There is more than one plane to the Christian walk. Paul is always speaking of the higher walk. He had already walked on the lower walk all his life. So how many walk with no regard to the flesh? How many walk in resurrection life? So we have to see that the high calling that Paul was being...

An unbroken seed doesn't bear fruit. We are to be FOUND in Christ....no longer walking as a common man. Phil. 3:9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: Ironically...

Yes. And I think most or all of us agree with you here...you have found the middle-ground, so to speak. But the difference is the fact that there is more than 1 salvation we need to cross over into. There is "saved from", and "saved to". There are the righteous, and the holy. In Psalms 116 it...

Keep in mind the wilderness walk that we as Gentiles are in spiritually. Why we fail to manifest outwardly is because we are still trapped on the wrong side of the Jordan. We are in Adam until we enter INTO Christ. Into the Promised land where we cease to be "IN Adam" (Hebrew be-Adam). This is...

Just notice what people are saying that agree with your take. They are happy to have God's unconditional approval. They are happy to be "saved". As long as people take a sample of grace for the full measure, the church will remain dead and/or in a deep sleep. This was prophesied...the "rouach...

I see how you are seeing this.... but you have my purpose wrong. I see a future judgment and rejection coming on the church of our time. But the wheat and tares must grow together. What I am seeking to avoid are so many losses in the wilderness part of the walk. I expect this to be...

Amen! I pray the Lord hears your hearts' cry brother. It's always about coming to the end of ourselves.

I have tried to explain things to you in many ways...but the pride is so strong in you that you react. You don't brag about yours?....that is itself a brag. I speak only to help others grasp difficult truths. I don't know how aware you are of your own condition. I certainly don't come here for...

Tweeking? Maybe at some point. But many need more than that. We have access to the full measure of grace right now. But the cost is high. So costly, in fact, that the rich (like us) have the most terrible time to attain it. We have too much to lose, it seems. Paul say...always learning...

Of course. As long as you keep in mind that Paul was human as we are...and he was speaking of HIS experiences with the Lord...which informed his understanding of the scriptures. Paul didn't just invent religious formulas that are unattached to what's available to us even now by faith. I get...

We are speaking about truth, here. Maybe you are more used to coming up with something that your creative mind can engage in. Do I have to give up my testimony and all the Lord has guided me into to be your friend? Using a musical analogy, do I have to pretend I can't play my instrument to not...

Aha! At last someone who admits that light covers up darkness. We can always count on @Enoch111 to make outrageous and irrational claims based on religious misreadings of the bible! ;) No one is as righteous as God. That's not the purpose of the anointing of Christ. It is a silly notion and...

This has to do with the way the bible has been translated. A little word here and there can change the meaning. Those who are Christ's have the flesh crucified (Or...have been crucified in the flesh). It doesn't say that we crucify ourselves. No one can crucify themselves. Did Jesus crucify...

? An "aravon" is indeed a downpayment of sorts. The rest is only given when the appropriate conditions are met. Who is doing the purchasing? God purchases the free sample for us and MAKES AVAILABLE THE FULL MEASURE...but we must be the ones who pay to receive that full measure. We have to let...

Amen! We can put on the perfection of Christ to walk as He walked. In Him is no sin. Col. 2:10 And you are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: 11 In whom also you are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the...

I was planning a podcast on that very chapter....called "Paul's manifesto!" Good call! Peace <><

Not at all. I see the Old Man as one that is "undisturbed" by the light of God at regeneration. We go from darkness to light in an INITIAL grace. We go from Romans 6 to Romans 7 in this way. Yet there is still the sin factory to deal with. To go from Romans 7 to 8 requires the operation of God...

I have said this a few times already. :) The Old Man is dead...as we cross over from bondage into the wilderness walk. But the outer man is only crucified as we cross over Jordan. God "vets" His people through trials and tribulations in the wilderness. Because of a lack of knowledge, most never...

2 Cor. 4: 15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. [16] For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. The outer man (outward man) is the seat of...

A warning to the outer man to be sure. The religious sensibilities of people wants to be uplifted...molly-coddled. We are to speak the truth in love. But people hate the truth. Most will see the truth as being against love...well self-love anyway. The forum is a place where anyone with a...
