If you knew you had one week to live, what would be different in your life with God?

[pottersclay]

Hello Jason I'm new new here so as far as I see from your posts you do not believe in osas and that you lead a sinless life for the most part is that correct?

 

[Jason0047]

We're all brothers and sisters, Jason.

Who did Jesus say who were his brothers and sisters?

 

[Mitspa]

Mt 25:42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

Correcting wrong or evil behavior or beliefs is not in conflict with being loving.

Most here are really not my brothers and sisters because they condone a sin and still be saved doctrine. Yes, I have prayed for my enemies many times. But there is no requirement that I am to make such prayer requests via by some public forum.

Jason - Did you read my post to you from a few days ago? You didn't respond to it so I figure you missed it. It's right here:

Who did Jesus say who were his brothers and sisters?

Ro 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Joh 13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

Roman Catholicism is unbiblical because they worship idols and pray to other god like entities besides God like Mary and the other saints. There are many other pagan elements in their worship of God, as well. In fact, I think the RCC is the woman that rides the beast in Revelation. So no. I do not in any way shape or form believe in Catholicism. Nor do I believe in Works Salvationism as they do. I believe God or Christ does the good work in the believer. A believer in and of himself cannot take credit for any work they do. If one is saved, then they have the LORD living within them (Because it is God who is eternal life and salvation). So if God lives in you, then the fruits of the LORD will be evident in your life. But if you bring forth evil fruit all the time (as a daily thing or as a way of your life), instead of good fruit in your life, then you are proving that you have not been truly born again spiritually. One is transformed and changed and new in Christ if they are a true believer (Because God transformed their heart and spirit and now He lives within them causing them to walk in His good ways --- See Ezekiel 36:26-27).

Hi Jason.

I think we are real close, here. At 18 years old, I asked the Lord into my life. I really felt that I had done what I should to be born, again. But as time went on, I realized that my "fruit" of my life was no better. This led to confusion and frustration. At age 32, I watched a video of Martin Luther. Romans 1:17 "...the just (righteous) shall live by faith." This really hit home. Having grown up a Roman Catholic, I was still counting on my deeds, works, and sins or lack there of, for my walk. When I realized what Luther discovered, I was able to die to my actions, and live by faith in Him. This born again experience was genuine. I thank God through Christ for it. As I have grown as a Christian for the last quarter century, I have still sinned. But I believe that they have reduced in volume and intensity all Because of Jesus' propitiation. Here is my point...

Once I was truly born again, OSAS became a fact. OSAS is only for those who have truly given their life to Jesus and been born again. Your contention about sins requiring repentance is true for those who have not received the Holy Spirit. But once God the Spirit lives within, No one can snatch the true believer from God. Born again is once for all, and so is the salvation it brings.

Maranatha

I have been ultra busy this week. So any post that requires a point by point Biblical reply is going to have to wait. But to answer briefly, do you believe the Westboro Baptist Church is saved according to your beliefs? What about tbose Christian churches that deny the Trinity? Do you understand what morals are? Right from wrong? I believe God is Holy and righteous and he will not condone or cover any willful rebellion done against Him. Not sure how you cannot see that. It's pretty basic.

 

[M33]

Jason,
The only determining factor in OSAS is being born again. Westboro, Unitarians, and the like are NOT born again. Stick strictly with born again believers, and they are OSAS...

Great dodge by the way!

Jason I do not know you at all but bro take the log out of your own eye before you deal with the splinters in others. Who are you to talk about someone's sins and to judge what you deem wrong.
I am sure God does not need your help in running this world. These post that the others have sent you can't be all wrong. Learn to be taught humble yourself, stop rewriting God's word.
These people and I are concerned about you and want to help and fellowship but you cause division and strife thinking your doing God a favor, let it go bro. This whole world is messed up and the church has a lot of issues but as it was once said to me in short "never speak ill of Jesus's bride".
Jesus said " he who is without sin cast the first stone" all I can say is watch out bro your living in a glass house.

Peace

Hi Jason.

Amen.....

 

[Ella85]

Prayer is sacred to me and I usually only include those of whom I think are true believers when it comes to such a thing.

This is the most UNBIBLICAL thing I have heard you say so far!
You only include those who are true believers???
ARE YOU SERIOUS

Jason you are a joke.

You are not a born again Christian
If you were you would not have just said that.


1 Timothy 2:1
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people,

James 5:16
Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.

PATHETIC!!!

We are all brothers and sisters.
This site is not for you.

I believe God is Holy and righteous and he will not condone or cover any willful rebellion done against Him. Not sure how you cannot see that. It's pretty basic.

Imagine a kid who gets all his clothing dirty in mud and his father is wealthy business man who dresses only at the best outfit. Now what will his father think of this kid? That he is none of his because of the dirty clothes and childish games he plays? Or rather that his father still loves his son just the same and he doesn't even ask the child to say sorry for he knows how children are and he loves his son.

This is how I believe God sees us. And I am sure you must have read somewhere from the bible that God is Love. But in your gospel there is no light and your responses here in forums indicate that you are void of God's love.
Lacking the other side of the coin which is love its pretty obvious what defines what you believe and how your opinions are.

Psalm 103:1-3 (ESV)

1 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and all that is within me,
bless his holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits,
3 who forgives all your iniquity,
who heals all your diseases,

 

[jsr1221]

Who did Jesus say who were his brothers and sisters?

God creates every single one of us, Jason. So yes. We are all His creations, therefore, we are all brothers and sisters under Jesus Christ. That includes people like Hitler. Those of ISIS. We all have free will, and that is an entirely different discussion. But it doesn't change the fact God creates every single one of us.

 

[jsr1221]

Jason, so an unbeliever isn't worthy of prayer? Are you forgetting you were an unbeliever at one point? If you really believe you don't sin, think again... Self righteousness shines so bright off of you, I need to wear sunglasses to speak to you.

 

[Sirk]

So any post that requires a point by point Biblical reply is going to have to wait.

Like... you mean wait forever?....we've been waiting so long that spiders have moved into our eye sockets.

 

[jsr1221]

You need to reply with Biblical points? Jason, today is Saturday as I write this post... Do you need Biblical proof for that? The sun is out. Do you need Biblical proof?
