I don't troll anyone. If anything, I try to expose such. I have not receive any revelation on this subject so I am questioning some terms and expressions used in the Christian circle. Love is a fruit of the Spirit because of the Spirit that is in us. We love God because the Spirit of God in us...

Yes, I believe I understood you correctly, and that is why I was trying to correct you. I believe your understanding of what faith is, is incorrect. You are speaking in general terms, where I'm am speaking of specific works. Yours has no power of God in operation, but speak in terms of general...

Are you saying, that Galatians 5:19-20 says works of the flesh are considered good works? I hope not, because all those things listed are bad works.

Most Christians believe any kind gesture or act of kindness is considered a "good work" in the eyes of God. I just wanted to make a distinction between what many see something they do, as a good work and what I believe, God says is a good work. And like I said earlier, just eating your food in...

How could you get the first part so right and the second so wrong? Could it be because you don't understand what faith is or how it works? James asks a very simple question in 2:14, with an obvious answer. That being, NO. Jas 2:14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath...

Please read post # 84, as it should address your post as well.

My point is, if it doesn't involve faith, it doesn't please God, and if He is not pleased, then does it still constitute a good work? Is a good work the same as doing a good thing or deed? I had someone offer to do a good deed for me, only to find out after he started this work, his motive was...

Please read post 47. That's my take on giving to the poor and, though I didn't include it in my post, going to church. I believe a good work has to do with the power of God moving in a situation, NOT what we do per se.

Pro 19:17 He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again. Pro 28:27 He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse. Mat 19:16 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master...

What kind of works are you not born of? The law or moral works? What do you consider to be the bible's definition of a good work? Giving to the poor or going to church?

I have read many of your responses, and from what I have seen, you are not challenging your beliefs, but that of the true believers in Christ. Posing oneself as being open minded, yet openly trying to overthrow the faith of some, makes you a snake, or a wolf under the guise of searching for the...

Amen. He said they were getting mad because he was so calm. Even though they never ruffed him up or even hit him once, they went out of their way to try to instill fear in him. They started out telling him what they did to others and then told him what they were going to do to him. It was as...

Glad to hear that. God is good and gracious in His love toward us, isn't He? But in most cases, someone has to pray first before God moves in a situation.

My thoughts as well, only he said they were very confused as to what to do with him, for they kept driving around for a long time. There is more to the story, as I said, but he was praying they would be confused and to let him go. They started out, intending to kill him, but the longer they...

Let's say for argument's sake, you wanted to rob a bank. Would you just go in to rob the place, without any knowledge of what's inside or how much money is in the bank at the time. If you wanted to get caught you would. Wouldn't you first get some knowledge of what you might be up against and...

Thank you for your reply sir. It is my personal belief, to those who are walking with God, when in such a situation, God takes over, because He's in you. Mar 13:11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but...

and pray God reveal every truth you are open to receive. Sorry 'bout that. Don't know why the last part didn't go through.

I pray you do so, while seeking God with an honest heart to know what the truth is. You have gone further than most to even consider some of the scriptures presented to you, and for that, I thank you a

Only that it's a poor argument to use in your defense.

I don't know how you could have read what I wrote and think I was talking about water baptism. In a nutshell, I said the water was or represented the word of God. It has nothing to do with baptism. Would you care to read it again, now that you have a better understanding of what I was saying?
