    Salvation. Thoughts?

    Well I personally believe that every saved Christians wishes to be sinless. But people have problems and it takes time to overcome these problems, and for some people it spans their entire life. I think one of those big sins is lusting over other people, it is something you can control but at...

    I do understand what you are saying. There is really no argument that after you get saved the Holy Spirit is in you and that obviously does make a change in your life. That does not exclude the fact that Jesus died for all of your sins. If you accept him through his sacrifice then your sins are...

    The Jews rejected Jesus and, like it says in 1 Thessalonians 2:14-15, They killed him. God is not a respecter of persons. Being Jewish has to do with a whole lot of nothing.

    Christ humbled himself as a man. He is not a man. He is neither. He is God. Now when he was in the flesh he was a man, he needed to do this in order to fulfill prophecy but Jesus right now is by no means a man.

    In the Old Testament People were saved by faith in the New Testament people were saved by faith. In the OT they were looking towards the cross in the NT we are looking back at the cross. different time lines, same God. The difference now is we do not have to sacrifice in order to get right with...

    Please show me the verse where it says you have to convert to Judaism to be saved LOL. The Bible says the Jews are those who are circumcised of the heart, not of the flesh. Birth right has nothing to do with salvation. Romans 2:28-29"For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that...

    But that still goes to show, that slaves make mistakes. You will sin till the day you die, I mean if we are being honest with ourselves us arguing here could maybe even be considered sin. And the Bible says that even the thought of foolishness is sin.

    The Bible says in 1 John 2:2 "And he is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world." I believe that is extremely clear. Really cannot get anymore clear than that. propitiation is meaning atonement for or appeasing God.

    Exactly if you are born again then you are covered in Jesus righteousness. Therefore you can no longer be condemned by sin. "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." 1 John 1:8. But thanks for the reply.

    Okay so like in the part of my post that you quoted I said there are cryptic verses out there that are twisted. Now bearing fruit has to do with the works that we do not our salvation. God is literally a father to those who are saved. You can choose to have a good relationship with him or a bad...

    You can freestyle your own prayer this is just simply an example. But feel free to come up with something from the heart. Not a hardnosed prayer you just need to confess. That is what the Bible says. Thank you for your input.

    Okay I understand where you are coming from. Thank you for the comment. I just simply like to give people more details, it helps them have less questions. I also do believe it is important for people to understand they are sinners. Can't be saved if you do not know what you are being saved from.

    The Bible says all. All means all and that's all all means. Simple as that. He did die for all, but people have their own free will and they can choose to reject. Many do, that is what is called free will.
