    What is New Testament Faith?

    If only you understood properly what you are saying. You are missing the scale of the gospel. You believe that to be a sinner =unrighteousness. That is false and unbiblical. To be a sinner means you are not HOLY (not unrighteous as you claim). The righteous acknowledge their sins. There is...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    Many of these other religionists are far humbler and wiser than religious opportunists who sit in pews. They walk in the common righteousness...the lower walk. But that walk is still higher than what you espouse...so you will naturally accuse me of being the one who degrades the higher...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    God was always merciful and adjusted His expectations according to our weakness. Many here think that Jesus had to die to make God merciful. This is a lie and an affront to God's character. The New Covenant is the power of a resurrection life as from the dead...to fulfill the law as Jesus did...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    More self-righteous posturing. Religious vapourings. Are you standing in front of a mirror as you endlessly justify yourself?

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    How unteachable and unreasonable you are. am like like matador here...a bullfighter. You are full of spears of truth in your body...but you still think you can win your arguments. Even after showing you you are wrong... you will persist...like a blind man and deaf...with slogans like this...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    Poor you. Religion does strange things to the mind...it twists and turns what could have been an honest appraisal into a bid for self-justification. You are not spiritual so you don't understand the NT at all. John describes faith INTO Christ. What is that? NT faith translates a person into...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    More twaddle. You would have the OT be a better covenant based on your dead religion. When religious posturers like yourself see the words "all have sinned" ...their mouths start to water and they see their opportunity to destroy ALL righteousness. But Jesus came to fulfill ALL righteousness...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    Religious twaddle and unbiblical. As tiresome as it is to try relating something true to indoctrinated people...here goes. :rolleyes: “There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    LOL. I never said that the OT standard of faith was obsolete. Most bible readers don't seem to be able to understand how to compare things. On Sesame Street...there was a song called. "One of these things is not like the other". Then came the difficult process of finding something that was...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    You have missed Jesus teaching. He asked us to pick one. You have a bible ... read it. Oh my...more religiosity. :rolleyes: That's obvious...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    Yes. The Jews understood righteousness. It was what they weren't understanding that got in the way. Christendom has thrown out thousands of years of understanding in righteousness to do what? Stray even further from righteousness? Fortunately, the righteous just ignore the foolishness. The...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    There are more signs of spiritual life than you mentioned. That's the problem with man-made religion based on carnal reasoning. The charismatics make "tongues" the bona-fide sign for baptism in the Spirit....because they read about it in the bible. So they get people to fake (an easy fake)...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    How religious...and typical is this response. I'm talking about obeying Christ. Do you know what following Christ is even about? Is it lip service to you? LOL. The opposite is true. The very attitude of a Pharisee. You didn't mention the "good" Samaritan. How deceived was Jesus to use a...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    If no one is righteous...not not one...then it stands to reason that people who are that weak shouldn't be then claiming to be as righteous as God is. Don't you see the discrepancy here? As in...you can ONLY be righteous if you claim to be as righteous as God. That is what many here are...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    If there is a real spiritual life going on...gifts of the Spirit will emerge. They will follow, like signs, those who are spiritual in Christ. Of course these can be faked. The sign of our times is the lack of spiritual life. And a lack of the faith OF Christ. The modern gospel is about...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    Part of my purpose here is to diagnose what is happening to modern Christendom...by way of understanding the false doctrines and what fuels the religious attitudes we see posing as "the righteousness of God" .....of all things. Even the Pharisees only thought they were just plain old righteous...

    What is New Testament Faith?

    It's called "dispensationalism" . And C also is a cessationist....and no doubt in need of an intervention. :rolleyes:

    What is New Testament Faith?

    You are proving that a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing. Most people's idea of a relationship with God is a relationship with a book...the bible. That's as far as it goes for most people. And people will be dishonest in order to perpetuate the indoctrination they have received that...

    The Key to all the Parables of Jesus

    The narrow way in Christ doesn't mean being narrow minded. You are missing the bigger picture...and are remaining blind to your true condition before God. God allows for different colours of skin, ethnicities and even religions. This world is a testing ground for eternity. Just as judging...
