I'm correcting him....his outer man. I'm always hopeful that carnal believers will humble themselves to see beyond the limits of their own egos...into an eternal realm of possibilities found in Christ. There is a difference between engaging a doctrine or position....and attacking the person...

Amen! Remaining humble, honest, and faithful will always be a challenge and one made harder when accusers come to bait believers into reacting in the same way back to them...in the flesh. Because this is a public forum...I have to respond to the false advertizing...the fake news, as it were...

The ego trusts in the carnal mind of the outer man. If ear tickling preachers present an ideological scheme that caters to that kind of mind...using the bible to back it up through misinterpretation....then the very arrogance and certainty that this engenders leads people to think they can use...

That other thread was you doing your normal accusations against the brethren. You are precisely what you accuse me of. But you can't see past that mountainous ego of yours. Mr. E... as you will be.

I see people qualifying or disqualifying themselves by their attitude when truth is being proclaimed. As we walk...if we remain faithful, we will see people falling on our right side and left side. Some will stop being humble, they will start to accuse, they will attack...basically disqualifying...

It's been peaceful here for a while before disruptions and disrupters come to curtail our freedom in Christ. If you read through the thread you will see how other spirits come to take away the truth. Spirits of accusation, manipulation, disruption and all manner of ill-intent. It's normal that...

LOL. How typical. I am responding to a carnal religious attack made on a peaceful and edifying thread. It's obvious you are trying to goad me...to accuse me...that's your shtick. Your ego demands such things. But did you know who actually controls that ego of yours? You came to my thread...

The truth is not understood by those who have been indoctrinated against it...immunized from hearing unto salvation. I am reposting this from another thread I started to show why the religious ones hate my words. They HATE that God is merciful and judges BOTH with kindness AND severity. Those...

You have a false religion based on human beliefs...just like any other religion. It just so happens that your claim about Jesus is true...but where is your part in it? Merely pointing at? Judas did the same thing. Jesus died for the sins of the whole world, ESPECIALLY (but not exclusively)...

People have a hard time understanding Paul since he uses the word "law" to mean like at least three different things. The law of Moses : Holiness laws based on ceremonial purity. (now superseded through Christ) The law of God : the ten commandments (Ours to fulfill through Christ in...

If that is possible, we don't see it very much. Do you have any ideas on this? Any examples? The other way round could fill volumes. Peter never says anything about misunderstanding Jesus...either you understand Him or you don't. But Paul on the other hand had such a specific idea about what he...

Yes. The law of righteousness (for humans) mean repenting from evil and doing right. This level of righteousness is about INHERITING life...through the mercy of God. This is for the meek, the lowly, the poor, the honest, the merciful. NO need for power from heaven for that level. We ALL have the...

Paul was speaking against the law of Moses for Gentiles. A new and living way meant that there was no going back to a way that had no power. Paul was only concerned with the nations coming into a higher walk in Christ...that fulfills the law of God by the power of the resurrected Christ.

No. Only if I slip off the road do I need the guardrails. Only if I "fall from grace" do I need the law to remind me of my true condition and what God expects. Think of the road as the path of holiness or else the path of righteousness...depending on the level of our walk. The law provides a...

Here Paul is looking at the law as a means to righteousness. People want to know how to be righteous and how they can know if they are saved or not. Paul is concerned with the higher form of righteousness. He doesn't take much time to avow human righteousness...that's not his ministry. His...

Look at the law as a guard rail around tight corners on a road. If you keep to the road, you, personally no longer need the guardrails. The guardrails are there for those who don't keep to the road...but they are still needed. To say that the guardrails are no longer required in a general...

You have answered your own question. Is Jesus not the Lord? Is He not the same yesterday, today and always? Who will be judging you? Paul? Or Jesus? The words of Jesus remain the pillar of our faith. Paul was an usher into the the bigger kingdom picture for all nations. But misunderstanding...

We could do the same thing today with the way Paul is being interpreted to say.

Or else the word made flesh is a name... Youd Hey Vav Heh...or "Behold a hand, behold a nail" Or as the Jews say..."Hashem" (the name) Before Abraham was...He is.

Many would. Most won't come right out and say things like...Jesus was only speaking to Jews...or things like that....that what Jesus said was not meant for us today. Things like that...on this very forum. If we were to go by influence, then far more believers ignore the sayings of Jesus for...
