How are we informed how to keep?.How is the work keep defined by the scriptures? It is where the Judaziers usually become silent.

Can you keep them without stumbling in the least of all the commandments as did Christ? Have you received your new incorruptible body. Remember if you violate one you are already considered dead, according to the eternal never to rise to new spirit life wage of the least of any sin .Have you sinned today?

Keep is not defined as kill if one violates one law. God is a God of mercy with him there is more than enough forgiveness its why we do fear Him. He forgives every sin and continues cleansies us from self righteousness.

Who cleanes you from self righteousness?

You have much greater problem to worry about.

Never seen anything this, by my morbid curiosity ...I took one peak.... and this is what I read that the death of Christ was wasted on us.

I have no words:(



its almost laughable, the biggest haters of the thread keep it open by continuing to respond in it.

This thread has hit rock bottom, that's for sure, the arrogance, pride and works of the flesh in the name of God are evident,

it is also evident that some people will never learn, and all they wish to do is bellitle, attack, and slander others,
Really EG
You shouldn't speak about yourself in such a denegrating way!

You understand plenty the opposite of scripture!
It's rather frightening to know you teach humans.
I'm sorry for them.
You're out of line. Extremely.

You're coming off as very prideful.

If you don't think you have things to learn, like the rest of us, then why are you here?

Your Scripture "knowledge" was given to you by God, was it not? So why do you hold yourself against other people.

Try this Scripture on for size:

1 Co 4:
6I have applied all these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, brothers,[SUP]a[/SUP] that you may learn by us not to go beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up in favor of one against another. 7For who sees anything different in you? What do you have that you did not receive? If then you received it, why do you boast as if you did not receive it?

And yes this is for me also. And also for others who puff themselves against one another.

Sadly you will not find that in BDF, you will find people who tell what they believe, speak of their love for God, then the real self comes out the moment someone disagrees with them.


Oh EG sweetie

That's not true.
You told me many nasty things when I first got here a long time ago.

Look how much patients I exhibited!
You should appreciate it.

I think it is time that ignore the troublemakers, there are enough people here who want to discuss, even things they disagree, let the kids act like kids. But it is time to stop feeding hem.
But cutie...
Didn't you have me on ignore?
See.
You can't resist me.

Yes, some people hate the message of this thread, that Jesus is the author and finisher of one's salvation, freely given to those who believe, never to be forsaken or taken back.
Whoa!!!
Not one sentence with the truth!
Get yourself to a good church.
You might learn something!

The same person who is flooding the thread, that is why I looked to see why one post after another.

She also said I am not fit to teach humans....I guess I could go teach animals...I do love animals LOL

Maybe I could become a dog trainer:)

I am almost afraid to ask who said that?

It's a dangerous place to be when we can't accept correction.

Scriptures says, God resists the proud.

I'm not perfect, but I always seek to accept correction, looking at myself, apologizing when needed, and repenting if necessary.

Like Paul says, we must pursue peace with all men, as much as possible.

This Scripture feels fitting right now:

Galatians 3:
2Let me ask you only this: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law or by hearing with faith? 3Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?

The Law doesn't empower us to walk out the fruit of our message. Only the Spirit does. And we receive His empowerment through faith.

The man in Mathew 7 performed the wonderful works in respect to his own self (self righteousness) becaise of that work of self rightepousnes Christ called him a worker of inquiy.,not having a imputed righteousenes of Christ that comes from Christ by a work of the faith of God, also called a labor of His Love ...again working to both will and do His good pleausre.

Who works in you to both will and do the good pleasure ?????
Who works in YOU sweetie?
You seem a bit lost to me.
