No, just the opposite. The date when I received the revelation from God.

Well that is good to know. I know of another member here who talks like a Seventh-day Adventist, but is not. LOL You do talk like a JW. And I talk like a Word of Faith Pentecostal, but am not. Basically, I listen to God's voice, and believe what He tells me, and He has gifted me with many of the...

Which I already said it is not a proof text for the Trinity. "Denying" Jesus has nothing to do with believing He is God or not. JW's do not deny Jesus. You still believe that only through Jesus can you be saved. He is your Savior. He is the Son of God. Oneness Pentecostals is the other group...

I see it plainly written in Paul's book to the Romans and have quoted from it, so cannot understand your lack of understanding of Paul's writings. Peter did say that there were some things that Paul wrote that were hard to understand by some, and I guess that is true for you. That is basically...

Wikipedia quotes church father beliefs. But I haven't found many of the later church fathers to agree with scripture. And it seems to me that many of their followers are not Berean enough to see if what their favorite church father teaches is what the apostles taught, rather than only sounds...

Thanks for being open with your thoughts and opinions. It appears you are not easily swayed by what a denomination teaches over what the Bible actually says. That error is what I've seen a lot on these forums, and I'm sure you will notice it too. But my question for you is what if Athenasius is...

What I objected to specifically was "as if." That to me is what is said by those who believe in just a covering, like the OT sacrifices, which you did mention. I agree. Correct: Old Testament, specifically before the law as to Abraham, and after the law as to David, Romans 4 and Romans 5...

I edited my post, please go back and read the edit.

Barnabas is also called an apostle in the New Testament, but as far as NT referring to anyone else an apostle, Paul and Barnabas were the last. Church Fathers after the death of John made many mistakes. Edit: Jesus is the one who appoints offices in the Church. He can speak to us today from the...

You sound like you believe after being born again we still retain the sin nature of Adam. We don't. That is why you don't understand the difference between the OT imputed, and Jesus' real righteousness. The nature that Jesus gives us is real, not the old man of Adam's glossed over with Jesus'...

That is correct. The problem about "imputed" is that it further promotes the misinterpretation of God's grace. It is not unmerited favor; God's grace is the divine power of God given to us to completely change our nature to the divine nature of Christ. 2 Peter 1:2-4. It is not Christ's...

No, I'm talking about the many congregations inside a denomination. They are all taught the same thing according to the denomination.

But you first have to HEAR the gospel and Jesus wasn't preaching from the cross, so the thief had to have believed before. Read it again, but compare the two passages. The latter shows the specifics of only one of the robbers. Matthew 27: 41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the...

Where is the verse you put in bold, or is this the gospel of Enoch?

Yes, death came upon the whole world through Adam's one willful sin. When we are born again (our nature called the old man is crucified Romans 6:6-7), and our new nature is raised by Christ's resurrection power, our inside nature is in the Spirit and becomes immortal taking on eternal LIFE...

Those two statements seem to contradict each other. The first seems to mean the doctrine of our present and future sins are not seen by the Father. The second seems to mean that like Christ the new nature He gives us does not sin. Imputed is only OT. The New Covenant is not imputed, but real...

Where does it say the thief on the cross was NOT baptized. It doesn't mention it at all to say one way or the other. Whether or not he was likely to have been baptized or not should be determined by what he said. I vote that he was. 42 Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come...

To be holy. 1 Peter 1: 15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

What is God's plan for us? Since Adam's sin, God's plan is to separate the sheep from the goats and provide the power to do so. Revelation 22:11.

"Imputed" implies a covering, instead of actually being righteous ourselves through the new nature Jesus creates in us. That is what is commonly taught in the Church, but is not a New Covenant doctrine from Jesus or the apostles. Before Christ's crucifixion and resurrection, the OT saints were...
