    The social gospel?

    1. I believe Abraham Knew God 2. I believe abraham Learned in his lifetime that God was trustworthy. 3. Although he did not have a perfect faith (we know from all his sins) we know when God spoke to him, and made him make a decision, Abraham chose to trust God. Not because Abraham had some human...

    He has not mastered holiness, No one has but Christ. Now Christ can and will set him apart and make him holy. But only if he repents. And stops tryign to work himself and let God work in and through him

    What can I do as a normal human can’t what kind of question is this? I would ask him , since he asked this question One thing I can do is love, But not because I have the power to love, But because God first loved me. but he does not understand this, he is to much in love with himself.

    About all I have is expose EPI syndrome that I have had for years Do I believe we can have times where we are walking in love, Of course I do do i think we can be perfect and have no sin. Well John said I would be deceived if I thought that. So I chose to listen to John, Not a self righteous...

    No one is waiting to die to be purged from sin. How many times does this have to be explained to you. @VictoryinJesus is not waiting for this non of us are We have been saved. By god”s Mercy not by our good deeds (Titus 3:5 We have been saved by grace through faith who 2 We have been made...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    Well true believers do not believe this. They know god will complete the work in them But hey if you think you can add your works to grace feel free. Good luck with that See again you show lack of trust or faith in God. God will change their lives. Stop painting to self and point up. He will...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    There is a way to be united We are saved BY GRACE through faith, not of works Those who are saved WILL work (not might) because they were created anew for good works The problem is people who push works usually push a legalistic mindset. For those of us in christ. We do nto have t push woris...

    I said no such thing, there you go falsly accusing again God imputed righteousness to Abraham because he had faith, He will I put it to us also Romans 4: 13 For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness...

    Your right, He has forgiven us our sins now. He puts them as far as the east is from the Wes There is no purgatory. You can;t pay for your sins Agree

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    No heaven is a gift. We all deserve hell.. we could never deserve heaven if you have to safeguard it, it is not a gift is it. I call that a down payment. Ie, I give it to you for free, But you have to work to keep it. Once again you talking about what we do after we are saved. Not what we do...

    Why are the martyrs under heavens altar so eager to see justice for their killers?

    I think it is because in heavent they understand what God knows. There is no hope for these people. They are beyond hope. As God told abraham, their sin is complete. So allowing them to live is to allow them to continue to kill Gods people. I also think it helps us. How many times have we seen...

    No Condemnation For Those In Christ, But... Sinning Believers Are Condemned Ro 14:23?

    This is partially true. But when people say works we do nto always think of the law. Again, You work for a reward. or you work out of appreciation. Salvation is a gift not a reward..

    When are God's Elect Justified?

    So they are justice by the death of Christ or by the way we walk?

    The social gospel?

    True In all ages (dispensations or whatever you want to call them) with the exception of the age of innocent (pre-fall) all men have been born dead. And the only means to be restored has been grace. Abraham BELIEVED God and it was accredited, imputed, accounted (whatever word you want to use)...

    The social gospel?

    talk about non responsive. your first comment, what does it even mean? your second, your trying to deflect. Mischaracterization? Are you now pointing to the cross and grace as a means of eternal life. Or do you still believe it makes you perfect so you can earn your way in?

    The social gospel?

    Sadly, when we are stuck in our own thinking, in pride, we can not tolerate when people disagree with us, We are so offended we have to lash out.

    The social gospel?

    That is why legalistic thinking boggles my mind How can we look to a perfect and righteous God and think we even come close. I think we even sin sins we do not even know are sins. Thats part of christian growth. I think as paul said, as mature a believer as he was. He considered himself the...
