I can see how some could easily take the 'dead by faith' bit and run with it...Paul himself spoke about taking grace as a 'licence for the flesh' to the fleshly Christian, and it always will be. The fleshly without a true heart for God-First, will always find an excuse for the flesh. When I...

@ScottA WOW!! Now I can see it!! Finally. ... :D That is awesome! When was it that God showed you this? I have never heard it laid out so clearly before!! THANK YOU. A certain person on this site accuses us all of not praising enough. If the truth that you have shared here is not a reason...

May God bless you and keep you safe. ✝️ Welcome to the Forum. :)

@mjrhealth .. @ScottA ... I must now sleep on this. I still can't see how I get to the place that I never again 'feel' the dead-weight of dragging around the old man. I can go weeks ignoring the old self, and " reckoning it dead" , then out of the blue I am conscious of the short...

:D Yes...I did just that! I even wondered how you did it...once when I was posting/quoting someone I looked to see if there was a font thing that did this, striking out.....but couldn't find one...I had hoped you'd know how you did it!

@amadeus Great post Amadeus! I too believe ( as you well know) in God being The Consuming Fire. Except I go one step further and believe that He burns up all that has nothing 'of Him'... Jesus says- " Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath...

@mjrhealth Thank you. I will add your post to my musings...I know the Holy Spirit will slowly drip it all into my spirit. Once God reveals things to me I have the "leaping" within, and then I know it has moved past my mind and right into my being, and become my very own 'solid belief...

There is a good new thread going now..I have learned a lot. It's called - 'As He Is' Very good...it is clearing up some things for me :) “As He Is”

I had edited and added more to the above Quoted post. While you were responding to mine! :)

Not long ago there was a long thread about the Trinity. I don't remember one post where people either didn't believe in God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. :) ( but different opinions about the doctrine of the trinity) Looks like this thread is going to end up as a 'look alike' thread.:D...

Im not saying that I have totally "got it yet"...but I can see the glimmer. I need to read this a couple more times and let the Holy Spirit fliter it into my belief system. If it is saying what I think it's saying...I like it. I just haven't made it "mine" yet. If it's truth, then my...

Haha! You must be kidding surely! God is a heart person...the intent of the heart is what He will way in the balances ....He alone sees the heart . Many may have messed up doctrine...but a genuine heart seeking after God. We shall see when God settles all issues. A man with pride in...

Paul met the Lord Jesus on the road. After that , Paul always spoke of Jesus Christ or Christ Jesus. Jesus was here just 33 years ....Christ Jesus is the glorified risen Lord. Who was, and is , and is yet to come. That still ruffles some Christian feathers. They still want the sandal...

AMEN. @lforrest ...good posts. Some read posts through the interlect, and some can read and hear 'the heart of the post',by the Spirit.

@bbyrd009 .....EXCELLENT post , two great illustrations!

@ScottA ..( I just read your post to @Netchaplain.) So you don't see the difference between sin , which is nailed to the tree = finished....and sins? So what was Paul saying when he said- "I die daily?" That sounds like a work of faith to me...it sounds like he was still very aware of...

Well the OP really spoke to me! @ScottA My old dad used to heavily lean on "position faith".. That is good...we need that..it is truth and a must....but it is also 'a work of faith' to continually- " reckon ourself dead indeed to sin" . The old man is always in our face clamouring for...

AMEN!!! :D :) ;)

As I read your post, that is what my mind went to..Rev 3 before I got to the end of your post and saw you referenced the overcomers. :) " 12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name...

Sorry, amen...we need those gentle reminders...I obviously get hoodwinked ad derailed too easily. Keep up the good work. Bless you.
