OK...and I had added this...but too late... And what does this have to do with....the soul that sins...it shall die. ???

Very strange pronouncement by Paul. What do you think it means? And what does this have to do with....the soul that sins...it shall die. ???

Once it becomes a movement....the devil gets involved. Besides God never does the same thing twice, or the same way. But the devil opens up a switch and bait shop because the people want something that resembles the work of God.

God grants us a visitation for an experience of the cross....so that we are out of the way....stuck to a wall as it were. So HE does the crucifying of the outer natural man in us. This is beyond what we can do. He does this in a spiritual event... by the operation of God. He is the doctor....we...

This is good. It describes the Romans 7 experience of desiring to do good. But there is a lack of power in ourselves to fulfill that to the level of holiness. We can become decent human beings....all the while knowing that we can't fully conquer the power of sin in us. And that is because it is...

There is the ignore button. I usually have a half-dozen people on this function at any one time. I check back with their postings from time to time to see if anything has changed. Recently a poster started a thread on being sorry. That's a good sign. The people to ignore in my books takes 2...

Again false...God loves the world. It is the introduction of evil into the world by the authority of the devil that the world is in this state.

You have an agnostic stance. If one cannot deduce that there is a God by simple evidence...which is good enough for many people...then it takes an encounter with God.

That's a blatant lie. A person is lost because they are lost...not because they hate. The hate is from yourself.

That's religious hyperbole.

Which brings us to the title of the OP....God has upped the ante. How? Here is an example of grace strengthening our weakness.... It would being given the task of digging a hole and making this a law. Upping the ante is like a person who is too weak to dig a (lawful) hole with a shovel by his...

This is good...it's going the right way. As it says in Romans 8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 7 says... 7 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath...

Hey brother Scott. :) The age of the law has not passed as long as mankind lives in this present age. Remember that the verse in question (Gal. 2:19) says...THROUGH the law I am dead to the law so that I might live to God. So then if we abolish the law then we can't enter into Christ...as I...

By paying attention. Can a person learn anything by paying attention?

My sheep know My voice. Are you a loving kind of person? Can recognize pure love?

You could pray and then expect an answer...but in an unexpected way. A way you will have to be watching for. Watch and pray.

The word that goes to your heart. The living word. The word that comes to you from God. Man shall not live by bread alone but by everything that comes from the mouth of God.

Faith comes by hearing...the truth just sinks deeply into your soul so that you recognize your Creator.

Doesn't belonging to Christ make you part of His church? When people ask my of my affiliation I say ...heaven. When people ask me how many people are in our church I say millions. We aren't to measure things by the way they appear to mortal eyes.

Are you judging God? Can the created one complain about the One who created Him? Would God honour such a person with His presence?
