We have been through this already. Man is born dead in sin, we have no spiritual life which, is why we must be born from above. We are born body and soul only. We are born wrong from what God originally created. God is also soul, in the Son, Deity and humanity. There is nowhere in scripture...

Rubbish! If His word is working in and through us then we are not transgressing His commands.

You are going off topic. @Genez stated the sin nature is inherited from Adam only. Woman do not pass the sin nature down yet they have a sin nature because every woman has a father. You said you agreed 100%. Yet here you are arguing Mary had no part in the genetic makeup of Christ's blood. It is...

He proclaimed His victory to spirits, men are not spirits. There is nowhere in scripture where you will find men being called spirits. We are souls. It was the spirits who were disobedient in the days of Noah, the ones who are at present in chains, 2Pet.2:4 as the 1 Peter 3 reading states. I...

Having different blood isn't the issue. You are effectively saying every cell of Christ's body had Mary's DNA except His blood. Life doesn't work that way. And the "life is in the blood" is in reference to animals, not humans. Our human life is in our soul, not our blood. Our blood only carries...

The issue here is you said "confession and repentance is only the beginning of salvation". Christ is the beginning and end of salvation. Our response to His work is not what saves us, it is His promise to do what He said that saves. You can change your mind and confess till the cows come home...

So your soul remains unsaved at this stage? :confused: How can they be fully saved if they are still waiting for resurrection bodies? btw the spirits in prison are the fallen angels of Genesis 6 not those who were resting in Sheol, Paradise (Abraham's bosom) waiting entrance to heaven. Noah...

So Christ's body came from Adam but His blood which, is a part of His body, came directly from God and the sin nature is in every cell of our body except our blood? You come up with some weird ideas. :confused:

Considering that many first century Jews rejected their Messiah, I'm not so sure their understanding is what should be pursued. :unsure:

Either you misunderstood what he said or you have changed your mind as you said Christ's body had nothing to do with either Adam or Eve back in post#1745.

Typical of those who don't bother actually reading and thinking about what has been said.

Fine. You rely on yourself for your salvation. I hope you are a very, very, very good boy or else you may find yourself going down and not up. ;):)

It's those restrictions that make it free, free to be exactly what it is, whether that be God, man or a worm. You are the one who is wrong and without understanding when it comes to freedom. John 8:36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed. grace and peace.

No, so that means He cannot make ... Unless you want to declare God has no free will, you will need to rethink your definition.

Yes it is, it is simply a will bound to it's own nature. Your problem is you think freedom is without restraint. It is not and never has been.

No, His freedom is bound by His nature and character. There can never be such a thing as unrestrained freedom. It is an oxymoron.

One would think an educated person would understand it is with the will one makes a choice. No will, no choices. And freedom is always restrained, if not, you have chaos.

I think you are confusing receiving salvation and working one's salvation out. Salvation begins and ends with Christ. The Gospel is the power of God unto salvation. Rom.1:16 We don't get a part salvation when we believe the Gospel, we get fully saved. We have been given everything that...

That's what I said. There is nothing you can do to add to His work, believe it or not.

Did you notice I was stating who is responsible for our salvation, not giving a dissertation on how we work that salvation out?
