The subject of this thread are the warnings to the Church that the OP presented from God's Word. It's about the topic that we are to be on watch against sin while waiting for our Lord Jesus' 2nd coming. Ephesians is both about the calling to believe on Jesus Christ, and Paul's admonitions to...

Then that means you plan to wait... for our Lord Jesus to appear at the end of the coming great tribulation. That's good.

The idea "so" is just an adverbial issue. Loved is the main verb in that verse.

Walk by The Spirit, led by The Spirit, same idea. Confusing the two as if they are different meanings is straining at a gnat. Gal 5:16 16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulful the lust of the flesh. KJV

There is an important matter especially for our times involving this idea of Bible interpretation in today's Churches. It involves one of Communism's strategic 1958 goals for taking over the West: "27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the...

Concentrating on those kind of phrases like "so" compared to the meat of that verse reveals the difference between what we're saying. I don't focus on "so", but on the fact that God's love is shown by sending His Son to die on the cross for those who believe.

I can grasp what Anthony may mean by a "Biblical meaning". It's about the 'revealed' Word of God, and not the letter. Grammar and the letter are tools only, and inherently limited. It's really impossible to truly describe God in all His Glory using words. We can't even understand how The...

Confusion going on with that topic. Our Lord Jesus did not nail all of God's laws to His cross. As written, He nailed the ordinances in the law to His cross, pointing to the blood ordinances, religious and ceremonial ritual, etc. There is no New Testament Scripture telling us it's now healthy...

You have chosen to believe a Calvinist doctrine, i.e., that those who have believed on Jesus, being predestined to Salvation, can never fall away. That's really what you are saying. What you're not seeing is the distinction God's Word makes between a very elect that indeed has been 'chosen'...

It's good to note what Paul also said in Galatians 5, which goes with the Book of Romans where both set Christian doctrine. In Galatians 5, Apostle Paul declares that IF... we walk by The Spirit, then we won't be doing anything against God's laws. He showed that only if we walk by The Spirit...

You may disagree with the doctrines of the Calvinists and Reformers, but that's a lot of the basis of where you're coming from. The way you quote Scripture in such a broad coverage absolutist sense is why I say that. Those movements started in Germany in the 15th century, and continued to much...

Too much focus on Rome, when Jerusalem in the last days is the actual Bible key. Satan himself, in person, is coming to earth, in OUR dimension of existence, and not by possessing some flesh born man. Understanding that is only difficult for those who don't actually heed God's Word as...

There's a condition for Israel's future salvation. It depends on their belief on Jesus Christ as Messiah once God removes the blindness He put upon them. No one is automatically saved just by blood birth. We learn that even back in Old Testament times as only the believing remnant of Israel...

So you have just decided there's no need for you to watch against doing sin in your life? Do you really believe you cannot ever sin anymore after having come to Jesus Christ?

For you to properly understand that you'd have to go back into the Old Testament prophets and study, especially in the latter chapters of Ezekiel. And then relate those still yet unfulfilled scriptures to the Book of Revelation. Rev 22:14-15 14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that...

You didn't understand my question at all. Those unbelieving Jews in Romans 11 are promised Salvation according to Paul there. How is that, since they reject Christ for this present world? What you are actually pushing is also called Hyper-Calvinism. It's the idea that our fates (calling) are...

Even with that, you cannot just skip what all Paul said in that Romans 6 chapter prior to those 22nd and 23rd verses which point to a condition... Rom 6:11-17 11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. 12 Let not sin...

The OP is just more junk from men's doctrines of Hyper-dispensationalism. Dispensationalism basis of Hyper-dispensationalism = basis started by John Darby in 1830s Britain who also pushed a pre-trib rapture. Darby's unique form of Dispensationalism was designed to support the pre-trib rapture...

The 'gifts and calling of God' is an idea you pulled from Romans 11 about the Jews whom God blinded away from The Gospel so it could go to the Gentiles. Let's use them as an example since you brought the idea up. In Matthew 8:11-12, Jesus showed the unbelieving Jews would be cast out to the...

Acts 20:27-31 27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. 28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with His Own blood. 29 For I know this, that...
