Eusebius was very respected as a man of God in his time. He was in the minority who stood against the tampering of scripture for the "sake of" men's governance over the Church. Think about it. Who is in control of the Church if you remove the necessity of God's direct intervention? Depending on...

Actually many will be saved...among the righteous. The few are those who walk in kingdom life in this present world...the saints. The few are the holy and the many are the righteous. Few find the door which is Christ to walk in the narrow way of eternal life at the present time. Those who do so...

Actually the God of Israel...Elohey Yisrael...is Jesus the Lord. It is the Most High...the Father...the Lord of Hosts...that is the God of ALL flesh. Jesus' inheritance was His people.....Israel. Jesus was always LORD over Israel. He came to His own and they didn't recognize Him. There are...

Jesus is a quickening Spirit....sharing the one eternal Holy Spirit with His Father. Jesus is a Source of life...the Way the Truth and the Life. His human nature was unaffected by the fall...it was like Adam's nature BEFORE the fall. Jesus is called "the last Adam."With Jesus comes a fresh...

Psalm 51 1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. 3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. 4...

This is false. We are not born into God's presence....at least almost all of us are not. We develop in a life that is independent from God. And we have an outer covering (sinful) that develops in very early childhood. One day, if you have children, you will experience this sin nature developing...

You have strayed far from the truth. You need to look at yourself closer. Paul said that sin was in him....beyond his strength to overcome. That is by nature. Just because the Bible doesn't say...sin nature... doesn't negate what Paul is saying. There are many such references..but you will need...

We are quickened in the Spirit in order to seek the full measure of grace which is to walk in the resurrection life of Christ. We are justified and sanctified only as we walk in His perfected humanity in His holiness. A resurrected body is for later. We have this treasure in earthen vessels in...

Unmerited favour is Old Testament grace. We need to upgrade what grace has become with the coming of Christ. Notice the power of the Church described in Acts with the coming of grace. Everything in the NT is upgraded from what people can do in their own strength (OT standard) to what can be...

The one who walks in both righteousness and holiness. Grace is meant to empower a godly and holy walk. We can contrast a man of God with a religious man...who relies on religious rites and ideology...but without any power to walk as Jesus walked. Religion is just dressed up carnality. We know...

You forgot the free massage. This is completely out of any sense of reality. But if it makes you feel good. Your understanding is carnal in the extreme. God is not there to serve us. We are to serve God. You have it exactly backwards. Both of your examples are based on mercy. Your idea of...

Grace: The power of God unto salvation. The power usward who believe. The power to walk as Jesus walked.

Even though I am perhaps getting ahead of myself here. I wonder how you would render the very controversial Matt. 28:19? It should read..."in My name"....as per early citations based on very early reading of the original manuscripts. The RC church tampered with that verse in the 2nd century...

LOL. I have also read the Bible. :) Jesus was tested as we are...but without sin. my turn... Do you believe that the devil had a foothold in Jesus the same way he has in us?

Of course. Being God has its perks! ;) Jesus was tested and tried in the weakness of His flesh...but without sin. Through Christ we take on HIS advantage over sin. That advantage is called grace.

In the garden of Eden Adam was covered by God's life and love. His banner over us is love. When Adam sinned he lost that covering so that he realized he was naked. A naked person has no covering...clothing. Was Adam not covered before he sinned so that he wasn't naked? In the NT we are...

The problem is not with guns per se but with a gun culture. America is a place of extremes and that includes extreme irresponsibility. People tend to react to an extremist view with another extreme view ...thinking that 2 extremes make a balance. But very few seek balance by...

*"in Christ’s person the two natures are found in an inseparable union, therefore, wheresoever Christ’s deity is, there also must his humanity needs be" Jesus was not born with the Adamic nature. As such we can't say that Jesus was born with human nature. He was born with a human nature...but...

You can't compare superficial religious traditions with the depth and scale of God's words. You don't understand spiritual things....rather you are indoctrinated into a religious tradition from men. I was born Catholic...and I maintained that tradition until I met the Lord. Then my...

Spiritual things are spiritually discerned and experienced. The full measure of grace is by putting on Christ. The "how" is through a full surrender of everything we have and are. We are to ask, seek, and knock, until we receive of the Lord. The parable of the kingdom whereby we sell all to...
