Jesus said to them... "I AM..... from Above and YOU are.... from Below". He said this, while as a man talking to people. Notice the 'I AM".... That is what God said to Moses when Moses said..."what is your name". This is the same that Jesus the "man" said to the Pharisees, ... "Before...

Paul's isn't. 1 Timothy 4:13 He's talking about HIS., and it came from "above".

The church is each individual born again Christian. Didn't you know? Each person born again, is the body of Christ, that is the "Church"... "we are all members of HIS BODY"> See that? Thats the CHURCH... Here is the "Church"....>"The Temple of the HOLY Spirit". Who is that? Its all...

Rest assured that God doesn't. And i appreciate that you actually posted something that isn't "cut and paste" See, you can do it.

The Power to live the Christian life is turned OFF = just as soon as you try to do it by willpower or self effort. (self striving). Or as Jesus said...>"Apart from me, you can do NOTHING". Paul teaches us that its "Christ who always gives me the Victory" and that is the Power of Christ...

He was. Its that "fine line" between "genius and crazy".. Origen was there....

Truth sounds like that to people who are having trouble believing it. But, i do appreciate that your questions, tho often laced with a carnal insult, open a door for me to share more Truth with readers here who are real students of the BIBLE and not some branch of someone's theology that they...

Origen founded the Christian School of Caesarea. He was extremely intelligent, very self righteous, and kinda crazy. Origen took a knife and castrated himself, because he read a verse that talks about "eunuchs". (don't do that Reader). He also created the idea of "soul sleep" that the "cult...

A heretic created the "doctrine of Election". The Cross denies this cult teaching, according to John 3:16 Here are a few things for you to realize @Johann John Calvin didnt compose, write, or authorize, the New Testament. God is not a Calvinist Jesus is not a Calvinist Paul the Apostle is...

The bible is a book of progressive revelation. God didnt stop in Acts 2:38 and Paul didn't stop in Romans 7. Heretics always do. Really.< God does not change, and Jesus is always the same, but, the way that God deals with Man, has changed and continues to change. Did you notice that there is...

using fictional characters as your proof text? Why dont you try using Superman or maybe, The Wizard of Oz, next time, @atpollard . As that will be just as ineffective.

Paul said this.. """"But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.... I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.""" Notice that Paul came into this revelation after He was called by...

The God man, recognizing His equality with God The Father This is not the same as "all men are created equal". Its something much more divine.

To be saved it to be rescued. To be saved, in the context of CHRISTianity, is to be the recipient of what the Savior provides. What does He provide? He provided His Body and His Blood and His Death, and His Resurrection. This is "Salvation". John 14:6

In the OT, you have the water baptism of John the Baptist. and this was to repent of sin, and be immersed. This didnt save anyone, but it was a part of the process of the OT Covenant. Jesus was also water baptized by John, and it also didnt save The Christ., but He had to "fulfill all law" so...

Those who "miss it" read the verse like this.. "We are saving ourselves, by our works, and faith is not the Justification, its just the excuse to be self righteous".

Romans 2:11

That's water, and notice that it didn't save anyone. It didnt wash away anyone's sin.

Isn't it interesting that Jesus understood His own EQUALITY with God... yet, some people who claim to be Christian, do not agree. Here is a better translation of the verse, as the one St SteVen is using is obscure. """Jesus, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God".

You again, have it exactly backwards. See, the majority of people here, are ETERNALLY Justified by Jesus's Sacrifice, as He is the "only Way to the Father". They dont argue against "Justification by faith", as you do., and as all who oppose Grace, will always continue to do. Whereas you, self...
