    To be sure, but what of Calvary? "And I, if I be lifted up..." .

    Can SCOTUS overturn gay marriage next?

    It doesn't mean a thing. The electoral college isn't going anywhere, either. It's what makes us a democratic republic. Big money will not allow it. I'm thoroughly apolitical. I just thought I'd chime in. I'll slip into a coma if I hang around here for long. I render unto Caesar that which is...

    The Gospel And The Inner And Outer Man

    I see it as a process. I didn't have an epiphany in RD's thread or anything like that. But as you say, Christ is always working, nevertheless. It's a lot like the Hebrew Sanctuary service. The sinner places his hands on the head of the innocent sacrifice and confesses his sins. After that...

    Can SCOTUS overturn gay marriage next?

    So is any kind of intimacy between man and woman that doesn't cause conception (sodomy). UCMJ .

    Can SCOTUS overturn gay marriage next?

    You'd better get your head out of the sand, partner. The alt-right is not going away. And they, along with the dems, will have us put in jail for not going to church before you know what hit you. .

    The Gospel And The Inner And Outer Man

    Do you emphasize the resurrection for any reason? Just curious. .

    The Gospel And The Inner And Outer Man

    The more I read this, the more I get it. I tend to downplay the fact that conviction is alive and focus on the resistance my flesh puts up. Like, right there, it was hard for me to say "my flesh" rather than just "me." I want to take uber-credit for any wrong thought or deed I have or do...

    The Gospel And The Inner And Outer Man

    Well, you know I appreciate your encouragement and support, but I ought to esteem others better than myself—not just those with whom I agree. I think I should have backed away long ago. And there's always 1 Thessalonians 5:15. I know what RD is about here. I have seen people who have been here a...

    The Sabbath was a Carnal Commandment, Now it is False Law

    I think it might be worse here in America. We're quite off our trolleys, you know. :D

    The Gospel And The Inner And Outer Man

    I really get this. Yet at the same time. I know that perfect love casts out all fear, so why don't I just lay hold on that Love and stop being afraid. Getting real here. I feel this, too. But, for me, as I'm sure you will agree, the dying has to go from the metaphorical illustration to, through...

    I'm Hungry Right Now, What are you munching On?

    Brown rice, broccoli, tomatoes, onions, black beans, tiny chilied brown lentils, and nutritional yeast for B-complex and cheesy flavor!

    The Gospel And The Inner And Outer Man

    Nuts and bolts here. What is it? Why aren't we getting it? Why do we argue and insult and condemn, when we know that's not what we're supposed to be doing? What are we missing? I have a strict policy against calling into question others' standing with God into question. But I know there are...

    The Sabbath was a Carnal Commandment, Now it is False Law

    I kinda thought I was. I think it's called for at times, but I don't think my ability to judge that is very well-developed. And I think I tend to escalate aggressiveness too readily. It all stems from my childhood, the early part of which was fraught with being bullied.

    Carnal Hypocrisy of Sabbath Commanders

    I've been told by hundreds of people that the 4th commandment has either been changed or cancelled. But very, very few of them exhibit the potential for actual persecution. You're special in that regard. It really is rather frightening to witness what's going on here. It reminds me distinctly of...

    The Sabbath was a Carnal Commandment, Now it is False Law

    I don't know about you, Sis. I thought it was me you were referring to as being nasty. Maybe you were, anyway. Anyway, I'm rejoicing right back atcha! One thing I don't understand: To my understanding, the natural man is totally depraved. Were it not for the restraining power of the Spirit of...
