    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Do you believe Scripture or the Reformation teachers that teach 'sin boldly for your past, present and future sin will be covered'? 1 John 5:18 We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.

    Was Jesus/Yeshua born with a Sin Nature?

    Ds, yes, and if we are born again, we are the same. 1 John 5:18 We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.

    The blood of bulls and goats "covered" their sins, leaving them still there. Jesus blood does far more. It takes it away at its source - the sin nature. 4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins.

    My mediator is inside of me. 1 John 3:24. Thank you for not mocking me to my face, but instead behind my back. I appreciate it. We can still have a civil conversation, and my words to you, you will remember - possibly when it is too late. Read Revelation 3:1-6. This is the church of Sardis (the...

    His intention is for us to be holy as He is holy. 1 Peter 1:16 No practicing sinner will be in heaven. Revelation 22:11

    What could be more profound?

    Of course. Actually 4 times. But it was only after I was filled with the Spirit and could hear God's voice did I obey the last command when He told be to now be baptized. I guess he didn't accept the first three times. BTW, if you do follow God's Word and start believing His power in you, you...

    We all know the Ten Commandments, so if I were to steal something, that would be willful. It couldn't be an accident. If someone gave me stolen property as a gift and I didn't know about the theft, that would be unintentional. And if I ever did become aware then I would give it back to the owner.

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Acts 2:38 and 1 John 1:9 are the same. 1 John 1:9 is not a vicious cycle of sin/repent; sin/repent ad infinitum. It is to receive the Holy Spirit just like Acts 2:38. And yes, repentance is key.

    Willfully? 1977. That was the year I was filled with the Spirit. However Philippians 3:16 shows us that those who are born again live up to the knowledge they have. I can look back and see things I did that I wouldn't do now, but at the time I did at least live up to the knowledge I had...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    All it takes is believing what the Word of God says and keeping yourself walking in the Spirit. Read 1 John 3. It is the life of a born again Christian. Taking a break... Make sure to read Romans 8:1-9 2 Peter 1:2-11 1 John 3. Then John 15:7 will always happen for you. 100% of my prayers are...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    When we become born again our life makes a complete turn around supernaturally. And instead of thoughts about God that are on the back burner, now they are all you think about. It is like falling in love. He is never out of my thoughts and I can clearly hear His voice. And, yes, all desire to...

    What does these verses mean if they were written to Titus?

    It shows us that God, Himself, became man and Savior, and died for us to crucify the old sin nature we inherited from Satan through Adam, and has empowered us to live godly lives by not only His power but His example.

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Yes, that is what happens when the power of God who created the whole universe comes into you. And yes, all that Paul wrote about those who were still living under the law and the struggle he knew from experience that they were wrestling with he claimed he was now free of in Romans 8:2 because...

    Truther all of this is WHEN they were IN THE FLESH. Not when they were IN THE SPIRIT. Read verse 5 again. That is us. After that is what it was like when we were in the flesh. We were wretched. But now we are free.

    The Divine Exchange

    Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I told you to start reading at verse 5 of Romans 7. You didn't so therefore are staying confused. Start over the right way this time. A born again Christian is no longer in the "flesh." Paul uses flesh as meaning carnality which is the sin nature. Chapter 7 is the conclusion of an 8 chapter...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    You quoted 1 John 1:8 which is someone who obeys the laws but has never repented of their hidden sins such as coveting. Everyone without Christ still has their sin nature. The next verse is how to have the Holy Spirit of Christ who takes away all unrighteousness, even that at our core, our sin...

    The Divine Exchange

    We must have different versions of the Bible! LOL And what verse is that anyway? My Bible has Paul saying we are dead to sin, and we are not in the flesh but in the Spirit if the Spirit of God indwells us. Romans 6:6-7; Romans 8:9. That's the divine power of grace. That's what I have...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    The Holy Spirit qualifies you with power to no longer commit sins of willful lawlessness. But it is not a remission of willful sins you commit in the future. Only our past sins were forgiven, 2 Peter 1:9, and then our old man, the sin nature, was taken away Romans 6:6-7 and 1 John 3:5. After our...
