    The Sin Nature

    Why does it seem to me you become defensive when simply sharing things towards me? No I do not desire your correction.

    @Charlie24, did go and read what I had shared?

    The Sin Nature

    @Christophany, I am a firm believer that the Revelation has very unique traits about it. Wouldn't you agree? It is similar to when the vision on the mount of the transfiguration also occurred completely in front of Peter, James, and John seeing Jesus in his transfiguration. Which I believe they...

    The Sin Nature

    It is a wonder why John had fell down upon as though dead, in Revelation 1:10-20, considering John seen the resurrected Christ, and also spent time with him while he was alive.

    The Sin Nature

    Understandable you guys. It is because you hold a different view of revelation than myself. As I believe everything has been fulfilled. Doesn't make a difference to me personally what you believe because you will remain unmoved from your stance. Myself use to believe Jesus was coming back, but...

    The Sin Nature

    He is now the Lord God Almighty, who sits on the throne of his Father. That is how I believe. Everything has to be couched in scripture to have any merit for the most part. Jesus was coming quickly as it is stated many times through the Revelation.

    The Sin Nature

    There are secular writers that will differ with you, Josephus, Suetonius, Cassius Dio, Tacitus @Charlie24. However that right there which is offered takes time to look at read and consider. Love you brother! Can not help that we see differently but am willing to give information to consider...

    The Sin Nature

    You are right, the spirit leads us into truth. The truth that I have decided to believe in is that Jesus wasn't wrong about the generation he spoke of coming back to, and the Apostles were not wrong either. Famous person C.S. Lewis said that "Jesus saying this generation" is one of the...

    Was Jesus/Yeshua born with a Sin Nature?

    Heart2soul, Thank you and also others who have shared. Today thinking more about Jesus and what he had done, and his birth, perhaps when Jesus was born, that being of the Holy Spirit through Mary. The sin nature that he did have by and through the flesh was inactive, though he was tempted...

    The Sin Nature

    Guess it’s where our understandings cross. I don’t see Jesus sitting at the right hand anymore.

    The Sin Nature

    Our spiritual bodies are being built up now in which God dwells in by His Holy Spirit. People in this life build up this spirit by having a relationship with God having love for him first and love for others in this life. Upon death rewards are merited upon each individual and there are...

    The Sin Nature

    I believe we will have spiritual bodies personally @Charlie24 no one has to agree with me, simply agreeing with Paul when he had said, I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

    Where do you put your Confidence or Trust?

    It is all about the anointed one and everything he has done for all human beings. Imagine if Jesus never came and took on the sins for all the world… this place would be extremely godless.

    The Sin Nature

    Then where does sin come from? Only outside sources? It is because of the Devil? God sent Moses with 10 commandments to let us know what sin is. One of them is to not covet. Is the sin within you when you steal or covet but you don’t realize it until you see the 10 commandments which says do...

    Can we ever stop sinning or be perfect?

    Hello Mailmandan, Even Paul himself did not claim to be perfected, he continued on in hopes to obtain the rising of the dead (which is a different resurrection than the normal one), and He had more confidence to put in his flesh than anyone else. However he stated we are the circumcision (of...

    Where do you put your Confidence or Trust?

    Confidence has several different definitions, and the two talked about are defined as one a state of feeling certain about that truth of something and the other a feeling of self-assurance arising from one's appreciation of one's own abilities or qualities First let this needs to be stated ...

    Can we ever stop sinning or be perfect?

    Your flesh will alway fail, at least at some point in life. If it didn’t then you might become to prideful (which can happen spiritually (spiritual pride) ands it’s not good), if you don’t stay humble before God. That’s my two cents, try not to put confidence in your flesh and allow the spirit...

    Binding of Satan - Explanation from Full Preterist Perspective

    Ah to many people put to much fear of Satan in their lives for me. Like stated I don’t know everything about pretrist view in like how they see things. However I do believe Jesus came back for his bride and didn’t lie to those living breathing people, nor did the apostles lie to their living...

    Was Jesus/Yeshua born with a Sin Nature?

    From the Calvinist perspective: everything is predetermined. Everyone on earth is going to hell in a hand basket and only Jesus atoned for a limited group of people. Thus, there is no free will. So that is just something to put in this picture too, my friends. You’re right though our focus...

    Was Jesus/Yeshua born with a Sin Nature?

    (If anyone reads this read everything thank you.) Thank you for the comment Jason. If something profound comes along I’ll pass it along that is the benefit for this subject here as it was something made apparent to me just recently that was never considered. Because God created the inherit...
