I can't get you to see something that is beyond your sight. But there still is one thing you can do ...even in darkness...and that is to believe. You can have faith in the God of the impossible. With men it is impossible. But you can reach out to God by faith. Maybe you can't see how all your...

The law of Moses was a holiness set of laws that separated God's people from others. To be part of God's people at that time one had to be circumcised etc.. But the law of God from Sinai is for all flesh. It is based on righteousness. And God will judge the WORLD in righteousness (not holiness)...

You are confusing establishing the law by faith, with...being under the power of the law. If we sin every day...then we are under the law. Sin has us in its grip. To be liberated from the power of sin and come under grace we need to go to the cross....that crucifies the part of us that has sin...

False. The law remains...we ESTABLISH the law through faith. We fulfill the law by the power of the Spirit. Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law. Rom. 3:31 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but...

LOL. Backward logic. There is a law and people continue to transgress it...UNLESS they walk in the power of Christ that FULFILLS the law. According to the gospel and the cross that liberates people from the power of sin....not just forgives them. The law remains....and is the standard by which...

LOL. You are missing the point of the gospel. The point is to be quickened into new life....not an overturning of the law. :cool: The law remains...but the power to overcome as Jesus overcame is provided by Jesus...by grace through faith. You want the wages of sin to be overturned. But God...

Certainty certainly worked for the Pharisees. So we have an historical precedent to follow. :rolleyes:

Many resist the spiritual nature of the truth and the power that is available through the Lord over sin. They want grace to mean an amnesty for being sold under sin, a constant forgiveness, rather than the power to walk as Jesus walked. They want forgiveness without holiness. They want words...

I know where the gospel has been deviated and why it happened. It is the very resistance of the flesh to the truth witnessed here that is in the way of restoring the gospel of power and life.

I marvel at God's wisdom. To expose darkness by bringing in light where people don't expect it. To expose self-interest in those claim to know Him when they do everything opposite to His commandments. God is fearsome in His judgments. But only the meek will fear and escape that judgment. Can I...

Your gang chases the meek off of forums...because you bully them as you and your gang are doing to me. You have no understanding at all. And you continue to justify yourself for doing wrong all the time. The meek are quiet...a quiet and gentle spirit that God loves. But your group are railers...

You are confusing Jesus with Buddha. If you knew Hebrew better you would know that the prophecies about God dwelling AMONG His people (OT)...as well as in them(NT saints). In the case of Jesus speaking to the Pharisees (NOT NT saints), Jesus was saying that the kingdom of God was in their...

False as can be. Maybe you can't receive instruction or correction....and maybe you try stopping others from advancing beyond what you have limited God to? For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.

You are doing the same or worse, are you not? You believe the bible saves you. Being religious makes you right with God? Without any say so from God Himself? Why? Because others do the same? The Pharisees also hung out with each other. They voted as a majority against Christ and His disciples...

Exactly what you do. You called it...you do it. Try NOT deflecting for a moment.

It's funny that you don't question the self-interest gang. That's natural. What isn't natural are people with actual spiritual discernment. For you these are aberrations. For that you cry foul. Do I complain when birds of a feather flock together against me? You betray your true motive in...

LOL I affirm that the foundation is found in Christ. The foundation is Jesus Christ. It's not in people as you suggest. Otherwise it is the Buddhist notion of finding the truth within yourself...having spiritual experiences with yourself. No, the foundation is Christ. The location of our...

It's not my dollar to give. It is the Lord who brings the increase. People want affirmation. I will only affirm what is eternal in nature and value...or else is honest and righteously sincere.

That is something you can talk to God about.

Is there any hope for those who choose Barabbas (those who choose amnesty and forgiveness over sacrifice and holiness)? In my estimation...no. Is there any hope for those who want to choose both Barabbas AND Jesus? Both amnesty/forgiveness AND sacrifice/holiness? (At least in theory) Like a...
