    Like any other race that we have been in.....at the end. We are not running against each other, but against ourself. 'I believe' that the Prize of the High Calling is God Himself . 'Here I Am folks ...run into Me, I am the Place, I am the Prize, I am your Mansion , your Treasure ... He told...

    Please explain this.

    What a wonderfully clear way of saying it! :) I am never very good with words. Sadly some are so obsessed with the bible , they believe even that every chapter, every colon, semicolon, full stop and comma is divinely inspired. ( as we know there were none in the original. ) Many verses...

    Putting on of the new self

    I hope you could get some sleep. The other night it was 4am for me, before I could shut my eyes. These bodies do strange things in our old age , they don't do as we want theme to do. :) As for positional truth I don't think I can explain it any better. I just know that Romans 7 Paul is...

    When is a christian NOT a Christian?

    I believe , as they are both Catholic's, they are referring to the Catholic church. i.e. < "faith of your fathers and mothers and the community "> Now you will understand. :)

    Oh ouch! I cannot do that ... Agree Truth does not change, Jesus Christ = The Way, The Truth, and The Life ....changes not. Man if fallible ...he will always fail us. If I need confirmation on what I have heard a man preach...I get on my face before the Lord and ask HIM for confirmation...

    Amen , agree 100% then maybe I misunderstood what you were saying ... ( for @marks too) BTW , Dave said, in ref to "Positional truth " being a cope out. He said ... consider that the overcoming that the children of Israel didn't do was to believe God. They died in the wilderness because...

    Hey John. I'm with you on the hell thing...so we know where we each stands on that issue. But it seems that you, like our friend @marks believes is the "one big glob" in heaven with everyone all the same . The faithful missionary that gave his spiritual life and literal life for the...

    And therein is the rub.... Quote :- "The Bible itself must be the one to say whether something is a symbol, and what that symbol means." Sounds good BUT, The trouble with that is .. not with the Bible at all ..but with everyone of us who "interprets " , and we each say 'with authority', -...

    That I might attain

    I do. It doesn't mean that they are not saved...just that they didn't 'make the grade' As Paul said " Make your calling and Election sure. " Our salvation is secure, our calling and inheritance isn't..."the fire will try every mans works of what sort they are..." We can but trust and...

    Hey there again. :) I don't believe that I saw you post in the thread I started ( on behalf of someone else.) I did tag you in my post...but I don't remember you joining in.??? Re you above statements quoted ... ( BTW I too, like you, very rarely quote a whole post , but <snip?|> what I...

    Please explain this.

    I myself am a dyed in the wool KJV -er. It is still a translation. A very anointed one...( and the best) but nevertheless it is still a translation. Some of the meanings of the words don't mean today what they meant back then. None of them are 'pure' ...but God is well able to get His...

    POSTINGS???

    @Angelina and @lforrest Still no news about WHEN the "Postings" history will be fixed. I was trying to find an amazing testimony for someone else here...it's not in the Testimony section. So what board it was posted on I have no idea. This has gone on for weeks now...and VERY annoying...

    Please explain this.

    Oh come on...did nobody tell you that the original was not written in English. MUCH of the wording has been changed.... The bible we hold in our hand contains the full essence of God's heart to us. Don't fret, even thought much was probably lost in translation, and by the biases of those...

    Please explain this.

    Ummm isn't that what Grailhunter just said in his post? o_O And:- he also said- and you said :- He tagged who he was saying it to at the top of his post. 4 people. But it does apply to all believers . BTW I thought you were a OSAS ...have you changed horses? I think that because you have...

    sonship

    Hi Mark...Soulman's opening post here is said much better and clearer than I was 'trying' to say to you in a post back in that other thread just now. At some point through faithfulness, we move from a faithful servant to a mature son. ( not just one happy glob of believers ) Blessings..H

    What are man-made sins?

    Oh I was a free spirit alright, because I did not obey all I was told that I 'should not be doing" ...hence my bikini story!!! :D Now when GOD speaks to modify, to do or not do something...THAT is a different story. :) But mans rules and regulations...phuttt

    So, what was the disciples understanding when they asked Jesus.." Can we sit at your right hand and your left in the kingdom." And Jesus answered , "It is not mine to give, but my father in heaven. " James and John knew that the prize of the high calling of God , was all to do will...
