothing like self-approval as a witness to the truth.

or...his dog. A talking dog.

There's a lot of these DEMONstrations here lately. ;)

So you are saying you don't have one? A testimony? May the Lord grant you one!

We need to be renewed in our minds...otherwise we corrupt what God has put in our renewed hearts. God renews the hearts...but we must submit our minds to the Lord for renewal. Our minds are the battlefield. I call it the mind-field. ;)

So you read the verse but didn't understand it. God recognized that Lot was indeed righteous....on his own. In the OT men had to sanctify themselves. In the OT God was looking for righteous men...like Job. He wasn't making them righteous....He was testing them to see HOW righteous they were...

But you are humble...which makes you very knowledgeable...where it counts! :)

You mean my English reading skills AND my lack of religious indoctrination. ;) Hey in the land of the blind the one-eyed man is king. So do you recognize that Lot was righteous? or are you going to stick with your misunderstanding that "none" is righteous...no not ONE?

This is an opinion...which is very biased. The bible speaks of BOTH Father and Son creating the universe as ELOHIM... Let US create man in OUR image. But you can't see the plural.

All this is false. The additions to the text in Gen. 4:1 are not in the original DSS manuscript. They are Aramaic targums that add the lies in....from the understanding of men. So all this proves is that the opinion about the serpent seed (from early Kabbalah) goes back to ancient times...

This is so obviously false. You are missing the main point again here. Lot (a resident of Sodom) WAS righteous in God's eyes. Your denial of this just shows a wilful ignorance. 2 Pet. 2:7 and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless 8 (for...
