When you characterize me as saying you are not a Christian, that is bearing false witness.

They would be committing it completely against their nature.

I never said you weren't a Christian, so who is mucking about in the weeds?

I never said the three are three persons did I? No I didn't.

1 John 5:7 7 For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. No need to discuss.

All three are God, so for one to declare the other God is confirmation, not heresy.

It is no more strange than the Father declaring the Son to be God in Hebrews 1.

I don't expect everyone to accept this as the study of Semitic writing styles of the apostles is a bit advanced. But if you are going to understand their meaning, you must understand their eastern culture and styles of writing.

Have you ever thought of "we" as mankind? You should. unsaved saved unsaved to be saved unsaved. Mr. C have you ever asked yourself why 8 and 10 are not together? Why does 9 separate them, and why is 9 not after verse 10? It is because they are a list of contrasts - light vs. darkness...

I'm not sure if it me you hate, or yourself. I can try to be your friend, but you seem very insecure and think the worst.

You are only confused about Behold. His posts are frothy but there is one doctrine of his that makes grace a license to sin. I don't believe you believe like that. You agree with him that a Christian doesn't sin. But what you don't see is that he believes the actions of the flesh that a...

You throw "legalism" at me thinking it will stick. Left to my old nature I would have to work in my old strength (not!) to be holy. But I've been literally born again, and filled with His power, and even felt it happen, so my assurance is sure according to 1 John 3:18-24. According to my new...

I didn't say that. Some days you don't write during the day, so I assume you work.

Only God knows the TRUTH about me, but I don't have anything on my conscience. I have very few friends alive who live here so I don't go out. So no arguments. And my knowledge is such that I am mature. marks when you really understand and apply 2 Peter 1:2-11, you will never stumble.

I speak for you, because you are confused when it comes to thinking yourself on the same page as Behold. You are NOT.

I can't remember the question. COFFEE!!!! Be back later.

But you do realize don't you that those who walk in darkness, do NOT have the light of God in them anywhere? So what does that tell you? John 1:4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. The first...

amadeus, I hope you didn't misunderstand @marks. But, I do believe he has misunderstood the heresies Behold is teaching, because marks says they are on the "same page." Yikes!

Yes, I think I can agree to that. But I also think only for younger Christians in the Lord. We must keeping growing more and more like Christ for we have been given the mind of Christ. When we were immature in the Lord we were required to only live up to the degree we had knowledge according to...

1 John 2a is about both. But Jesus is only our Advocate for trespasses, not willful sins of lawlessness. Did you know that? So it is possible to stay in the Spirit to that degree.
