Do you seriously believe we can lose the grace of God, or can we put it this way: Grace is always available to us, but we must access it and exercise it or we can find ourselves going through false motions, using our own wisdom, rather than using the grace of God and growing spiritually...

I would think if Jesus offers us grace, it would be 100% of he has to offer us. Peter seems to say that we can grow our grace. IOW it starts small and grows as we use it to be more like Christ and what he did. So what do you think. See 2 Peter 3:18 and tell me what you think "grow in...

How do we grow our grace? 2 Peter 3:18?

If Jesus gives us his grace freely, why does Peter say that we must grow in grace? And how do we grow our grace?

Your response means Chester wins the argument.

I did, it is in Daniel 2:37-45 especially vs 44.

I believe it was not just 1 kingdom that was represented by 10 toes, but eventually 10 kingdoms or 10 kings that would not give up their kingdoms to be one kingdom like the other 4 before. So during the time of the 10 toes, it says that God set up a kingdom that would not be given to others or...

Galatians 6:2 refers to "the law of Christ". Do we know what is fully contained in the "law of Christ"? Read James 1:27 and find out what pure religion is and why it is undefiled before God? Read Matthew 25:31-46 and find out what it takes to be one of the sheep standing on the right hand of...

The day of Pentecost was in the middle of the days of the iron legs, represented by Rome, not in the day of the 10 toes mixed with clay and iron. Remember the kingdom would be set up in the day of the kings represented by the 10 toes, not in the middle of the day of the legs of iron. I know...

Since 600ad till now?

What do you think of Daniel's interpretation of the dream of Nebuchadnezzar, especially vs 44? What kingdom did God set up in the days of the 10 toes, after the days of the 4 mighty kingdoms of the Babylonian Empire, the Achaemenid Empire, the Macedonian Empire and the Roman Empire? Is this...

Thats great that you friend found a solution for his infection. So how do you reconcile the law of Moses with the New Testament? You have to remember that I am mostly on your side, but I need to know your answer to this question.

So you are OK with circumsizing your children? You keep the Saturday Sabbath? You keep all the feasts and festivals that the OT Israelites did? You put to death people who profane on the Sabbath. You put to death those that are caught in adultry? IOW, how do you reconcile the law of Moses...

So you believe that living the letter of the Law was more demanding than living the spirit of the law? To me, living the letter of the law was like living a lower law, as it says, the law was a schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, or bring us to a higher order, in fact the new law of Christ...

Tell me what you think is more demanding, the letter or the Spirit of the law? Is the Spirit of the law a higher law than the letter of the law? What is the Law of Christ?
