    Are You Dead to Self?

    Yes, yes... God is good....and the devil is bad. I find some here have such an infantile approach....based on a humanistic religion of self-preservation...so much so, that the bible is fully misunderstood...as if we have to dumb down that much to believe in God. Your whole approach is...

    Where did the Bible come from? - Shot out of a canon

    Shot out of a cannon? More like shot into a Canon. ;)

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ (Romans 8:1)

    Agreed. Those who are IN Christ personally don't sin. In Him is no sin. There is a difference between being corporately in Christ (in His mouth but not yet swallowed) and abiding in Him personally. We remain in Christ conditionally...through obedience to God's will.

    Are You Dead to Self?

    More humour...or just extremely shallow understanding? Hard to tell. If it's humour...it is funny. :)

    Are You Dead to Self?

    Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, Ps. 1:1

    Are You Dead to Self?

    Then you have your next move before you. You can start by going back on all the slander, lies and hypocrisies you and others have levied against me....and go back and list them all and bring your heartfelt remorse at being that way before God.

    What Is "Salvation" In 1 Corinthians 10?

    I think Paul is talking about such things as meat sacrificed to idols. We could say in our time...secular songs. Sin is in the heart. A person can eat what is sacrificed to idols without any sin. Likewise a Christian can enjoy a song.... by say...Elton John (a gay man) without sin. If the eye...

    Are You Dead to Self?

    Take the mask off. Your holier than thou attitude derails this thread...a thread about the need to be rid of the flesh nature. And see how the flesh reacts here. Anything to take away from the dire need to depart from iniquity. You are here to derail, obfuscate....and defend the flesh. What I...

    LOL. Take off the mask. You expose your own darkness. Faux outrage and hypocrisy alert.

    What Is "Salvation" In 1 Corinthians 10?

    It's not about touch not or taste not. It's about a new nature...not self-discipline (although there is a real value in self-control..) People have imaginations....and reading the bible many put themselves into the narrative in a positive way...unable to see their true spiritual...

    What Is "Salvation" In 1 Corinthians 10?

    The more you expose the flesh..the more reactions you will get. I don't want to consider what sins are behind the scene...I want to confront the false reasoning based on a misappropriation of the scriptures. Ex. The wages of sin is death (but not for me???) but the gift of God is eternal life...

    Are You Dead to Self?

    For the record...there's a dire need for many on this thread to turn from sin and iniquity....and believe INTO Christ.

    What Is "Salvation" In 1 Corinthians 10?

    On that level....many have been indoctrinated into a religious scheme that blinds them to the meaning of the gospel. Having eyes that don't see and ears that don't hear. It's amazing really. And the more you try explaining the plain truth...the more these will turn on you. It's the flesh with...

    Are You Dead to Self?

    So false...gaslighting and lying...why don't you believe in Jesus? Why not repent? Now if I hounded you all day about your dire need to believe in Jesus... would you agree and call that a good discernment? How superficial are your beliefs? You are sinking lower and lower every day... But if I...

    What Is "Salvation" In 1 Corinthians 10?

    All it takes is some honesty and a little humility....and guidance from God. :) All these you will find in short supply here...and in the modern version of churchianity. :rolleyes:

    What Is "Salvation" In 1 Corinthians 10?

    What? You have fully misunderstood salvation and grace. The bible doesn't say that the wages of sin are no longer death. Grace overcomes sin or it isn't grace from God.

    Are You Dead to Self?

    This is what happens when I don't answer a fool...the simple are persuaded. :rolleyes: But that's the agenda from some around here. No honesty and loads of superficiality.

    Are You Dead to Self?

    The first truth you have spoken... there may yet be hope for you..

    Are You Dead to Self?

    When you are ready to repent of the carnal dependence on your own religiously puffed up outer man...whom you justify through religious beliefs that can't save you.... perhaps then you will become coherent enough to stop saying the same vain things over and over again. Apply those slogans to...

    Deconstruction: Into Apostasy

    There's questioning and there's questioning. Is the OT really just a collection of ancient prejudices based on seeing God from a human perspective as the liberal bent ones say? Is the bible so infallible that faulty translations are to be seen as more authoritative than the original texts as...
