    Soul and Spirit

    Well Apak, if you check my post, I DID say that some believe the spirit is a part of the soul. YOU cannot say that my image is incorrect and/or not biblical because it has been taught to me and I in turn have taught it. PLEASE POST AN IMAGE OF WHAT YOU THINK WE ARE. Just like I posted an...

    My dear man, I asked you for scriptural support for your statement that IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO OBEY GOD. What you're posting above are verses about THE LAW. I've been thru these verses with you several times and will make no further comment on them except to say that you have NO UNDERSTANDING...

    Soul and Spirit

    What exactly is the problem with what I posted? Why confuse a Christian that is seeking to understand our make up? What do you mean we are a soul? Don't we have a body? Do we have a spirit? Are you a gnostic? Is your body separate from your soul/spirit? Must we argue about EVERYTHING? What...

    WHO were Messianic Jews at the time of Jesus? You mean Jewish Christians? Please provide scripture for Lazarus and the rich man. Do you mean Luke 16:28-31? How does that make your point? Luke 16:18-31 28for I have five brothers—in order that he may warn them, so that they will not also come to...

    If you give money to the poor it DOES sanctify you. Sanctify just means being set aside to do God's work. If you help the poor you are doing God's work...which is cooperating with Him and His plan for us. Your faith changes you on the inside. Your sanctification also changes you on the...

    Could you PLEASE show me where in Genesis Abraham was righteous with God WITHOUT works? Thanks.

    I guess @ScottA believes that the only way to be free is to not obey God. I wonder if that's what Jesus meant when He said He would set us free? I thought He meant from satan and his effects. Silly me.

    Dear Scott. I AM FREE. Do you realize that by your above reply to me what you're saying is that it is not necessary to obey God? You said obeying God IS NOT BIBLICAL. !! I said this: But, you know, I'd like to REMAIN saved all my life... and that requires obedience to God...so the answer then...

    Diagnosing Mother Teresa

    Agreed on all. I also expect more from priests and pastors, even though in my mind I know they suffer from the same weaknesses as all of us. But a myth to me means saying or believing something that is not real. MT really did do what is said that she did. What your saying is that she also...

    Wow. I'm not getting alerts! Saw this by mistake... It's not MY theology LC....I don't make up theology, theologians do that. I just listen and learn and read my bible and use my common sense and have learned from two mainline churches and agree with their teaching as to what salvation is. I...

    Please explain this.

    Didn't get an alert for this... I have a question to clarify.... You mean to be initially saved or do you mean to be saved all my life? To be initially saved, the answer is NO But, you know, I'd like to REMAIN saved all my life... and that requires obedience to God...so the answer then would...

    Hi Lady C, Good deeds are useless for salvation. God wants our heart. For sanctification...they ARE necessary. I agree that we WANT to do the best we can for ourselves, our family and others. But to say they are not necessary for sanctification shows that a person does not have a proper...

    Please explain this.

    S, I believe that if you check all my posts you'll find that I've NEVER said that we do anything of ourselves. We do what we do because we have the help of the Holy Spirit which Jesus sent to us when He ascended. Here's what bothers me... The following are my statements: 1. We must obey...

    Can Only Mods Solve This Problem?

    Really Helen,,,,I didn't know for about 2 pages, or more. I don't think his name was ever mentioned....Plus I don't go through whole posts like I know you do. They seem to go to fast. I see my alerts and I might see the one before mine or after mine and sometimes I'll make comments. You're...

    I didn't think so. His name was never mentioned. He has his right to believe as he will. I don't agree with him in many ways, but in other ways, I DO understand what he's trying to say. He's always answered my posts. Censorship is not good.
