    Why Jews were Made, not Born

    Actually Israel is the Bride of Christ. WE are Israel. The Israel of God. But in a way Jesus is also Israel. Since to be Israel means to overcome with God. And Jesus did that to make a way for us to do it.

    ...or thieves forcing you to "give them a hand" in order to steal your identity and money.

    " Surrender.."

    We can only stay fully surrendered as our level of maturity permits. After that the soul gets shaken from the peace that had previously been fully pleasing to it.

    I think Christians will demand that it be imputed. Then they will accept it. ;)

    Eternal Security

    "APAK, post: 440237, member: 7755"]Epi: John 10:30 and John 17:21 are classic misused verses by trinitarians to 'prove' that God is Jesus or vi se versa. Jesus and the Father are One. This is only difficult for the small brain of a human to comprehend. One must come at the bible like a...

    " Surrender.."

    Fair enough...I'm praying for ties that don't have a best before date. Mine seem to get time expired. ;)

    Why Jews were Made, not Born

    That God put unbelievers into the Bride?

    Why Jews were Made, not Born

    The charge of replacement theology is from Jews who want their flesh to count for something. But we know the flesh profits nothing. But Israel has always been, in God's mind, the church/congregation from all nations. Just not in the mind of people who have something to lose.

    For I acknowledge my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me. Psalms 51:3.

    I take the personal stuff and leave it on the altar. It isn't personal...at least not at the outset. God is not a respecter of persons. Our history is important to us. But what God looks for is not what we think is important. So we have to realize that God must deal fairly with all mankind. So...

    A question:

    I would put it...Those who think they are holy...as opposed to they who think nobody can be. Both are using a creativity that comes from the flesh....but is outside the realm of the knowledge of God.

    Echad....Oneness. John 10:30 "I and the Father are one." John 17:21" that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me." Zech. 2:9 ..."Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me."...

    “I will shew thee my faith by my works.“

    just remain as you are.

    “I will shew thee my faith by my works.“

    "H. Richard, post: 440196, member: 6940"]*** I don't know where you get your idea that dispensationaism """"denies""" that "IN CHRIST" there is no difference between people. It upholds the idea that "IN CHRIST" there is no difference between people. brilliant. That's what the bible says. You...

    " Surrender.."

    The race is not just about...getting there...it's about remaining there. Jesus said...Abide in Me. That's how we bear the kind of fruit that brings glory and reward. But the gate is narrow...AND so is the road. So then our perfection is about location location location. It is IN Him. We need...

    Getting Grace Right

    Step 2 in getting grace WRONG 2. Put the emphasis on the "finished work" of the cross. Put all the responsibility on Jesus. Grace makes you not responsible...like a child or mentally incompetent person. Jesus did everything for you....so you don't have to do anything. In fact confront those who...

    Getting Grace Right

    Step 2 in getting grace RIGHT 2. Perseverance. If at first you don't succeed...the race isn't over yet (not until God says so). A fervent seeking of God MOVES Him to respond. A fervent faith MOVES God. Humble yourself and be determined. God loves a quiet and gentle spirit. While we are...

    Getting Grace Right

    First step in getting grace WRONG... 1. Assume we live in a time of grace where no contact with God is necessary....just believe you have grace already...and you do. Use the bible to try covering your carnal tracks. Hey we all sin anyway... Author: The Prince of lies (who doesn't want people...

    Getting Grace Right

    Step one in preparing for grace. 1. Seek God until you receive power from heaven. Jesus did not send His flock into the world as powerless individuals. He brought them together to experience His grace in order to take over the world. PS: This is the narrow way as a person must be personally...

    " Surrender.."

    For every picture there is a negative. For every truth there is a lie that looks the same to the carnal mind. The truth is very difficult to follow. The lie looks like greasy grace.
