Quotable "Christian" hypocrisy.

Go ahead...you criticize against those in Christ, you criticize Christ, for which you will answer to Him. Incidentally...Jesus did not "champion" Himself, but rather the Father. Likewise, we do not "champion" ourselves, but give glory to God.

The misunderstanding here, is not taking to heart that of ourselves we "can do nothing." "Lest anyone should boast." So if you want to say, "Anyone who has Christ has to do good works", fine. Because they do not do it of themselves. But that is the point of those who are against saying "they"...

The principles that you are voicing are the effects of the double edged sword of God, and rightly dividing the word of truth. The day of judgement is indeed one day, but it is the double edged sword that makes it appear to be more than one judgement. There is one judgement but it is only the...

No, I will come back and fill in the details. But you are leaving out a ton of what Jesus said about us "in Him" and partaking of Him, him who is perfect.

You can put that limitation on God if you want, but that is you. To refuse those whom He has sent, is to refuse Him. But you look for where Jesus said everything in the flesh, and miss what He has said in spirit through those He has sent. Did He not say, "On the third day, I shall be...

Whether from Christ or from Paul, either way it is the truth from God. As for Paul "to live is Christ."

You are mistaking the chronology of the way it is written as different times of judgement for each, but the day of judgement is one day. As for those who show mercy and the teachings of Jesus, no one comes to Christ unless the Father draws them. Such mercy is of the Father...not the person...

That is not what the parable says... It says "all the nations", not all the nations except Israel. The word pertains to all. How is it then that you call me "narrow" and "religious" when I quoted as it is written? Is it not you who is being narrow by leaving out God's people, to say nothing of...

I Corinthians 1:30 "But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption"

That is true, but He first gave an overshadowing qualification to His comments and the scope of things, as pertaining to "all who call Me Lord." I would suggest, that if we consider that it is He who has fulfilled the law (and not men), that this was the reason for His reference to the...

One at a time. No...the sheep and the goats parable does not address the issue of salvation, but rather that there are goats among those who are saved, which are not saved. If you look away from the issue at heart, you will see what is not there. But if you look only to salvation, men do not...

There are no "other Scriptures which apparently teach salvation is also, to one degree or another, by works." They all can be explained without contradiction. Any such discrepancies are due to misunderstanding, and relying upon ones own thoughts and understanding. Such thoughts do not explain...

This is a tangent...we are not talking about those "who call Jesus Lord." But that is the explanation...He was not addressing the saved or the unsaved, but rather making the point that all who call Him Lord are not saved, only those who hear Him. Thus, as pertains to this topic, there are those...

Listen to you "Prove it!" But, I have given you all of what you demand already, and you don't even see it when I quote it. Shall I now repeat myself repeating what the scriptures say? Obviously, the repetition has not been met in you by the Holy Spirit...as the Holy Spirit does not need proof...

Thank you for that general definition of the law. But we are not speaking of the general definition, but of what is true of baptism. My reference to Christ saying that there would be some who would be told "I never knew you", was also general. Thus, it was not meant for you to go off on some...

That description is correct. But you are in over your head. In your many posts and threads you have ventured beyond the shallow waters of baptism to speculate a meaning that is incorrect...and thus, you are preaching your own understanding, and a lie. According to the correct description of...

I should scold you for not using quotation marks, chapter and verse. But you have paraphrased it well enough. That much is elementary. Now, if you were receiving it, that would be enough. But if you intend to teach and preach it, tell me, since the words are spirit...what is the meaning?

This is not an elementary topic. You have made claims regarding heavenly matters, meaning that this topic is for those who are mature, not "those who want to learn something." Which you have done poorly, as the blind leading the blind (which, if you were mature, is an example of what you should...

I did not say that baptism is unnecessary. Indeed it is. But the power is not in the ceremonial use of water, but rather by the power of God through the Spirit. As for "LAWLESSNESS", what is unlawful, is to do things in the name of the Lord without the Spirit. Jesus made it clear that His words...
