Peter didn’t preach “just accept his gift..no repentance of sin, no challenge to your wrong desires, no surrender...keep living as you like.”

DOROTHY,

WHAT MAKES YOU BELIEVE THAT EVERY EVENT IN THE DISCIPLES LIVES WAS RECORDED IN THE NEW TESTAMENT ? ? ?

John 21:25 (HCSB)
25 And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which, if they were written one by one, I suppose not even the world itself could contain the books that would be written.


WE ONLY HAVE THE HIGHLIGHTS IN OUR NEW TESTAMENT, and in the OLD TESTAMENT.

Thanks, really appreciate this. When one understands the thinking of others, it helps one understand more fully why people behave as they do. As a man thinks so is he.

It also helps if you put them on ignore.....then you don’t get all of that silliness that spouts out of their mouth...another tactic of the enemy to get you drawn in.
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!......plus the peace is bliss.......as you don’t see them popping up in your window...with blah,blah,blah,every second.LOL.

God is so Goooooooooooooooood!!!.

God would like to know your enemy and not align with them....... with all seriousness.

Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
1 Peter 5-8

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
It seems to me that a doctrine that would keep me secure even if I continue in sin would be the desirable and seducing and ear soothing doctrine; not the biblical doctrine regarding the dangers of continuing sin.

OSAS cannot exist without its teachers; The Holy Spirit does not bear witness to OSAS (as taught by man).

OSAS can exist without its teachers....I wasn’t taught that,God placed the OSAS into my heart.....but the enemy gave me a hard time in my head..believing it.

Born again in the bible speaks to my heart because that is where the Holy Spirit dwells...he speaks to my heart...so all scripture about being born again I understand....I also know with no shadow of doubt...that the Holy Spirit will take my spirit to heaven on my death.

It’s my own personal security that I have in God....not given to me by men or teachers.

I suppose you can be right.

An ungodly spirit can come over you and blind you when you resist the plain passages that are contrary to OSAS. In fact, God himself probably sends that spirit to the one who will continue to resist the scriptures.

We need to try the spirits, whether they are of God (1 John 4:1).

You just gave an "Amen" to a person who just denied the Gospel of Jesus Christ by Grace through Faith!!

You know Once SAVED Always SAVED is the Gospel

Seriously wake up to your actions........ @Micaiah-imla believes he is working for his salvation every day be trying to be sinless.

The enemy is a master of blinding some from the truth.....God placed something in my heart many yrs ago....there it has remained never left......but the enemy bombarded my head with lies about it.

So even though it has always remained in my heart,because it was from God....my mind just couldn’t believe it....it seemed impossible to believe.
Well,the enemy has had his day.....the truth in my head now aligned with the truth in my heart.
It’s personal so can’t share...
God has told me I have between one to four months,then I will receive what is in my heart.

A big Amen to that!

And you don't know what you are talking about....the same crap you said right here, the deceivers ACCUSED PAUL OF THE SAME THING SLANDEROUSLY....get that through your head and chew on that...

FOR ALL deceivers that like to assault eternal security with the accusation that it is a liscense to sin or live any way we want....NO ONE HAS SAID THAT AND PAUL was accused of the same crap...

For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner? And why not say (as we are slanderously reported and as some claim that we say), "Let us do evil that good may come "? Their condemnation is just.

The same lie and accusation has been leveled at grace and eternal security from the 1st century A.D.....hilariously tragic that you jokers cannot see this!

You have absolutely no Good News without OSAS ...none!

You might as well join another religion.

The plan of redemption is complete in Christ Jesus.

Sin has been dealt at the cross whether you want to deal with that reality is on your head ... but what you really have an issue with is Grace.

Satan loves false dogma it is everywhere..... preach Grace and watch him seek to stomp it out.

NO BIGGIE, she has been supporting deceivers and false teachers from her first day here.....one has to ask where she really stands...by her support of false gospels it becomes all to obvious where she stands and who she really opposes!

I have not leveled this accusation at the moment.

I simply stated that a doctrine that allows a person to continue in sin without any eternal consequences would be a desirable, ear soothing, seducing, doctrine.

Telling people to take heed to doctrine and not to sin unless they fail to enter heaven is not desirable, seducing, nor ear soothing.

It's terrifying.

Which is why Jesus told you to:

Luke 12:5
5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
