    At least I made Laurina laugh. The rest of you religious ones need to lighten up and not take yourselves so seriously. That kind of smug attitude is bad for the faith of the inner man. It is truly disgusting.

    You are part of the disease. Pontificating and sanctimonious ravings are sickening. Why not start a thread about..say...how often you point to Christ in one day...or something like that. Start a competition to see who can do the most pointing. Maybe one point for every point???

    I don't believe that is accurate. No one grows into Christ. It's impossible. It is a human charade...like the Catholic version...Purgatory. People will go to any lengths to NOT seek the face of God to walk IN Christ. The reason???? People only want the free stuff. They will not sell all to...

    Heart Talks on Holiness

    Don't be discouraged. The outer man is basically Cain...and he is always trying to kill Abel. Allow your own outer man to be attenuated...but have courage in the inner man...and turn to God with that in mind. No need to see the terrible condition of those who have been brainwashed into limiting...

    These translations ...all translations...tend to be limited to the interpretation of the translators. If you want to trust that you understand what is being said...fine. Enjoy the interpretation. But there is some errors therein. 1. "Has perfected forever" is not supported elsewhere...where...

    This is where people deviate from the truth. And also why so few experience resurrection life. No longer having sin as a lifestyle is a good step forward. Our "Old Man" is "crucified" so that the same things that used to please us have changed. But this is not due to us now being holy. We will...

    Where does it say we will have a honeymoon? The wilderness walk is not easy This is an exercise in our own faith. Not more like Jesus so much...Jesus is selfless. Most believers will never get beyond what is beneficial to themselves. As we get older we mellow out.

    Amen...and hi! Yes the works of God are beyond our own capacity. This is where an proper understanding of "scale"...or "depth" we are experiencing God at, is vital to NOT be led astray. There is a wilderness walk in our own faith...whereby we are tested to see if we are ready to take on the...

    What is obvious is that you know nothing whatsoever of God...instead behaving like the Pharisees who condemned Jesus for saying that a "Samaritan" or else a "Publican" could be justified whereas the religious bigots were not. You are in for a big surprise. The gospel is not just about saving...

    God's will never fails. It's our assumptions and presumptions that fail. God will have mercy on WHOMEVER He wills. That is what the religious types hate about God.

    Whose law? Not God's law. Your imaginative restructuring of the gospel comes from Luther. God can see all things. You are the blind one. That fresh snow covering up a dunghill of sins....well that is just a clever ploy invented by a frustrated monk. God is merciful. He is not a lawyer. He knows...

    "My doctrinal opinion is true; you're doctrinal opinion is false." - Got it?

    Emphasis on "if possible". A lot of flesh is in a lot of rebellion against the truth based on self-interest and other more nefarious considerations.

    "My doctrinal opinion is true; you're doctrinal opinion is false." - Got it?

    If you listen to Enoch you will stumble into the same ditch he lives in. He is not speaking the truth. "The earliest extant versions of the New Testament Peshitta date to the 5th century ce and exclude the Second Letter of Peter, the Second and Third Letters of John, the Letter of Jude, and the...

    More empty accusations designed to "cover-up" your errors. If all your sins are covered up, how come we can still see them? Is that why you post the drivel that you do? You believe its already all forgiven?

    Heart Talks on Holiness

    You believe that you are now alive because the penalty of sin has been removed? You are now alive to sin away without any thought that the wages of sin is death? Were you already that deceived with this or is this a progressive thing like your sanctification theory??

    This is New Age spirituality fluff you are trying to put across here. The make-believe portion of your beliefs. There is no such distinction. You have no support whatsoever apart from your imagination. That is both a literal and spiritual truth for you. This is only a half-truth. No one can...

    No Jim. Being born again is by the will of the Father. No one comes to Christ unless the Father draws him. This is not necessarily concerning being born again. That is a very presumptuous claim to think that only the born again choose to follow Christ...or obey His teachings. You are only...

    Not many here will see this error of yours...but Jesus doesn't take away the wages of sin in order to grant eternal life to people. Aircraft do not cancel gravity. They overcome gravity by the law of flight. When you enter INTO an aircraft you partake of the law of flight so that gravity...

    I realize there must be liars always present...but why are you so eager to volunteer? You don't understand spiritual things...so you are as misguided in judging me as the Pharisees were in judging the early disciples. There is very little of what is spiritual in Christ on the forum. I am...
