You are yourself a sinner...where's your grace grace grace???

I hope the message you hear is confirmed by what God is calling you to.

You are choosing your own instructions...hardly the way to grow beyond your present place. God uses living people too. I am only pointing out the other verses that you have not yet incorporated into your life. Of course you are already comfortable with the verses you have selected for your...

Heb_12:11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. Righteousness is a fruit that comes out of the crucifying of the self life....and the putting on of...

Yes...but we are a mixture of the old and the new....until we go to the cross. It is what you speak of that keeps us alive through the crucifying of our old natures. So if you have faith in God....trust Him to finish the work He has started in you. Rom_6:19 I speak after the manner of men...

I'm trying to get you to see that you lack the full understanding of the gospel...that is why the verses that I point out to you sound so foreign. Most of the bible makes no sense (too complicated) when one is trying to make do with a partial understanding. What is missing is the actual laying...

Are you exhibiting this love???

:)

Yes...beware the "quick fix". Beware the spirit that coddles you. The Father treats His servants hard in order to break down the outer man...THEN He is gentle. Those He loves He rebukes and chastens...even whipping them for their good.

You are fighting the wrong people. We are trying to help you get back onto the road that leads to life.

You can only understand what Jesus is talking about AFTER you go through the cross experience. Before that you need to have faith and trust God that He will not kill all of you...just kill the parts that cause you to sin thereby soiling your garments.

This is what I have been saying to you. You need to die in the natural man in order to be raised up in the new man in Christ. In the old nature we are powerless to stop sinning. But when that man is dead we can be grafted to the life of Christ so that it is His life and nature we are living...

Why is it so difficult to see that there is a mixture in the churches...there are many rebellious ones who refuse to lay down their lives to die with Christ so as to be raised with Him in newness of life. There are both tares and wheat. The tares will be burned and the wheat gathered to the...

You are confusing the law with the process of salvation by going to the cross to have the old man put down. Only then can we walk in the actual power of Christ that we have received at the new birth. The cup must be emptied before it can be filled again.

Dave, you have gone off half-cocked thinking that God is finished with your discipleship whereas in fact you have not started to be discipled yet. You are claiming to be rich because of grace...but you are given grace as a means to produce DEATH first in you. The grace is your life support...not...

Hi Rach! What we have begun in the Spirit must also be continued in the Spirit. The entrance to the kingdom is narrow...but so is the way. Mat_7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. This distinction takes away any...

Brother you should be called Barnabas...(son of encouragement) :) Peace in Christ...

Pro_20:11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right. One has to be blind to not see this for what it is...How many can see that this is a man imputing righteousness on himself for his own beliefs????

Exactly!!! How could a truly righteous man accept the drivel that is preached from the pulpits of today??? Of course many true children of God also go to the churches...but can they remain there and NOT be affected negatively by the subtle message that encourages the natural man to rejoice in...
