This is mainly for me a teaching forum. There are too many who justify their own sin by quoting 1 John 1:8, like they are not a liar - BUT make Christ the liar instead! Is that really showing love?

It actually is real and scriptural, whereas staying with the Old Covenant laws is not. With the Spirit I can treat you with love and honor, but like many non-Spirit-filled Christians who remain under the law, you cannot.

If it is dead, then why are you now teaching you still have one? Besides 1 John 1:8 is only interpreted to mean for a Christian by the ignorant. If you are cleansed of all sin, why is it a lie to agree? If Jesus was here to put an end to transgressions and sin, I will honor Him, and not call HIM...

If I still have a sin nature, it is asleep. I haven't talked to it nor fed it in a long, long time, and don't intend on waking it up for a meal. I have a new nature that I feed and enjoy.

Read it in context. We are not lawless. We are just not under the Old Covenant laws. But you are clueless as to why? It is because we are righteous through walking in the Spirit. Now read your verse in context, or remain clueless. 3 For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the...

I know Adventists can't see that, and I was raised SDA, and love them still, and wouldn't have wanted to been raised in any other denomination for knowledge. But, I never learned about the power of the Holy Spirit in that denomination, so I can imagine it is not something you can accept, but it...

The key is staying in the Spirit. Some think that is impossible, that we go in and out. NO! If we have the Spirit, we can stay in the Spirit as long as we don't grieve or quench the Spirit.

@mjrhealth and @Behold The real problem was not the law, but sin in our carnal nature that the law had to be kept through. The law says one thing; your nature the opposite. Jesus came to take away the sin in our nature, by creating a new nature that partook of the divine nature. This is why...

The problem was not the law, but sin in our carnal nature that the law had to be kept through. The law says one thing; your nature the opposite. Jesus came to take away the sin in our nature, by creating a new nature that partook of the divine nature. This is why Jesus said, "You must be born...

There is nothing you could teach me while deliberately quenching the Spirit.

An unrepentant liar quenches the Spirit of Truth. I refuse to take you seriously until you are filled with the Spirit through repentance, and a promise you won't lie to me again. And that's final.

How can I trust anything you say? You've proven to be a liar.

Confirm your statement you so blatantly supplied as a statement of fact. Once a liar, nothing can be trusted that comes out of their mouth.

If you are not lying, show me your evidence of a brain-dead person of both the cerebrum and brainstem coming back to a normal life. Otherwise, confess and repent.

I don't know who told you such a lie, because I've never heard of even one. If both the cerebrum and the brainstem are dead, there is no function that can bring a person back to "normal." Organs may be kept viable through intubated ventilation. You may be thinking of someone in a coma. But we...

God formed Adam from dirt - body. Then God breathed into him the breath of life - Spirit, and man became a living soul - mind.

Your body has a brain. If you become brain-dead, your mind stops working, and your life force also leaves.

And how do you believe grace affects our sin? Does it make us able to sin, just without consequences and condemnation? Or is it the power of God to not sin anymore?

Maybe think of a human being made, in their image, with a body, mind and life force. You need all three to exist as one.

You still don't understand. Where is SELF-EFFORT in the gospel. NO! It is all the work of the SPIRIT! Without the Spirit you'll never grasp this and why you keep telling me what I believe and are always dead wrong.
