Don't you believe what is written in the word of God? The bible says, you WERE a sinner b4 you came to Christ, but after Christ came into your heart through the word of God, you ARE, present tense, the righteousness of God. And your righteousness is not your own, but Christ in you. It doesn't...

You speak for yourself, not for me. I am not a sinner. I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. You might want to read up on what a sinner is in the new testament and find out what happens to them when they die. It is written, "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he". If you think and see...

I thoroughly enjoyed reading you post. :love: It was very well thought out and written. (y) I commend you concerning your knowledge and understanding of the scriptures. And forgive me for raving over your post, but it was just that good!!!

The devil is on a set course established by God, and He's not about to repent and change said course. It is written, Gen 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. It was a literal night and morning for each day.

Perhaps most believe and have argued that repentance of ones' sins is required for salvation, and at least myself, say otherwise. I don't know if anyone else believes as I do. I suppose the issue of repentance revolves around the subject of God's forgiveness for the sinner. I believe...

Joh 8:43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word [the truth]. As for why, below is from post 96. I'm going to guess by saying, you've been taught that doctrine by your church and/or pastor, right? Yes, it is simple and easy to understand, unfortunately it's...

Then how is it you agree with the majority of denominations? And not only did you fail to prove me wrong concerning the scriptures I used for the subject of repentance for salvation, but you also failed to backed up your doctrine, since you "rely strictly on scripture". I gave you some verses to...

I agree sir. If most would just believe what is written and stop adding to the verses various parts of the bible, it is very simple and easy to both see and understand.

I enjoyed your post sir. You made me chuckle a bit. And I have been saying the same as you for quite some time now, only, I don't tell them they are not saved, I say, "I question your salvation."

I'm going to guess by saying, you've been taught that doctrine by your church and/or pastor, right? Yes, it is simple and easy to understand, unfortunately it's not scripturally accurate or biblically true. I'm sure, like you, this doctrine was hammered into my thinking for years, until I sought...

Salvation does not take place because of anyone's repentance of sin, but because of their repentance of doubting the word of God, by believing the gospel, and acting on that belief to receive Jesus/the truth, personally,

Question. No offense intended, but if he's lost and you call him bro, short for brother, what does that make you? I too question many people's salvation here on CC, because they failed to see some of the simplest of doctrines, such as WOF. And I believe this in part because of what Jesus said...

Even as Jesus could do nothing without the Father, neither can we do any works of God without Jesus. Joh 6:57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. Joh 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of...

But as I said, it doesn't matter what one believes, even the demons believe those things to no avail. Until one acts on that which they believe in their heart, nothing will happen. Faith without a corresponding work is without power and effect.

What about, 2Ti 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. ? Isn't that written to the believers in Christ? I have another scripture of question. The bible says, both Jesus and the word of God are the power of God. Both of which are said...

That is the question. So you do believe we have been given some power from God, whatever that may entail and however small it may be. God said both DEATH and life is in the power of OUR TONGUE. Is it therefore the will of God for us to use His power to cause death and/or destruction?

The bible says, they would receive power AFTER the Holy Ghost comes on them. Was that referring to being filled with the Spirit or simply being born again? Specifically, what power have we received? What can we do with this so called power?

Jesus as Lord of your life, and that God raised him from the dead, like it is written.

One corresponding work for a specific belief. Speaking what one believes in their heart, would be an example of a corresponding work for a specific belief.

Act 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Do we have the same Spirit they received?
