Entire Sanctification = "In Christ"

[marks]

This is my solace @marks, a daily yielding, a daily renewing of the mind, a daily surrendering.
Accumulative head knowledge is not going to work, it is a utter yielding and reposing in union with Christ through the energetic work of the Holy Spirit, bringing about victory, daily.

Yes, I fully agree! For me the head knowledge is useful to bolster my conviction that this is truth, but the reliance and rest that brings victory is a matter of choosing to trust Him.

"be transformed" Believers must be transformed (cf. Rom. 6:4; 7:6; 2 Cor. 5:17; Gal. 6:15; Eph. 4:22-24; Col. 3:10), not just informed! The grammatical form of this term can be

PRESENT MIDDLE IMPERATIVE, "continue to transform yourselves"
PRESENT PASSIVE IMPERATIVE, "continue to be transformed"
This is also true of "conform" in Rom. 12:2a
For a similar contrast compare Ezek. 18:31 (human commitment and action) with Ezek 36:26-27 (divine gift). Both are needed!

On this part, I know that "be not conformed to this world", that conformed is deponent. I had understood that "be ye transformed", that transformed is passive, but that's not correct? It's also deponent?

Thanks brother, the more I post Scriptures, the more it is internalized and committed to memory.

Amen!

Much love!

Does my behavior change the word of God @MatthewG ?

Does the unbelief of the unsaved void the gospel?

I think he's just asking if you apply the same standard that you put on everyone else to yourself.

Much love!

I very much do.

But it’s not a hard task if you keep your eyes on the prize.

“I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 3:14)

I think to a lot of people you come across otherwise. As if you aren't still "pressing toward the mark", having arrived.

Much love!

From my Mounce Bible- transformed -the deponent is passive, however in context, it can be Middle or Passive as it is on US to not be conformed to this world, on Us to constantly renew our minds.

Unless I have missed something brother, I am whacked, dead-tired.

I know you put a lot into this stuff, and I appreciate it!!

I don't have an issue either way, really, if passive, I know God is working in us. If middle, I know we are commanded to put off, and put on, and to work out what He works into us, things like this, which clearly show we have a part.

Much love!

OBEY THE SPIRIT . And heed not the flesh . Now lift those hands up and let all that draws breath praise n thank the LORD .

I am gonna try and use imperative in a sentence .
IT IS DIRE IMPERATIVE for the peoples to repent and come to CHRIST
IT is dire imperative for many sold out churches to repent of the one world religion and its all inclusive lie .
FOR it is DIRE IMPERATIVE that we FOLLOW CHRIST . Hope i used imperative right in those sentences .
I suppose i could say DIRE NEEDFUL .

Yes Sir! Lol!

Our Lord of the Imperatives! You said it well my brother in Christ. A Military command, to be promptly obeyed, no questions asked!

 

[amigo de christo]

Our Lord of the Imperatives! You said it well my brother in Christ. A Military command, to be promptly obeyed, no questions asked!

If GOD says , the response it , INSTANT OBEDIANCE TO HIS DIRECT ORDERS . FOLLOW HIM . HIS SPIRIT ,
HIS EVERY WORD to be loved and obeyed and embraced .
INSTANT OBEDIANCE TO THE LORD . HE IS WORTHY OF ALL HONOR , ALL GLORY , ALL PRAISE , ALL Exaltation
Let all that has breath both praise and thank the glorious LORD .
A lamb should love the LORD so much
that if GOD were say to JUMP , IT WOULD JUMP and then in mid air ask HOW HIGH . YEP .
LOVE THE LORD THY GOD ABOVE ALL . HE who LOVETH CHRIST LOVETH GOD .
HE who obeys CHRIST obeys GOD .
You can visualize that if you want . IF GOD says JUMP , dont even ask how high , JUST LEAP and THEN ask him in mid jump
how high . And if he answer , KICK SO HARD at the air you actually raise up . IF that were possible .
GOD SHOULD have been honored with such great love . THINK DEEPLY on all that HE has done .
HE should have been obeyed , aka loved by the lambs . TO HE we owe all .
ITS AN UTTER abomination to watch so many folks trod obeidance to GOD under foot and make excuse .
We should have LOVED the GLORIOUS LORD . FOR HE FIRST LOVED US .

 

[MatthewG]

Rather odd paul often used scripture to CORRECT the Churches he wrote too .
USE SCRIPTURE and DO SO OFTEN .
Whether they hear or forbear . Its on them . I dont pander to the world to win the world .
SPEAK TRUTH and who so ever hears amen and who so ever forbears , ITS ON THEM .

Just know your place and understand youre not Paul.

 

[amigo de christo]

Just know your place and understand youre not Paul.

No i am not paul . but rest assured had i been in his time and the churches
HE would have been writing to me as he was to them . REMINDING THEM to rebuke those who do sin
that others may fear . SO yeah , I know i aint paul . BUT we were supposed to have matured
up and help the church pard . Correction is not sin . to expose error and sin within brethren is NOT SIN .
To rebuke is not sin . To even cast out is not SIN . WE MUST DO as THEY TAUGHT US TO DO .
NEVER forget that . OH wait , you already have . I read one of your posts and how you view the bible .
SHOULD NEVER have went down that road mathew . BUT , i came not to condemn you ,
thus i am here to correct you and that mindset you seem to have about the bible . SEE
i aint condeming you or i would have said , TOO LATE FOR YOU MATHEW BURN
BUT i simply said REPENT OF IT . see the difference . correction IS GOOD and its needful for us all .
That we do take heed to THE WORDS of THE ONLY HOLY GOD and HIS CHRIST and HIS BOOK known as the bible .

@amigo de christo is the "real deal" brother, you will come to know him, always encouraging, pointing others, not to himself, but to Christ, not one inch of pride in his heart-go easy on him @MatthewG since he is not trying to be like Paul and he knows his place.
Friendly, brotherly advice-I could have come down hard on you, I didn't.

 

[MatthewG]

You do what you gotta @amigo de christo leave me out of it. Thank you.

@Johann i dont hate the guy, or look at him as less than.

Its important to never Lord over someone.
