    Perfection

    Azim there are just too many to name in the last 4 weeks. The first was when I prayed for a woman's friend whom she had been witnessed to for 30 years. She was saved that week. Oh it happens daily that the Lord restores something that was amiss the last period of 5 years of being out of the...

    I think you got me confused with someone else.

    Perfection

    I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live. It is Christ in me, keeping me from all sin with a pure and holy heart. This is Christianity.

    Perfection

    I did repent of my sin twice. Once on coming to the Lord on 23rd September 1973 at 9 pm after an atheist up bringing, when I encountered the Lord for the first time and walked in heaven for the first few weeks. I knew that Jesus had died for me on the cross and I had forgiveness. Then 17 years...

    Perfection

    Why fear for me, for hungering and thirsting for holiness, then following the teaching of the NT and ECF witness to God doing it for me? I am walking in an amazing way with prayers answered and miracles daily.

    You are correct and honest. You have not yet been delivered.

    Perfection

    How does James seem to show we can be perfect? John said if we claim we are (present tense) without sin, we deceive ourselves and there is no truth in us. How can we perfectly love God and all people every second of every minute of every hour of every day 365 days a year. and never put selof...

    Apostasy

    This a very interesting although long talk on Holy Baptism by Gregory Nazianzen 381. Bear in mind that at that time, water baptism in Eastern Orthodoxy, was followed by the laying on of hands by the bishop for the baptism of the Spirit, so they were both expected to happen at the same time. He...

    Acts 21:4

    The Greek does not change the meaning, it only gives emphasis. The HS would not forbid anyway. But the meaning is clear - it was not God's will that he went. Interested in what you call 'a real Bible'. Here is a piece I have just written about it. Did God send Paul to Jerusalem? Acts 21:4...

    Acts 21:4

    Of course. Nobody should know better than Paul that his life was on the line wherever he was. Satan would make sure of that. But you are ignoring the fact that the Spirit told him not to go to Jerusalem and the Greek is a strong do not. . I think that he wanted to go because he had some money...

    Acts 21:4

    But @Behold this was an imperative: And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days who said to Paul through the Spirit that he should not go to Jerusalem. The others were prophesies.

    Acts 21:4

    So, @Behold, are you saying that Paul ignored what God was saying to him, not to go?

    Acts 21:4

    And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days who said to Paul through the Spirit that he should not go to Jerusalem. So was this the Holy Spirit trying to get through to Paul who had his mind set that he would go to Jerusalem despite the prophesies about what would happen there? Or did...

    What do you consider to be the most important chapter in the bible?

    Without a doubt it is Romans 7, the battle-ground of theologians. You fall into one of three camps: 1) An unbeliever, possibly Paul as a Pharisee. 2) A believer who struggles with sin. Most Calvinists are here. 3) A believer who has previously struggled with sin since he was converted, but...

    Trinity Ban

    Well hello there @Grailhunter! Nice to meet you! I love to have my beliefs challenged, and am willing and have changed them over the years as I only care about TRUTH in my developing ministry as an apologist. So firstly let me understand where you are coming from, being new here. You are an...

    Trinity Ban

    I don't understand why discussing the Trinity is banned on a Christian forum. I do understand why banning discussions against the Trinity should be banned. It is these surely that cause the trouble.

    How to put on Christ

    To put off the old man, first of all you must repent. Repent that you have fallen from your first love for Christ when you were in the honeymoon period. Your love has run cool. You respect Him yes, but do you love Him with your whole mind soul and strength? This is the love He wants from you...
