I was born again 4 years and 5 months ago \:)/...
I was actually listening yesterday to a sermon called God calls the no bodies that someone posted in one of the threads...
It reminded me of how filthy I was in my sins , yet He called me , a nobody in this world , yet a precious daughter to Him...
All the glory to God Amen...

Meeting God..means face to face in my mind...like you meet a friend for coffee..I have not lied.

thats not what I mean, so yes you did lie by placing your own interpretation on my words
Some of your teaching.does not fit right in my Spirit....sorry if it offends.
Click to expand...
It does not offend me, but it is dishonest if your not going to say which teachings,

It doesn’t offend me when you accused me of not being born again...not in the slightest.

Again with this accusation.

please show where I said as a fact you are not born again. Because this is dishonest, how can you claim to be a daughter of god and make false accusations like this?

Maybe so...but he never met God.....I would say he never received/accepted God into his heart.

Which means he was never saved to begin with

which means he did not lose salvation like your friends want to claim

which means God did not make a mistake

I will look for the post where you accused me and can assure you I will post it.

As for meeting God..I did not lie...you need to be more precise in what you say....you never “met” God face to face...period.

I am not judge..I have quoted scripture...no one has met God face to face.

No one has claimed to meet god face to face.

so to say they claim they have is to bear false witness

I’ve been told we should stick to the OP....we aren’t saved by works.

If you want to debate OSAS start a new thread.

I am not debating osas, I am proving a person who claims to have been saved and left the church and no longer believes was never saved.

you can agree with John with me, or you can prove you believe we are saved by works

Gifts are not earned but most certainly can be lost.

Better not use that argument again, it’s easily defeated.

Temporal Gifts can belost

but something that is called eternal can not stop being eternal, otherwise the giver lied

Obedience actually does produce faith. We used to sing “trust and obey” at one time. The disciples grew in their faith as they obeyed specific instructions.

One can wait for faith to be sufficient so one can easily obey, I guess. But I’d ask those who believe this how it’s working out for them?

What grows our faith is allowing gods love to flow through us, as we take steps of faith and prove god is trustworthy

What also grew my faith was being obedient to what God was asking me to do.not biblical..but personal,as the Lord and I have an intimate relationship.

1..i will wait, and make sure if you see it you post the whole comment

2. I never claimed I met him face to face and have denied it multiple times now, to continue to insist I have is to break one of gods commands,

remember, our discussions began when you were preaching obedience via law..

Once again

john said they departed from us, but they were never of us, for if they were they never would have left.
who are they? Antichrists
who is an antichrist, anyone who does not believe (have faith)

I left for 5 as a prodigal child, I never stopped having faith, my faith weekend, but it was still there, the chastening of a God is what brought me back.

Amen

when he says you will never die, but instead have eternal life

he meant it,

they do not understand to say this eternal gift can be lost makes it a conditional gift, and mocks our God
