You're wasting value time of fellowship with God by being judgmental and condemning believers that are learning how to walk by the Spirit.

I posted scripture. If that condemns them, so be it.

Or maybe they can be a listener and doer of the scripture instead of being an analyzer of the scripture, and get freed from error.

There's too many Greek and Hebrew "scholars" and not enough English listeners.

Ah, I disagree!

There can never be too many Greek and Hebrew scholars! We need people who study and care about the text.

But a true scholar will also be a listener - that is the nature of a scholar.

The trouble is when we have Greek and Hebrew "listeners only" and not enough English "scholars". :D

Which is why you need to do what this scripture says:

Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

For this,

  • Thou shalt not commit adultery
  • Thou shalt not kill
  • Thou shalt not steal
  • Thou shalt not bear false witness
  • Thou shalt not covet

And if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, namely,

  • Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

Love works no ill to his neighbor: Therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

(Romans 13:8-10).

Perhaps you are a troll or perhaps you actually believe that which you promote... either way not good.

You are so far outside of correct biblical understanding I might as well be talking to a JW, Mormon, etc., etc.,

That's what I want to know!
The new osas says believing is God's work, not yours (if 'you' do it, it's you trying to save yourself).
If that's true, why does God fail so miserably at his job of believing for some people? :unsure:

Romans 8:38-39( NKJV ):
"For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
