What a wise post. I wish the immature here could see that you are speaking with much more wisdom than they can take in. Bless you sister...for your patience, kindness, and will, in right doing before the Lord and toward the truth. :)

Boy, a lot of religious egos got bruised on this thread. That means the truth is being preached and taught. Are we to cater, to stroke, to allow ourselves to be bullied by ....religious egos? No. We are to resist the flesh, the devil, and the worldly pull. If believers are THAT immature to...

Yes...a very great underestimation of who God is.

Actually that is imputed (not imparted). Imparted sounds too real. The word imputed sounds better if you mean make-believe. And the true imputation is according to our own righteousness...not God's. God would never impute His righteousness to someone..as if God would say..there goes somebody...

I've actually put on the pounds in middle age. But thanks for the encouragement. :)

I know you think you are as righteous as God in your sins ...because you say so. To me...and the bible...it is lunacy. I know what the walk in Zion is. I have walked there for extended periods. And I'm learning to not be a spoiled Gentile...learning what righteousness is in human form...what we...

As long as you see you are of the first statement. Do you not claim the righteousness of God as your own even as you sin. So then that makes you a liar...no? I don't claim any righteousness. I am still learning human righteousness...as it is laid out in scripture...as Paul said...instruction...

You are being rude..not part of the discussion. Take your malcontent elsewhere if you will. You have exposed who you are.

But God, faith and holiness are the same. Why does Heb. 11 still use Old Testament examples of what faith is? So then faith hasn't changed. The Israelites of old couldn't enter into the land because of unbelief. And modern believers don't enter into the higher walk in Zion for the very same...

Yes. The righteous are safe as long as they remain on the road of uprightness, humility, honesty and truth. When people deviate into vain assumptions and presumptions...they fall into the ditch of iniquity...that makes them filthy before God...mixing the flesh in with holiness. The fear of the...

Just received a comment about the Hebrew words representing both iniquity "avon" and humility "anavah"..and how these have the same letters reversed (after the "ayin" which means "to see".) These are polar opposites. Iniquity kills humility and humility kills iniquity) Even in transliteration...

Sounds romantic...kind of...:oops:

He just doesn't like it when his ideas are exposed...and don't "sound" so good.

The nerve of some people. Religion makes people do crazy things. :rolleyes:

Really> Are you saying you need to go to God for the full measure of grace?

I watch what people say and do. I have always exhorted people to go to God...and you have always resisted me...claiming you didn't have to. I know what's in your head. :rolleyes: I have enough discernment to see what is going on. I play a musical instrument. I can help those who are learning...

Technically, monkeys aren't barnyard animals. And crows...not really either. Although, I'm hearing more crowing here... :backtop:

Those who claim that they are not held to the very same standard as the Jews...actually a higher standard...but the same in scale. Paul says that many believers in Jesus will be cut off...just like the Jews in the wilderness. We are to fear. But I see no fear among those who justify themselves...

Your mentors see that as works salvation. More works salvation...according to your mentors. How you have fallen from greasy grace. :hmhehm

You are confusing me with Peter...have you read Peter? Try 2 Pet. 1 He says to add to one's faith. But you are misunderstood what I say. I say we go to God (you HATE that idea of going to God) for the FULL MEASURE of grace. Try to quote me correctly. The crows here don't believe its possible...
