    What does it mean to be born again?

    There is a temptation among the "born-again" crowd to look down on the Jews. Of course, there are Jews that do likewise to the Gentiles. But all this is carnal and impedes an understanding of the bible and its teachings. If we negate the Jews as being God's people under the Old Covenant, we...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    The forum is not diabolic. It is what you make it. To the pure everything is pure, but to the impure everything is impure. To the possessed one everything is diabolic. Consider your spiritual condition. There is freedom and salvation at the cross.

    What does it mean to be born again?

    You're using a post from yesterday to get attention to yourself today. Your ability to discern truth from eror is non-existant. What else you want to convey about yourself today?

    What does it mean to be born again?

    I do. I thank God for the privilege of being hated for speaking as He tells me to speak. I don't want to see people judged. But how will they turn from their ways unless they are warned? And you are also hated... so then you are standing in the truth by trusting the Lord.

    What does it mean to be born again?

    We see modern anti-Semitism created by religious clerics from Christendom in the early centuries AD (and yet they copied so many of their religious ways) ...who wanted to diminish the Jews as God's people. You perhaps saw that same bigotry displayed here in an above post to minimize the lesson...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Backwards. Were the Jews the people of God that were seen by God as unbelieving? Yes or no...You won't be honest to answer this as it destroys your religious pretense. ...and don't deflect with anti-Semitism. Again...those who accuse me of doing the very thing they are doing...obfuscating the...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Your anti-Semitism is equal to your anti-Catholicism. It is on full display here...and is very wrong. I say the people of God...but to you they are merely Jews and nothing to be compared to you. A bigot doesn't know they are a bigot. It's no wonder you can so easily ignore the people of God...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    You're ranting again... Of course that is what you teach...that Jesus is a minister of your sin. You have stated that Jesus is now responsible for your sins (not you having any responsibility) so that you can claim untruthfully to be as righteous as God. Your gospel has no power but to cover up...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Amen! May all who assume and presume to be holy based on a carnal religious reading of the bible be exposed and repent into the way, the truth and the life. :)

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Hypocrites visit my threads all the time...and turn them into a freak show. But my ministry is to try helping deceived brethren and correct them from their error...thus saving their souls from death and covering a multitude of sins. What religion does to people ain't pretty. But if you want to...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Do you realize that the unbelieving mentioned in the Bible are never those who are not in the loop...like people of other religions, ...but always God's people? You need to read Exodus again...and then Hebrews that talks about the people of Israel not entering into the Land because of unbelief...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    It's exactly my own. What you mean is that it has no bearing on Luther's gospel...who totally misunderstood Paul...as Peter said the unlearned and unstable would. So then you champion Luther over Paul and the teachings of Jesus...because they sound good to your religious flesh. But that way is a...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Yes He did Yes, the dead religious works rather than the life-giving works of Christ. I thought you were the Calvinist. I think you are either drunk or high on something. Speaking with religious Jews doesn't make someone a religious Jew. Jesus sat down with sinners and the Pharisees said He...

    Preach the gospel always, and if necessary, use humour. ;)

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Spiritual fruit not religious nuts, remember? Legalists read the bible but have no understanding of God and His ways. "I desire mercy not sacrifice". The Pharisees were just as certain in their judgments as you are right now. They thought how can this obviously false rabbi be championing...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    A dogmatic understanding cannot fathom the ways of God. Trying to filter the wisdom of God as revealed in the bible just makes you a judgmental theorist...which doesn't work out well for you. God will have His way. 1. God will have mercy on whomever He wills. That means He doesn't need mere...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    People will claim to walk in God's resurrection power...even as they sin. So they are making-believe. Such a walk exists and was experienced in the early church. But being rich and spoiled doesn't mean we deserve the privileges of the life to com. Almost all believers walk exclusively in their...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    The kingdom within...is only experienced within by being allowed into the kingdom realm. And in Hebrew the word for within can also mean among. Look it up.... An outer anointing brings out the buried talent within...so that an eternal fruit is produced. maybe too much to go over here.
