I tire of this discussion. Go ahead and do what you want to. Don't read the N.T. Don't obey God. Don't do any good deeds in His name. Sin all you want to. Claim righteousness by your own standard. Believe the flesh is dead... or alive...whatever makes you happy. Just ignore ALL that God said...

You're entitled to your opinion. Abraham was RIGHT WITH GOD...Righteouis....the moment he HEARD GOD, and obeyed Him. This was a sign that he was saved and in communion with God. This happens in Genesis 12:1 If you believe it happened in Genesis 26... well, you believe more in works than I do.

Every conditional covenant had blessings and curses.

Apparently, you really don't understand what repent means. If you did, you'd know we're on a journey.

Sure. I think I said that we need to confirm everything by SIMPLY reading the N.T., in its entirety.... By simply, I mean the clear words and not attempt to change them,,,as is done many times. If I didn't say it.... I'm saying it now. Men's rules change over time. Their doctrines change. It...

LOL I'm ALWAYS RIGHT!! :) Sometimes I'm told MY theology is wrong. I reply that I don't make the theology... theologians do. I learned from two different churches. I've been able to find only one doctrine to be not so biblical with one of them. As to the other....they believe some doctrine...

Believe what makes you happy. Jesus said.... BUT I TELL YOU That means... 1. He's correcting something. 2. He did Not write what He's correcting.

Petra means a big rock. Petros means a small Rock. Petra is feminine, and the name Petros is masculine... A play on words.

Yes. I know about the play on words... This is always taken into Consideration. Did you ever study this?

You never get to your destination... unless you make the journey.

This is correct. If we read Exodus we find conflicting verses. One says that P had hardened his own heart. One says that God hardened his heart. It reminds me of Romans 1 or 2? where God says that He gave them over to their own lusts. IOW,,, God gave them what they wanted. And yes, God will...

I know. Theologians know this too. There is doubt. I'm not saying that Peter is the ROCK. Jesus is the Rock. But when Jesus said "and on THIS ROCK"... was He referring to Himself...? Or pointing to Peter and meaning HIM? Catholics say it's Peter Protestants say it's Jesus because we love to...

cont'd I have lost count of the number of times I have actually been attacked by professing believers when I make the simple – and fully biblical – point that true saving faith is also an obedient faith. One cannot claim to be a believer in Christ if one fails to obey Christ. Christ in other...

Sorry JBF, I just saw this. All of the above shows that if we believe in someone we obey what they tell us to do. I've been told on this very thread that it is not necessary to obey God. You might like reading this: John 3:36... He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does...

Yes, well, you know the problem with John 6:47... Apparently you like to repeat without moving forward. That verse does not work. And I've told you why.

I agree. No use to get into the Greek language here,,,or hardly anywhere. I think the translators did a good job of it..even though they did make some mistakes. But nothing that changes the message of the N.T. How could you say that you can't imagine saying NO to God? As you well know....we've...

Wow. I gave you a like for the effort which I truly appreciate. I'm going to read this again later. Don't really understand. Maybe I'll even study it a bit... Interesting.

You should keep to discussing scripture and stop with the personal comments. It's very unbecoming of a grown man. John 13:35
