    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    If you were honest you would admit it...but since your entire premise is based on a lie...you can use Jesus the way you want, say great lies concerning Him...then wipe your mouth and say...I have done nothing wrong.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Another ugly and shameful post from you. So you say @Behold is your Lord???? It is the false modern religionists who use Jesus in this way. You are looking for a permanent sacrifice for your sins rather than go to God and enter INTO Christ. So then you want only to saved from the penalty for...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Here we see an obsession with an "all inclusive" social gospel. I'll humour the ego behind this...for now. When I hear a statement like that I hear the modern Protestant churches that affirm gay marriage. (It's funny we don't see that in the Catholic church, just Protestant) When I hear "all...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Any hypocrite can sin and then point to Christ. Even the mafia does that. I point to Christ...the real Christ. But I don't use His name in vain as the virtue-signallers do here. I'm more careful. With the serious I am serious. With the silly..I play silly. But nobody seems to have any sense...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    A shepherd must also guard the flock against the ravenous wolves that come among the flock to feed their egos...destroying the faith of the weak. Mark, you are always looking for flesh comfort. But no wolf is allowed among the sheep. Once the wolves are gone...the shepherd can be as gentle as...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    They say that once you smell a dead body...you never forget it. Well, I smell a lot of dead religion here. People championing a religious belief over walking in resurrection life. Utterly ridiculous. It's the world upside down...making darkness light and lies to be truth.

    More self-righteous virtue-signalling. Always drawing attention to yourself . I call you Ego de Crispo.

    Shoo vulture...shoo....

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    This sounds like inclusivism to me. When did you realize you had "tendencies" towards other men? You will be reminded of this... as you wail. You are a judge...but a false one. You will be judged as you have judged. But you will find out that God doesn't respect lip service. Are you saying...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Yes...I fully agree with the "second blessing" and its importance in experiencing the higher walk. I don't know what others who have actually been baptized in the Spirit think along the lines of reformation theology. Being right -hearted doesn't make you right-headed. There is a greater...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    We have different terminology perhaps...since those testimonies usually date back over 100 years or so. But I agree with those who testify to the "second blessing." Although that's not my terminology. In those days...holiness revival days...people would "tarry at the altar" until they received...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Not so. You are not understanding the gospel. Jesus proclaimed the gospel before His death and resurrection..saying "the kingdom of God is at hand" What does that mean? He came to proclaim liberty to the captives. That means that through Christ we will be given access into the eternal kingdom...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Those who are looking to be built up in the religious outer man have not long to search. The false ministers and false prophets abound. There are even telephone ministries that you can call...that will tell you how blessed you are, how much God loves you...God only wants peace for you ...you...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    The mystery of the gospel is still a mystery to you. You hate the word of God...that's why I posted what Jesus said...which you also hate. You have always failed.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    You take promises for those who undertake the higher walk..and steal that away for those who walk in the futility of their own minds. The confidence we are to hold on to is for those who are such from the inner man...not the outer religious man. You are taking...stealing actually... what is...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    That's backwards. If a person does not sin..do they still need to repent? You are not getting both sides of the equation...you have one truth cancelling out the other. That's a scheme invented by Luther...whom you follow. The gift of life in Christ doesn't cancel out the penalty of sin. Do...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    The gospel of the kingdom is prophesied by Isaiah "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    The opposite is true. The gospel is ONLY what I have described. Luther was NOT an author of the bible This is where your confusion comes from. You deny the power of the gospel...the very kind of people that Paul says we are to avoid.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    I agree. This is like peewee or something. I am not qualified in day-care so admittedly I may not be as accomodating as people wish ...to the antics here. Whether you believe it or not has no value whatsoever. The reason why you don't believe there is a higher walk is because you have ever...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    What you seek with your itching ears is easily and readily available in the US among the myriads of ministries that cater to middle-class religious posturers such as yourself. A dime a dozen really. And if I was to conform to the religious masses...how would that help you? I am very different...
