    Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.

    Leaders That Don't Support Good Works or Overcoming Sin

    I leave it for people to choose...either Jesus Barabbas...and the freedom from prosecution for sins....OR...Jesus Bar Abba the Son of the living God...who went to the cross to liberate us from sin and give us His life and holiness to be His Bride and live forever in holiness with the Father who...

    Leaders That Don't Support Good Works or Overcoming Sin

    Reading skills and lack of honesty aside...I have stated, for those who can read, that Jesus didn't have to come to us to accomplish God's mercy..as God has always been merciful. God doesn't need the cross to forgive,. That's a false gospel. The devil wants to insult God by saying that someone...

    Leaders That Don't Support Good Works or Overcoming Sin

    Only God can forgive sins in an eternal way. And He has always done so. He decides who is forgiven...and He is a very merciful God. What God doesn't forgive is the pretense of pretenders that accuse others who are actually saved by grace. You are claiming to be forgiven for all sins past...

    Leaders That Don't Support Good Works or Overcoming Sin

    It's obvious that God is holy and needs to bring us into that holiness to have intimacy with Him. Jesus came to reconcile us to a holy walk...not just forgive a constant unholiness. Paul was merely sent to the nations as a mission...not because the message was any different. Those who deviate...

    Good to hear. :) We need to encourage one another into the upward calling of Christ. Peace and blessings to you <><

    Leaders That Don't Support Good Works or Overcoming Sin

    That's God's character...merciful. Jesus didn't have to come to die to accomplish God's mercy. But people were not able to be holy...so Jesus died to give people a way into holiness through Him. You think of Paul as a mediator...replacing Jesus who you say is only for the Jews. You have fully...

    Basically, this poster is relying on an active religious imagination. No power except to cover up sin, obfuscate and deny.

    Does God Love Everyone?

    In principle God loves all people....all people have the potential to either be accepted with God or please Him. We all have an inner man created in God's image. The problem is our rebellious attitude.....lodged in the sin nature of the outer man...and so many won't let go of it. People who look...

    A novice looks for evil in anything unfamiliar. You want to fight against evil...look within yourself.

    (Notice how the word "holiness" is still avoided like the plague by this poster) All you want is a forgiveness without holiness. We'll see how that works out for you.

    Spiritual Warfare

    (Notice how the word "holiness" is ignored, obfuscated and avoided.) Look at how the cross is made to be about something that already existed (God's bountiful mercy, patience, and forgiveness) whereas the TRUE nature of the cross is about santification (holiness).

    LOL. That's an important word for you. ;) So you are saying you are not against God having a holy place for those who are translated to walk as Jesus walked? What kind of human reasoning is that? My race is to both win Christ and walk as He walked. How others did so is not my concern beyond...

    So if we are to extrapolate, tally, carry the one, and come to a conclusion, are you for or against the upward call into holiness? I mean, just for the record.

    Spiritual Warfare

    People here with as a yet un-seared conscience should wonder why they are so hostile to the idea of a higher walk in holiness. What, do people think they already know all there is to know about God? Is God not infinite? Where does the pride and hubris come from some here who deny the upward call...

    Spiritual Warfare

    Not so. Holiness for us is a place...IN Christ with God in heaven. I have stated on more than one occasion that the higher walk is in holiness. No. Receiving things FROM heaven is not the same going TO heaven by translation by the Spirit. The contrary message comes from people who have...

    Spiritual Warfare

    "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." Matt. 5:48 There are at least 3 words in Hebrew that could be cited that are translated in the bible as "perfect. But seemingly only one in Greek (telios). But if you look at the context and the wording...we could...

    I wouldn't be so hard on Paul. He uses the same words in different ways...whether "perfect" or "law". It depends on the context and already understanding what Paul is referring to. As Paul says... God will show you by revelation what it means. (That's how I know) I'm convinced that trying to...

    Mixture is what the religious system does. It's important to keep the lower walk and higher walk distinct...otherwise there is mixture. Holiness doesn't mix with anything. The New Covenant is based on.......holiness.
