    How does one "receive" Jesus and His subsequent power?

    This is written to born again saints in the present tense.... [8] If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. [9] If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. [10] If we say that we have...

    The book of Acts is not a grain of sand, but a mountain you went around.

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    Jesus and Paul both quoted outside the 5 books, claiming them as "the Law". 12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law. If the last Adam had sinned once, then we would have no sinless Father(Jesus). We would have been stuck with 2 failed Adams'...

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    No, the entire O.T. is the Law. Jesus changed or modified anything he wanted because he could. Now, if he would have sinned one time, he could not be qualified to change it. It would have changed him.

    How does one "receive" Jesus and His subsequent power?

    Paul defined the Law as present in the world when Romans was written. He taught that sin and carnality, including marriage are governed by the Law. He taught that only by walking in the Spirit is when we are free from the Law per Gal 5:18. So, simply, the Law is present today to bring us to...

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    No contradiction. Jesus could not only brake the Law, but CHANGE it. That is my point. We are under the Law of Christ(Melchisedek), not Moses.(Hebrews 7) New priesthood, new Law.

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless? ....not the man that was healed.

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    Did John agree with this statement he made?... 18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    Show me where he quoted the accusers? Also, is carrying your bed across town, work?

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    14 Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. 15 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the...

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    10 The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed. 11 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.... 8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days shalt thou labour...

    How does one "receive" Jesus and His subsequent power?

    Amen, we are OVERCOMERS by the blood of the lamb. Before Christ, we had no ability to overcome, but after salvation, we have the ability, Christ in you...

    Contradiction Or Paradox?

    John admitted that Jesus broke the Law. John showed Jesus working on the sabbath, telling the disciples to go pick corn and telling the healed man to carry his bed home, which was strictly forbidden in the 10 commandments. Maybe the Law giver was able to change it per Hebrews 7?... 12 For the...

    Amen, and if we do sin, we have an advocate with the Father....

    How does one "receive" Jesus and His subsequent power?

    Trapped in Romans 7? I think it reveals 2 natures in us. This must be taught. Folks are baffled after being saved and realizing this for the first time in their lives... 14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For that which I do I allow not: for what...

    How does one "receive" Jesus and His subsequent power?

    Sis, Paul never voided the previous chapters, but was giving us clarity in chapter 8. Chapter 7 was present tense in Paul's current spiritual situation. Why would the Bible command the saints to "put off" the deeds of the flesh when they are already off?... Ephesians 4:22-24 King James...

    How does one "receive" Jesus and His subsequent power?

    No, those verses instruct us to cease from sin, not that we cannot backslide. If our old man is no more, then you cannot sin, ever.
