    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    One more point about being reconciled to God by the death of Jesus. That reconciliation was for the whole world...not individual people. To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    The righteous and the meek are not seeking to be justified. Most believers are indeed seeking to be justified by Christ. But seeking to be justified by the death of Jesus is a dead religion. Seeking to be justified by the LIFE of Jesus is what Jesus commanded us to do as we seek first the...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    You are mixing standards and choosing the aspects that you like while ignoring the conditions of each. All unlearned people do this. Jesus died for the sins of the whole world...not just the church. But He was raised for OUR justification. Who is the "our"? The church. The death of Jesus is...

    That's what you are doing. I'm saying that death has been swallowed up by life. And that life is better than death...and you have a conniption. That's you twisting my words as usual in a serpentine kind of way. WITHOUT the resurrection of Christ then Jesus's death is only an improvement on the...

    What will Jesus (Who is alive) say to those who built their hopes on a dead Christ?

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    And the new covenant is not based just on a better sacrifice that leaves us dead in our sins. The WHOLE gospel centers on Jesus' resurrection...not His death. So you are fully missing what the gospel is about..and the New Covenant. You are being satisfied with an improvement of the Old Covenant...

    Do you see that...RAISED for our justification? Is that the death of Jesus or the resurrection life of Jesus given to us by grace through faith?

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    There is a HUGE misunderstanding among the unlearned here (and elsewhere) concerning what is meant by being justified by the blood of Christ...or washing our garments in His blood. Many here follow a death religion as opposed to having a LIFE from God. Why does no one seek God anymore? Well...

    Some people here have a HARD time with the truth...but it was prophesied in these times that few if any will be able to endure sound doctrine. And here it is. Why troll my threads if you want to rant and ignore what the bible says?

    I am pointing out false doctrine. Some people here live in an echo chamber where they think they are the orthodox ones....whereas the opposite is true. Here you show a lack of understanding of the gospel. the life is in the blood...not the death. When I posted....that if Jesus be not raised...

    With some people...it's all about getting what you want...religion style. The religious privilege status spills over pills over any kind of communication.

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Holiness is a gift from God. We become PARTAKERS of Christ's holiness when we put on Christ...who knows no sin. The bible NEVER says we learn holiness. No, holiness is about location...being seated with Christ WHERE He is. Righteousness is compatible with WISDOM. But even a fool can enter into...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    Grace is a free gift...not something earned over time. We attain to the pinnacle of holiness by entering into Christ by grace through faith. Holiness is about location...being found IN Him...who knows no sin. In Him is no sin. That we may be partakers of His holiness. We put on Christ...that...

    Amen. God knows human reasoning inside and out. And so does the devil. The genius of God is to weave what is an evil and selfish intent into something selfless and beneficial for ALL but them. This wisdom is lost on those who continue to pursue the failed, but seemingly right way, that God has...

    Wow. First off, there is no 2 "he's".... just one. He was made sin by (for) us....that's it. And the fact that you would allow the word "god" to be added into a text where that word is not found...tells me all I need to know about how you care for the truth.

    The bible says...the 7 spirits of God. God is the God of spirits. Does that statement mean that God only has 7 spirits to work with? And the Israelite tested God 10 times in the desert before He rejected them. That would be 3 more times than He gives the righteous? God decides when enough is...

    Reviving Biblical Christianity (The Way) Part 2

    The cross of Christ is meant to kill our outer man sin nature...so that we can partake of His resurrection life in the inner man. Jesus passed through death in order to defeat it through a resurrection life made for a new Covenant with us. The cross is about sanctification...killing what...

    7 times...yes..which just means many times. I have been in and out of the Spirit twice now. I'm working on my 3rd talent. Endeavoring to add in a growing maturity to the purity of holiness I was allowed to experience. People who don't have that experience think I'm making things up because...

    The profane is the common. You had an amazingly accurate statement...which is fully supported in the bible. That's how we know that our spirit is aligned with God.

    Yes. One can be at peace with God in humility without the heavenly walk. One can experience moments...touches...from God as one turns one's heart to Him. One can collect the dew of the morning even in a drought. :)
