Do you ever try not to sin? or you indulge every whim of the body? So if you indulge the flesh...you are a heathen. If you try NOT to sin then you are trying to work righteousness.

Giving lip service to the work of Christ on the cross is not the same as forsaking all for Christ in keeping with the MESSAGE of the cross!

Very good! It is good that you grasp one thing and also not let go of the other; for the one who fears God comes forth with both of them. Eccl. 7:18

That Jesus Christ is come in the flesh....that God has joined Himself to His own creation. Now we can be even as Christ through the power of the cross and the resurrection. We are made holy through HIS life in us. So we are reconciled to God.

Those who mock the power of Christ are condemned in their sins. In spite of the fact that you are just a mocker of the truth I will ask (for the sake of others)...what do you make of this verse... 1Jn 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God...

The work of Jesus? You are preaching works... I am the one preaching the works of Christ. You are preaching death through a continued commitment to sin (and mocking those who have faith in God) in the face of the works of God.

So you have a Jesus is my buddy salvation. Nice! Jesus serves you!!! You must feel very important to have such a distinguished servant!!! Of course you have it backwards! Hey, we all like being served, right??? But Jesus is the Lord and not just a buddy and a good servant for us to use when we...

Obedience is better than sacrifice. Those who obey the Lord will be saved. Those who hear and don't do what the Lord says are fooling themselves. There are too many verses that say this very thing to even begin to quote. But Jesus said it in the parable of the house built on sand or on the...

You are smokescreening here and mocking what you don't understand. A Christian doesn't just believe in a scheme as presented by televangelists. You have been brainwashed. The TV is meant for entertainment..not truth. The truth in Jesus Christ is according to a divine birth in the Spirit by...

Not hearers are justified but doers are justified. This is so basic to the faith. Hearing in the verse means to take seriously. It's kinda like this. The difference between a rowboat and a motorboat. The would-be motor boater receives the free gift of a motor. He then goes down to the boat...

We don't rest in His work on the cross...we rest in the Lord and experience the cross ourselves so that He works through us. Doing nothing is just that...doing nothing. We need to be DOERS of the word and not only HEARERS, deceiving only ourselves (and whoever is foolish enough to listen)

You are stuck in the diapers of the very first moment when one realizes that Jesus is the Son of God. You refuse to grow up since that would be like dying to you. And it IS dying! We must die to the former life and be buried with Christ so that we live a NEW life in HIS power. That is the...

The liberty in Christ is not to be freed from the guilt of sins you keep committing. The power of Christ liberates you from the power of sin. The fact that you don't know this liberty shows that you should not be preaching from the bible...as you have not yet become a witness of Christ and HIS...

You cannot see that it is the power of God that causes men to do the works of God. You just cannot let that idea formulate in your head although it is constantly spoken of in the bible. You see only dead works or else forgiveness for these dead works...but with you it is always death...that is...

Mostly accurate...especially the 2 step understanding of being saved FROM and saved TO something. We are not created to be saved, there is the purpose of God to consider. However, the immature in Christ do not have a second chance AFTER death in the second resurrection. The 2nd resurrection is...

But we have not gone through the process to become what they became...at least not very many do. We all start out as raw material in God's hand. The miracle is what He can do to a messed up people! He makes saints out of sinners...spiritual giants out of carnal creatures.

1. Ephesus - Apostolic - Left their first love. 2. Smyrna -Martyrs - Few issues in the martyred church 3. Pergomos - Orthodox - Holds to the doctrine of the Nicolaitans (Feel free to do whatever you want_ 4. Thyatira - Catholic - The spirit of Jezebel is to dominate, kill, and control. 5. Sardis...

The bible is meant to inspire faith in God. When we experience the same God as those who are writing the bible, then we have benefited by the very purpose of the bible. To Connect us to God.

We love this show as the best cartoon of all time. Our kids watch this every Christmas as we did when we were young. :)

In stark contrast to these are the disciples who live FROM the Spirit of Christ.
