You seem to like to put out these little innuendos without explanation (i.e. The Real Problem and this one above)

I believe I told you how I believed and do not really think I minced words doing it. However, it evidently hit a nerve.

The real problem is not grace believers going out and sinning like hell and feeling they are safe. That scenario happens once for every 100000 believers that sit on their holy hill and think they are better than that "sinner."......<<<<the real problem.

And No. I really don't think you minced words. It is pretty obvious that you think sinning to a bar/standard YOU have set, will cause a child of God to be sent to the LoF.

And you didn't hit a nerve. I have heard your argument 1000 times, and you have heard my argument a 1000 times.

Jesus finished the job with regards to our salvation. He was the final blood sacrifice and end of the first covenant.
Jesus lived under the oc and taught the oc because it was in place while he was alive. Once the price was paid at Jesus death the new covenant was in place. Anything from the book of Acts forward is nc teaching.
I like to focus on the teachings of Jesus Christ. He's our Lord.

We are definitely not to practice sin, the consequences for sin can be terrible for a Christian. However even if a Christian has sinned badly they can be forgiven if they repent. For an example we have the man who committed adultery with his fathers wife. When he repented he was received back into the church. Folks if we can't be forgiven of sins after we are saved then we are all doomed to the LOF.

Do as you like but you are doing so without understanding.
It would seem you have been taught that the books that come after Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John supersede what came before. It is time to stop believing your "teachers" and start believing your Lord, Jesus Christ.

If we notice......Paul handed him over to satan for his flesh to be killed and His spirit saved. Because He wasn't repenting. So he was going to be saved eternally without repenting.But his physical life was going to end.

It's 1 john 1:9 in action. name and site our sins to God and we will be restored to fellowship. If we don't............our flesh may be killed, but our Spirit is still saved.

Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. If you let yourself believe that the teachings of Paul, Peter, and the others who came after are of more value than the teachings of Jesus, or that the teachings of Jesus are no longer valid, then you will stray.

All the Bible's teaching is important. Taking in account context is more important.

This was done by a good friend of mine, and I love him dearly. (Even if he does harbor stupid thoughts about Trump.)

Be forewarned that Michael can be more than a bit colorfully graphic in his speech. Don't let his expletives throw you.

Galatians - Preaching Peace

There are four videos here (scroll down to find the first.)
Yes, an AnaBaptism view point. Know it well and even have several friends that are anabaptist, mostly Mennonites. it is an interesting religion.

That statement is correct to both godly men and Satan. So, the question is "Where do you find context?"

The only answer I can give is to follow the Holy Spirit and read the Bible over and over until it all comes together.

All context starts and ends with the revelation of the risen Christ Himself. All scripture must be filtered through the finished work of Christ in order to get the context needed when reading all scripture and this means the Lord's words too.

Jesus told the rich young ruler to keep the commandments to have eternal life but is that how we are saved today? No, Jesus used the Law to expose the ruler's need for a Savior because he loved money and had actually broken the 1st commandment.

Here is a scripture that says that if anyone who has ever sinned against God will be blotted out of the book. This means that all of us have been blotted out of God's book for who has not ever sinned? No one.

Exodus 32:33 (NASB)
[SUP]33 [/SUP] The LORD said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of My book.


This is a true statement but it is not the ultimate statement of truth because what Christ did on the cross and resurrection trumps this truth.

Everything in the bible is truly stated but not everything is a statement of ultimate truth.

We are as reliant on the Holy Spirit to reveal Christ in the scriptures to us as Mary was reliant on the Holy Spirit to conceive Jesus in her womb.

You must never let yourself believe that anything Jesus said is out-dated.

'Do according to what the Scribes teach, and not in accordance with what they do'. That is out-dated. It was true then but not now. Or do you follow Scribal teaching?

Jesus spoke to His own era as well as ours.

This is exactly the bewitching enticement designed to pedal to the vain thinking of men and bring them back into bondage.

There is a way that men think is right but it is the way that leads to death

Proverbs 14: KJV
12 "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death."

That is not outdated. Jesus was simply pointing out the scribes were hypocrites.

Do you also believe the teachings of Jesus, or some of them, are outdated? That would be a big mistake.
