    new version of OSAS?

    I’ve said it many times——- Repentance is mandantory! It just ain’t what most people think it is....it’s not Turning “FROM “ sins......it’s Turning “ TO” God as a Lost Sinner That MUST have A Savior.... A picture of the Repentance That Saves is Found in the story of the wicked Tax Collector who...

    What does “ wittering ” mean? I was asked to explain what I thought about “ repentance”..... I did that . ....excuuuuuuuse me!

    new version of OSAS?

    Saving Repentance is essentially the realization that, “ Hey , my thinking has been wrong—- it had better get ” right” or I am in for Big Trouble ! My “ thinking” USED to be that even though I was not perfect, I was not as bad as those guys in prison! THOSE are the guys that need to get Saved...

    new version of OSAS?

    I think that we “ can” know what was in the mind if Judas to a very large degree....he said it himself....” I have betrayed innocent Blood”...... Regardless of his Conviction Of sin, regardless of his remorse or repentance, it is as you say....we was a Son Of the Devil all along....He was...

    new version of OSAS?

    I have stated that I am talking about verses that come from the KJV.....some other versions just say anything....I made that clear earlier.....I was amiss not to say it recently for the viewers that are new to my challenge....” my bad” , as we kids say....( I am near 70).... lol....

    new version of OSAS?

    I think the Bible shows that Judas was a sincere Repenter...his remorse and sorrow for his sins were so sincere that he even returned his ill- gotten silver to the ones that gave it to him....his sorrow and guilt were so sincere and extreme, he could not stand it, and he had to kill himself...in...

    new version of OSAS?

    As I said......”repentance” is mentioned throughout the Bible and none of these verses meet my challenge....they all say “ repent” —- they did NOT say “ repent from “ SINS”...... In all verses pertaining to Salvation , the Word that the translators used for “ repentance” was “ metanoia”——...

    I have heard it said that Jesus never really preached “ A Message”——-Jesus Preached “ HIMSELF!” .....I alway thought that made sense....

    new version of OSAS?

    I think the Saved will be revealed in future times to be what they truly are—— GIFTS ! Jesus presents His Saved Believers as Gifts to God .....what does God do with these ” Gifts?” ......It turns out that God is a bit of a “ show-off” .....he will take you and I and all of the other...

    new version of OSAS?

    Nope...the problem is how we differ on the meaning of “ Repentance ” ....I have said forever that Repentance is MANDANTORY for Salvation......and if anybody can find a verse ANYWhERE in the KJV that says “ One must Repent “OF SINS” in order to be Saved “ —- I am right there with them...

    new version of OSAS?

    Nobody goes to Heaven unless their sins are forgiven .....I think everybody agrees on that ...”without Faith, it is impossible to please God.....” Sins are paid for —- some “ cash in” on that fact and find Forgiveness and others don’t.....There is only “ONE WAY” to “ cash in” to what Jesus...

    new version of OSAS?

    Nope.....you got your “ take” and I have mine......you are “CERTAIN” that you are right—- so am I .... we can only continue to do what we have always done — present our best cases using Scriptures, and let individuals make up their own minds..... Of course, The Smart People Will Side with me...

    new version of OSAS?

    All of these things are so closely related and inter- woven , it’s hard to be precise when trying to break things apart and decide what actually is responsible for what.....the word “ Repent” is a word with three different meanings just on it’s own....it can mean “ sorrow for sins” , which...

    As good, if not better, than other explanations that I have seen for explaining the controversial verses of James.....

    I disagree...I don’t doubt your sincerity in this matter so I do thank you for that....

    new version of OSAS?

    I notice it does not say “ repentance from sin” ....that won’t save anybody anyway.... Perhaps the “ repentance” spoken of means “ Turning to God”—- that will Save anybody that does it...... “ Turn to me and I will turn to you”.... That is a Promise Of God... There is no Promise Of God...

    Why Is Homosexuality So Rampant in Catholic Priesthood?

    One could fill a warehouse with all the things the Catholics get wrong.....the good news is that many people are getting Saved “ despite” the Catholic Church.....I know many people who have escaped the clutches of Romanism......each case us a miracle .....the Catholics have a saying which...

    new version of OSAS?

    Of course David was repentant , but that was not why he was forgiven.....Judas was the “ king” of repenters —-so sorry for his Sin that he even returned the money back to the Pharisees—- how did that “ repentance” work out for him? David and Judas both Sinned.....David turned to God with...

    new version of OSAS?

    David is in Heaven today for one reason—-he had Faith. Perhaps the only man with more despicable deeds than David was Lot ( the guy that had sex with his own daughters) Lot died ....passed out drunk in a cave....and there is no record anywhere that he Repented Of Anything.....I guess it’s hard...
