  1. Episkopos

    Calvinism?

    Many are called...not all. Don't assume (from your box) that God doesn't have different levels of expectations for some but not others. To whom much is given MORE is required. So then the recipients of grace will be judged the hardest of all. Precisely the opposite of human opinion on the matter.

    Calvinism?

    What I'm saying is that you are putting God in a box...stamping it with a religious looking seal...and then judging everyone as the same. Some people will never become Christians...and yet even a cup of cold water given to a brother...because he is a brother...will not lose his reward. If you...

    Getting Grace Right

    The merry go round is that a lot of people have Christ IN them but no 2 people seem to agree on anything. So then the born again experience is incomplete. It is incomplete without also entering into Christ. So people will try to rationalize away the entrance into Christ ...their whole lives...

    The Undiscovered Christ

    Agnostic stance...wadr...prolly. ;)
  5. Episkopos

    Calvinism?

    But you are forgetting that fire also gives off heat. It is not only those who are in the fire that are warm...but also the ones around it. I say this to illustrate that the idea that man is evil...is false....or that man stands against everything that God stands for. This is a man-made...

    Getting Grace Right

    The Holy Spirit has more than one faculty. Eating the flesh of Jesus is to feed on His word....so that Jesus is within us. Drinking His blood is to partake of His life. We do this by entering INTO Him. So then eating is about Christ in us...and drinking is about abiding in Christ...us in Him...

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    You should say..."what is presently perceived as a false interpretation by us humans"....then you could leave some wiggle room if you never got with the truth...or to get with it. :)

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    And that religion is not religious. It does good works. False religion claims things about God that aren't true based on a very human interpretation of the bible. That's the part you aren't getting.

    The Key of David.

    A key can not only unlock...but can also lock. So when are the doors locked? When we continually grieve the Spirit...or offend the brethren in words and actions. When we claim much but have done nothing. When we claim to know much and have seen nothing. God said...I swore in My wrath...they...

    Getting Grace Right

    God doesn't test us beyond what we are capable of. But He does expect our full effort. Until that happens God willnot make a move towards us...and I'm talking about a person who has been a believer for awhile. The blood of Jesus is the LIFE of Jesus. We partake of His blood as we partake of...

    The Righteous

    Our righteousness has to do with what God thinks we are doing. He is the judge. So if you believe a person can be obedient to God...without even realizing it...then we are agreed! :) Remember when Jesus said...if you didn't say "I see" then you would have no sin. But as long as a person...

    That's Impossible

    We can enter into the kingdom life right now by faith. By faith we can put on Christ and walk as Jesus and with Jesus...in Zion. In His dimension there is love....and the eternal light of God. Now that's impossible!
  13. Episkopos

    The Undiscovered Christ

    What do you mean judge others. I am telling you about the kingdom of God. What judges people is their statement that they believe yet they don't enter. I want to encourage people to enter...so that they won't be judged. So sometimes the very opposite to what one might expect is happening. I...

    The Undiscovered Christ

    But we can know His ways. To not know His ways means we will offend the Spirit in some way. So we are called to walk IN Christ...in Zion where He is. We can walk in 2 dimensions at once. His dimension is full of light and love. It is the best kept secret in the world. There is life waiting for...

    The Undiscovered Christ

    But everything in the bible points to a person...not an abstract thought or a religious dogma. People will wag their heads and maybe agree that God is looking for a real relationship. But they will disagree when it comes to the real knowledge of God. That is because for them....it's not real...

    The Undiscovered Christ

    You don't believe that God can visit people? Or that a person can go to Zion or even the throne room for a visit? That's the whole purpose of being reconciled to God. John says...OUR fellowship is with the Father and His Son Jesus Christ. You don't have fellowship with your eyes closed.
  17. Episkopos

    propitiation by His blood, through faith

    God hates religion.

    The Undiscovered Christ

    I have. If I was to deny it I would be lying. I have seen a lot of things...
  19. Episkopos

    The Undiscovered Christ

    I agree that so often creeds do more harm than good. It is a human way of 'helping God'. A human way of trying to conform others to Christ....but NOT by the Spirit.
