You accept the flowers because he is your husband. When a person becomes born again, they are the bride of Christ, (Ephesians 2:5) He is their husband. The natural person (1 Cor 2:14) has no husband, and cannot receive the things of the Spirit. If a person defends the natural person, who...

When a born again person, whose heart God has exchanged, (Ezk 11:19), comes unto a knowledge of the truth, they respond to their guilty conscience, and repent, as the born again Jews did when they were pricked in their heart to feel guilty, and responded by saying What must we do. This is a...

A person that is dead (in sins) cannot accept spiritual things (1 Cor 2:14). If the scriptures do not harmonize, then you are not understanding the truth.

Your miss-understanding of the scriptures are teaching you eternal salvation=deliverance by doing good works. Repenting and believing and receiving are good works of those who have been born again, which delivers=saves them from the destruction's of sin, as they sojourn here on earth. These...

You think it is a silly response, because you are not rightly dividing the word. The natural man, before he has not been born again spiritually, according to 1 Cor 2:14, cannot receive things that are of the Spirit. Those who have been born again, when they come unto a knowledge of the truth...

Hearing and believing in spiritual things can not be received by the natural man, until he has been born again (1 Cor 2:14) (John 10:26-29) When a person is born again, God exchanges his heart of stone to a heart of flesh that can be bricked, by God, to feel moral guilt.(Esk:11:10) These Jews...

If you are required do anything it is not free. Salvation was finished for all of those that God called, and gave to his Son who promised them an inheritance in eternal heaven (John 6:37-39) Christ's sacrifice was offered to God, for God's acceptance. It was not offered to mankind for their...

Can you give me scripture for your statement, that I may respond?

The world in John 3:16 is the world of believers only. The world in John 3:16 and some others, according to Thayer's concordance, says any aggregate, or general collection of particals of any sort (world of believers only) John 1:29, 3:16, 3:17, 6:33, 12:47, 1 Cor 4:9.

You and many others use different sources of searching for spiritual truths, but as for myself, I believe that the scriptures prove themselves and are my only source of study. John 6:37-39 explains who Jesus died for, and it was only for those that were called and given to Jesus by his Father...

If you will give me a scripture for your statement, I will be glad to explain how you are miss-interpreting it,

I agree that the natural man can know that he breaks the laws that man has made, but he does not believe that there is a spiritual heaven, or anything else that is of a spiritual nature.

This kind of comment is typical when a believer in eternal deliverance by works cannot harmonize the scriptures. I have empathy for them, because I was also blinded to see the truth, until I denied my own ability to understand it at the age of 72, and realized that no one is capable to...

It amazes me as to what lengths a person will go to to affirm their belief that their good works is what saves them eternally. If only they would interpret the scriptures correctly, and realize that the scriptures do teach that the good works of those that already have the promise of an eternal...

The natural man, according to 1 Cor 2:14, cannot receive the things of the Spirit, until he has been quickened to a new spiritual life, thinking them to be foolishness. Jesus gives us the example, in 1 Pet 3:18, when he died for the sins, of those that God gave him, He was quickened by the...

You are correct in that the world in John 3:16 pertains to "the world of believers", not the the world of all humanity.

The outcome of our choices is explained in Psalms 53:2-3.

God so loved the world of believer Jesus did not die to redeem the sins of all mankind, if so, all mankind would have eternal life, and even you know that the scriptures do not teach that. He only died for those that God gave him (John 6:37-39).

It is all in whether you are applying your wording of saved to eternally delivered, or to a deliverance that the eternally delivered receive, as they sojourn here on earth by doing good works. There is a one time eternal deliverance that was accomplished by Christ's death on the cross, for...

That is correct. and they responded to Peter, and the rest of the apostles, by saying, "Men and brethren, what must we do? God had already exchanged their heart of stone to a heart of flesh that could feel guilt. In Acts 7, when hearing Stephen preach the same sermon, the men who still had...
