    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    well if you look at it that way. But it is a gift. Again, if it cost something, it is a wage. a good way to look at it, is your pride is costing you from receiving the gift.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    that is what is so precious about the gift our savior is offering. We are said it is an unperishable gift.. It will never fade away. and no one can take it away from us. when we think of the cost if Jesus hanging on that cross. many people believe today, and our gift he offers based on this...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    I see it we need to first be adopted into Gods family. Then he will lift us up and tell us all how special we are to him.. Now matter what others may think on earth, or what we think of ourselves.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    there is a cost to entering the kingdom It was paid for by Christ on the cross. Religion says we must earn it by paying for it. So while attacking others as being religious. You ignore the fact you yourself are trying to get to God through religion.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    dreams and visions can come from god, or they can come from satan and his demons. we should never use dreams or visions as proof we are saved.. If we have not been born again, all the dreams and vision in the world will not make us saved.

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    Pride, As roman's 1 says I think to John 3 where Jesus said as moses lifted the serpent. so must the son of man be lifted. If we go back to the story (numbers 21) . God brought the children of Israel to a spot where they had to pass through a bunch of serpents. and they would get bitten and...

    How are we to reckon ourselves as being dead to sin?

    I also think it was the flesh life. The life is decaying as we start to live in christ who lives in us.. As he grows us or sanctifies us.
