Sure it did, just so happens that they paid the price physically for their lie, just like David did with the death of his son and the sword in his house and just like the fornicator of Corinthians who was cut lose for the destruction of the FLESH so the spirit can be saved in the day of JESUS........no matter how you slice it and dice it you trust yourself over Jesus and you rely upon works over the faith OF Christ...good luck with that....you can plead your works, water and COC membership...I will plead the mercy and grace of God based upon the FAITH of JESUS....we will see at the end of the day!
God's grace does not automatically unconditionally cover sins, another phantom verse.

The Christian must conditionally repent to have his sins cleansed by the blood of Christ.

What phantom verse says impenitent Christians will be saved?

I think that there is ample evidence in scripture to conclude that neither Elijah nor Enoch ascended to heaven bodily, but that they both died physically.
with respect, i think you're pretty much wrong about that.

Not even close.

We're instructed to prove all things in scripture and that's simply what I intend to do.

Your nasty disposition...do you suppose that it comes from Christ?

It doesn't.

my nasty disposition? nah...you're just sour grapes who gets miffed when they get called out on their mission in life to straighten everyone out

you are trying to prove people's hearts...and THAT is why I am tapping you on the shoulder

one thing I don't have, fellah, is a nasty disposition....I am actually quite friendly, often funny and unlike some, I actually do care about people and I understand that while I can and should and do point out erroneous doctrine, I do not have the place to dig out their hearts and find them blacker them my own

we both know what I'm talking about...go and try your little interference lines in church and see how long it takes for the pastor to ask someone to speak to you or he may do it himself

Yeah no doubt...applied unto those who have rejected Christ and found under the condemnation of the law.....one of these days you will find out albeit too late......! ALL have SINNED and come short of the glory of God and if God should mark iniquity NONE WOULD STAND....I will take the place where God does not mark iniquity because EVERY SIN I HAVE committed or will commit have been NAILED to the CROSS when he became SIN for me so the RIGHTEOUSNESS of GOD can be applied unto me by FAITH......
So you are saying the Christian has been given a license to lie and that license keeps that lying, impenitent Christian from being lost?

Problem is there are a lot of people who believe the way you do, that they are eternally saved right at this moment.

The issue is though is that when judgement comes around some to most of them will be told by the Lord He never knew them because they continued to live a life of being unloving and uncaring toward others, and continued to live a sinful lifestyle because they trusted that only believing Jesus exists is enough.

Matthew 25:31-46 both the sheep and the goats believed in Jesus and called Him Lord, but only the sheep get eternal life because they did the will of God by walking in love and helping out others. The goats did not do the Fathers will and turned those away who needed help and therefore was sent to eternal punishment.

Matthew 7:21-23 Jesus shows the same thing that not everybody who calls Him Lord will get eternal life, only those who does the Fathers will in their life and turns away from their sinful ways.


Those who continue to sin willfully rather they call Jesus their Lord will not get eternal life do to their our right rejection of the Holy Spirit's guidance. These are the one's Hebrews says that trample on the blood of Christ and therefore do not receive remission but will face God at judgement and cast into the lake of fire.
Kenneth, I don't know if you know it or not, but you fell off my radar some time ago as your view lacks any real credence and or believability.....so......sorry, but your view means nothing to me and many here.....there are a few blind ones who agree with you, but for the most part...not many!

Romans 5:8

8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

What part of this verse don't you understand? It's not rocket science my friend!

Paul says when Christ comes again, those who are still alive will be changed in a twinkling of an eye. If our flesh was already purge completely of sin, then what change is needed?

Peter says when Christ comes, our corrupted bodies will be changed to uncorruptible glorified bodies.

I don't think you really understand the 2 ideas of sanctification. First we are sanctified by His blood, Christ stands in our place before the Father regarding our sins. He intercedes for us. Second, our soul is being continually sanctified from our fleshly desires, this is called spiritual growth, Paul calls this transformation, changing from glory to glory.


2 Corinthians 3:18 (NASB)
But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit.
Christ died for ALL sinners, does that mean ALL sinners will unconditionally be saved?

Or must sinners CONDITIONALLY obey Christ by believing repenting of sins, publically confess Christ and be baptized for remissionof sins to be saved?

For more clarification on my part:

1 Jn 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.


As long as the Christian CONDITIONALLY continues to walk in the light then Christ's blood continues to wash away all sins so one "slip up" will not cause the Christian to fall from as Christ as long as he CONTINUES to walk in the light.

If the Christian quits walking in the light altogether then any sin he commits will not be cleansed away by the blood of Christ leaving the Christian is a lost state with his uncleansed sins.
I understand what you're saying. Believe me, I've read I John and the rest of the Bible many times, so I know what God requires of us. It's mindboggling that some get so upset when others suggest that we're actually supposed to walk with Christ. If as previously lost sheep who had all gone astray we haven't returned to the guidance and leading of the good shepherd, then how in the world are we saved and what are we supposedly saved from if not our sins or our rebellion against God? Apparently, a lot of people refuse to consider what the Bible teaches in relation to actual belief. I don't intend to argue with them. I'll probably bow out of this discussion shortly as such conversations become more and more futile the longer they continue.

Thanks for clarifying what you actually believe. For whatever it's worth, you don't sound lost to me, even though another poster pronounced you as being the same earlier today. Of course, I'm not the final judge, but you sound like you want to serve Christ to me. May God bless you as you continue to seek Him and His ways.

I believe that we need to abide in the Vine Who is Christ in Whom is eternal life, just as the Bible teaches.
Amen, just as they taught saying....

2 John 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God.

Just so we know,

He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. (John 14:23, WE )

Just as Jesus had said no man comes to the Father but by me (John 14:6), So one must abide in the doctrine (which is teaching of Christ) as His doctrine was not His but God the Fathers (John 7:16)

So again...

2 John 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God.
He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

Then it follows saying this

2 John 1:10 If there come any unto you, and bring not (((((( this doctrine, ))))))
receive him not into your
house, neither bid him God speed:

2 John 1:12 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Notice how 2 John 1:10 follows after what he just stated about not having God?

I do not get what your saying. Both Elijah and Enoch died.
so do you think these two were beyond the reach of grace as well?

because you think the fact that Ananias & Sapphira died means they did not receive mercy?

their actions were plain, but i'll let it be to God to judge their souls. how could i dare to do otherwise? they were also counted among the believers, and doesn't God have the right to deal with His own without me whispering in His ear what He should do?

Again, what verse says God's grace unconditionally, automatically covers sins while the Christian not only remains impenitent but continues to live in his sins?

So every sinner that dies will receive mercy and be saved?

I wouldn't even bother responding....the bible is clear...ENOCH was translated that he should not see death is pretty clear!

So ALL liars, including Christians that lie but will not repent, will be in the lake of fire
or
has God made exceptions for Christian who lie but do not repent of their lying?

Actually, blasphemy of the H.S. is attributing the work of Christ to the power of the devil and is a permanent state of UNBELIEF which is why it is unforgivable........!

No that is only the watered down version of blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.
Apostle Paul clarifies in different epistles as well does Acts 5 show how this blasphemy is done. Unbelief is forgivable when the person comes to believe, as the man asked of Jesus in Mark 9:24 for he still could not do things that Jesus said because of his unbelief in that area.
If it was attributed to unbelief then none of us would have salvation because we all were in unbelief at one time in our lives, and even some to this day by what I have seen them say still have unbelief in some areas that needs to be prayed to God for help with. Such as those who deny the gifts and fruits of the Spirit that a true born again believer will have showing out in actions/speech/and works in front of others.

Apostle Paul and Acts shows lying to, denying His guidance, His gifts, and His fruits to not walk in them is all part of blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. For Paul says and shows that a person can not have eternal life when they are not walking by the Spirit......

Yes, we need not only abide in the doctrine of Christ, but in Christ Himself as well for it is impossible to abide in His doctrine without also abiding in Him.
