1 | What is eternal life? What is saved? | John 6:37 | SisterD | 15169 | ||
God wanted the Pharisees to turn from their "self righteous attitude" I am not self righteous...I KNOW that with out God I am LOST and undone and headed straight for a devils hell. It's GOD in us that works thru us to live the christian life...IF we are a willing vessel.....not our works...not our righteousness BUT HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS and HIS ALONE.....(we are nothen without him...BUT thru Him we are every thing He is... So you are tellen me that a person can except Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, repent of their sins, and turn around and live as they did just prior to their new conversion in to the family of God (backslide) and still be saved and enter the Kingdom of Heaven. I think not!!! As for what am I saved from...from the live of sin and death thru Jesus Christ our Lord. Yes no man is perfect and all have and will sin....BUT....its what we chose to do about that sin...that determines our finaly resting place. We CAN NOT profess to be "CHRISTAIN" a child of God and live our lives like we are satans own...we must love one and hate the other....sweet and bitter water do not run from the same facuet...good and evil have no company with each other....you are either a child of God and live as such or you are a child of satan.... the enemy of our souls and live as such...but we can not have BOTH.... if we willfully sin we have an advocate with the father...if we repent from the heart he is faithfull and just to forgive us and if we do not find that place of repentence we will die in our sins. The wages of sin is DEATH; but the gift of God is eternal life throught JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD. We can chose to walk away from that gift of eternal life at any time and live as WE please and not as God pleases...we are not able to live a christian live without GOD"S HELP...we must surrender our selves to him and live as he would have us to as to the best of our ability and as we grow in God thru the power of the Holy Ghost....we WILL take on the nature/bahavior that of Holiness and sin will be an easier thing to walk away from....yes again ALL have and will sin in some degree BUT how we respon to the sin is the key to life or death. Life with God or life with out God....For the wages of sin is DEATH....but the GIFT of God is eternal life THRU Jesus Christ OUR LORD...not thru our rebelling against God....It's either Heaven or its Hell...you can not have both now and receive heaven in the end. You know we all have our own minds and points of view and our degree of faith and beleif. I beleif the entire bible to be the word of God and I look to it as our road map to salvation...if we live as we are taught by God thru his teachings (the word) and aply them on a daily bases and seek Him for guidence and help and direction and ask for understanding and wisdom, he will give all of these tings to us and then some..... But the MOST important key to the life of being a child of God his help for the working of our salvation (he says to work out your own salvation with trembling and fear) not work as to deeds or fear as to affraid of God....meaning...study to show thy self approved...rightly dividing the word of God and with out the Holy Ghost we can do NONE of these thing as God would have us to....with out the Holy Ghost dwelling on the inside of us we will not make it to that promise land. He that is born of the flesh is flesh and he that is born of the Spirit is Spirit.(John 3;6) (Romans 8:13) (Galatians 5:16-26). By the way what type church do you attend if I may ask. If any. I go to the First United Penticostal Church in my home town. |

2 | What is eternal life? What is saved? | John 6:37 | Hank | 15193 | ||
My dear Sister D: You write that it is what we choose to do about our sins that determines our final resting place. I beg you to consider that it is what God through Christ chose to do for us when He chose us that determines our final resting place. This is no mere play on words or a semantic exercise; it is a fundamental doctrine that God draws us to Himself; our only "choice" is acceptance of His offer of salvation. The salient point of it all is that we ourselves are totally powerless to "do" anything at all about our sins. That is solely in the domain of Jesus Christ. Perhaps that is the thrust of what you really meant to say. --Hank | ||||||
3 | What is eternal life? What is saved? | John 6:37 | SisterD | 15202 | ||
Yes Hank that could very well be true...and as some of us are...not very good at explaini ng our sleves and its the enemies job to throut every thing that God sets out to do. It all got blown out of shape and miss taken on all fronts. Please for give me for making any unplesant statements and forgive me if I have angered any one. That surely is not nor was it ever my intentions. And yes I may stand to be corrected. Thanks guys... |

4 | What is eternal life? What is saved? | John 6:37 | Radioman | 15207 | ||
SisterD: He who is without error among us shall cast the first stone. In that case, you have nothing to worry about. :-) You certainly are entitled to express your beliefs here on the forum. I tend to become a tad emotional over certain issues, but as anyone can tell you, "Radioman's bark is worse than his bite." Actually, Radioman has no bite. Figuratively speaking, he is a toothless old lion who enjoys roaring a bit now and then, but who couldn't bite even if he wanted to. :-) Sincerely, how could anyone be angry with you when you have such a kind and gentle attitude? Welcome to the Forum. (I should have said that first before I roared at you. Sorry.) :-) I look forward to reading many more of your postings in the future. Bless you, Radioman |
