Totally!! Amen to that...he had it right for sure.

I do!! That was before that cross, before we were set free...before our redemption was bought and paid for. Sorry, I know I wont get many takers on that one! You are still as Peter using the mixture of old and new. And I do not expect you to agree. As I said somewhere, it is something God...

YES!! :D Iv'e tried to say that before....but you have said it better than I ever can. My " one liner" is always " On the last Day, God will "weigh" our hearts and motivation, and not our doctrine" ...which as you say...may have all the T's cross and I's dotted...but not a single clue about...

I did not know that. Well, I am glad that the Admin's and Mods are not heavy handed and they hold back on any control. ( I know a few Catholics, and can fellowship with them easy..I haven't met the "fighting mad" Catholics like on here before.) I have been on sites in the past where if you...

For the first time I think I am not totally with you on this one. Forgiven is forgiven. I DO agree with walking what we believe. And not taking grace as an occasion for the flesh. But once we start down the road of what we need to do..we will fall back into works. I have said before, so...

Yes...I 100% agree with that Job. Good...lets go and start a new denomination ...it's been a while since a new one cropped up...then we can discuss it with BOL :D Seriously..YES Amen. Those are the only "rules" to needed to get us from here...to the End. If we stick to those...we have great...

That caused me to look up the word Nation. Nation = a large aggregate of people united by common descent, ethnicfamily, history, culture, or language, inhabiting a particular country or territory. a member tribe of an American Indian confederation. A nation from Latin: natio, "people, tribe...

I just don't like what "Doctrine" has become. Scriptural or not, ..I now find that I do not like the words Religion OR Doctrine any more. They have become legalist control tools...and cause much more division than they do blessing!! Just my two cents.

I don't ever have to write any posts in this thread any more...all I have to do is click "like" on Scott's and your posts LOL :D How the thread went from "Can salvation be lost"...back to the Catholic v Protestant issue once again, I have no idea...but, fun eh?

Amen...love that...and that is "The bottom line!" ✟

I agree....but....I think the answer is 'we' have had our spiritual eyes opened to the truth of it..It didn't come to me in a moment. I was stuck in legalism for a long time....seeing beyond that's is a work of The Spirit. So I don't think they are choosing not to 'accept' , it is just a case...

Good post bbyrd009 ...agree, God does not help us with 'warm fuzzy feelings!' As the saying goes..forgotten the scripture reference LOL :D "Fake it until you make it.";) Interesting , because that is what I had to do too...exercise the will and bring it under.. ( as in the looooog post...

OH whoops..sorry that was such a long post...I don't like long post at all.:oops:

We all know the forgiveness scriptures , so no need to repeat them here. I haven't read bbyrd009 post yet...so I hope I'm not repeating what he has said. For myself....forgiveness was, and came hard. My childhood personality was somewhat dark. Yet when God got a hold of me He started...

:) Amen..good and clear post. Thank you.

Where I see the line drawn between law and works..is firstly Romans 7 and 8. Then from Galatians 4:21 "Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the...

I'm on my iPad so not easy to find scripture references etc ..I'll get back later if that's okay ..bless you....H

It sounds to me as if you are doing great. We fight, the old law tries to drag us back. We do have to remind ourselves that we are sons of grace. We do fine unless we think that "we are doing it" rather than God in us! I like Romans 7 and 8 ...I read it as Paul showing us in Romans...

To me, it is in believing we are still under the "do bad, get bad." Rather than instant repentance and walking clean and clear in The Light. ie..some gentiles believed that they needed to add Circumcision to their salvation....( to become fully saved) which is "adding to" the finished work...

I made a whoops there...I have edited it now..and put a NOT .. where was talking about the "good" side (to in our own eyes,like Eve- deceived ) of that Tree ...
