Actually here are the 4 marks of the true church... Act 2:42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. Following religious clerics who wear nice garments is not the same as walking in the power of the Holy Spirit. The...

Was God also under the Mosaic law??? I think you are a closet dispensationalist at times D. I will have to only cite scriptures BEFORE Moses so that you don't jump to the same conclusion all the time. You fail to understand that God's ways have never changed. Of course....but you are looking...

There is only one Mediator between God and men...Jesus Christ. I am an ex-catholic in that I was raised Catholic...but in ignorance of God like 99.9 % of Catholics. Can you say Tradition!!!! The Lord called me to repentance and baptism in the Spirit in the solitude of my apartment. The RC's...

A God-fearer was was a class below proselyte. Someone like the centurion would be seen as a God-fearer. Many of the new disciples were drawn from Gentile God fearers in the synagogues. This of course enraged the Jews. Luk 7:2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was...

You understand neither the righteousness of God nor men. Do you think the publican who went to his house justified before God also was holy, sanctified and glorified???

Haz, you don't know the scriptures to ask this. Eze 18:27 Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive. Eze 18:28 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions...

No ....there is no longer a difference between Jews and Gentiles...the temple holiness has been abolished with the coming of Messiah and true holiness. I was speaking from the Jewish point of view. Correct! They did have a catagory of Gentile God-fearers....who would be seen as righteous but...

This is way off...the thief on the cross was barely saved...by the skin of his teeth. He turned at the last possible moment to do what was right and was accounted righteous for it...certainly not holy!!!!

This is a good picture. But the conclusion is wrong. There is no warning in this picture...just a warm fuzzy feeling that lulls people to sleep. The people that continue in the outer court will be rejected. Those who remain in the holy place but refuse to be fully consecrated will never see...

The glory of Judaism is the Torah and the laws it contains....they are the people of the Book (bible). This law demarcates them as holy and distinct from all other people. All others (Gentiles)are seen as lawless and lost. NOT holy! Becoming Christian does not mean we join them (the Jews) in...

We are saved before we die in order to be discipled. There is no salvation on the shelf. There is no burying this salvation for future use. If we do not surrender everything to Christ then we will have our salvation (talent) revoked and be kicked out of the kingdom. All this hijacking of the...

I don't prefer the ESV...but in the case of this verse it shows the proper emphasis. I read the KJV the same way...but it coiuld be open to a wrong interpretation is all. We are to live in the life that the blood of Christ paved the way for. So our emphasis is always on the life. The same goes...

Yes..Romans 4 is about the unnecessariness of circumcision to be children of Abraham. The law of circumcision to be God's people was a sign that originated by the faith of Abraham. So Gentiles don't need circumcision for justification...just the same quality of faith as Abraham.

We are not seeking to be made righteous by our own power or strength.....but in the Lord's power. This is a higher law...the law of holiness in the life of Jesus. We are learning to abide in Christ in all circumstances...even walk in a total consecration. Sin is just an indicator that we are...

Circumcision

Yet you stand firmly behind a daily...sin repent sin repent sin repent? .

How do you know that your faith in His completed work is acceptable to God?

Yes! The whole fallacy is based on a man declaring himself righteous before God because he has read some verses. A clearer case of self-righteousness cannot be found.

Concerning coming in and out of Zion in Christ....do you live in a house? Do you ever leave that house? Are you living in and out of your house? It takes great faith to enter into Christ...it takes faithfulness to remain. If our faith /faithfulness is found wanting for whatever reason...we...

The knowledge of the truth is the doorway to the righteousness of God. We know the truth and it sets us free...this freedom is found within the righteousness of God. We have covered this before... a person who is not able to hear the gospel cannot reject it. While there were righteous among...
