Another one with limited bible reading experience. Weaning is scriptural. Read Ps. 131. Much of what religious people claim from the NT is actually just at an OT level of walk. No different than the Jews who also walk in their own strength. Ask any Jew is they have seen any Christian walk in a...

Why do you steal away meanings of words? Weaning is a gradual process. Crucifixion is an event. By trying to claim you are being gradually crucified (actually weaned) you are denying the work of God that takes place when we present ourselves as a living sacrifice. What you do...your technique...

Walking in your own strength and then calling that walking in the Spirit is denying His glory...not stealing it. little example? You are out of your league here. There is no partial crucifixion...there is no little walking in the Spirit. You simply have overestimated where you are walking...

Maybe you will be trying to live acceptable before God after you die...but some us aim to do that while we are still alive. I think your lack of understanding about being present in the heavenly walk and only expecting to abide in Christ in heaven after you die explains your conduct here.

You are comparing self with self here. No one is crucified one cell at a time. Purity is an instant gift of grace through faith. Don't confuse being weaned of the flesh...a gradual thing...with being crucified by heavenly power. We are weaned FROM something....not TO something.

A light to OUR path. This is the way of righteousness...to follow the Spirit in our own strength. Then there is the New Covenant that is to walk IN Him. In Him is no sin.

Paul is informing us to what is now accessible to us by faith. By faith I don't mean name it and claim as many do here. No, it means we go to God for HIS grace...not assume we already have it or claimed to be justified for reading the bible. If we trust in Christ we will be saved. But that...

To you that would be the gospel of "their" salvation since Paul is talking about salvation to the inner man not the uncrucified outer man that I was referring to, and that you responded with (and you know that to be true). I hope you (the carnal man) are not in agreement with the scriptures...

Jesus said...seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. How do you know you have found the kingdom?

I said NOT condemned with the world. Go back and read how you get things EXACTLY backwards. 1 Corinthians 11:32. “But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.” To know the Father and Jesus Christ whom He has sent. The gospel is not...

A saved person is no longer condemned with the world...but now is slated to have a private judgment before Christ personally. All who believe in Jesus will inherit eternal life. But to what end? The religious hypocrites among God's people are not thrown into the lake of fire. No, they are...

Paul was not a philosopher. You have to realize that Paul did not give up his religion for a mere philosophy. You are missing the scale to a great extent. The parables are allegorical....but what Paul is speaking about is a heavenly power that translates mere humans into the very presence and...

Yes....we are enslaved, entombed within the outer man until we are crucified to be liberated into resurrection life in the inner man. Now many here will make that a common thing...claiming to "have it all" already and reducing the high calling to a human effort of slow "improvement" over many...

If you do well, shall you not be accepted? and if you do not well, sin lies at the door. And unto you shall be his desire (the outer man), and you shall rule over him.

soph·ist·ry the use of fallacious arguments, especially with the intention of deceiving. "trying to argue that I had benefited in any way from the disaster was pure sophistry" a fallacious argument. plural noun: sophistries

Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. 2 Corinthians 4:16 - For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. Eph. 1:18 “The eyes of your...

You are not Jesus. Great grace does not cause stomach ailments. You are conflating things to avoid obvious truth about how the bible is written. He did better than that. He stood in the faith OF Christ never wavering. Ding miraculous things and speaking with God's own mouth. For all your...

That's not true faith. That's you wanting to save your life. Maybe hope??? But definitely not faith. That is still in the realm of belief...UNLESS...God fills you with His Spirit. This is self-affirming. It's better to say...I must have had faith because I was taken up into the higher walk...

Were the Israelites in the wilderness non-believers? They witnessed miracles everyday. And yet God charged them with unbelief. They never believed God in the moment. When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. Therefore I was angry with that generation, And said...

You are blind to the distinction between being a non-believer and being in unbelief. The latter you exemplify.
