These are the same cats who say obedience to the Law = intimacy with God and getting to spend time with Him. Such nonsense. In Christ He, by the Spirit, is literally is in you and you are in Him. He is the mind, will, and emotion of your spirit. "Spend time with Him..." how moronic.

Are you allowed to change scripture under the Law? Jesus said "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on...

Amen!

Isn't it interesting, when someone who claims we must obey the covenant given at Sinai and they are able to quote the "greatest commandment" (‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is...

Yeah. The first corrupted relationship after the fall was the one between God the Father and His children. Their Father became their enemy: One from whom to hide and dread.

Right. Before eating the fruit they identified with their Father, God, who is Spirit. They knew they were spirits clothed in flesh. After eating, and succumbing to the lusts of the flesh and eyes, they identified with their flesh and "saw", with the eyes of their souls, that they were without...

It wasn't the singing. I accidentally played an instrument, too. Right to jail.

Tried that but the Baptists shut me down. :(

So how’s the weather in Russia?

I think I read the room wrong. I thought this post was REALLY funny. :unsure:

Agreed. Not all pastors are elders but all elders are pastors. These are saints gifted with the care and attention to the people. In the corporate structure pastors are everything-men. No such man exists in the Kingdom of God save for One man.

Totally agree. If you cannot connect with your pastor except by appointment weeks out they are not your pastor.

I think it is funny. Am I wrong? Please use scripture to condemn me. No opinions.

“And the woman whom you saw is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth.” ”City” is an interesting term. It’s the Greek word “polis” which means "a group of people". Physically, a city has a specific location. Also, one may know the character of a city by the way it transacts...

You said this: Implying that we are not conformed to His image until we are given our new bodies. My point: the processes of conformation begins at inclusion into His Body. That happens on this side of the eternal. Furthermore, it continues into the eternal, in the new heaven and earth, with...

I forgot to address your view of positional truth. Positional truth conveys all the authority of the position. So, if the scriptures say "we are seated with Christ in Heavenly places" this is not an exposition on the placement of our chair. This is about the authority, available to us now...

Non sequitur. It's clearly established that the Body of Christ exists both in the earth and in heaven and is made up of those who believe in Him. "Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; 13 but exhort one another daily, while...

The passage continues: "Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified." It is about sanctification. We are already His flesh and His bones. "For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His...

To the image of His Son. ”For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.” It’s the promise of sanctification.
