just remain as you are.

"H. Richard, post: 440196, member: 6940"]*** I don't know where you get your idea that dispensationaism """"denies""" that "IN CHRIST" there is no difference between people. It upholds the idea that "IN CHRIST" there is no difference between people. brilliant. That's what the bible says. You...

The race is not just about...getting there...it's about remaining there. Jesus said...Abide in Me. That's how we bear the kind of fruit that brings glory and reward. But the gate is narrow...AND so is the road. So then our perfection is about location location location. It is IN Him. We need...

Step 2 in getting grace WRONG 2. Put the emphasis on the "finished work" of the cross. Put all the responsibility on Jesus. Grace makes you not responsible...like a child or mentally incompetent person. Jesus did everything for you....so you don't have to do anything. In fact confront those who...

Step 2 in getting grace RIGHT 2. Perseverance. If at first you don't succeed...the race isn't over yet (not until God says so). A fervent seeking of God MOVES Him to respond. A fervent faith MOVES God. Humble yourself and be determined. God loves a quiet and gentle spirit. While we are...

First step in getting grace WRONG... 1. Assume we live in a time of grace where no contact with God is necessary....just believe you have grace already...and you do. Use the bible to try covering your carnal tracks. Hey we all sin anyway... Author: The Prince of lies (who doesn't want people...

Step one in preparing for grace. 1. Seek God until you receive power from heaven. Jesus did not send His flock into the world as powerless individuals. He brought them together to experience His grace in order to take over the world. PS: This is the narrow way as a person must be personally...

For every picture there is a negative. For every truth there is a lie that looks the same to the carnal mind. The truth is very difficult to follow. The lie looks like greasy grace.

This is a silly notion that has been adopted by Messianic groups....to prop up the flesh. We are seeing a lot of flesh being propped up these days...at the expense of truth. The is ONE Bride....Israel. The Israel of God. All who overcome are of Israel. So then the Bride is for overcomers. We...

...until we learn to be mature in the love that God presents to us.

"BobRyan, post: 440138, member: 7908"]No he didn't -- we still have a sinful nature even after the cross. Don't confuse nature with law. If we still had a sin nature then we would not feel horrible after sinning...since it would be in our nature to sin. But that is not the state of a converted...

"Enoch111, post: 440043, member: 7853"]With all due respect, I believe episkopos is rather confused about basics such as grace, imputed righteousness, and sinless perfection in this life. Grace: the power of God usward who believe. imputed righteousness: no such thing. A false doctrine based...

Picture a road...with 2 ditches....one on either side of the road. At the end of the road picture a target. Transgression is the sins of the flesh...the normal sins of rebellion for non-believers. To the right there is iniquity....like the sins of the Pharisees...religious sins of pride and lies...

How is it false?

seriously!?

Needs practice....and maybe some more instruction.

So try it....try actually doing what the bible instructs us to do.

Respond with grace...remember?!?

Col 4:6 Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person. IOW not hating or threatening people.

If we are born again we have new divine natures. But we also have a law in our members which compels us in a direction we don't want to go in. The only way to overcome the law of sin is with a greater law....the law of life in Christ Jesus. His life ON us is stronger than the power of sin in...
