Amen. This is the righteousness of faith. Here is the error. It is impossible that God's righteousness be imputed to us. His righteousness comes only from God and only He owns that righteousness. Only God is as righteous as God. But we take on His righteousness by entering into Christ. His...

The reality is that people today are able to put faith in the bible...without actually believing what the bible is saying. The bible is accepted as authoritave without having any practical authority in real life. This is the sad situation we find we are in today....if not ourselves directly, yet...

The church is meant to demonstrate God's love to the world. Speculating about God's love and arguing over who has the better explanation has no place whatsoever in the church of God. That is an assignment of carnal men towards other carnal men. When men squabble over bible verses it brings...

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for one day: teach a man to fish and you will feed him for a lifetime." Old Proverb 1 Cor. 2:4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: With all the methods that people can...

All we do...compared with God...is as filthy rags yes. Our strength is nothing compared to God. So then nobody has any strength at all right? Nobody can pick up a glass of water to help someone in need? We need for a supernatural power on us to lift that glass of water. And so goes the...

We need God's righteousness in the church...not for self-justification as people seek to misuse and redirect the truth to serve self...but for authority and power to come that His will be done on Earth as it is in heaven.

You first. Your condescensions are well known in these parts. Truth be told, you have neither fear of God nor humility nor any love to speak of. So what you say has no meaning or bearing on anything remotely edifying.

A pernicious...and apparently persistent heresy at that!

My theology is very sound of course...but you have to go back in history before the corruption of the gospel for it to make sense. Today...as the bible said...many have turned aside to fables. This is the popular and now accepted way to distort the truth to one's favour...to the favour of...

Another "don't listen to Jesus" thread! o_O

No problem...public forum...and we also have private chat for personal type conversations. :)

Well I know that it is very wrong to add in words to the bible that take away the plain meaning...such as adding in the word "self" when Jesus talks about the righteous....or adding in the words "the righteousness of Christ" when God declared Abraham was a righteous man (And it was counted to...

Thought I'd share this project of mine with ya'll! :) It does say to sing to one another in spiritual songs. ;) Have a listen or two. If you click on the Youtube logo you can go to "show more" and get the time links to the tunes.

Only Jesus offers us that kind of life. :)

Jesus as guru? There is a mystery that the community of faith live by...in the presence of God. The world experienced this in the witness and lives of the early church. Of course at this time these things are unknown.

The righteousness of God is really manifested from the OT. The verse says...WITNESSED by the law and prophets. That means that the prophets had the righteousness of God UPON them. The anointing of God IOW. And that is what they who enter into Christ also have upon them. And this is to minister...

The spiritual walk is unique...as unique as Jesus Christ is. When we walk in the Spirit we are INSIDE His body (spiritually) looking out to see as He sees. This is a very unique and unforgettable experience. When we read the bible after that experience...everything makes sense and falls into...

Really? How so?

In the next age....not now. We can walk in the Spirit right now by faith. The kingdom life is eternal life IN Christ. Seemingly unknown to walk in Him these days. So much confusion. Eternal life is a kind of life...His life. Walk in Him and live.

Paul preached the gospel of the kingdom...just like Jesus did. The difference was that Jesus preached a kingdom was coming (future tense) ...and Paul preached the coming of the kingdom. Anything else is accursed by God and Paul himself. Paul would never curse the gospel that Jesus preached. He...
