All this to people who are already Christians.

Actually that fruit is from the religion tree. We can do things in our own strength....but we are weak. People mix up evil with weakness. Without Christ ALL people are weak...but not all are evil. Some are righteous. God calls the righteous into His holiness....and sinners are called to repent.

Anything spiritual will appear as nonsense to you. Step back and look at how religious you are.

That's how you misunderstand God and fall into the trap...the religion trap. It is the false gospel...

I am correcting churchy traditions. I am teaching what is actually found in the bible. AND I have the spiritual experience to know the actual grace of God. So I have 2 coordinates to speak from.

Imputed righteousness is OUR righteousness that God recognizes. To impute means to attribute. So then God's righteousness is IMPUTED to God. We can receive God's righteousness by putting ON Christ. But that righteousness is still imputed to Him. The actions that we do IN Christ are imputed to...

How many go down the path to the "dark side" of religion....with all that imputed righteousness nonsense? It makes a person religious to think that his own belief gives him the right to call himself righteous. The road to self-righteousness I call it. A righteous man does NOT consider himself...

This is what I'm trying to show is not the truth. God accepts those who work righteousness. Before God visits them. So you have the order backwards. God accepts the righteous....and calls sinners to repent. Those that work righteousness are already healthy...as Jesus said. You only have...

Even if you don't know you're doing it... actually...so much the better if you don't! :)

We are only holy by entering into Jesus to walk as He walked. We "put on " Christ to be holy. "saving yourself through works" is not a catch-all for everyone who isn't OSAS. That is a strawman.

Let no one take away from the simplicity which is of Christ. No need to judge others. Just love and be a light in the world. God does the rest.

Sorry I missed this one Naomi... :) Because many evangelicals don't recognize any righteousness but their own. Just like the Pharisees did. I'm trying to debunk these unbiblical teachings...with proper sound teaching. :) We need to see what is of us....and what is of God. The devil has...

Here is a prophecy that fits the modern church. Ez. 13:22 Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life: How many preachers fit the bill here?

Abraham did not declare himself righteous because he believed God. He just believed God and left it to God to think as He wills. Abraham let God be the judge. If we judge ourselves as righteous because of our beliefs...we are doubly sinful. We will be judged harshly. We are just to do what is...

Here is a verse that will cause more religious snits... ;) Acts 10:35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. What it doesn't say is...He who accepts Jesus is accepted by God. God doesn't respect our opinions. Or...only he who is already...

It depends how we do it. We should do it in a spiritual way and avoid DOING IT MAN'S WAY. God will show you how to affect the world. No need for politics. That is the way of men.

Too religious. The actual qualifications are to fear God and to work righteousness. (Acts 10:36) That is how you become acceptable to God. So you have it backwards. Are you wiser then the apostle James? Do you have more wisdom than the bible? Or are you just a modern person who has...

"It" is singular. But we all know that it is a HE ...not an IT. The word (logos or YHVH) was God. And He became flesh and dwelt among us.

Very few people will live a holy life. These live inside the fire of God. But the light and heat given off by that light produces the salt of the earth. So then there are many righteous and few holy people. It is like a little fire that produces the heat in the world. So you have to decide...
