    What does it mean to be born again?

    It's abusing the spirit (crow) they are hiding their carnal selves under. People who don't go to the cross either...give up the Christian life altogether...take on a false spirit that covers their flesh (as per Luther)...or else remains on the narrow path agonizing (aganizomai in Greek) in...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    You demean God, His ways, His sacrifice, and His servants. While you still have a chance to repent the horrible eternity that awaits you...repent.

    What does it mean to be born again?

    If anyone has any wisdom at all here. Who is more likely to be seen as reprobate? The one who testifies of a higher walk and encourages others to seek it...or the ones who attack that one and say he is a devil etc... Think really hard about it. Because if you think this will not be reviewed on...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    I don't know if you read the responses of others here. If you have, then you would be familiar with the crows that circle around me whenever I teach the truth. Do you see yourself among them...as in "all" believers? Are you just one more crow? While I never judge a brother in any permanent...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Do you claim to be walking on the same level as Paul? As Jesus? More like Luther...who was so deluded that he concocted a scheme that wrested the truth from the bible and turned it inside out...justifying the flesh and claiming great swelling things...building sepulchers on high, And judgment...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    That's assuming you were ever broken in the outer man. People here are lifting up the part of themselves that needs to go to the cross...for the first time! So then all this preserving the flesh...and defending the flesh...makes people very unlike Paul. Paul was an actual apostle. And people...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    You mean like even just lusting after another person is sin? Or being angry against a brother is murder?

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Why do you think you have to redefine sin in order to be righteous in God's eyes? Did Jesus die in order to merely redefine sin...or give us the power of His life to overcome as He overcame? As we abide in Him, we walk as He walked....above sin.

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Claiming to be justified by Christ while still living under the power of sin makes a person a transgressor. No different than a Pharisse...worse actually, since no Pharisee would have the gall to claim to be as righteous as God.

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Our faith is in God ...whom we look to in a broken state. He is the one who receives our sacrifice and translates us. Until we are translated the first time we have no idea what pleasing God looks like...nor what His grace and mercy are capable of. God decides whom He will have mercy on. Most...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid. 18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

    What does it mean to be born again?

    An owl among the crows? I agree in large part with what you've said here. You are only seeing righteousness through indoctrinated eyes, however. ALL our claims to righteousness are filthy rags. The truly righteous see themselves as mere sinners. A righteous person doesn't claim to be...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    I think you realize that Jesus was also fully man. He had to learn wisdom and be trained to ignore His flesh. (there is no flesh in heaven) Jesus learned wisdom (human) through experiencing all the difficulties that we go through. I have other videos that I am building on in order. I am...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    Hey Apak. I wasn't going to sully my soul with this thread anymore...now infested with crows...until I noticed your thoughtful post. This is the kind of dialogue I was open to have by going to the trouble of making a video and a thread. :) OK. Glad to you see the connection. It's normal that...

    Jesus Revolution

  16. Episkopos

    That All Of You Agree With One Another In What You Say And That There Be No Divisions Among You,

    We will never unite based on agreeing to the same errors. We need to go to God for a FULL experience of grace and the cross...On THAT ground we will come to unity...since it bypasses the flesh. We come together on the ground of Christ...we are all equal at the foot of the cross. But as long as...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Apart from a God-inspired revival...it has always been the selfless service of believers...and the sacrifice of their bodies...that has led to people seeing Christianity as being inspired by God. And not only does a proper witness change individual lives...it also affects society as a whole. The...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    No. 1 reason: Immature believers who bring shame to the name of Christ...having been deviated from the way of truth and turned aside to ways of justifying an uncrucified flesh. The Jews (and most non-believers) can see through what is a put-on...what is being faked. People are looking for...

    Jesus Revolution

    Hello to all! I saw the Jesus Revolution movie last night. It's very good. It shows to some degree the hippie movement being transformed into the Jesus movement with many becoming followers of Jesus. A revival that began in the 60's....but that persisted and traveled the globe. Of particular...

    I think I'm done with this thread. Let the righteous remain righteous, and let the filthy remain filthy.
