    The War on Error

    We are talking of error on a biblical scale. Literally. It would seem that for many people the bible is not helping them. Rather than seeing something that is very miraculous and far...many reduce the bible to what they are already living. The things that are spiritual and inward are turned into...

    The War on Error

    ...which others than yourself can see very well. It takes real humility to allow oneself to be revealed by the bible...or by others. What mostly happens with bible readers is that they justify their errors through the bible. They formulate a doctrine that supports a salvation status of their own...

    The War on Error

    ....which makes your soul the final arbiter of truth.....which of course it isn't. So then the bible seems to confirm error at every turn. Such is the way of man.

    A Common Error

    To hell, you say...:eek: You are supporting a different gospel...and in the very danger you are warning others about. Paul taught the gospel of the kingdom of God which is also called the gospel of Christ or the gospel of God. Acts 28:23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came many...

    The War on Error

    The flawed logic is in giving the bible to flawed people with flawed thinking and expecting them to see their own way out of error. The irony is that the bible is there to reveal our true state. So then religiously errant people will interpret the bible to support their religiously errant...

    Sound Doctrine

    The Holy Spirit does not relinquish power to men. So if Luther was directed by God to do something....that doesn't mean that people are to shift their obedience to Luther. Our obedience is to God. Christ is the only Mediator. Luther is only useful to God as he is a catalyst to bring people into...

    The War on Error

    Jesus said... John 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly." Error brings death. Even well-intentioned error brings death. Prov. 14:12 There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death. So then...

    The War on Error

    Ever since the declaration of "Mission Accomplished" by those who see the bible as "the way, the truth, and the life"...the insurgency of error (or errorists) has been on the rise. Just as Paul Bremmer confidently declared that everything he did was directed by the Lord (he did read the bible)...

    The Righteous

    Welcome here! :)

    GALATIANS 2 JUSTIFIED BY CHRIST *****

    We are made righteous by the faith that brings down grace that fulfills the law. Newness of life means newness of power. Newness of life does NOT mean a life of irresponsibility to the laws of God. His righteousness is not "accounted" to us unless we actually walk in the same power that...

    GALATIANS 2 JUSTIFIED BY CHRIST *****

    The "we" here is all believers. You no doubt believe that Gentile believers are to be lawless. But that is far from the truth. Grace enables us to fulfill the law. God is a God of law. Grace is a helper to fulfill His LAWfull will.

    FELLOWSHIP HERE

    God has a definite sense of humour. Today...yes it began early, I received an important email which I had been waiting for. I tried to save it in gmail by putting it in "archive". Little did I know that this feature means delete until response back again. When God winks at you...you have to...

    FELLOWSHIP HERE

    Every thread should be like this....where only edification is the goal. :)

    “And the earth was without form, and void”

    This is about the spiritual order. I think the salient point in this portion of the word is...And they had no light. This, of course, is not a physical light...but a spiritual one. God is a God of order. Sin entering into His creation broke that order. So then, in the outward world, we return...

    Calvinism?

    There is a potential danger concerning spiritual experience. But there is also a lot of unfounded fears. We do have the bible as a guide into the truth...but also the fruit. Those who can't discern the fruit are going to be swallowing lies whether they have deeper experiences or not. My sheep...

    For those who don't believe in prophets today....explain this

    Cessationists believe that somehow...by some fluke, plot, or cosmic error, God and all His angels have gotten themselves trapped within the confines of the pages of our bibles....I suppose in a similar way that the criminals on Krypton were banished to a floating prison in space (in the Superman...

    The Natural Man

    I want to show that as Christians we still have this renewal that is so important to engage in. Natural means according to the nature of this world.

    The Natural Man

    As in hiding behind the mask...or the bushes if you are Adam or Eve. God made skins for them to hide their nakedness. But the rebellious angels gave us a natural persona to exist in this world with. We are to cut through the lies and get to the truth...in the light. But many people prefer the...

    The Natural Man

    I was thinking of this... Rom. 12:14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
