If a man has become saved, the "change(s) God accomplishes within that man IS what is acceptable to God, for that man to be with Him forever. Rom 1:12 [1] I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God...

Amadeus ~ continued The Point is...SIN. WHAT is SIN. WHEN is something a SIN. And WHEN is SIN applicable to ANY particular man? When I was naturally BORN... I was not a Hebrew or a Jew. I was not SUBJECT TO their Laws or Statutes. I DID not believe IN God or Christ Jesus, or even KNOW, what...

Knowing who is a brother in Christ, is the basic. Individually growing in understanding, IS "individual". That does not "affect" Brothers "IN Christ", that that may be corrupted. Didn't repost all your text...but will try to hit on your points. Man can DO NOTHING, without God. The very most...

I do believe it was Heaven created, Heavens made. Can't comment to that. Can't agree with that. Something must be created, Before it can be "made". Correct. It was called "good". The "habitat" created first. The "inhabitants" created thereafter. Created "good"..."Not Perfect"...

I agree, foreknew...as in, there is NOTHING new "under the sun". God Knows...man is always the student in discovery of what God knows. I agree, about Understanding. For mankind, it begins with the MIND(S) of every individual man... it is "supposed" to be a "quest", beyond the mans MIND, (who...

IMO ~ There are always four things to consider, about God, when God acts... 1) His own thoughts/plan/idea/Will 2) His own Word that speaks, things to be. 3) His own Power that effects, His Will All three always work together. And God asks no counsel of any of His creations, but rather His...

As well, remember, there is a lot of "making" the Lord does with that which He has created. :) Glory to God, Taken

The Earth "without form and void" ? I could reason, without form....but not void. Reasoning without form....on the basis...to hear and learn about Heaven....is all encompassing never revealing a FORM and to us, it is pretty much...out there, as we can be any place on the earth and point up and...

Friend, I think about you, and hope all is well, also knowing we get loaded up with multiple things that need our attention, and get overwhelmed with seeing our plate full. You respond in a most excellent way, and I have no issues whatsoever about that. Pick out each thing on your plate...

Ya, that's a tough one to put into words, since multiple people can view that as multiple things....non-existent, vanished, whatever. The fact is, Everything God "created", remains created....and simply changes in its visible and invisible Form. Gold, Diamonds, Rock bolders, dirt...

Marymog ~ Should have included this scripture to you. FEAR of the Lord God, is the Beginning of Faith. When a man has become Converted...he is NOT in FEAR of His Lord God....he is a Friend and Brother of Jesus....and a son of God. That same Converted man should have no fear of other men...who...

The Death and Resurrection of Jesus, is simply a Fact one can Believe or NOT, and call it by whatever they choose, to describe Commerations and Celebrations of their Belief in those facts. And FYI, Jesus had ascended, before Peter was imprisoned, per this discussion. I don't care WHO invented...

The river of Life...is the Constant reminder of the Ever presence of the Lord God who IS Life. The 12 Fruit Trees are the Constant reminder of the 12 Tribes and those within the Tribes who remained Constant forever with God. The Branches reveal the Gifts the Lord sent forth out into the World...

Destroy may mean to some TO MAKE the thing....Like "uncreated". Destroy is simply to CHANGE something FROM what it APPEARED AS, so that it APPEARS as something else. The Earth has already experienced "one Destruction" in the Flood. The Earth shall experience "another Distriction" by Fire...

I can not speak for you. I can speak for myself. Anyone ... even Satan, can hear, read, learn every single word in Scripture. I trust Every Word in Scripture is TRUE. The More difficult part, IS DOES EVERY WORD in Scripture YOU READ, APPLY TO YOU? Many absolutely DO READ, and APPLY every...

No friend, there is no deflection, distraction or defense occuring. YOU have your own understanding, and favor reading a Book of Scripture that yields and compliments and does not Offend "YOUR" understanding. I already Understand... JEWS, have, multiple Sabbath days, multiple Feast days, a...

From a natural perspective... The Seas, divide people. The Seas, have provided food and pleasure for people. The Seas have become polluted, corrupt. From a spiritual perspective. No Seas, no division. No Seas, no fish-ies to eat. No animals eaten. A restored man on A NEW earth...no men eating...

Yes, lying is lying....however it DOES MATTER, to WHOM! Lying to God...or Lying to another man. My position is more fully revealed in post # 308 .. #309... if you are interested. God Bless, Merry Christmas, Taken

Amadeus ~ continued... So WHAT ABOUT my "RELATIONSHIP" with "other men? Can lies, cheating, deceiving, backstabbing, stealing, divorcing, leaving, etc. OCCUR Between A Converted man, and any other man? Absolutely. IS it a SIN? No. IS it a Trespass of one man AGAINST another man...

I get your point. However I do not understand as you do. Speaking from a Hebrew/Jewish point of view, and "under" the OLD covenant, is one thing. Speaking from a Converted man/ Jew or Gentile, and "under" the NEW covenant, is another thing. So, addressing the New covenant, to which "I" am...
