Exactly. So what's stopping you? Do you see yourself as the first in line...and anyone who actually does what you say is a liar? So do you believe the bible or not?

God judges us as WE are not how He is. On OUR scale...there are things we do, imperfect things, that we cannot help ourselves to do in our weakness. We are INsufficient in ourselves...and God takes that into consideration. He compares like with like. Like a handicap in golf. So then common sins...

Forgetting about sin, or covering up sin, is for the righteous among the nations..come judgment day. Why do we need to have our sins covered up when we are to present our bodies a living sacrifice to be dealt with at the cross here and now? The discrepancy is to mix up salvation from sin...by...

This from @Adam . Very well said! :)

I'm in the TSESA (The sect that is everywhere spoken against ....Acts 28:22) ...with all the spiritual Christian disciples not affiliated with the religious system of men. Without (outside) the camp bearing His reproach Heb. 13:13 So then God's Son is saved. But He can't see you? Was I wrong to...

Exactly! So instead they attack the one who lays out biblical truth that is balanced. I'll say that there are 2 testaments, two principal commandments, 2 judgments, 2 resurrection, 2 levels of walk..and get called a false teacher. Then another says he is as righteous as God...and people think...

Not an attack..an observation. Look at my threads if you want to see attacks. I lay out scriptures..and get personal attacks for it. People say they want better dialogue...but are then unable to do so.

How are you not being caustic here? Doing the very thing you say you hate? A porous head? Is that a Christian comment?

OK Let me set this out... What is the relationship between righteousness (justification), and salvation by faith (faithfulness). 1. These belong on one level or the other. They must be understood on their level. The level of salvation corresponds to the level of faith and righteousness. 2...

You swallowing camels...but your fellow posters will not call you out on it. They call covering up errors....love. :rolleyes:

Reading skills aside..you are not the first to read the book. In the book are laid out the ways of God (plural) AND the way of God in Christ. It's not surprising that you are skimming and not understanding the distinction. The only self-righteous act is to think one is righteous. Are you...

yes, But then you go on to say other things as if Jesus only died for the church. You are mixing apples with hand-grenades here. Jesus didn't die for our justification. No, He was RAISED to life for the justification of LIFE (Read Romans 5) for those who believe. He DIED for the sins of the...

Maybe you need to be better informed. The Reformation threw out the Catholic idea of God IMPARTING righteousness to the one who is ready to be elevated into holiness. But Luther hated that idea. He said, rather, that God imputes His own righteousness on a believer "just as if he never sinned"...

All protestant churches do. Luther did...and people follow Luther unquestioningly...like what Keturah said..."idolization"...(whatever that means). :) A fresh coat of snow over a dunghill...that shields God's ability to discern what we really are???!!??? :rolleyes: But as you can see by my...

We surrender into His covering righteousness through OUR repentance (our righteousness) , not HIS repentance.... and WE are the ones who build on the foundation of Christ? How? by righteousness. But most people will NOT do this. Instead, through ignorance and a lively ego...most will build on...

LOL. I have no title or professional vapouring to hide behind. What do you know of me? It's incredible that you put so much faith in your own opinion. If that doesn't prove your motivation to everyone here.... I am outside the religious system with its artificial titles and support. I have come...

I have to disagree with you otherwise if I did agree, I might be accused of idolatry (or idolization or whatever):eek: :hmhehm:backtop:

I don't assume anything. And I've said I am not presently in the perfect walk at this time. Otherwise I wouldn't be here. Do I have to say it in every post to not offend you ego Mr. E (go)? You are assuming things from your own experience. If you said the things I say...it would definitely be...

To @Eternally Grateful That's what you say...not me. To understand things like salvation, righteousness and holiness...you have to pay a lot more attention than what you are doing. This is not about INHERITING salvation. The modern doctrines don't care about the power of Christ over sin. They...

Not at all. I'm open to a proper and scriptural challenge to what I say. I actually thrive on it. I love Bible studies. :) What you are missing in your estimation is the level of my training in Christ. I can't say much here as so many are fragile in their way of seeing others than themselves...
