Apak.... You are just reading in your own understanding into my words....as you do the bible. I am speaking of things you have never considered....so you bring down what I am saying to what your own mind can come up with. You say that I am saying a man can justify himself....when I said that...

First when Paul says a "woman" he means "a wife"...not just a woman per se. In Greek there is no word for "wife" besides "woman". It is the same in French and I'm sure other languages as well. Back in the day they had this thing called honour. It was dishonourable for a man to be seen as under...

But there is but one truth. And we are living in a time where people can't abide sound doctrine. So they make all kinds of wild proclamations...that do injustice to the word of God. Take the OP for example....

Everybody knows how to read here....but the question is about understanding the text without any religious preference or prejudice. And maybe perhaps an actual intimate relationship with the Lord????

Please....Who executed judgment? Phinehas. This is tiresome...just read the text without the religious conditioning.

You are showing more and more how little understanding you have of anything biblical. It amazes me really. You can try propping up this lack by making lists....but lists have never held any weight in the matters of God. Anyone familiar with biblical ideas would know that, of course. You deny...

Another fire insurance salesman... Eternal life is right now. So a bogus choice right there.

This is really funny coming from a person who is unable to find any references to the righteous in the bible...because of white knuckling one verse.

I think you have found the master verse that cancels out all other verses....or you just don't understand a biblical point.

I mean in the first posts...I tried the yellow and I couldn't read it...so I did this colour. It's like a gold/mustard colour. BTW I sent you a song! :)

I used a gold colour to represent the yellow... :) Easier on the seeing gear. It says "righteousness" and it represents the kind of character that God approves of. Things like humility, mercy, kindness and the like.

I disagree with the OP....of course. Paul said...I am dead with Christ....it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in Me...and the life I now live I live by the faith OF Christ. I think the very rarity of that kind of thing in our time has people scrambling for an alternate meaning to what...

The real Jesus is a stumblingblock to the religiously minded. The real Jesus cannot be understood by the carnal mind. Is. 8:14 He will be a holy place; for both Israel and Judah he will be a stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall. And for the people of Jerusalem he...

There is a version of Jesus that allows us to remain on the broad way that leads to death. It seems right and reasonable to people. But that's the problem. The truth is very hard to hear and accept. But the lie is like honey....it is music to the uncircumcised ear. So then who is going to take...

Is there not a concern that the churches have lost the key of David? Shouldn't there be more of an outcry? In this time of great sin and darkness, the saints should rise up and walk in the power of God to a greater extent than in the past. But sound doctrine sounds strange to modern ears...

Sorry to hear all that. When it rains it seems to pour. Will pray for your concerns...

Again you seek to diminish what is of God...so that the carnal man can seem to obtain it....which of course he can't. A talent is worth about 20 years of wages. A small fortune. This represents the investment that God has given us by grace. It is of a high value. What we do with that...

Not really. :) I'm saying that the righteousnesses are distinct. We do the possible and God does the impossible. But we are leaning righteousness through the example of His righteousness. God's righteousness is always His own. And what God imputes to us is our OWN righteousness. He GIFTS to us...

Nearing the finish line, the 3 horses pounded the track, their hoof beating a frightening tempo. It all came down to this; the training, the conditioning, and everything else it took to get here this day. The crowd rose to it's feet, roaring their approval; but who would it be that crossed the...

Some people...:eek:
