The cornerstone of all religion is based on saving the outer man....yes. One must tear down before one can build. Look at Jeremiah...a prophet to the nations....what did God say for him to do? "See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down...

Answer to @VictoryinJesus Man is created in God's image...in the inner man. It is possible to rally to God (from that place) by humbling ourselves in heartfelt surrender. That is within our power. We can STOP what we are doing at any time, and trust the Lord. To some degree we can...by faith...

My answer to @Lizbeth In my time of warring for the truth, I have assailed this fortress many times. And with some success. What I'm fighting against is a spiritual stronghold that imprisons believers in half-truths and lies. So yes, as Paul said, I am tearing down spiritual strongholds. But...

Thank you Keturah for a fine example of a heretical teaching. Without people willing to go out on a limb and post what some extremist religionists believe...these threads would not be as interesting.

There you go! A proper use of the word imputing. Finally. Do you see that imputing needs to be true? It can't be something that is not appropriate to attribute to someone. Like we can't impute sin to Christ or God's righteousness to people. There may yet be hope! :)

Yes. The wilderness walk has doctrines that perpetuate a lack of advancement into holiness. It's called "incremental holiness"...which doesn't exist. Looking to be covered by Christ incrementally makes one walk in endless circles. Either one crosses over into the Promised Land...or not. We can...

Education is key. Knowledge is key. I remember back in the day there was a misunderstanding of the word "aggravate". People would say they were aggravated about something. What they meant was, they were frustrated or angry about something. But aggravate means to make worse. So it was a misuse...

LOL. I am totally grasping what is being said. It's just not biblical. And you are not using the word "imputation" correctly. And the reason for that misuse is a misunderstanding of what divine grace is as well as human responsibility.

All of creation is awaiting the revealing of the sons of God. This time we live in presently is a time where the kingdom realm in the Spirit is available to all people. We are to seek first His kingdom while we yet live. There is no seeking for His kingdom when we are dead.

Luther isn't Christ. You have been convinced of a man made religious scheme that takes away both righteousness and holiness. Like this... Warning: Sound Doctrine Alert. Difficult for religious people to endure content. I see you are unable to refute what I say using the bible. :)

Paul reasoned with people. Jesus reasoned with people. The truth is hard...but it isn't unreasonable. However, religiously indoctrinated people are no longer reachable through reason. They will say that you need to be more "spiritual" ie...UNreasonable... to understand what is plainly NOT...

Yes...but not religious speculations that offend God. That's not the case. We are not born with sin..we are born outside God's presence. We learn to rely on an outer man covering that protects us in this world. Why does God's covenant require circumcision? The foreskin is meant as a...

We sample God's goodness at regeneration..we are forgiven, cleansed, and given a new motivation from within to fear the Lord and obey His commandments. What is left in us is a template of Christ into which we are to be conformed. it's called discernment! :) And knowledge and understanding. You...

I suppose we must take error to its most drastic and illogical conclusion. What is needed here is a thesaurus or even a dictionary. I speak here of @Keturah 's propaganda campaign regarding the error that I'm hoping will be seen for what it is...thus liberating modern believers into a place...

1. I have been with the Lord for a long time. Since 1980/ I have changed a lot. :) 2. I began in the Spirit...baptized into a walk in Zion. 18 years later...after a LOT of struggles...I was permitted to go back in the Spirit...this time for a few years. 2. But I failed after much testing in...

To know the truth that sets us free from the bondage to sin.

There is a part WE are responsible for...our faith and our faithfulness. That is incremental....as we learn to obey God more and more. This is analog. And then there is the empowering grace of God to do the impossible...that is INSTANTLY perfect (as a gift). This is by His faith and...

The council approved what Paul was preaching because God was backing him up with signs and wonders, and many changed lives that caused the people at large to glorify God. The conduct of the new Gentile believers was exemplary...and a strong sense of the fear of the Lord was spreading over what...

You have expressed the understanding of the "little book" in rev. 10. Sweet in the mouth but the end is bitter. Jesus said that it was those who believed INTO Him that experience His eternal life...the life we experience as we abide in Him. But that concept is a spiritual one and not so easily...
