Under law the man could not love In Spirit and TRUTH and could only love according to the flesh which was not In Spirit and TRUTH, JESUS had not yet shed HIS blood on the cross for us.

JESUS said that the words HE spoke were Spirit and Life.
We love because GOD first loved us.
definitely! what would be some dat-to-day examples?

Paul preached CHRIST. That is who is preached
GOD does not desire that any should perish but that all should come to repentence and the knowledge of HIS SON

But not all have grown up into THE HEAD and SOURCE of THEIR SALVATION

some think they have "grown up" but don't understand that they have actually "progressed above" THE HEAD
I don't understand

'grown up into THE HEAD'

'they have actually "progressed above" THE HEAD'


are they biblical phrases?

GOD overlooked men's sins but today calls all men to repentence and the kniwledgenodbthe TRUTH

You are disgusting men in india
Dont you think GOD can do HIS WORK?

john 5, after CHRIST revealed HIMSELF to the Samaritan woman, tells HIS disciples that the fields are ripe for the harvest. Ask the father to send out more workers

what "work" did you think CHRIST was referring to but to preach THE GOSPEL as witnesses of HIM before all mwn

Romans 10 tells us that though we are not to say who will ascend or who will descend, we are to preach to all men

Ans what are we to preach?
first, I assume this is a typo?
"You are disgusting men in india"



several great questions in your post, there... what would you like me to answer first?

Do you think JESUS' disciples did this and more?
being humans,

they did it sometimes,

sometimes they failed in living
as Jesus lived.

we all fail in many ways.

remember john how he said they went out from us and by their going out they made manifest that they were never with us?


1 john 2 and 2 John 1 is the very difference between those who REMAIN IN HIM (John 15)
and do not go above the ONE who is both LORD and MASTER (the servant is never above HIS MASTER) and those who progress above THE HEAD who is THE HEAD of HIS BODY and as such directs those by HIS SPIRIT. (It is why no one needs to teach another to know the LORD, for by the NEW COVENANT HE alone is able to teach and direct the "members" of HIS BODY as HE pleases for HIS GLORY alone

But there will be those who will not keep ever before them what they began in

which was faith (if it was proper faith) directed in and on HIM alone
who washed us ;by HIS BLOOD) and has justified and sanctified us because of our faith in HIM

GOD has provided a "city of" REFUGE
and our work was to REMAIN in HIM and not "go out" from HIM

Just like Rahab did
and just like the first Passover symbolized

those whose "houses" were truly marked by the blood of THE LAMB

When the people were cut to the heart and asked John what works must we do,

what did john say?

he didn't give an elaborate list of works
he just said do what is right

and when the people in John 6 asked CHRIST what must we do to do the WORK of GOD?


What did CHRIST say?

I believe you would have to read all of Ephesians to understand that Paul is telling the believers who they are in CHRIST's BODY

But of you are wanting the verse that shows that HE is the foundation a
d the head of THE BODY, I think that not only will you find it all throughout the letter to the Ephesians, but clearly in Ephesians 5 as well as explained again in 1 Corinthians 3

Christ is both the foundation, the rock on which we stand, and THE HEAD of HIS BODY

If one progresses above HIM, they have gone out
and those who do progress above HIM awake manifest that they never fully understood the magnitude of their great salvation. IN HIM

i meant you are discussing men in india

disgusting men in India!

Why do you go to the Christian forums and what not?

google and go straight to the scriptures
I basically did 'google', except I 'DuckDuckGo-ed' it. The phrases weren't found in the scriptures.

my question is, as per Romans 10, what is the word we preach?
the word of faith, which we preach:

9 that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,

you will be saved.
