That's what I was afraid you meant. No, it is when grace is taught as you are teaching it - INCORRECTLY. Yes, the Word of God is spiritually discerned, so why can't you understand God's holiness? He is not going to keep us in a carnal state where His Son just pays our punishment. NO! He is going...

and @historyb Yes, we can have assurance. 1 John 3:18-24 (minus 20) 18 My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. 19 And by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him.... 21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us...

I understand what you are saying.

I don't think so. “You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you

I like Acts of the Apostles 1 The former account I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, 2 until the day in which He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen, 3 to whom He also presented Himself alive...

It is important to me and my being able to hear God's voice, the most precious thing in my life.

Yes, a willful sin.

I like this post. I do it because even though I'm a child of God, we are to "purify ourselves." 1 John 3:3. How do you do that. It seems like our responsibility? I remember being yelled at by a Bible leader at a home Bible study, and didn't open my mouth. It took me months to forgive him, but...

What I find appalling is the fact that false doctrines have become Orthodox, and the Truth found in His word has become heresy! Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

I go to bed each and every night with a clear conscience and think about if I need to forgive anyone. When that checklist is done I've worked out my own salvation.

Oh, yes I did definitely. But it was based on a false teacher's definition. I don't really want to go into it, just to say though in the midst of it, I could still hear His voice and had visions, unlike now if I don't take care of something immediately. He is silent until I do what I know to be...

That is why it couldn't be true, yet the only one that came closest to us loving God totally out of free will, and being completely pleasing to God already before we die.

I agree, which is why I said: That revelation knowledge is understanding His Word.

What does licentiousness mean to you, that you believe grace is licentiousness?

Remove you from condemnation? Perhaps, as God said, if you DON'T forgive your brethren, neither will He forgive you.

Sinlessness and perfection are two different things. If you live up to the knowledge you have you are still sinless, even though there are things yet to learn that would not be pleasing to God. Perfection is the growing of 2 Peter 1:4-7.

There is a reason the Spirit is called the Spirit of Truth. It is He that teaches us and gives us revelation knowledge.

The key is are you growing, or are you saying, I'm already saved, I can do what I want and literally go backwards. I quote 2 Peter 1 a lot, but really verses 5-9 is key to show us actual growth is essential.

That is between you and God. This is talking about your brethren. As I recall, you do not believe the Sermon on the Mount is for Christians, but explaining the Old Covenant. Jesus wasn't sent here to do that but to teach what was missing that you will be empowered to do in the New Covenant. But...

Just remember not to ADD any sarcasm to your polls. I will write exactly what they believe, and not say those who are stupid believes...
