So you are saying that Jesus wasn't human? He was just an emanation from God? He only SEEMED to have a body? Many follow Docetism because they don't want to be responsible for their own actions. A denial of Jesus as a mere human as well as being God is a denial of Christ. And we are to follow...

Amen. Paul had to contend with Jews trying to convert believers in Christ to Judaism. I don't have to contend with that. I do have to contend with people who use imaginary imagery to conjure up a scheme in which they think they understand Paul to mean God is trying to save their flesh. :rolleyes:

I don't think people realize that to reject an ambassador of Christ is to reject Christ. Inasmuch as you did it to the least of these my brethren, you did it to me. People read the bible like a book of wishful thinking but miss God at every turn. You can't reach a holy place through beliefs and...

You know nothing of history my friend. You won't benefit by my experience because you have not yet encountered the living God. And you won't unless you take heed to what I'm saying. But you won't understand that. You need to DISCERN the body. The gift of one is for all. If you refuse my...

Paul is speaking about righteousness as something already dual...he was not against the fear of the Lord or against humility. He wasn't trying to destroy human righteousness. He was talking about the law and righteousness according to temple holiness...obeying ALL the commandments of God. The...

Silly question. The training of a saint involves going in and out of the Spirit. When IN the Spirit there is no sin. This is based on glory. When in the flesh (absent from the Lord) then the walk is based on OUR level of faithfulness. This is based on God's MERCY. All the ways of God are based...

Jesus came to fulfill ALL righteousness. Both God's holy righteousness and human righteousness. Paul is talking about the connection to God here...the righteousness of faith that gets us translated into a walk in resurrection life. Unless Jesus died and was resurrected again He could not give us...

Most believers forget that Jesus is BOTH God and a man. People say Lord Lord because they want something from Him as God and even claim to have His righteousness without DOING what He did as a man. People want half a Jesus they prefer by disobeying Him. Jesus says...why do you call me Lord and...

This is silly. You are reserving the judgment of saying yes and no by the very limited knowledge of good and evil you possess. And you manage to get that wrong because your attitude is not surrendered...it is still in the ego phase.

God calls us into the victory of Christ to walk in resurrection life without sin....as a GIFT...fully unmerited. That is the salvation of the gospel. We are saved FROM sin not IN sin. There are 2 levels to the christian walk. The goodness AND severity of God. What we do (according to mercy) and...

This is a very carnal and selfish reasoning. You are only looking at Jesus for what you can get out of Him. You are missing the point of the gospel completely. It's not a lifeboat for the flesh. It's a call to surrender. Christ's righteousness is on 2 levels. What He did as a man, AND what He...

Your questions are fully outside the scope of the bible. They are taught only in man-made institutions. But for clarification I will correct your questions and give answers according to what the bible teaches... 1. We only "get to heaven" right now. We are meant to be seated in heavenly places...

I pegged you exactly right....you have a lawless salvation and you are saved IN your sin. And all the false pretenses to cover up an honest admission of what you actually do. ALL indoctrinated ones are like this. There is a pattern of selecting verses out of context to mock the truth contained...

The religious system churns out people that ape what they have been indoctrinated into. Not real believers but poster children of an ideology based on the traditions of men. But knowing an ideology does not mean one knows God. The bible does not replace God. The letter kills but the Spirit gives...

I could ask you the same question...but you are not here to be honest only to regurgitate whatever form of doctrine you heard last that you liked. But why do you think the wages of sin is NOT death for you?

You need to stop using your own understanding. But for those who have an issue with the kingdom of God being a meritocracy... Just one example... And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? 7 If thou do well, shall you not be accepted? and if you do not...

Here is what you are looking for... “Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;” 1 Tim 4:2 This speaks of no longer thinking sin is an issue with God...as the Babylonian system teaches.

What you are not seeing is that this is about serving God...not ignoring works. Do you realize that serving the living God involves works?

The difference is that you are a hammer looking for a nail. Are you just reacting to a sermon you heard on Sunday (or on line)? Now you are looking for people who hate freedom? Do you realize that Paul was speaking about the Jews who were trying to convert Christians to Judaism? Judaizers. Have...

You have been indoctrinated by men. The bible says that works salvation is accepted with God. What you are saying goes against the words of God. You seem to have seen a lot in your time. However, I don't think you know what you are talking about. Freedom in Christ is freedom from sin...not...
