As I said, you have scripture for this? Isa 41:10 is not only not on the same page as this, it is not in the same galaxy...
Isa 41:8 But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.
Isa 41:9 Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called thee from the chief men thereof, and said unto thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away.
Isa 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
Isa 41:11 Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.
Isa 41:12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.
This is the restoration of Israel during the Millenium.

know what i'll show you a conversation i had with one of my adventist friends in real life and what he said on fb "
- but this is what the holy spirit does
hear me out
we don't actually receive it until we trust in god with faith
in our hearts
jesus died for our sins yes
but people still living in sin until they actually believe it with their hearts that he did it for us..
but what happen to me recently was a calling from god
so i can do the right thing
i never expect nothing like that in my life
that's why it's impossible for humans to follow the laws of the bible
without christ
literally in is
i use to thought christianity was just going church and praising god
but i didn't know it was more than that until i experience it
and the serious question i was gonna ask you
how does some1 know they are saved

_____________i guess u freaking dont no one is perfect
J
that's why christianity is based on faith i guess you don't have that your one of those " seeing is believing" when listen up unless you changed that you will end up somewhere you don't desire to go in the end if jesus explained what the infilling suppose to feel like people would expect WHAT TO EXPECT, if he did that THEY WOULD BE NO NEED FOR FAITH BECAUSE EVERYONE WILL KNOW HOW TO GET SAVED. HAVE A NICE DAY SIR, I'M TOO FRUSTRATED TO DEAL WITH THIS NOW.
lol, really?
have you read this?
"So it is clear that no one can be made right with God by trying to keep the law. For the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.”This way of faith is very different from the way of law, which says, “It is through obeying the law that a person has life.”But Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When he was hung on the cross, he took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”Through Christ Jesus, God has blessed the Gentiles with the same blessing he promised to Abraham, so that we who are believers might receive the promised Holy Spirit through faith."
Galatians 3:11-14
even our good works are "filthy rags"
Isaiah 64:6
we are saved through Grace "lest any man should boast"
Ephesians 2:8-9
& "no flesh is justified by the law" !!
Galatians 2:16

i know because i have believed, and i trust the one that i have believed in is able to do what He has promised.
i might add, that no one is able to say that He is Lord without the Spirit, and that by saying my hope is in Him, this is exactly what i have done -- but not "i" but the Spirit in me that testifies to this.
you're right too!

He didn't he filled it for us, and this included the greatest of Law which is love, and Love is from the start.
Coming from flesh standpoint, born from the womb here on earth, man tries to do what is right and can't, for he is not perfect.
This is very clear form Christ when he walked earth.
He sais it straight out to the disciples it is impossible for man to enter Heaven by doing what is right, unless he cuts off the members that cause him to sin.
You see coming from the flesh standpoint, man can't be perfect and this is clear inn Matt 19, concerning the rich man.
His Job was to show us all our inability to be perfect and thus know we need a new life, and this life is in the Spirit of God, not flesh, flesh reckoned dead by the death of Christ, free choice.
When you are done trying to be perfect and this with God's help, ready to give up, seeing you can't, please then turn to God and say I need life to God new life.
John 3:6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.
Before the cross flesh, after the cross Spirit of God, new life in the resurrected Christ. First though flesh need to die with Christ's death
[h=3]Philippians 3:10-11[/h]New International Version (NIV)
[SUP]10[/SUP]I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, [SUP]11 [/SUP]and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead.

Jesus is the one who said this that it is impossible for man, and if man wishes to, okay, then if: the below verses are the requirements then:
[h=3]Matthew 5:27-29[/h]New International Version (NIV)
[h=3]Adultery[/h][SUP]27 [/SUP]“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ [SUP]28 [/SUP]But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
[SUP]29 [/SUP]If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell
Matthew 5:30
And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.
Matthew 18:8
If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire.
It is very clear to me, that since I can't be perfect, and neither can anyone else, or Christ came in vain. being in and of flesh, that if I want to enter heaven through the Law, I would have to go as a torso. All my limbs cut off and thrown away.
Or I could trust and believe God that while I, we all, were still sinners. Christ being the only one that never did sin.
Praying for you to see the war, between flesh and Spirit of God
Galatians 5:16 [ Walking in the Spirit ] I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.
The above is why it so important to consider self dead to Flesh Spirit, by the crucifixion of Christ, being co-crucified with Christ in order to see the new life in the Spirit of God via the resurrection
All in love to all

- Romans 5:8
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
- Romans 8:34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.
- 2 Corinthians 5:14
- For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died.
Colossians 1:22 - in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight—
Who does Christ present us Holy to? By his death he has cleansed you, me and all who believe
So what is next after death. I see it as victory
Hebrews 2:14 - Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil
So through Christ's death, victory for you, me and all that believe yes?
John 11:25 - Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.
So if you believe you are dead to self by the death of Christ, do you think you might experience the resurrection here and now? Is it possible?
Could this be what Christ meant when he said with man it is impossible, but with God all things are possible? Could it be Christ was talking about the resurrection? Where by it we get new life in God's Spirit, where thus we can worship God in Spirit and truth as is the only way today God can be worshipped?
- John 4:23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.
- John 4:24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
- John 14:17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.
- John 16:13 However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.

Homward,, if it is impossible to Obey God,, why did God punish Adam? Either you are wrong,, or you have to admit that God is an exacting tyrannt that is evil. Because someone that punishes another person for somthing they cannot help,, is evil and mean.
So,, if we cannot keep Gods Law,, why did God punish Adam? Is God just mean,, like a drunk father that beat his children and his wife?
No flesh is justified period, except Christ Jesus, the only flesh ever accepted by God and by his death brought in te New covenant, new Priesthood and new Laws of the Spirit , enabling us to Love as God Loves
Hebrews 9:15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.
Hebrews 9:16 [ The Mediator’s Death Necessary ] For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
Hebrews 9:17
For a testament is in force after men are dead, since it has no power at all while the testator lives.
Hebrews 7:11
[ Need for a New Priesthood ] Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?
Hebrews 7:12 For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law.
