Your mantra has nothing to do with you. You can't accept the finished work of the cross because Jesus is not your lamb. He is the Lamb of God. In your selfish religiosity..you make outlandish and blasphemous claims to save yourself...not perceiving that this condemns you. No fear of the Lord...

You are diverting from the truth here. And you didn't respond to this. If you want to go farther into the truth on this read this... Ps. 106:30 Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed. And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for...

It's not about behaviour it's about behaviour! You gotta love these threads based on human reasoning! ;)

Hello Gnosticism. o_O

I already know what the bible is saying. It's your turn to try understanding what is written. I can help you if you wish to be honest by not ignoring some verses in order to defend other verses that you don't yet grasp the meaning of. Or you can continue to white knuckle certain verses while...

Randy Kluth said: ↑ That also had a covenant that propagated a new spiritual nature. Where do you see that in Scripture?

That's not true. James 2:24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only. 25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without...

You are playing a shell game here with too many marbles. There is NO new spiritual nature under the law. That is patently ridiculous. Is there a game going on here of which I am not aware...as in...how do get things wrong in every possible way? :) There is no achieving eternal life. We are...

Obedience through grace is not self-effort. You are not understanding grace. Faith without works is dead. You need to go back to the bible and try understanding it's message without contradicting half the verses in it. The gift is to BE obedient with. To do holy works that we will be judged...

People still sinned under the law. So you are exaggerating the power that the law can produce. There is NO power in the law. The law is like a voltmeter to see what power IS there. The law has no other power source then the obedience of men. The problem with the law is that men are forced to try...

Paul was after holiness and to walk by the resurrection power of Christ. And that Christ be FORMED in him. And that is a level that modern believers are not after...yet they quote Paul as if they already had attained to what Paul sought after. A truly amazing lack of reality. The law...

This is so false. Obedience to God is not an option. Obedience is not a gospel of works. A gospel of works is about having to become a Jew and do the law of Moses. To make this about an optional obedience to God is the biggest lie out there...and a lot of people fall for it...because they don't...

Episkopos said: ↑ A crucified person does not sin and cannot sin because the part of him that sins is crucified. Behold replied: And this explains why you sin and repent. Got it. So then only uncrucified people get to NOT repent. Makes sense.

Students of Paul? Disciples of Paul's epistles? 2 Pet. 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

The bible speaks of more things than you can wrap your mind around by your feelings and experiences. Let God's words be God's words. As in..."God never mentioned anything to me about creating meteors. Why didn't He consult me"? :eek:o_O Someone who fights against the truth of the bible is...

Someone who fights against the truth of the bible is putting their opinions, feelings, ideas...ahead of the truth. As such that person is not just uncrucified....but also unwilling to carry their own cross.

The Race of Faith Heb. 12 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our...

We carry our crosses to the place where we become crucified...after that HIS cross carries us. We then carry His death in the body so that His life can be made manifest in the world in these mortal bodies. 2 Cor. 4:10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life...

To pick our crosses and follow Him. To take ourselves to the place of execution...the cross of Christ. And then to walk faithfully till the end.

We are indeed in a competition...and this against other generations in corporate sense. Jesus often compares one generation to another...as in..."to what shall I liken this generation!?" Our present generation of believers is the most foolish of all...hence the coming time of the 10...
