and on and on this discussion goes...
Romans 6:2-7 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
For he that is dead is freed from sin.
Thank you and may GOD the FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST bless you and all with HIS kindness and peace, dearly beloved crossnote, for your forbearance and support in the Holy Scripture quote and explanation again and again. i know how frustrating and discouraging this given duty and the reaction and respond we encounter is.
Please let us together not give up on GOD's lambs and sheep in reminding and stirring up their memory, like the Apostles did for CHRIST's through them churches, who were easily deceived by these false prophets, false teachers and false apostles, ignorantly allowing them to minister in their churches. They are also those who were with the Apostles, but now have gone ahead of them, bringing the early church those who babes in CHRIST, now a twisted Gospel, a slave themselves and to enslave those who have barely escaped, which differs from the initial Gospel preached by them.
It has been the same since then, many denominations and many servants of GOD worldwide.preaching Gospels. Lambs and sheep of GOD are confused, unable to listen to the voice of their MASTER. In humble and humility, by the Help of CHRIST and the HOLY SPIRIT, let us not weary in the flesh to give up but fight a Good fight and in perseverance.
Thank you and be blessed for LORD JESUS CHRIST sake and Good-by for now. And any mistakes committed to offend, i ask forgiveness, i am sorry and shalom may remain in you.
