    Going crazy: How can I tell if it's me or everyone else?

    ;) I used to think that it was me. It couldn't be everyone else. I'm the one constant. But then I got a little bit older and a little bit wiser, and now I'm sure, it's you guys, you're all crazy. :p

    OSAS origins and comparison

    If you have the Spirit indwelling, you are in Christ and justified and born again. For one to lose salvation, one must then lose the Spirit of God indwelling, God's seal. That cannot happen. It doesn't matter how, it cannot happen. All the verses that you posted should be seen as things that...

    5 minutes is not enough time to edit a post.

    A few months back, my brother got a text from my cousin, who is also a man. My cousin said in the text that he had to go because he had to do his hay. Farm boy. The text was self corrected to 'I have to do my hair'. lol My brother pointed that out and they both got a good laugh.

    Going crazy: How can I tell if it's me or everyone else?

    Just be careful. Listening to the ten year old angel on the one shoulder will get you into all kinds of trouble. I learned that on a giant water slide back when I was in my mid thirties. On my way down (feeling every bump) all I could do is pray that it would end fast. Word's of wisdom, listen...

    Going crazy: How can I tell if it's me or everyone else?

    Crush, kill, destroy! That was so cool. Funny, I remember this phrase "Indubitably William", but AI says Doctor Smith never said it.

    Having dyslexia even compounds the problem. I go to great lengths to try to make my posts readable. That's' sometimes a work in progress. I always see other things that need fixed later. Like the Scripture that I posted was wrong, but I only notice that after I can set my curser arrow on it...

    @lrs68 @Bible_Locket @Blade God's seal of the Holy Spirit can only be broken by Him or one He appoints. That's the significance of the seal. It's God's seal. Just like the seal on the cave where Jesus' body was laid for three days (Matthew 27:66). The Romans soldiers guarding that cave would...

    OSAS origins and comparison

    Hey Randy. OSAS is a modern expression, but the idea of eternal security is everywhere in Scripture. Jesus promising that He will finish a work that He has begun in us (Philippians 1:6). He is the Author and Finisher of that life, called faith (Hebrews 12:2), after we first believe. We are also...

    Was Judas Iscariot saved, or was he not?

    From my understanding, the promises of the NT were not yet in play. Pentecost, and the NT indwelling that placed believers in Christ was still future. So, I believe what Judas had lost was the promise of salvation, and not the literal salvation. He was not yet sealed with the Holy Spirit. It's...

    Romans 3:10-11 "There is none righteous, ...who understands, ...who seeks after God, no, not one;

    Paul, I stand by what I said, Galatians 5:16-18 is speaking of the Holy Spirit not our spirit. This game playing has gone on too long. Have a nice day. Dave

    Thread of OT types pointing to NT realities.

    Was this one mentioned yet? OT manna was a type of Jesus. John 6:32-35 Then Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives...

    Thread of OT types pointing to NT realities.

    Hey Fredrick, I'm reading you post two different ways, and I'm not sure which applies. If this is what you meant let me know. I believe that it's Jesus Who was elect from the foundations of the world. We become elect with Him [from the foundations of the world] when we are placed into Him...

    Romans 3:10-11 "There is none righteous, ...who understands, ...who seeks after God, no, not one;

    Jesus' Spirit, is the Holy Spirit, and did not need to be remade in His image as you claimed. Our being "perfected", or matured is a process for our spirit as believers that begins when we are placed into Christ and led by the Holy Spirit. Galatians 3:2-3 This only I want to learn from you...

    Romans 3:10-11 "There is none righteous, ...who understands, ...who seeks after God, no, not one;

    Some of them do use the word "the", also many times defining the ones that don't. Plus some actually say "Spirit of God", or "Spirit of Christ", or context reveals very clearly that it's the Holy Spirit, not ours. The context in Galatians 5 shows clearly it's not our spirit, but the Holy Spirit...

    Thread of OT types pointing to NT realities.

    Matthew 2:15 Out of Egypt This quotation IS from Hos. 11:1, which speaks of God's leading Israel out of Egypt in the Exodus. Matthew suggests that Israel's sojourn in Egypt was a pictorial prophecy, rather than a specific verbal one such as v. 6; cf. 1:23. These are called "types" and are always...

    Romans 3:10-11 "There is none righteous, ...who understands, ...who seeks after God, no, not one;

    By Gantsa standards, didn't Eve rat on Satan? Sounds like an argument against organized crime. :) But I agree. Eve didn't even have witness protection against Satan. Dave

    Romans 3:10-11 "There is none righteous, ...who understands, ...who seeks after God, no, not one;

    Hi Paul These are two different spirits. One is you, the other is God. Romans 8:16, John 3:6 NKJV Galatians 5:16-18 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary...

    Romans 3:10-11 "There is none righteous, ...who understands, ...who seeks after God, no, not one;

    Galatians 5:16-18 is walking in the Holy Spirit as opposed to our flesh, not our spirit. That's the point. I gave an easy way to bypass all the abuses by using the NKJV, which makes the distinction between our spirit and the Holy Spirit. Use your Bible and the Holy Spirit. I only mentioned the...

    Romans 3:10-11 "There is none righteous, ...who understands, ...who seeks after God, no, not one;

    I think that Galatians 2:20 is speaking of our spiritually being crucified with Jesus, and then [implied] spiritually raised up with Him. Here's the other half of the equation. Ephesians 2:6 and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, When we...
