If you have an unfit body and the system you're in promotes it, making a decision to become fit will require all sorts of hard work and resistance from the system. Satan does not give up his erewhile subjects without a continual fight. We are however promised strength to persevere. Jesus says...

yes, the system would remain and another man elected. I don't see that as problematic when it comes to our subject of the man of sin, the Roman Catholic system

a title, yes.

how do arrive at that idea?

I wonder whether Jesus's disciples or any of his friends for that matter called him 'Christ'? It seems such an impersonal and removed term to me; as odd as calling your friend by a title particularly seeing Jesus's intention was to break down unnecessary barriers.

The Roman Catholic system matches as hand in glove.

The incessant talk of love is nothing more than an excuse for not being loving. It's talk is that of hypocrisy. Those that love don't require to constantly blurb about it. It is in fact a clever smoke screen.

Whewww! ...i escaped the hangman noose :)

I'm sorry you don't get the connection!

We are admonished to make our election sure by overcoming. For the most part it is to a rocky, lonely and narrow trail is where the sign posts are pointing. Without endurance the race cannot and will not be won. One will say, but you are encouraging salvation by works.....Oh what a slippery...

The scriptures are a closed book to those who care not for righteousness and whose objective is to propagate their own theories. They will wrest the plainest texts from their context to support their position. The Gospel of Grace is to them nothing more than something to be exploited for their...

Thank you brakelite for that explanation. I still keep my distance from institutions although from time to time I do venture through the doors of a Church in the hope that I can connect. The presentations are disappointing for the most part and have been such an irritation that I have got out...

Making mountains out of mole hills and molehills out of mountains is the standard MO of ignorance.

ViJ...are you familiar with this story?

The scripture is clear. One does not need to go to great lengths as Rome does to make something simple appear as if it is complex..... Foolishness that masquerades as wisdom is the home of fools....... Again, the scripture is clear and a familiarity with it, a seeking and uplifted heart will...

When foolishness is self-evident it is foolishness to engage it.

I think speculation is pointless and fruitless Mayflower

You are right in what you say in this post brakelite. Objection to this is because of lack of comprehension. It is not possible for the mind not renewed by God's Spirit to understand these things as you know. The mind not renewed is darkened deceiving itself into thinking it has great light...

I would like to speak to two words you have used ViJ, namely bondage and freedom. The limitation bondage is that it cannot be free. It is enslaved. It has the image of freedom in that it chooses everything that glorifies the self. Freedom also has limitations. The limitation of not choosing...

God reveals to us clearly the standard by which judgement is made and as you have rightly said, God hasn't changed his position. The scripture tells us he is the same yesterday, today and forever.
