    Dogmatic Christianity

    Is it hate speech to warn people of eternal consequences? Is it love? It's funny that people will rationalize warning unbelievers outside the church....even seeing this as laudatory. But try warning the unbelievers within the church and most will get into a snit. It's funny how history continues...

    Dogmatic Christianity

    You certainly don't know who I follow. As you see so you are.

    Dogmatic Christianity

    LOL. I indeed have a different Spirit than the modern religious institutions. I certainly hope so! I have "another Spirit." It pleases God that the few are rejected by the many. So continue to judge from yourself. It must be so. I'm happy to be marginalized. :) That proves I'm spot on. I have...

    Dogmatic Christianity

    Even unbelievers in the world expect spiritual people to be spiritual. Not so the unbelievers in the churches. The carnal man has been mollycoddled by false teachers for so long now, that sound doctrine is no longer tolerated by almost anyone. People like yourself just want affirmation....for...

    Dogmatic Christianity

    James was concerned with maintaining righteousness. Loving one's neighbour as oneself. Paul was concerned with holiness. Maintaining the teachings of Jesus and the kingdom realm. Both of these standards must be maintained. Hence, the purpose of the video. I stated that a conservative...

    Dogmatic Christianity

    Spoken as someone who is fully non-conversant in spiritual things. :oops: God is Spirit. Those who walk as Jesus walked (in the power of the Spirit) are NOT limited to earthly powers. There are spiritual faculties with which to interact with God in an intimate way. The very rarity of these...

    Dogmatic Christianity

    The truth has a depth of its own. There is no bias when the decision has already been made from the outset a system of values that are not arbitrary. It's like sorting out coins. The pennies go in the penny jar. The nickels go in the nickel jar....etc. No one is going to argue over the value of...

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    Why do you always want to compare yourself with those who are not held to the same standard? If you were in an army boot camp and under orders to do something difficult...and always compared yourself to civilians and what they did...I would surmise you want OUT of the army. If you constantly...

    Dogmatic Christianity

    Agreed. And this is a constructive way to look at something we all need to consider. What I see lacking is a proper balance in teaching. Most teachers have a bias....whether conservative or liberal. \as such these are just doing what people do in the power of the flesh...in their own...

    More of the same. At least you're consistent! :)

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    here is the manner of things. I point out the truth. I get attacked for it. Ganged up on by the carnal majority. And then I'm supposed to NOT speak the truth...to not prophesy the truth...but rather to speak the appropriate lies and fairy tales that the carnal ones have grown accustomed to by...

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    Exactly...why attack the messenger. Why the unbelief? Why the emotional reactions that are so obviously carnal in nature?
  14. Episkopos

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    Again...the irony. So many modern type believers justify themselves based on a religious belief that is really just a conflict of interest....the flesh looking for a way to "get saved." Those who seek to save their life will lose it. :rolleyes: The righteous don't think they are...

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    I think some post here while imbibing.

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    You just did the same thing...but you can't see that of course. I am judged for NOT judging those that are outside the church. We ARE called to judge those who are within...especially those who judge others because of a religious bent. But only God can judge people that are not found within the...

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    Why do you believe not? Rather than pointing the finger at others...you are guilty of judging others as if you were God. So then you are under judgment. I am warning you to your own benefit. But your religious outer man wants to be coddled back to sleep. Go to your pew and wait till judgment...

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    I am speaking at the depth they are meant to be understood at by those who actually know the Lord. A surface reading is at the level of the world...not His disciples. For you, depth means complicated. That is because you are out of your depth so that you reduce the words of God to something your...

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    By simple you mean dogmatic...what the masses are able to hear. (I will address this in the next podcast...wait for it) But God can instruct even the simple into His ways. Dumbing down the ways of God for the sake of the simple ones has succeeded in filling the pews...but not the kingdom of God...

    What is New Testament Holiness?

    There will always be those who feel threatened by the truth that exposes them and these as a result will resist the truth. We see that with every thread that I start, There is no wisdom against the wisdom of God. So then many will hurl all manner of abuse my way...but without any...
