    "JUSTIFICATION"

    Listen....men are born IN Sin...men COMMIT Sin.... ^^^ THAT MAKES THEM A SINNER. A Converted man......IS a FORGIVEN SINNER. Remember, IT IS GOD who covers a mans SIN. Remember, IT IS GOD who SEES a mans SIN no more. Remember, IT IS GOD who has adopted that man to be a “son of God”. Remember, IT...

    From Saint to sinner, is it possible?

    Believers, (while they ARE believing) are accounted “righteous”. They ARE righteous FOR believing. Because they ARE Believing.......the Lord IS “WITH” them. Believers CAN Fall away. When a believer Falls Away he has “committed iniquity”. I have recently posted several comments on this topic...

    "JUSTIFICATION"

    Sure you can. Men ARE born in sin...they are sinners. Men COMMIT sin........they are sinners. Sin OF your flesh, does not disappear. Sin your flesh commits, does not become undone. However; God offers forgiveness FOR commission of Sin, IF the man heartfully repents. God offers the covering of...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    You are dancing in circles. Consider the facts. When you make a person equal with the Lord Jesus, When a statue is made of that person, When you bow down before that statue, When you call out that persons name.... You are worshiping and praying to that statue, as a person, equal to the Lord.

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    Are you confused? Jesus is an INTERCESSORY, for Believers, which means Jesus Speaks to God on a Believers behalf. The Converted (which ARE the SAVED), have no INTERCESSORY. The Converted Saved man, Speaks Directly TO their God on their Own behalf, IN Jesus’ Name...... While the Converted...

    The sacrifice of Jesus....revisited

    God came in the LIKENESS AS A man, a particular man, ie a Jewish man. Jesus was not a Human man. Men can become in the LIKENESS AS God. Men do not become God. In Heaven Gods Word came forth “out of His mouth.” God “prepared” a Body for His Word. God “sent” that prepared Body to Earth. God...

    "JUSTIFICATION"

    Circle jerking is irrelevant. Sin is Against God. God is the Forgiver of Sin Against Him, given to the heartful repentant sinner. Not a big mystery.

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    Scripture tells you WHY. For men to LOOK at the image. Scripture tells you WHY. For men of the Congregation to heartfully, willingly, offer their possessions and offer thier workings of those possessions FOR the Sanctuary OF the Lord God. What does LOOKING at images and Offering possessions &...

    The sacrifice of Jesus....revisited

    Slaying of the innocent Before forgiveness ? No. The “innocent” does not require forgiveness. Sacrifice is the difference between What you HAVE and What you DO with What you HAVE. Are you Willingly to Give it away....what you have...IS a <—-> Sacrifice Are you Not willing to Give it...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    Bowing down IS Worshiping. Bow your head; Bow your body; IS Lowering yourself as you exalt and uplift something Higher than yourself. * Bowing BEFORE “something”...an idol, a statue, a person IS exalting and uplifting that “THING” you are Bowing BEFORE...Higher than yourself. * It IS a form of...

    "JUSTIFICATION"

    I didn’t. So what is your point ? I said no such thing. I see you do make assumptions. God provides mankind with knowledge....believe it or not. God provides mankind with knowledge....do it or not. God provides mankind A WAY....to be WITH Him or not....make your election. That simple.

    Taken....said:......Scriptures teaches to not make images. EX 20 Lev 1: [1] Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God. I didn’t question Sin. The...

    Why would men build buildings for men to gather. Dedicate those buildings to God, as a House of Prayer and Worship unto God.... Then fill those buildings full of Statues, Idols, call out the name of those Statues and Idols, and bow down before those Statues and Idols?
