Indeed but the only disagreement that counts is over the issue of what God expects of us in this life ie entire sanctification or the deliverance from the presence of sin, which is the answer to mans' problems. There were of course opposers to this question and is now endemic. They are said...

Thanks sister I appreciate the support as it has been tough. Up till this week I have only been able to drive a couple of miles shopping but this week it has been four hours over the four days. The Lord enabled. Yes I agree. The remnant is very small today. There has always been opposition to...

My computer is all sorted, after a wait of ten days and many one hour heavy driving trips taking it back and forth, for further work. It was the system driver, then I found out, the mouse needing replaced. Even though it was extremely stressful, not driving much of late, due to my health, I feel...

Oops was meant to be in the previous post @marks. Good news! New tech has fixed it and l lost nothing! Thank you Father!

She stopped because she had felt the full force of his blows. Maybe she naively thought he was not going to do that to a woman.

I can't understand why the woman went ahead with the fight, after she saw the obviously male body of her contestant in the ring.

This idea would go against the whole principle of the OT and the cleansing of the temple before God could come down and dwell in it.OF Brethren l am very sorry l am unable to get back to answer all of the questions that still remain. The shop l took my pc to is messing about and l still, since...

No. Why?

That which transforms man so that he can partake in the nature of God. I will give it more thought but that's off the top of my head. In my understanding the transformation is the reception of the new nature not a gradual moral improvement. How do you explain the difference between the average...

A lot of the early writings were apologetics, to keep out the heresies that were forcing themselves into the church. We have to remember this. So they had to use non biblical terminology at times to differentiate the ideas disputed. They made clear that the energies of God were separate from His...

No theology is perfect, they all have inconsistencies say theologians, at varying degrees, but l believe that if we do a pick and mix, which is what many do these days and may l say without offending, the method you lay out, we are using ourselves as the authority, which is what Protestantism...

Well sort of. As brother Johann has pointed out the early church had an understanding about sharing in the energies of God. Being partakers of the divine nature, not expected in western doctors of theology.

If what you said was true, then there would not be thousands of denominations. I agree that scripture interprets scripture, but the theology we are drawn to has a huge impact on us. I saw that so clearly when my theology did a flip when seeing Calvinism was ignoring so many texts. We become...

This idea of not being able to stay in it till maturity is the stage before we become pillars in the temple of going in and out no more. Sorry no ref till l get my pc back tomorrow hopefully. And thanks for prayers, the vertigo has gone!

Calling it entire sanctification, l think that we fall back to being sanctified. That is to say that we can not sin deliberately but unable to avoid unintentional sin. I think now that it was the stage of being discipled after being called by God. The EFF call it Purgation, the period when we...

PC in for repair sigh.

We are made right with God through faith and then it is up to us to co-operative with the pricks to our conscience. If we ignore them which most do, we will end up compromising with sin and lose the first love we had for Him. The whole of scripture pleads with God's people to return and repent...

I also wish to apologise most sincerely that l was rather short a few times yesterday. Sorry.

Not getting much sleep. I thought l would enlarge on what l have said @marks on losing the blessing. I have read of the phenomenon in Wesley writings where John would go out and investigate cases professing ES. It is hard for the inexperienced to avoid slipping into what scripture calls leaning...
