When we are filled with God's Spirit, who do you think is in control? Us, or the Spirit? We are dead to sin.

1 John 3:18 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, we have confidence toward God. 22 And whatever we ask we...

I disagree with "he never had it to begin with." It clearly say by which "HE WAS SANCTIFIED." (Past tense.) 29 Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common...

So you believe if I murder someone in the future, it is already forgiven and I don't need to repent?

1 John 3:9 is in context with 1 John 3:4. That type of sin is no longer in a Spirit-filled Christian's nature so they won't commit them.

Calvinism doesn't teach we cannot sin anymore after having believed on Jesus. You have that confused with those teaching 1 John 3:9. Calvinism doesn't teach that, they teach 1 John 1:8. What you may have heard them say, is that our "past, present and future" sins are already forgiven. That's not...

The best thing for you to do is to write out your life story, with all your childhood friends and what you did. I write books myself, and time flies. You'll never be bored again.

I can relate. I'm only 72 but need 2 knee replacements and 1 hip replacement. I do dishes during commercials on TV as that is all the time I can stand before my back seizes up. I can't sweep my floors. I have to find them first. Things everywhere! I have a HP computer and use WildTangentGames...

I know he was a doctor, but that's all I know.

@marks Now you try it. 1 John chapter 1. Start with verse 5 and highlight the contrasts as far as you can go. I haven't gone into chapter two so don't know if it will stop in there or not.

Read my last post.

Just to clarify. It is not like we can sin and not be condemned. We don't sin against our conscience in the first place. Understand?

Exactly. In other words, let your super-sensitized Holy Spirit filled conscience lead you. Do not do ANYTHING your conscience screams NO! to. That is what I've seen Paul do when he talks of his conscience.

What are you saying. I didn't understand this. I did have to edit a couple times, go back and read it again.

More discussion. I'm not sure you are getting it. I was reading " 20 For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things" as if it was to a Christian, and it just didn't make sense. But NOW, knowing that the person who does something and their heart condemns them...

@marks 3 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. 2 Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is...

1 John 3 (First here is a partial chapter with the underlined verse in question, next post will show the Semitic writing style of contrasting thoughts highlighted on the whole chapter between good and bad that made me understand what John was saying.) 18 My little children, let us not love in...

What must not be lost in reasoning is that all the apostles and writers of the New Testament, except Luke, were Hebrews. The Semitic writing style is still very evident no matter what language the words are, and taking into account those different styles used by Hebrews is the only way a...

Her name if Laura and has long blonde hair. She drew the little robot. It's her in the picture. This is a fun episode to watch, but this is only a small portion. You have to pay or subscribe for more.

I said: "That is brainwashing, and a heinous doctrine of demons to weaken the Church." And you said: Perfect example of a parrot. How many are miraculously answered, immediately, and you are filled with amazement? Mine are. Here is one of many: I've seen many, many miracles, but for me it...
