Fine. Great. The last line is: We MUST obey God. To say otherwise is not to be a saved Christian who obeys God because he knows God wants him to. Easy.

I understand more than you think...you should stop asking me if I understand things. What makes you think I BELIEVE I must keep the Sabbath? And if I did, I would. I don't know where you get your ideas from.

How many definitions could there be of good and evil?? Good is good. Evil is evil...we all know the definitions. I'm not sure why you posted this. Of course God is all good. Why else would John have said this after living with Jesus for over 3 years?

A deep subject indeed. I fear you did not understand my post. No problem.

Really. And since when do YOU make up your very own brand of Christianity? Did you bother to read the links I posted? Probably not....you'd find out that ... BELIEVE means OBEY. There's still time you know. You could still learn something new.

I have some sad news for you Stranger, and anyone else reading along who believes they are saved and are not required to obey the law.... God insists that we obey the law. Please show me a verse or two where Jesus advises us that it's OK not to follow the law. Thanks.

Yes. Not only were they the focal point of HOW we are to remain in the Kingdom of God, He preached about the commandments more than about salvation. Check please. Jesus spoke about being saved 4 or 5 times... He spoke about the Kingdom of God and how to belong to it about 100 times. You can...

As long as we keep them,,,

What makes you think I keep the Sabbath? And again, yes, the first four are not mentioned because they're covered by our love for Jesus. So because we love Jesus, it's not correct to say we must obey God?

We have to decide if God is all good or if there's some evil in Him. Then the question comes up as to how evil even got here. Are there two Gods?? (dualism). There can only be one God. So we're left with a real dilemma. If the sin nature was not instilled in man UNTIL Adam ate of the...

Great explanation...much better than I could ever do. Agreed on all.

Obedience is not "very important". It's required. No one I know of these days is under the law. If some want to comfort themselves by saying that they walk in the spirit, so be it. Walking in the spirit doe NOT mean we are not to obey the law. Paul said to walk in the spirit and you will not...

No Stranger. Believe does not mean believe. And therein lies the problem... Believe means to have faith... To have faith means to obey... In Mathew 28:20 JESUS tells His Apostles to teach all nations to observe what Jesus has commanded them... Jesus is saying we have to observe what He...

Are YOU not required to obey the law because you walk with God?

I don't listen to Phoneman or anyone....I have my own mind which I can use. And which homework are you referring to? The homework which makes my stomach turn to read about the accusations which are most probably correct since there are so many of them?j The homework that makes me understand...

Of course my motivation is keeping the law. Do YOU want to break the laws of God? But what IS the motivation to keep the law? Is it fear? Is it love? If someone loves God and keeps the law he is heaven-bound. If someone fears God and keeps the law he is heaven-bound. Love is better,,,but...

How do you know what I can distinguish? We're just not speaking the same language. Here: We are to walk in the spirit and not in the flesh. This means to walk with God and follow HIS ways instead of walking with the enemy who delights in our following him in the flesh. When we DO listen to...

Why do you hate the CC so much? Every church has it's problems with doctrine...do you know of a church that is perfect in its doctrine? I can't remember, I think I've spoken to you about this before... The CC is the ONLY church that can trace its roots back to the Apostles. This is a historical...

Great way of explaining this! Yes, of course I know the difference. But the New Covenant goes even further than that... The Mosaic Covenant did not give us the POWER to keep the commandments... they must still be kept, but now we have the power to keep them. I've often said that not only did...

Yes, I'm speaking about the second type of eternal security. The way Calvinists understand perseverance of the saints makes salvation impossible to know at any given point in time although most of them will refuse to understand this, or don't want to understand this. All because they refuse to...
