    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Most modern believers will fail every honesty test because the beliefs they hold are arrived at through dishonesty. And even when they SEE that they still cling to their dishonesty like a life raft for the outer man.

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Here is an honesty test for you. How many kinds of people...eternal destinies... do you read here? (and then compare that to someone with grade 1 reading skills, what any unbiased 5 year old would say...as a child would read it)) He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Most people that read the bible today understand neither holiness nor righteousness. Consequently what comes from a reading of the bible is an unbalanced mess. Enter the devil who proclaims a falsehood that quickly gains popularity, that God permits to test those who are neither humble...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    That's not in context....that is a novice mistake of thinking one verse cancels all other verses that says something different. You have taken one verse out of context and destroyed righteousness that God accepts. Amazing. In one fell swoop you undo all teachings of Jesus including the sermon...

    How many times have you read this verse? But in every nation he that fears God and does righteousness is accepted with Him

    Phariseeism in the Modern Church

    Lip-service but wrong spirited. More lip-service. I don't do lip-service with pretenders.

    Phariseeism in the Modern Church

    False. And you speak lies. Notice the goodness and severity of God. You are excluded from what you think you are included in. So without God's mercy, that you look down on...you are toast. You just don't know it. The false spirits are in the church as well as outside the church. A religious...

    Christianity is NOT Derived From Judaism

    What you are not seeing is the difference between righteousness and holiness. What has been replaced is the holiness aspect of Judaism. The righteousness aspect has not. In fact in many ways the Jews are STILL more righteous than most Christians. How? They allow for others beside themselves to...

    Phariseeism in the Modern Church

    That's what I just said. But you don't understand the truth. Righteousness is about DOING God's will. Jesus said not all will enter the kingdom but those who DO the will of My Father in heaven. So call Jesus a liar. The foundation that Jesus calls for is DOING what He says. Building your house...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    I don't know when your are all going to realize you are speaking empty platitudes, self-congratulatory approvals, and theories of things you have no understanding of...for the most part. People have veered so off course that this thread has long been hijacked...just like the bible has been...

    Phariseeism in the Modern Church

    Every cult is unbalanced and champions either one aspect of truth or another...accepting only half-truths and lies. But these who love the truth seek out the balance. For example righteousness works by BOTH faith and works. Whereas holiness is only by faith since no one can overcome sin by...

    Phariseeism in the Modern Church

    How revealing! We read into it what we need to. Just like the way people read the bible to hijack grace and salvation to serve their own selfish needs.

    Phariseeism in the Modern Church

    I don't know what people are learning from the sunday pulpiteers but it certainly isn't the truth. A novice will read a verse and think that's all there is to it...without realizing that every verse is balanced by another verse that seemingly contradicts it. Only the truth reconciles the seeming...

    Phariseeism in the Modern Church

    The Pharisee will improve their doctrinal accuracy over time...at least the theory of it. They will understand that God breaks down before He builds back up., for instance. And yet these will reject any breaking from the Lord. For these it remains a theory. In practice there is no humility or...

    The world of the Pharisee is a world of pretend. In such a world of pretend, real issues are either soft-pedaled or ignored entirely. Children can play "special forces" without having to undergo any of the rigorous training that would qualify them for such in the real world.. So it is in the...

    The crows are out. But I am speaking the truth. Of course the adversary wants to tear down what brings light and truth. One crow can be handled...even as they try to obfuscate the truth...but when crows gather it is death to any truth and decency. That's why a flock of crows is called a...

    This is not about being a believer or unbeliever but about what one does to others. We will not be judged by the accuracy of pour beliefs. You are twisting my words. My warnings are real and the ramifications are real.

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    You are not understanding what the principle is about. It is about having mercy as God does. And if Jesus was on the forum, He would be a LOT harsher than I am. Just remember how gentle He was with the Pharisees of His time. Rather, we are to have mercy on the meek, the fatherless, the widow...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    This slander proves that you were lying in your previous post. If it caws like a crow .... Why do you attack a show of humility in someone who made an honest mistake? I see your duplicitous nature. How can you not correct yourself or realize the depth of your sinfulness?
