I guess it would be a bliss to just forget 'em, but then again you see their stinking posts and you're reminded...if anything then at least about Paul's struggle against similar spirits. Ugh.who ever has a chance to forget??![]()

Ya. He really is really mixed up. He can't decide if we are saved by grace or by works. I think he is talking out of his hind end half the time.
Please take note that 1 John 5:16-18 talks about sins that lead unto death and sins that do not lead unto death. I believe the sins that lead unto death are sins such as lying, murder, hate, adultery, theft, idolatry, and drunkenness, etc. which will lead to the Second Death, i.e. the Lake of Fire.

How can it be a continued relationship if we do not sin?
What about David...David was/is saved and the bible makes that clear!
However, that said, Samson and Solomon were saved and they lived out very sinful lives. But these are examples of God's grace and mercy of how one can be saved by the skin of their teeth. QUOTE]

Looks like you found a squeaky wheel! Grease that sucker!
I am talking to the devil now .
Dear Sirk:
God is not going to condemn someone for disobeying a command that does not have any specific penalties attached. But yet there are many other Commands in His Word that do have penalties attached if we disobey them, though.
For example: Jesus says if you do not forgive, you will not be forgiven. It means exactly what it says.
It's not wrong to tell people to stop sinning or to stop in doing evil. What do you think repentance is all about? What is the difference between a believer and unbeliever by the way that they live? Do you think there are some really good law abiding familes who try to live good lives without Jesus? You betcha. So what really makes them better than say the believer who thinks they can sin and still be saved? Not much if they both sin and do not have a changed life whereby they have crucified the affections and lusts. For what you don't understand is that God's people are holy. Not some mumbo jumbo we are holy but yet we cannot prove it garbage. God's people are actually supposed to live holy and perfect lives (According to God's Word). For why are you fighting against that which is good? Would it not be better to believe God's Word so as to stop in sinning? What would that mean for your life if you had stopped sinning?

I suppose you think David was lost as well?

sin is serious business. my Savior had to die for it. i hate it in myself.
but can't we also remember this?
For this reason I bow my knees before the Father,
from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name,
that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man,
so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God. (Eph 3:14-19)
oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus. He keeps me on course.
demonic psyco babble...
may very well be of the god of Ishmael type mocking Christians
I do wish mods would give the ole heave ho to these types...
browse some of the troll like behavior here
can we get a ban on this please?
If it is the person who it is suspected to be...he has been banned like twice already......
The Our Father where you get "Jesus says if you do not forgive, you will not be forgiven" is a "Disciples Prayer" given to Old Testament Jewish disciples before the crufixion, resurrection and Church Age.
A Chrisitan is not forgiven on the basis of forgiving others; he is forgiven, and cleansed, when he judges his own sin and confesses it to Jesus (1Cor.11:30-33; 1John 1:9)
If our forgiveness is conditional on forgiving others, then the atonement of Jesus Christ (not yet accomplished when the prayer was given) is insufficient, for "forgiveness and remission" of sins are clearly said to be part of the finished work of Jesus Christ in the believer (Col.1:14, Acts 13:38-40).
A Jew under Jesus's earthly ministry obtained forgiveness on a conditional basis. Matt.6:12 is teaching salvation from sin and forgiveness on the basis of works. It doesn't have a thing to do with the Blood-Atonement of our Lord.
huh...I thought people were banned by their ip address...but I guess that can be fixed if you know how...persistent little mocker
He seems to be stuck on thinking that we are advocating sinning with abandon.
Jason, Please respond, I see you'r still on line.
