I know that and you know that but some folks here do not believe "there's anything new for [them] to know" and to suggest "there's so much more to know is to admit you still don't know what the gospel has revealed". Instead of engaging in an edifying discussion concerning the body of Christ...

Well it is interesting to me that when John Calvin stated the problem with the church in Corinth was the same as what I pointed out to you several days ago, you settled down. However, you now tell me you follow the Lord Jesus Christ and I will take you at your word. I'll stick with what God...

Do you know the spirit of God dwells within you? 1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? .

so do you now agree that there was division in the church at Corinth because people were following men instead of following the Lord Jesus Christ? ... and, yes, the pastors and teachers in our churches are to point the congregation to the Lord Jesus Christ so you don't need to go on another rant...

exactly! .

Please tell me the post number wherein it is stated that we are saved because of our choice. I have not seen anyone make that statement. That is why I told you that you were engaging in strawman fallacy. You are the only one who is saying that. We all agree that salvation is wholly of/by/from...

I do not agree. I believe the Holy Spirit continues to seal born again believers to this day. I didn't "cherry-pick" ... I provided several definitions from several sources. please provide your definition of sphragizo. thanks. .

it's your choice to follow your minister and ignore the plain words in Scripture. 1 Corinthians 1 [NLT]: 1 I appeal to you, dear brothers and sisters, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, to live in harmony with each other. Let there be no divisions in the church. Rather, be of one mind...

Ephesians 1:13-14 In whom [the Lord Jesus Christ] ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the...

The Lord Jesus Christ bought us. He paid the ransom. He laid His life down. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your...
