Perfected does not mean sinless perfection but bring to maturity. Believers abide by remaining in Him. The one who says he remains in him should walk just as he walked. We absolutely should. Jesus walked in truth and in love and that should be the goal of every believer. That is a lot of "I"...

You are beginning to sound like a troll. An agitator at the very least. Apparently, you ignored post #2. The heretical doctrine of sinless perfection remains your achilles heel. (1 John 1:8) Believers do not bypass repentance (Acts 20:21) and repentance is a change of mind and does not mean...

1 Corinthians 12:3 - Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except BY the Holy Spirit. There is divine influence or direct operation of the Holy Spirit in the heart of a person when confessing Jesus as...

You continue to confuse what it means to be "accounted as righteous" (Romans 4:2-3) with what it means to be "shown to be righteous." (James 2:21) your eisegesis results in contradiction here. Salvation by works and sinless perfection is not the gospel of James 2 or 1 John 1:8-10. You are...

I already explained to you multiple times there is a difference between salvation through faith (rightly understood) in Christ alone for salvation (Romans 4:5-6; Ephesians 2:8,9) and an empty profession of faith/dead faith that remains alone - "barren of works." (James 2:14-24) What part of God...

Oh the irony. Grow up.

Your true colors are obvious (1 John 1:8-10) and I'm not interested in your straw man arguments or your eisegesis.

I follow the Bible and not false teachers.

Matthew 21:32 - For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him. *Notice the order. Mark 1:15 - The time is accomplished, and the kingdom of...

Don't confuse faith (rightly understood) in Jesus Christ "alone" for salvation (Romans 4:5-6; Ephesians 2:8,9) with an empty profession of faith/dead faith that remains "alone" - barren of works. (James 2:14-24) Also, don't confuse repentance (change of mind) or the fruit of repentance...

The gospel is the "good news" of the death, burial and resurrection of Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) and is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that BELIEVES.. (Romans 1:16) To "believe" the gospel is to trust in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ as the ALL-sufficient means of...

Exactly right. The hopelessness of a self-righteous religious gospel is based on SELF centeredness, SELF promotion, SELF righteousness and SELF preservation. The self-righteous religious gospel is not the power of God unto salvation for everyone who BELIEVES.. (Romans 1:16) According to the...

Those who believe they live a sinless, perfect life 100% of the time (exactly as Christ lived) are suffering from a terminal case of self righteousness. (1 John 1:8-10)

Do you claim to live a sinless, without fault or defect, flawless, absolute perfect life 100% of the time, exactly as Jesus Christ lived?

So how does one "put on" Christ in baptism? Is it because one becomes a "child of God" through water baptism? NO. (See Galatians 3:26 and also John 1:12 on how one becomes a child of God -- no mention of baptism) "Let us therefore cast off the works of darkness and let us put on the armor of...

How are we saved? By grace through faith and not by works, including water baptism. (Ephesians 2:8,9) In Acts 4:4, we read - However, many of those who heard the word believed; and the number of the men came to be about five thousand. *What happened to baptism? In Acts 5:14, we read - And...

As we all should be. Yes. Galatians 2:16 - knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall...

The next time you attempt to read your bias into Galatians 3:27 in regard to the words, "put on" be sure to notice the preceding verse on how to become a child of God mentions faith and not baptism. Compare that with John 1:12. Also see Romans 13:12-14, Ephesians 4:22-24 and Ephesians 6:11 in...

If you don't properly harmonize scripture with scripture before reaching your conclusion on doctrine then you will only end up with contradictions resulting in not properly following God's word.
