    When Scripture is speaking of "secure"... That "secure" place "begins" with receiving the KNOWLDGE of "the WORD of God". It begins while they are carnal...the information is going to the MIND. They are processing what they hear... IN THEIR MIND. And WHILE they are receiving KNOWLEDGE, the...

    Spot on. People get conditioned with life, rush, wait, rush, wait.....and perhaps why it is more typical for an older person, who stops the rushing and waiting to simply reflect and focus more on the Lord. Just a thought. God Bless, Take

    BOL - Wow, your niece was very young...and that is good advice for people to keep a check on their B/P. Many stores offer use of a B/P machine, don't know how often they are calibrated, but would think they would at least give a person an indication. I have the opposite of most people, in...

    You need to learn the difference between being enlightened with the Knowledge of the Word of God, By the Power of the Holy Spirit..... Calling them Saved and Born Again... When they are not. Their security IS the WORD of God, AND in keeping IN the Word of God, continuing being enlightend to...

    It is a JOY to read your posts. I typically call it refreshing to converse with another that you KNOW, has come a long distance on the PATH. No, I do not see it as boasting. No one is whoo hooing....they have reached the Finish line. I didn't have the experience of a flat-line...but was...

    Agree it can get confusing... Because ALL are not at the SAME place on the PATH, thus all do not understand the SAME things, the SAME way. It is crystal clear to me, but then it was not always that way. I know some people are content with occasionally hearing the Word, or an hour a week, or...

    So, what? God gives a man faith according to nothing? BE a Hebrew, BE a Jew...and it IS according to a man adhering to the LAW. BE a Gentile, and its IS according to hearing, and believing. Scripture "IS" ALL OVER the place. It has application to every single man EVER born. Which is the...

    Very good post. And yes ... we can add Scripture upon scripture upon scripture... The KEY is....HOW is the reader reading scripture after scripture? AS an OLD MAN....or A NEW MAN..!! We have seen and observed examples of men, ..the thief, the Churches, the crowds gathering for a day or two...

    The measure of Faith God gives to a man I believe is according to the mans effort........ Hearing, reading, learning, The Word of God. At the point a man feeling in his own heart, the amount of faith he has to GIVE his life to the Lord. Sure. But is it enough for EVERY individual man? Men...

    None are good. All miss the mark. All are corrupt. All are FROM a CORRUPTABLE "SEED"!! All are in sin. There are umpteen teachings of what a NATRUAL BORN MAN "IS". "IF" and "WHEN" a man BECOMES "CONVERTED"....THE "EFFECT" of the Lord Conversion within A MAN...."IS"... WHAT A MAN "WAS", NO...

    It has already been established men who hear, read, learn, are putting forth an effort. That is the mans part. His effort. It has already been established men are given gifts and blessings for their effort to seek God. When a man is putting forth an effort to hear, read, learn about God...

    You are the one who believes, by your own comment, that men who came up with OSAS, did so with misuse of scritpure. The question was which scriptures were they using?

    That's too bad. You should have taught them the truth. Salvation is received as a gift from God. Faith is received as a gift from God. Gifts received from God are kept by the Power of God...1 Pet 1:5
