    The social gospel?

    Is this a nursery? Let no one take our rattles. Romper room...unite! And you are not helping RJ in her trouble...but do you care?

    The social gospel?

    No one is saved from the penalty of sin. The soul that sins it shall die. You have to deny God Himself to promote your scheme...which is fully unbiblical. Even Paul says the same thing...and you deny it. So you are just a schemer who think he can exploit what Jesus did for his own ends. Not a...

    Saved FROM sin. Listen very carefully. :cool:

    The social gospel?

    A tree is known of its fruit. Humans are very complicated creatures...possessing both an inner man and outer man. People are mixed and give mixed signals/messages all the time. The more inconsistent, the more unstable the soul. By inconsistent, I mean not able to communicate in a mature way...

    LOL Are you saved? Ps. Stop taking yourself so seriously.. ease up a little. This is a forum not an inquisition joy:

    When are God's Elect Justified?

    I have rejected the translators understanding when it comes to important passages about the mystery of Christ...by understanding the truth even as it is laid out in the unfiltered, non-diverted, non-curated bible.

    The social gospel?

    To understand spiritual things a person needs to be spiritual in Christ. So your admitting to not understand things I say I take to mean you are immature and stuck in a most basic loop...an obsession...that can't help anyone. You are defending yourself whereas people need to be understood and...

    The social gospel?

    I'm posting a proper understanding of scripture to those who don't have it. I can also help somebody carry the groceries. I don't claim to be growing by doing that. You are filtering everything you read through a self-righteous agenda...on the defensive. You are stuck on an obsession that many...

    The social gospel?

    How so? Are you saying that I'm diverting from my own thread? Aren't you on a bent or tangent that is fixated on the very first step of a race? over and over and over. You are deaf. You only have an historical regeneration to fall back on...and you can't advance even one step because you are...

    The social gospel?

    If you have actually read my posts without seeing through a haze of faux ego outrage o_O ...you would see that I'm against naming and claiming and assuming and presuming...that identifies modern evangelicalism (and state of the art Phariseeism). With the humble and meek I have no issue...as I...

    Could you try posting without being so repetitive for no reason...without using the term "born again" in every sentence, let alone twice in the same sentence. That would be appreciated by me and probably a few others here. :)

    The social gospel?

    I both obey and understand them. A rarity is our time. Theoretically. But we are living in a time where people can't endure sound doctrine. Read the bible. We are living in a pretend time of imaginations. The Laodicean age of the church. So you think it's business as usual...comparing what the...

    The social gospel?

    Believe what? That is by an imagination...one that thinks that grace is about an amnesty from prosecution for sins. Of course that is false. The same imaginers think that they don't have to obey God. Maybe better than being a reformist. But why not seek God for yourself? Outside man-made...

    The social gospel?

    Are you asking if I believe in Jesus Christ? Do you believe that Jesus was sinful? Imperfect? He gives us HIS perfection when we enter INTO Him. In Him is no sin. Are you a believer IN Christ? (not just about Christ)

    When are God's Elect Justified?

    The bible interprets the bible. And false doctrines..based on faulty translations...can easily be refuted by comparison with other verses that weren't similarly tampered with. In keeping with the topic of this thread I offer a better translation of a verse that was used previously to explain a...

    When are God's Elect Justified?

    That's how discussions begin. Of course I denied it...because you are not understanding the bible narrative. I could help you with it...or we could compare notes...and then we and maybe others could learn ...either to be more sure of what we believe, or else question those beliefs that are not...

    When are God's Elect Justified?

    Good discussion..I guess that is as much as you can stoop to ...in conversation rather than judge.

    The social gospel?

    Well, when men get a hold of eternal ideas they tend to compromise in order to appeal to the majority. Only puffed up egos hate the idea that somebody knows more or is more advanced than they are. Jesus was hated by the religious establishment as in...hey...WE never approved of this rabbi, so...

    The social gospel?

    Holiness under the law of Moses: simply set apart for temple use. Holiness under grace: To be where He is, walking in His power and presence and life. So you can see which one people prefer...although the temple is now gone...so being set apart has no more use UNLESS we come OUT from Babylon...

    The social gospel?

    I only trust the bible to define the terms of the bible. So we might have a divergence of understanding based on popular culture. Are we to have a different KIND of holiness than God? Is God only "set apart" ?? Or is holiness something eternal..something relating ONLY to God? Sure we can be...
