Not By Works

I mentioned David and she @GodsGrace101 said she was tired of hearing about David.....P.S. she asked me to TAG her when I speak of HER so I did

"But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him.

yes, that would betray him.......

was Judas given authority over all devils????? yes or no

was he not given power (dunamis) to preach?

how did the spirit of God speak through him if he was never saved? Matthew 10:20

you've called me names ever since i been on this thread.....dishonest.....deceiver.....mocking me as a pastor etc...

i guess this is how you debate the scriptures............not even address the ones that may prove your point wront??

I always have a good time on CC.....love this place HA

do you get a notification somewhere if someone tags you? I dont think ive ever been tagged, not that i've gotten a notification of it atleast!

E G did you miss the part were i said "a man full of God's Spirit?"

You point is MOOT NONEWSMAN.......he was never saved........HE was NOT clean and HAD NOT BELIEVED.......I do not know what Kind of salvation you are peddling in your HOME church, but the last time I checked ONE must believe to be saved....give it up deceiver

OK.
The other poster brought up agape love.
Agape love is God's love.
I did say God's agape love.
Which is a very serious love.

Then I asked:
Does God love a murderer?

What do you think?

I think God is not a lover of sin...
Persons that live in sin (different from sinning) cannot be loved by God.
They grieve the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit is God.

Before you answer, I'd like to say that persons that are having trouble with sin and know it and are asking God for help and forgiveness are NOT the persons I'm speaking of above.

But, yes, I don't think God loved Ted Bundy.

ikr. talk about reading into the text!! Eisegesis the professionals call it.

Judas died of worldly sorrow...He did not run back to Jesus and ask Jesus to forgive him , that`s what happens to people who are not born from above , they die through guilt and shame , when Jesus could of took that all away from him , he had no love in his heart for Jesus , not one ounce...xox...

YES...........

I agree with you brother and feel the need to expound. Many don't seem to understand the severity of the predicament of the lost son. Loving money more than God, the impression of false leaders among us, teaching their view of eternal security that will be turned upside down for them to be saved out of hell and become the least in the kingdom. There is mention of false apostles in Revelation. Also Jesus loved His own until the end. Once the Lord told me: It would be better for you not to have been born than to return to your vomit. Had I died stillborn I would be in paradise in the afterlife presently. Had I returned to chasing... I would experience hell until the final judgment. Get outside the box for a moment and understand, ok I'm contradicting myself, how can we get outside our understanding and understand; Ok don't be afraid to think outside the box for a moment then. Hell is a place where people go their own way while they know better, they may be granted repentance as people pray and they repent, this happened to me, and you don't need to die physically to experience all this, some of you know what I'm referring to. After marriage break I was dead spiritually, in sin, and felt Christians had no reason to be joyful, I was a Christian after all. The Lord told me: Because I Live you shall live also. Those who don't get up to go on will be released from hell in the final Judgment. Please refrain from standing in the place of God and sentencing them all to the lake of fire. You will not find God pleased with you and your dictatorship and you may bear your own judgment in that crowd facing this final judgment to change your attitude. God has the keys of death and hell and has been sending people back from death and hell to a hell-bent people who don't think they could end up there and saved in the end.

Oy vey!

this is paul speaking to a congregation of professing believers (at colosse)


i see this specific bit as encouragement to us with a genuine and enduring faith

all who truly believe are those who have been reconciled and will continue in the faith


not being moved or swayed is a product of a saving faith

trust
confidence
belief
fidelity

We all sin...even after we're saved.
It's cut down a great deal because we have the Holy Spirit dwelling in us.
The same happened to David.
Maybe my brain is fried because it's late...
but I'm starting to wonder...SO WHAT!
So he sinned...a sin is a sin to God. God is holy and He can't stand any sin.
So then D repented...
This is how it's supposed to be.
I didn't mean that it's not important.

one of these days😢

Peter denied out of fear

Judas denied and became a traitor knowing what he was doing

Judas also had the sin of unbelief, all of these sins much greater that peter who in his frame of mind at the time acted out of fear.

Wow man, you have an odd understanding of sin, it brings alot of other stuff into perspective though.

Dude, you should be reported. How many times do you think you can slander people and get away with it. He answered your question, even I saw that, even though i even disagree with him, (god spoke through an animal, was that animal saved?) but was waiting for you to respond,

You have some confessing to do man, uou keep digging yourself deeper i to a hole bcause your to busy tryi g to defend your faith at all cost!
