You surely did not think any of us would covert to YOUR RELIGION.
It would really gain you respect if you dropped the false accusations.

I have been baptized into the body of Christ. Not into a religion.

And if it were a religion, what so terrible and abominable about the doctrine of the Bible that exhorts to holiness?

The problem that I see in your post here Dottie is your reference to watching people over the years fall. You cannot base your observations as truth from scripture for only God is good. Or only God is pure and Holy.
Well then the whole medical research should pack up and we return to no doctors because all them, 100%, base their knowledge of medical conditions based on observation and none on the Bible. Nevertheless some medical has found the truth about the body purely from observation not requiring pure and holy anywhere. Information is not limited to the Bible Stone and you don’t live like it is.
Job 5:7 Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.

It takes time for us to fully understand what we have been given. And the sprinkling of blood on our conscience is the remedy for our failures. It’s not our right to judge one another as far as our relationship with the Lord. But, we do judge whether the words we hear are according to truth.
I have no idea what you want to say.
Mercy and grace have kissed in this time period. God as much more of this for us His own then we can imagine.
Im a practical person and the flowery language does nothing for me. Maybe others like it.

That is why our Theme song is: NO TURNING BACK.


AND HERE IS A VERY CLOSE SECOND THEME SONG OF OSAS.

So only those who believe as you do are Christians?

OSAS’ers should take heed to scriptures below and meditate upon them.

It’s the word of God.


Psalm 4:4
[4] Stand in awe, and do not sin

Psalm 119:11
[11] Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

Luke 11:36
[36] If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.

Philippians 1:29
[29] For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake [because]

1 Peter 4:1
[1] ...he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin

Its this docrine that you propose that you have achieved sinlessness that is abominable.

So you omniscient over the last few minutes of someone's consciousness before death.

Any other super powers?
Ah, no one asks for a drag on their death bed after quitting 20 years previously. And smoking is not permitted in hospital rooms anyway. I don’t have to be omniscient to know some things. You really don’t like me, do you? Can’t even admit that people do stop smoking and God didn’t do it?

Once Saved Maybe Saved if you stay perfectly sinless?
Not buying it.

it is not only abominable , it is a lie, and a egregious lie at that.

Why cv5?

Because of you sects doctrine?

But what saith the scripture?

Ezekiel 3:21
[21] ...if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.

I have delivered my soul by warning you.

It’s on you now to either take heed to the scripture or turn your back on the word of God.

God led me to scripture..I too like you was baptised in the Holy Spirit.....he testified to me that I was his child and born again.

He then led me to scripture...only a born again will see the Kingdom of God....I am secure in that knowledge...not just in my heart...but my mind lines up with my heart and scripture.

Eternal security.....like i have said many times....who ever the Father gives to Jesus..he won’t lose one.

You don’t seem to have that security....?

Untrue. I told one of you that I feel nothing but love for you and he doesn’t like me. I have never used the insulting adjectives you and your team use.


It’s nothing to do with you.......it’s your teaching he doesn’t like....because it’s false.....

Read your post above to me DorothyMae.....you need a break my dear...I’m being serious.
