Have fun trying to explain these scriptures away...

1 John 3:6
Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not

1 John 2:4
He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

1 John 1:6
if we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

1 John 2:1
I write these things unto you, that ye sin not


Apparently you believe 1 John 1:9 is not really true because if one confesses their sin God's Word clearly states that the Lord is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from ALL unrighteousness

So in your view the Lord does not actually cleanse us from ALL unrighteousness, right?
Not one of these verses are talking to a Born Again...

JOH 20:23 If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained."

ACT 7:60 Then falling on his knees, he cried out with a loud voice, "Lord, do not hold this sin against them!" Having said this, he fell asleep.



Context answers your question. Before he would baptize the religious leaders wanting FORGIVENESS/REMISSION of their sins. What did John say?

MAT 3:7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? :8 Bear fruit that befits repentance,

There are two different interpretations of this passage. The phrase could be read as saying that the Pharisees and Sadducees should do good works in order to be repentant. The other view is that good works are only an outgrowth of internal repentance as a fruit is the product of a healthy tree.

No.....not until they are Baptised in the Holy Spirit.
No scripture, just your opinion, which isn't just NON biblical it is ANTI biblical.

ACT 10:47 "Can any one forbid water for baptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?"

Same as your opinions everywhere.

There is NO forgiveness of sins...not until God drawss us to Jesus, brings us to repentance, brings us to Godly sorrow...then Baptism in the Spirit....all scriptural...correct me @Behold if I’m in error.

Anything else is a lie from the devil..

Also repentance comes before water baptism

Again anti biblical opinion. When are sins forgiven?

JOH 20:23 If you forgive the sins of ANY, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained."

ACT 7:60 Then falling on his knees, he cried out with a loud voice, "Lord, do not hold this sin against them!" Having said this, he fell asleep.

I’ve already posted when our sins are forgiven..read them, then look it up in scripture.

As i said, everything I posted is scriptural...do some studying/ research.

As a Born Again..imo, you should understand what the word Of God was saying through me.

That’s if you understand what is being said, in the above post..any problems ask me..and the Holy Spirit will give you the answer in scripture.through me, if it’s his will.

Here we go...first God draws us to Jesus..then what?

When we come to Christ we come because the Holy Spirit has drawn us to Him. We can't decide to get saved at a certain time in our life. The only way we are saved is when the Spirit draws us. “No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me, draw him: and I will raise him up, at the last day,” John 6:44.

Don't try to get mean with ME, you will lose. I'm "teaching a lie from the devil?" Who is the devil speaker in the verse below.

TIT 2:3 Bid the older women likewise to be reverent in behavior, not to be slanderers/diabolos or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good,

1228 diabolos:a traducer, spec. Satan

QUOTE me scriptures when I call out your opinion.

Firstly try and let go of your pride and ego..and I’m not being mean...I’m standing on God’s word.
You have taken completely out of context what I was saying ...we need to be drawn to Jesus by God..we are brought to repentance by God also Godly sorrow....then Baptism in the Spirit.

Anything than that is a lie....now prove God’s word wrong.

When we come to Christ we come because the Holy Spirit has drawn us to Him. We can't decide to get saved at a certain time in our life. The only way we are saved is when the Spirit draws us. “No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me, draw him: and I will raise him up, at the last day,” John 6:44...

Now, whose attacking?...using this scripture, for your own personal use....that scripture isn’t talking to me.

Grow up and walk in God’s Spirit...

[16] This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. [17] For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

ANTI biblical concerning your quoted verse. Do you know the difference between "the Father" draws and "the Holy Spirit"?

“No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me, draw him: and I will raise him up, at the last day,” John 6:44.

This is going no where with you, as before. I believe you are a believer. But I'm just going to let you and I find out in the hereafter who knew what they were talking about.

Every time you dialogue with me. I learn more ABOUT you than I ever do FROM you.
BYE BYE. :no reply:

The Holy Spirit/ God draws us to Jesus...correct.
“No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me, draw him: and I will raise him up, at the last day,” John 6:44.

I don’t need your affirmation that I’m a believer, thanks.by the way I’m a Born Again.....I’ve had that testified with our spirit that we children of God’s...he testifies with our spirit that we are his children....can’t get any better than that..
So why not try and discuss in the Spirit, .?
Every time you dialogue with me. I learn more ABOUT you than I ever do FROM you.
I sincerely hope you aren’t learning anything from me.....you should be learning from the Holy Spirit who indwells you...,you know that right?

Only the Holy Spirit can open our hearts to understand his word....

What a shame..and no proof that what I posted was not God’s word...

We should be learning together should we not....?or is it only “ YOU” that knows God’s truth?

And here we go again..you always get personal...did you know that?

@Hillsage ..Got explains it well...

ANSWER


The clearest verse on God’s drawing to salvation is John 6:44 where Jesus declares that “no one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.” The Greek word translated “draw” is helkuo, which means “to drag” (literally or figuratively). Clearly, this drawing is a one-sided affair. God does the drawing to salvation; we who are drawn have a passive role in the process. There is no doubt that we respond to His drawing us, but the drawing itself is all on His part


Hope that makes sense to you...it does to me.

That's just what your cherry picker handlers have been lying to you about.

They'd say the same about this one too.

Ephesians 5:3-7
But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
Be not ye therefore partakers with them.


The OSAS doctrines the Cherry Pickers espouse is all vain words, vain jangling used to tickle people's ears to believe they can live in sin and still be saved... even going so far as to live in sin and claim they have no sin as though their body sins, but they don't

That ain't nothing but a hot, stinky, steaming pile of gnostic horse hockey! laughing6.gif

Ignore God's warnings at your own peril homie!

John the Baptist was the forerunner of Christ.
He had only the law, as means of repentance, to exhort the ppl, not grace.

Therefore the baptism he required was the act of cleansing before Christ was revealed & completed the work of God.
The fruits meet to repentance were of such as making right with your neighbor, paying your debts to family, society, & God, ect as required by law.

After Christ sacrifice, resurrection & ascension we must be baptized by the word & the Spirit to be in right standing with God. We must have our sins covered in his righteousness, forsaking the habits of the flesh. Pressing ever towards the mark, laying aside the sins that weigh & beset us.

Do we still act on our habits of flesh at times? The word says as has been stated to say we are incapable of sin is calling him a liar, but having an advocate in Jesus we confess, repent and turn away from such, rather than cover it !

Not one of those scriptures are talking to a Born Again....Not One.

You imo/ belief..don’t understand what being birthed in the Spirit means...it’s the Living word of God.

A Born Again...can NEVER in a million years, be un- Birthed...or lose their salvation...the Baptism in the Spirit is permanent.

Repeat...I don’t believe you understand what it means to be Born Again.

You are repeating your own head knowledge..none of which refers to a Born Again...

That scripture is not speaking to a Born Again.

As for cherry picking.

You have dismissed all God breathed scripture that many Born Again members have submitted for you to read...


God tells the truth and keeps His promises.​

Titus 1:2 “In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;”

Belief births you into God’s family.​

John 1:12 “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:”

Jesus promised you would not perish.​

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

You are not condemned (reserved for destruction).​

John 3:18 “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

You currently have everlasting life.​

John 3:36 “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.”

You passed from death unto life.​

John 5:24 “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”

Jesus will not cast you out for any reason.​


John 6:37 “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.”

Jesus knows His sheep.​

John 10:27 “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:”

Jesus gave you eternal life.​


John 10:28 “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.”

You are in Jesus’ hand and no one can get you out.​

John 10:28b “neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.”

The Father placed His hand over the Son’s and no one is more powerful than Him.​

John 10:29 “My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.”

The combined strength of God the Father and God the Son is protecting your soul.​

John 10:30 “I and my Father are one.”

Jesus promised that you would never die.​

John 11:25–26 “Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?”

God is your Father.​

Romans 8:15 “For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.”

You are two-fold the Child of God; by birth and by adoption.​

Romans 8:15 “For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.”

The Holy Spirit bears witness with our spirit reminding us that we are saved.​


Romans 8:16 “The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:”

God is the Judge of the soul and He already gave you His verdict.​

Romans 8:31–33 “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth.”

Jesus Christ is at the right hand of the Father making intercession for us.​

Romans 8:34 “Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.”

Nothing can separate you from the love of Christ.​

Romans 8:35–39 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

You are a new Creature.​

2 Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”

You are made righteous in Christ.​

2 Corinthians 5:21 “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”

You are sealed with the Holy Spirit.​

Ephesians 1:13–14 “In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.”

You are saved by grace through faith not by works.​

Ephesians 2:8–9 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

You are kept by the power of God.​

1 Peter 1:5 “Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”

You are a citizen of Heaven.​

Philippians 3:20 “For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:”

You are seated in Heavenly places.​

Ephesians 2:6 “And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:”

Have you ever noticed that folks often twist or omit what was written TO BELIEVERS in the church .
Rather odd indeed. My advice is , SINCE THOSE Letters were written to the CHURCH , then the CHURCH should
simply have HEEDED THEM , learned from them and not tried to say things like OH that is only for unbelievers .
Lambs gonna cling to ER word and not pick and choose what to apply to us and what to make void . Lambs simply
EAT of the words of TRUTH . Pretty simple if you ask me . But men do as men do and men will twist as men do twist .
Lambs just EAT of the words .

The letters from the aposltes were written to the church . My advice , therfore is that we heed them and learn and grow .
Yes, brother. I love the way ppl dissect the word of God to the church, the body & bride of Christ; to say what is NOT written to the believers. Lol
It is written to the church, believers & those whom call upon his name to be SAVED!

There is but one word i would change in that statement . love to hate . cause i hate the way folks twist those scrips unto
their own destruction . OH i knew what you meant my dear sister . But man its an all out assualt against THE WHOLE TRUTH
these days . Peter wrote a real simple warning . As they do other scrips , aka they wrest them , unto their own destruction .
March on in the trenches sister . ITS GONNA get far worse and very fast too .
Many now rise in unison as one . AND IT AINT UNDER GOD either . Delusion and error leadeth and has led
to THE ULITIMATE LIE OF DELUSION . Soon it will be seen as even hate speech to try and say JESUS is the only way
that one must believe on HIM to be saved . OH yes , this will grow big time . as has the dark rainbow and other things .
