I have friends who are Titusville snowbirds. I visited them once and we watched dolphins swimming in the Indian River. Really beautiful. I'm happy for you that you live there. :)

Rather than be intimitaded by the long list, it would not hurt for you to at least take 2-3 out of that list and try to explain them instead.

I dont need to explain them. Our difference is simple. For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that no of yourselves, it's a gift of God, not if works lest any man should boast.

If one's works (sins) can lose your salvation, than your works keep you saved which eph 2:8-9 clearly contradicts.
I believe salvation is forever, therefore no need to go down your list.
Plus you dont intimedate me at all. Dont belittle, or manipulate me by saying im intimedated, cause i dont jump through your hoop :)

As for talking about the issue of Pride: It would be entirely meaningless to discuss such verses if they did not actually apply to us, no?

A skunk literally has more sense about itself than a prideful person because a skunk knows it stinks, whereas a prideful person is blind to their own pride, thus they're blind to their own demise.

As I told you, Jason, I DO see it. I see what God is doing here, I see what Satan is doing here, and I see what you and everyone else is doing (and saying) here.. I see it for what it is.. :)

Do you think a person can be of God and personally and intentionally hurtful with their words (whereby they use insulting words and make personal attacks all the time)?

All scripture applies to all. saying scripture doesnt apply is pride to the core

I would agree. Do you think a Christian can put forth insulting stinky words out of their mouth (and refuse to confess and forsake such a sin) and still be a Christian?
 
This has gotten too good. I'm gonna grab some popcorn and sit in the front row to watch the rest of this show. Anybody with me?

Oh, good. Then why do some here think they are not condemned when they think they can die in unrepentant sin (Such as lying, lusting after another, and or hating) with the thinking they are saved?

Many folks had admitted to this here by way of voting in a poll I created.

Can a believer ignore Matthew 6:15 in the fact that they do not have to forgive? Do you know there is a Condition attached to that verse? That is you do not forgive, you will not be forgiven by the Father? How exactly is that verse in support of Eternal Security?
 
The Bible says the joy of the Lord is my strength, I'm joyful because of w!at Jesus has done for me, for all of us. Thankful and joyful. Where is the joy in counting your sins? Where is the strength if not in Him????

Christians do confess; prideful people like you do not.

Who has God's grace? The Christian.

Who does not have God's grace? Blasphemous, prideful people like you.

See, that is what I am talking about. You think you can sin and stil be saved. This is wrong. This is basically saying you can do evil and yet be good. This is not right. Then that could mean you can do other wrong sins and be saved, like being a serial killer, or hurting children, or being a professional thief.

If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9).

You sin all over this forum and think you're saved. How does that work?
 
It is love of God and gratefulness for the sacrifice of Jesus that changes the heart, so ridiculous to assume that we do not honor this total and all encompassing gift if His grace, we obey from love, not fear of God deserting us. He Is faithful. He is not a liar like men
