    the law reveals sin. Jesus paid the price for it in full and gives us a perfect robe of righteousness. The law was perfectly obeyed by Jesus and therefore we are see as if we did too. the law reveals the unrighteous, murderers, adulterers, thieves, etc. so we realize our need of Jesus and His...

    This is a simple question.... Because of the Love Grace and goodness of God in giving Jesus to suffer and die for my sins and yours do we now have the right to sin without consequence? It was my sins that held Jesus to the cross so do i continue to sin today because the price was paid in...

    How do i believe any differently to you. I promote the love of obedience as a result of the faith and salvation that has already happened in the heart. I love to obey because of the Spirit that works in me. When my flesh wants it's way in me there is war. There is a battle for our hearts...

    I've said it many times and you keep missing it. We are saved by grace alone. 100% the gift of Christ. We do not add to His robe of righteousness. We obey because we are saved. Faith in Christ results in obedience. Love for Christ results in obedience. Keeping the commandments is obediance.

    I agree, Jesus is all, and the only source of salvation. The point I'm making is that Jesus want to live in our hearts which results in a transformed life. A life of obedience.

    The question was asked " how does someone know they are born again" The principle of being born again is about "starting a new life" and ending the current life. To die to the current flesh controled life, and be born as new person that is controlled by the Holy Spirit. You give your heart...

    You have already stated many times that i am believing in salvation by faith and works. I will openly say that faith and works can not really be seperated in the life of a true christian. I've said many times that the motive for works is what seperates legalism and true love. Be careful your...

    We seem to agree about justification by grace. But when we are told to not use this grace as an excuse to transgress the law, but rather establish it, i seem to be, from what some of you have said, not understanding things right .. Rom 6:1,15... Jesus wants to free us from sin... Which means...

    Exactly what it says, hatred brings strif, but love is patient, kind, longsuffering, gentile and GRACIOUS. love covers or overcomes sin. Rom 5:20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

    Grace is a boundless source of power from God that is given to us. This gift is often accepted by people for their past sins and they stop here. JUSTIFICATION. God wants so much more, even the holy standard that Jesus was when on Earth, PERFECTION. Grace is given for more then just...

    They had fruits that showed what was in their heart. Jesus said He never knew them. By their fruits you shall know them. Our fruits are a reflection of the heart and mind. Like works are a result of the faith. If you really make Jesus your Lord and give yourself to His service, then your...

    By grace we are saved. Are christians given this grace in vain? 1Co 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your...

    Works of the Law

    Christians are under grace, and they use GOD'S GRACE to obey the law. We don't receive grace to continue in sin. We don't serve sin and Jesus at the same time. Rom 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin...

    It only takes one sin Sin = death. All have sinned so all of mankind need salvation. Salvation is a free gift and we can not do anything to save ourselves, we can't add to the gift so no boasting on our part. Mat 7:21-23 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into...

    The law of God defines sin. Sin is the transgression of the law. God's law is what defined sin in the beginning, what defines sin today and what will define sin in the future. GOD'S LAW is for our good, for our protection, our safety, and peace. Rom 7: 12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    History shows that God was faithful on His part. Israel was faulty in their part of the agreement.. Jesus is the fullness of the promise, and in Jesus mankind is able to access the promises God has prepared for those that love Him. Prophesy doesn't have Israel as the ruling kingdom, because...

    If the law is not valid today, why did Christ need to die? What defines sin today? Is there a law that defines sin in heaven? Will sin be defined by a law on the new Earth? What law defines sin today? Remember God does not change, and no law = no sin = no need for grace.
