What I have discovered, as a baby Christian, sometimes we do something and our conscience doesn't hurt. But the same thing 10 years later cannot be done because our conscience is now aware. The first time around when our heart does not condemn us, God wipes it clean as "unintentional." But 10...

The verses that use "endure to the end" are about the second coming, not the end of his first coming. Matthew 24. Do you remember if someone taught you that? If so who?

Not what I've read, and watched.

You quoted John MacArthur here.

Behold, do you believe there will be those who were practicing willful sins of lawlessness when they died, but prophesied to be following Christ will be still saved and in heaven when He comes.

I'll print out your testimony to read tonight in bed. But how does Luke 1124-26 apply to "Jesus telling those who had not yet been born again of the Spirit to endure until that time, which had not yet come." I don't understand what you mean. "To endure until that time." ??? What does that mean...

In the scripture you are referring to in James 2, he was comparing the Old Covenant Commandments to the Law of Liberty, the New Covenant verse 12. Heart2Soul are you really a fan of John MacArthur?

You are repeating a question/accusation that I already responded to, but did tell me if you keep that command yourself or even if you try? Personally, I think you do, and God will correct your thinking of any wrong doctrines if you stay open to Him as I do. I learn things new all the time.

I didn't say you do. That was a statement about the Church. That is why I teach pastors, they are the ones who have the platform. I only write books they can use. Do you know the ramifications of why Jesus is the end of the Law? How does that affect sin, as the law was to show us our sin. Does...

Praying is communication, and half of that is listening. The point in 2 Peter 2 is that person became entangled in sin, not that he was ever freed again. What do you believe about a person like that?

Are you available to quote the verse you are talking about? Or are you at work. Tell me if you need to do it later. We can't have a good discussion without foundations to stand on.

One thing here we do agree on which shocked me at the time I realized it, was that I had been in Christianity for 30 years attending church, and believing I was saved, but I wasn't. It wasn't until I was filled with the Holy Spirit when I was 30 that I became born again. How about you? Do you...

Behold, what do you think the warning of Paul means when He commanded "Do not quench the Spirit." Who can quench the Spirit, other than someone who already has the Holy Spirit, which is a born again Spirit-filled Christian.

Behold, it can't be self, when it was God who gave me a new heart and a new spirit. They are in His control, not my old flesh. Sure we keep ourselves, but that is in obedience to my Master and written. 1 John 5:18. My new self-will wants to obey, because I dwell on God all day which turns into...

I agree that Peter was talking about salvation, but not as an end result. That person was as "saved" as you are right now, but got entangled in sin again. We are warned against throwing away their salvation, because they will be thrown away themselves. John 15:6 If anyone does not remain in Me...

I was talking about your words "swept clean." As I recall, that wasn't in Peter's writings, but one of the gospels wasn't it? Matthew 12: 43 “Now when the unclean spirit comes out of a person, it passes through waterless places seeking rest, and does not find it. 44 Then it says, ‘I will...

JB, I want to thank you for this encouragement. You really blessed me. My heart is still singing!

"Swept clean"? That is talking about casting out a demon, but if those demons come back and find the Spirit is not there keeping them out, they will bring back 7 more powerful than the first. It is not about a born again Christian being demon possessed, an impossibility. The demon possessed can...

When you meet them, treat them with respect, but talk to them. They love to talk. See what you have in common and start there. Then teach them. That is what I've done. They haven't been around for a while. I may have been black-listed. Some Christians hate them so much they slam the door in...

If they had not attained it then they are still good for repentance in the future. But not the guy Peter was talking about.
