I really don't want to get into another debate about OSAS right now.

Still can't even begin to discuss holiness with you because you still have it all surrounded by false doctrines and limit the power of the cross to what you can see with your natural eyes. The thief on the cross sure found out what the power of the cross did for him, and he didn't have time to...

Some OSAS folks don't believe it is possible to fall away and be cut off due to sin.

Suffice to say, your assumptions are way off as usual.

Surely we are to know/discern the difference between good and bad fruit.

I guess the man who first found the pearl of great price, and then went off to pay a price for it was schizoid then. I do not say nor think that I am rich and in need of nothing. Even Paul was not of that mindset and instructed others to be of the same mind as he. But your disingenuousness...

Nobody here is throwing out God's standards, except maybe some of the OSAS people. On the contrary, we affirm God's standards and know we can't possibly measure up to them in our own right and through our own efforts, apart from Him. Forgiveness is being freed/loosed from the debt and dominion...

The very first thing everyone needs to do in obedience to Jesus and the gospel is to BELIEVE HIM/IT. Religious nuttiness....that is what the gospel is to some people, yes. Foolishness. Nothing gets them madder than a hornet than hearing the gospel being preached, for some reason. "you...

From what she said about how her arm felt it sounds like the IV was interstitial (in the tissue of her arm), not in a vein. (Horrible to even talk about. Though I'm not against governments in general having capital punishment, when it is just. What a world this is.)

We're all called to inspect/discern the fruits, and even some more than others. Jesus said by their fruits you will know them. We very much need to examine/inspect our own fruits as well.

Amen, another paradox.........we HAVE come to the heavenly city, and yet are still seeking it. We have been translated into the kingdom and we have been made the righteousness of God, and yet still are told to seek His kingdom and His righteousness. We ARE dead and our old man HAS been...

Dear Lord........ Does anyone know if she is a believer now? Might this be God's mercy?

Falsely accusing as unrighteous all who do not accept everything he says is a righteous thing in his eyes. Which means he is making himself the standard.

Yes, but He has brought us out to bring us in. He has brought us out of bondage to sin in order to lead us into something. What He is saving us "to".

Tithing under the Law was a picture (type/shadow) of something else (it wasn't even about money then, it was the fristfruits/tithe of their crops). It means Holy to the Lord....firstfruits. Like out of the ten lepers who were cleansed only one returned to Jesus.....a "tithe". God said to...

We need to consider, what is He saving us to? And as it is HIS "perfection" that we would be walking/living in, we still will always need Him.

It's one of those paradoxes of scripture I believe. We do have our part and price to pay.....Hebrews 4 says "let us labour therefore to enter into that rest". And yet at the same time, it says "we who believe HAVE entered His rest" (but I believe these things are speaking at the same time of a...

Amen. It reminds me of this: Amo 5:19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house (for refuge), and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

Episkopos seems to think he is the righteous man/prophet that if anyone receives him they are saved by that. Kind of a Catholic idea. I guess that's why he is so hard on those who don't accept him hook line and sinker. And his way of evangelizing is to draw people to himself. I believe there...

Amen, and it is such a minefield out there today, or maybe it has always been since the early church and apostles. Paul was always battling to keep it out of the church and John said there were many antichrists even back then. What I notice about the son of perdition is a sense that he draws...
