Context Context.
I know that must be hard for you, But here you go slandering a person again, based on CONTEXT.
DC teaches we do good works because it is the right thing to do to honor our savior, and in our best interest
You teach we do good works to get/keep/maintain (whatever they all mean the same) salvation.
HUGE difference..
Is there such a thing as a pedantic spirit. I know people say there is a religious spirit,
Jezebel, and probably a spirit for every bad emotion in life, sex, anger, fear, hatred?

So if a legalist meets someone they want to crush, shame, ridicule, harrass, abuse,
mock, lie about, slander, they will find the smallest of issues then say it must mean
that SATAN HIMSELF is present and the HOLY DEMON hunters are present, they will
save the day. lol.

The 1000x the same lines will be repeated like a chant, if you "good works" keeper
will not relent, we will send you personally to the place such people deserve, sniggerrrrr,

You will notice the irony is condemning good works and doing them.
Paul says it like this

And whatever you do,
in word or deed,
do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Col 3:17

Paul like all redeemed, holy, cleansed, purified men and women of God have
no fear that everything they do brings glory to His name when done in the Spirit.

And if you do not walk in the Spirit, the narrow road, you are not walking with Jesus.

What you have done is a good work
you don't need anyone to validate or approve of it but GOD
You did those things because you love GOD and you love the souls of others
if that was your agenda, HE knows it

and that is sufficient

it is between you and HIM who knows your heart and works
I agree with you miknik.
I look for no approval.

I DO wish to make sure that those reading along understand that the "easy believeism" which is taught today is WRONG.
I'm not sure that a person's soul is at stake. But I do know that I've been taught that we MUST Always teach what is biblical and correct and what has been Christianity for 2,000 years, not for the past 50 years because some preachers have changed it.

I hope I'm doing the right thing.
I think so....

I think you're right about one thing..... he's fighting something in his past.

But I don't think it's the ghosts of bible college..... I think it's the ghosts of the last church he pastored.
A pastor? dc?
If you just say yes to everything he says, things will go well, if not those guns
will probably come out, and "do you think yourself lucky, today, punk?"

Yeah, sorry 'bout this, guys, but I'm going to have this thread locked.

I can lead the horses to water, but frankly way too many giraffes in the herd. And, I'm really not all that sure the horses are drinking.

(On the good side, since it takes so long for a mod to get to this, you're free to continue to argue until it is locked.)

lol, well as usual you thought wrong
You do not know how to become a chid of God. your trying to earn your status, not be born again BY god via the cross.
Christianity 101, you failed.
The biting irony here
It demands a bit of humour

Which applies to just about everyone in the forum. It always get heated when disagreement comes about the fundamentals of the Gospel. You learn to get over it or keep butting heads.

Look guys, what I am seeing is so new to me, that I'm amazed why I didn't see before. There are many walking in these things and I have a lot of catching up to do. And we all have little time.

The first law that I see is the law of the Lord. Jesus fulfilled this law and so do we.

Luk 2:23 as it is written in the Law of the Lord, "Every firstborn son is to be designated as holy to the Lord." Jesus is the firstling of the womb of heaven. Look at firstling in the OT, and the Hebrew definition.

Jesus, the first fruit of the Sons. This is the very first law of the Kingdom of Heaven, "we must be born into it".

Its for us a spiritual realm that we are connected to, and will learn to live out of this realm while yet on earth. That is why I say it's Kingdom laws that we obey, not earthly, for in truth we are now Spirit if born from above.

Our obedience to these Kingdom laws is faith. We apply them by faith. I'm only as far as the law of faith, which is declaring into the spiritual realm, the promises given to us in order to bring heaven to earth. I want my children in heaven. He has given me His Word they will be. I don't yet see it manifested here, but I believe Gods Word is gold. So I declare it done as He promised.

Thats just an example of the law of faith. There are other laws and I need the time to pursue and study.

Quit struggling over earthly things. We don't belong here. We belong above.

seek the things above, and we all will have great joy from Him.

I have a lot to do here at home, so later. Love you all.

Stephen,

I would like to pm you a bit later is that is ok with you? Will check later too.

Lets talk about the narrow gate.

99.9 percent of the worlds religions (including many of those who call themselves christian) believe the way to God is through good works.

that leave 0.1 percent of the world which believes in salvation by faith alone based on the work of Christ alone.

So who is entering the narrow gate?

You do not need to exegete all verses, Just look at them and look at reality
Are you Dcon's attorney?

Can he not speak for himself?

I mean, you answer ALL my posts to HIM. I mean ALL.

Is he not able to exegete like I did?
Didn't he go to bible school or something?

So why are you here and not him?

He can't stand up for himself?
It SEEMS like he might be able to....
Maybe not?

..............

This thread is about light and darkness correct?

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.

Is there any topic found within the word of God that is not equated unto the LIGHT?

Just asking and not being mouthy....for the sake of honoring your request...I will not engage her or any workers for in this thread again....!

Amen, we are not supposed to head to the light (God) but we are supposed to let his light reflect off us so the world can see it.
I'm serious EG

You're a little mixed up. Really.

Listen... You're saying above what you accuse ME of...

You said that we're supposed to let God's light reflect off us so the WORLD COULD SEE IT.
You're Always saying that some do works the world could see and inside they rot, or something like that.

Didn't you just say the same thing??

You're wrong you know.

We ARE supposed to walk TOWARD THE LIGHT. HEAD TO THE LIGHT.

If you're not, it means you're going in the other direction... and that's the DARK.

See. We're right on topic. Depleted will be happy.

I guess I've misunderstood again... maybe, but I doubt it...

Maybe they are twins, or actually the same person, multiple personalities????

I have noticed the looking bad issue is coming up a lot, not is this actually
right or wrong, good or evil.



Getting caught is just being found out, this is what walking in the light is all about.

From my limited understanding of having spent over 50 years of bible study and contemplation I would say that any works performed for God and through the grace of God are a manifestation of the amount of faith the one possesses when one is born again by confession and forgiveness of sin by the shed blood of Jesus dying on the cross, inviting the Holy Spirit to live in our hearts, and to guide us in performing the works that our Heavenly Father has prepared for us beforehand.


James 2:14-26

What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
You're too humble.
You're understanding is not limited but spot on.

This is Always how it is.
The Godly righteous are humble.
The self-righteous are not.

Oh you're no fun!

Know why Dcon's thread lasted so long?

He's easy going with whatever people post.
We got you to almost 300 posts.

You should be happy!!
