    A Spirit of Unbelief

    Or so it seems. Death is a termination of a kind of life...not just a bare survival or ALMOST dead. This reminds me of the Princess Bride movie where the protagonist isn't dead just mostly dead...or nearly dead. He revives and continues as before. Always learning but never coming to the...

    Moving beyond Romans 6 into the higher calling of Christ.

    Amen. God is trying to win us over into a deep spiritual intimacy. But most just want to justify themselves for believing that Jesus came to do good. What good? They don't know. Salvation is what their self-interest tells them...even begs them to have. They just trust that by affirming Christ...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    Why do you not see that worshiping the "Christ in you" can so easily become self-worship? Is it Christ or is it the Christ in YOU that you care so much about? I don't think you care about the things of Christ for even a second. You are only interested in what benefits the YOU. Who is able to NOT...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    I hope that is so. But why do you judge others outside the Body? Where do you get that kind of motivation? You have to look at what the grace is doing to you in your own self-esteem. The ones who say..Lord, Lord...did many mighty works in Jesus name...but they forgot humility. They were not...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    Is the truth what upholds you in your present condition, or what takes away from your confidence in your own self-esteem?

    Three Christian Gospels Today

    Trusting that Jesus will receive you just like the Pharisees trusted that Moses would receive them. What part of you is trusting? Isn't that the part that needs to be crucified with Christ? The part of you that wants to be saved.... He who wishes to save his life will lose it. We have to...

    Esteeming yourself higher than you should

    The flesh will always be at odds with the Spirit. Are we truly aware how the fleshly mind trips us up? So much modern teaching SOUNDS like the truth....whereas it is just building up the wrong part of us...the part of us that is meant to be broken. Of particular interest is the idea that God...

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    Why? The deadness of the letter rather than the life of the Spirit.

    Born again : = Not under the LAW

    Actually the term "rapture" (harpazo) signifies being translated into the higher walk right now...by the Spirit. Do a bible study. Men are pressing into the kingdom and the diligent take it by "rapture." (their sacrifice of themselves being accepted by God and they being permitted entry INTO...

    "Christians don't know what they believe." - until they are brainwashed

    That's how religious propaganda gets promoted. Smooth words of deception...that the carnal religious mind can relish in. And the people loved it that way. They prefer to be fooled than to be challenged by the truth. It has been said that it is easier to deceive a person than get them to...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    It's not my responsibility to continually post all the scriptures you are ignoring...there are FAR too many to post. You should read the bible yourself...not just read a propagandistic verse-a-day almanac that makes you feel good in your flesh. You have to consider ALL the words of the torah and...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    Your foundation is in you....not Christ, when you rely on your past experience. You rely on the Christ in YOU...not Christ. God never does the same thing twice. So you are resting on a past event. To your religious mind moving forward looks to you like you are giving up on Christ...so then out...

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    I said "many will try entering into holiness but will be unable" And that's beside the many who don't even try. Jesus said that many will try to enter into Him through the narrow gate...and be unable. Many modern believers are such by going in by another way. Many false teachers have...

    If everyone agreed, there wouldn't be much point to a forum - Agree, or disagree? - LOL

    I gave up on my human beliefs. I allowed the Spirit to teach me over time and a lot of suffering....and getting things exactly wrong.

    If everyone agreed, there wouldn't be much point to a forum - Agree, or disagree? - LOL

    I think denominationalism needs to stop...dividing over various doctrines and practices. It's the tower of Babel. But true Christianity has yet to be tried with any seriousness. People quibble over the best way to avoid the truth while still calling oneself a Christian. There are many creative...

    What is : imputed Righteousness

    God imputes righteousness on those who display a righteous disposition...whether that be by their actions or their faith in Him. Very simple. What imputed righteousness is NOT is having the righteousness of God attributed to someone because of certain beliefs. A religious belief can make...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    See how they slander using the flesh of others to support their own flesh. You know a tree by its fruit. I am slandered by unrighteous people. Righteous people question me directly...not gossip. You could always use private messenger to gossip about me. If that satisfies your urge.

    If everyone agreed, there wouldn't be much point to a forum - Agree, or disagree? - LOL

    I post this to show how a dishonest reading is undertaken. A dishonest reading will highlight the wrong words and fully ignore the context...to promote error. So instead of the end of the law for righteousness... @Behold has just the "end of the law for all who believe"...thus promoting a...

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    You don't realize that you are in fact denying that very thing with your virtue-signalling lip self-service. I'm amazed that God hides His truth so well, so that the religious ideologues think the truth is offensive. God is ALL -WISE. Praise the Lord. <><

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    I am a fisher of men and women. I do it to try and win those who are dogmatically indoctrinated into the present delusion. Those who justify themselves based on their beliefs. The Pharisees justified themselves by their religious affiliations...just like modern ones do. You have to be...
