    HERESY?

    When we are born again of His Spirit, our carnal nature is crucified with Christ. Therefore, we no longer have the human nature you are referring to. Romans 8:9. We are not in the carnal nature but in the Spirit, if the Spirit of God dwells within us. And if we do not have the Spirit of Christ...

    "not of works, lest anyone should boast."

    Receiving the divine nature of Jesus is the only way your works of righteousness are His, and not your own.

    "not of works, lest anyone should boast."

    Yes, all have, especially in the Old Testament. Don't you know that is the reason Jesus came in the first place? Jesus is the only one who can remove the sin nature and nail it to His cross and give you His nature. Don't you know there is a difference between a person before Christ with the...

    "not of works, lest anyone should boast."

    I was going to say what the "modern church" says, but the reality is that the modern church kept the unsound doctrines from the dark ages where they originated. It is amazing how many doctrines today are the very opposite of God's Word. That is called being brainwashed and calling right, wrong...

    "not of works, lest anyone should boast."

    I like that you are open minded. That is the only way the Holy Spirit can get through to us.

    "not of works, lest anyone should boast."

    So did you test yourself? Do you believe the dark ages, or the Word of God? Do you even understand the Word of God, or are you reading it with an unborn again carnal nature?

    "not of works, lest anyone should boast."

    Are you saying that your truth is what I've listed as from the dark ages, and you deny the Word of God I've given?

    "not of works, lest anyone should boast."

    People love to memorize a line of scripture and make a whole false doctrine out of it without reading the surrounding clarifying texts. Ephesians 2: 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10...

    HERESY?

    I've seen that before, but how could it be quoted if it was added later?

    HERESY?

    If you know Who the Word is then yes they did. 1 John 5:7 7 For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. These words weren't added later, but restored. Earlier church fathers than the earliest (surviving) manuscript even...

    HERESY?

    What makes you believe Christians are not present through the GT? Look at Revelation 12:17. 17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. This chapter shows that the...

    HERESY?

    Exodus 2: 6 And when she opened it, she saw the child, and behold, the baby wept. So she had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.” She could tell immediately this was not an Egyptian child. How? I think it was obvious. LOL

    HERESY?

    I'm post trib. I do NOT believe in a secret rapture. It is just not scriptural. We have about a little more than 7 years before Christ returns. But as far as evangelizing to reach more Gentiles, that will end sometime next year. Maybe April. I really don't know how long after the GT that the...

    HERESY?

    I agreed with you up until you said this: What made you think Moses was a Gentile when his brother Aaron was from the Tribe of Levi? And Moses had to have been circumcised because how else would the Egyptians know he was a Jew? No one was called an Israelite until Jacob's name was changed by...

    HERESY?

    Is that what they call Replacement Theology? I don't believe in that. The New Covenant was for the Jews first, and the Gentiles were added at the door of Cornelius. There is one kingdom, and the Jews were only partially blinded, not fully blinded so they could still come into the Church and...

    Perfection

    You said perfection has nothing to do with morals. Where is THAT in Scripture?

    Perfection

    Read #10 slanderer.

    Perfection

    No you aren't. If you don't think God is moral, then yes, you believe God's perfection has nothing to do with morals. But that is hogwash. If you want to twist scripture to your own experience, that is up to you. But the real truth is in His word. Take it or leave it.

    Perfection

    You can't have love to others and NOT be morally excellent. Morals are part of holiness and purity. 1 Peter 1:15-16; 1 John 3:3. I sure hope you didn't buy into the doctrine that morals are "works." But it is true that you can't be holy on your own. A "Christian" is not a Christian unless they...

    Perfection

    Obviously, the answer is no to willful sins of lawlessness - sins unto death. But yes, to trespasses against brethren when I get frustrated, so have committed sins not unto death. But I have learned by the Spirit to quickly forgive those who trespass against me, and try to reconcile. Then the...
