Good grief. :rolleyes: Debating with you is a complete waste of time.

Are you calling me and all other believers who use the phrases - "self righteousness," "Trinity" and "God-man" a heretic? That judgment call of believers is well above your pay grade. Self righteousness is taught in the Bible. In the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector, we read - And...

Self righteousness stems from PRIDE (and not from righteousness) which we all know is sin. (Luke 18:9-14) How do we become righteous? (Romans 4:5-6; Philippians 3:9)

At the hands of the spostles, many signs and wonders were performed, yes. The source was not teaching against this and simply said widespread supernatural powers. Nothing faithless about that. What's faithless is trusting in self for salvation and not in CHRIST ALONE. Self righteousness and self...

You are the master of irony. Extra-biblical source? That source quotes Scripture and iron sharpens iron. I've already read the entire KJV multiple times, along with other translations as well.

I believe the Holy Scriptures. I just don't believe your misinterpretation of Scripture. 1 Peter 4:1 - Therefore, since Christ suffered in the flesh [and died for us], arm yourselves [like warriors] with the same purpose [being willing to suffer for doing what is right and pleasing God]...

1 Peter 4:1 - Therefore, since Christ suffered in the flesh [and died for us], arm yourselves [like warriors] with the same purpose [being willing to suffer for doing what is right and pleasing God], because whoever has suffered in the flesh [being like-minded with Christ] is done with...

Jesus did not lie to them and like I already said, Jesus cannot compromise His perfect, holy standard. It blows my mind that you actually believe you are sinless 100% of the time in word, thought and deed, exactly like Jesus.

There is a difference between what is our goal and what the reality of our existence tells us. I often hear people who promote "sinless perfection" quote John 8:11, in which Jesus told the woman caught in adultery to "go and sin no more." Jesus was telling the woman to go and leave her life of...

Well said! Prior to my conversion, while still attending the Roman Catholic church several years ago, I basically saw God as a tyrant who couldn't wait to punish me every time I messed up and I had absolutely no assurance of salvation whatsoever. That is an unhealthy fear! Works-salvationists...

No contradiction. 1 John 3:9 does not teach your 'surface read' biased interpretation of 'sinless perfection' from your pet English translation - KJV. The NASB reads - No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. The...

Good post! We are saved from the PENALTY of sin when we are justified and also 'set apart/made holy' as a child of God positionally in Christ. Through progressive sanctification we are being saved from the POWER of sin and our final sanctification (glorification) we will be saved from the...

What are you talking about? A sheep is not a dog or a pig and dog's and pig's are not sheep.

Ephesians 1:13 - In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of...

Yes, to "sin willfully" in the Greek carries the idea of deliberate intention that is habitual, which stems from rejecting Christ deliberately. This is continuous action, a matter of practice. Yes it is! Those who are truly born of God have received a new nature, a divine nature. They have...

Amen! It's not about flawless or lawless as sinless perfectionists seem to believe.

Actions speak louder than words.

Typical straw man argument. You relentlessly attack the truth. Sinless perfectionists suffer from a terminal case of self righteousness. (1 John 1:8-10)

You actually believe that? o_O

I see that you remain bitter and disgruntled over being banned from Christian Chat and you blame the OSAS crowd for it and you also seem determined to relentlessly attack and slander OSAS believers (along with promoting yourself as sinless 100% of the time) which is in contradiction to...
