  1. Episkopos

    KJV Is Not Fully Translated From the Greek IMO

    it isn't wrong to esteem one day more than another...be it saturday or sunday. The error is to replace grace with the law...or to seek to be justified by the law and a carnal observance thereof. So then "repairer of the breach" גדר פרץ (gadar perets) do you see the new covenant is about new...

    Deeper meanings in the Word

    But that isn't the meaning of the verse you quoted. We are to BE more than conquerors...not just believe we are. There is just too much room otherwise for the very human foible of self-delusion. This is not the power of positive thinking at work...but power....the grace from heaven to overcome...

    The Catholic Church and sola scriptura

    What are we to test the spirits against? Can you say...the bible?

    What Does It Mean to be Dead in Christ?

    For Jesusisfaithful... I'm wondering what this statement means.. "Since Paul warned believers against seeking to be filled again spiritually,"
  5. Episkopos

    KJV Is Not Fully Translated From the Greek IMO

    You were rejected by one group....but that doesn't change that you are yet a Christian. You should stand up for what you believe...and that is as a follower of Jesus Christ (or Yashua or Iesous). Can you remove yourself from fellowship with other believers because you hold one day over another...

    KJV Is Not Fully Translated From the Greek IMO

    There are some curiously translated verses in the KJV. And this has affected other translations as well. The one I'm thinking of at this moment is... Gal. 5:24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. Can a person crucify themselves? A person doesn't...

    KJV Is Not Fully Translated From the Greek IMO

    The obvious question is...what is the "other faith" that you are espousing?

    What Does It Mean to be Dead in Christ?

    As in...O wretched man/woman that I am...who will save me from this body of death? I thank God in Jesus Christ!

    What Does It Mean to be Dead in Christ?

    Welcome here SBG! :)

    the law of faith?

    The law of faith is like the law of aerodynamic lift that makes planes fly. The law of sin is like gravity. So then just as a plane can fly by overcoming the law of gravity by another law ...which is of flight...so also the law of faith allows us to overcome all things in this life...sin, the...

    Door to door witnessing

    I think your karma ran over their dogma! ;)

    Scripture with Scripture

    I am thinking more along the lines of cooperation in what is received from God...revelation...prophecy..etc. We need to take an interest in the spiritual development of each person..with LESS emphasis on dogmatics. Some things can be learned along the way...why make somebody believe a creed...

    Deeper meanings in the Word

    Actually being a conqueror is not the same as just thinking you are. We are talking about the ability to see just how we're doing in truth...so we can get there.

    Israel is a miracle nation=God"s Eternal Chosen People.

    Israel is both a nation AND a congregation of the nations. Ge. 35:11 And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee (Israel), and kings shall come out of thy loins; In Hebrew it is Goy (nation) ou-kehal (and a church or...

    Tone

    The culture here has definitely improved since I was last on a number of years ago. The "likes" come flowing...whereas before they were stingy indeed.

    Self Knowledge

    You know, the writing on the archway that led to the oracle at Delphi in ancient Greece was...know yourself. There was some insight there.

    Self Knowledge

    You remember! :) A few years yes...I think 4 or so. Been doing very well. Hope that all is well with you as well.
  18. Episkopos

    Deeper meanings in the Word

    This is exactly right. We need to feel what others feel...and put ourselves in their place...even if it doesn't fit. I think we stand more of a chance to rise above the negatives in this way. And we can appreciate the troubles of others. If we look to understand others...then I think God will...

    Deeper meanings in the Word

    Amen. Too many people see themselves as the winners in every bible scenario...rather than trying themselves by placing themselves in every verse whether good or bad. I don't know how many people I have asked...do you see yourself as a possible failure (like one of the foolish virgins)...do you...

    Self Knowledge

    Know yourself. This is very important. When we fail even more than when we succeed, we are learning our limitations. A person that doesn't realize who he/she is can't see himself/herself properly in the word. Most people think too highly of themselves and a few have low self-esteem. But who sees...
