Hello to you John Hope you have had a good Christmas holiday I wiil be answering the second question of you first if you are not minding. "Did Peter sin when he would not eat with the Gentiles in the presence of those who opposed these things" Gal. 2:11,12 11--- But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. 12--- For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, (fearing them which were of the circumcision.) When we are seeing that Peter seperated himself. The reason he was seperating himself was because of the fear he had about what the ones from Jerusalem would say. Because he did already eat with them before they came. The answer to you would then be "NO" Peter did not sin. This is only my judgement being based upon his actions. And his motives for not eating with the Gentiles. But my judgement means nothing when I put it next to the scripture (word of God) (bible) 1 John 3:9 9--- Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 1 John 5:18 18--- We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. Could you also be answering this question. If you are not agreeing with mine. Iam working on the other question for you Your brother KcabmI4 |

Hello to you again Val Hope you have been having a Blessed Holiday Iam happy to be helping to you in your searching. Hear are ther scriptures you have asked for. Iam Glad that you have read all the scriptures in the thread. Proverbs 15:33 The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility. Proverbs 18:12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility. Proverbs 22:4 By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and lif Acts 20:19 Serving the LORD with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews: Colossians 2:18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, Colossians 2:23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh. 1 Peter 5:5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Love in the LORD your brother in Christ KcabmI4 |

Hello to you Val It is strange to me that the first 2 lines of my post are the only thing you are making a comment on. Did you not read the rest of my post? I used 15 different scriptures. I would be saying to you that approximate 75 percent of my post is scripture. So to be answering your question. "NO" Iam not saying "that a born again christian no longer sins?" The scripture that I posted has said it. These are not what Iam saying they say. These are not the doctrins of a religion. These are saying what they say by the Holy Spirit as he moved upon holy men to record the words of God for us in the Bible. If you would read all of the posts of mine to stjohn. Then you would be seeing there are alot more scriptures. That are saying the same thing. There are litterally hunderads of them if you have ears to hear. And Eyes to see. These words that we are using in our daily life with other christians. Iam Forgiven I have Freedom Iam Justified I have Salvation Iam Sanctified I have been Purified I have been Redeemed. All of these are what we "HAVE RECEIVED" from GOD upon our salvation. They are not things we have to work out in our lives for them to be attributed to us by God. That would then be by WORKS. And we all know and agree that it is by Grace that we are saved through Faith. And that not of ourselves lest any man should boast. How Soverign is God in our lives? Is it impossable for Him to have given to us absolute freedom from sin? Thereby allowing us to come into His Rest. Because we have ceased from our labours. As God has ceased from His. Dear Sister Val, regarding your question "Are you saying that a born again christian no longer sins?" Are you saying that a born again christian does? 1 John 3:9 9--- Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 1 John 5:18 18--- We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. John 1:13 13--- Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. With these kinds of scriptures how do we refute them? Any scripture that you will find that does refute them would then be a "Contradiction" of scripture. Iam saying this because these are direct statements made by God. Which have been added into our canon of the scriptures. They are not an interpratatin of them by scholars. There then is a question. Why would anyone that has been given freedom from sin want to live any longer therein. He who is free is free indeed. Why would we want to beleave anthing less of God? Our Father has given us Foregivness from sin. Because we have asked this of Him. He has not given to us a stone instead. You see we all have a choice to make. It is not weather we will Sin or not. But weather we will walk in the Flesh or in the Spirit. This is the renewing of our minds. Because these things are spiritually descerned. If you walk in the Spirit you will not fulfill the lusts of the Flesh. Have yourself a Merry Christmas and be Blessed in the comming yr. Your brother in Christ KcabmI4 |

Hello stjohn When we are receiving Jesus as savior we receive a new nature. This new nature is his nature. This nature of Jesus cannot sin. Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 1 John 3:9 9--- Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 1 John 5:18 18--- We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. John 1:13 13--- Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. When we are becomming saved (born again) we are receiveing the nature of Jesus. But we are also keeping everything we had before we are saved. We become dead to the flesh. And alive to the spirit Rom. 8:10 10--- And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 1 Pet. 3:18 18--- For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. Rom. 7:25 25--- I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. Before we were being saved, we were ruled only by the deceitful lusts of the flesh. Galatians 5:24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. Ephesians 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; Then our mind is renewed by God. To righteousness and holyness Eph. 4:23,24 23--- And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; 24--- And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. After we are saved we seek after spiritual things. We start reading the Bible. This is something we are never doing before we are becomming saved. But now we are having the Spirit of God dwelling inside of us. And our new nature. The nature of Jesus because we are born of God. Psalm 119:105 105--- Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. John 6:63 63--- It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. We have been brought into the Perfect Law of liberty by Jesus sacrifice for us. This Liberty means we cannot sin. James 1:22-25 22--- But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23--- For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24--- For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25--- But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

Hello crystal12583 You were wanting opinions. How about some scripture instead. You have 5 things that are bothering you. I will answer them in order of the importance to God. 1--- But in the past when I would go to my home town I would fall right back into it again. 2--- Now I avoid my old life like the plauge, 3--- But now I feel like I've gone to far. 4--- I know I willfully sinned and I am prepared to face God for what I have done to him. 5--- Is it to late for me? no.5 question) No it is not to late for you. If you are saved you will not loose your salvation. Eph. 1:13,14 13--- In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14--- Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. no.4 question) Who has told you that you have sinned. My answers are not to condone your behaviour. They are only to be giving to you the truth. Rom. 8:1 1--- There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Matthew 15:17-19 17--- Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught? 18--- But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. 19--- For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: . Mark 7:15-23 15--- There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man. 16--- If any man have ears to hear, let him hear. 17--- And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable. 18--- And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him; 19--- Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats? 20--- And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. 21--- For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, 22--- Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: 23--- All these evil things come from within, and defile the man. no.2 question) You have been doing good to avoid your old life. Keep it up. 2 Cor. 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? no.3 question) The feelings of overreacting are normal. That is your flesh wanting to go back to the old life. Also it is Satan trying to justify to you your going back to it. Galatians 5:24 24--- And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. Ephesians 4:22 22--- That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; Colossians 3:9 9--- Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; no.1 question) This is temptation you are dealing with. Ask God to help you. Matthew 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. Hope these will help you Merry Christmas God Bless KcabmI4 |

Hello stjohn You are saying "This is what is part of our sanctification." What are these other parts of us being sanctified? Iam not seeing where it is saying that the sanctification of us is being a process that is taking time to finally happen. The act to sanctify. Is the setting apart for the service of God. The people were told to sanctify themselves. That was only able to be done by them by the keeping of the Law The Jews had to keep the law for them to be sanctified by God. Lev 20:7,8 7--- (Sanctify yourselves) therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God. 8--- And ye shall (keep my statutes,) and do them: (I am the LORD which sanctify you.) God is the one doing the sanctifing of us. By the sacrifice of Jesus. This is taking place when we are accepting Jesus as our saviour. Eph. 2:5,8 5--- Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 8--- (For by grace are ye saved through faith;) and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: When we are sinning it is because we are trying to be keeping the Law. But it is saying we are being dead to the Law. And that we do not and cannot commit sin. And why. Romans 7:4 4--- Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become (dead to the law) by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. Romans 7:6 But now we are (delivered from the law,) that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter. Romans 7:8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For (without the law sin was dead.) Galatians 2:19 19--- For I through the law am (dead to the law,) that I might live unto God. Galatians 2:21 21--- I do not frustrate the grace of God: for (if righteousness come by the law,) then Christ is dead in vain. 1 John 3:9 9--- (Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin;) (for his seed remaineth in him:) (and he cannot sin,) (because he is born of God.) We are then becomming the righreousness of God in Christ. Through his Grace. God imputes righteousness. But He does not impute Sin. Because through Jesus We are dead to the law Rom. 4:6 6--- Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom (God imputeth righteousness without works,) Rom. 4:8 8--- Blessed is the man to whom the (Lord will not impute sin.) Rom. 4:11 11--- And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that (righteousness might be imputed) unto them also: Rom. 4:22 22--- And therefore it was (imputed to him for righteousness.) Rom. 4:23 23--- Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; Rom. 4:24 24--- (But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed,) if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Rom. 5:13 13--- (For until the law sin was in the world:) (but sin is not imputed when there is no law.) If we are trying to be keeping the Law then we are beconning sinners that need a saviour. The Bible is saying we have been washed sanctified and justified 1 Cor. 6:11 11--- And such were some of you: (but ye are washed,) (but ye are sanctified,) but (ye are justified) in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. This is saying we are sanctified. Not that we are becomming sanctified. Hebrews 10:10 10--- By the which will (we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ) (once for all.) You are saying we are not perfect. This is saying we are perfected forever by Jesus Hebrews 10:14 14--- For by one offering he hath (perfected) (for ever them that are sanctified.) This is saying if we have been partakers of the Grace of God by repentance. We will not be able to do it again. And why. Hebrews 6:4-6 4--- For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, (and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,) 5--- (And have tasted the good word of God,) and the powers of the world to come, 6--- (If they shall fall away,) (to renew them again unto repentance;) (seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh,) (and put him to an open shame). This is saying if we sin we will be receiving a sorer punishment for those sins. And why Hebrews 10:29 29--- Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, (wherewith he was sanctified,) an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

Hello flyman Thank you for the responce you have given to me. Ok - - - You say you want to have litteral translation. Matthew 5:29 29--- And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. Matthew 5:30 30--- And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. Matthew 18:8 8--- Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. Matthew 18:9 9--- And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire. Mark 9:43-48 43--- And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 44--- Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 45--- And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 46--- Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 47--- And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: 48--- Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. So litterally speaking you might be in for a hard time in this life we call Christianity. The sacrptures I have used are the same quotations by different authors in the different Gospels. As you havebecause. Doesn't that prove the context, the commands, the message even more so? When all the Gospel authors reveal the same teachings of Jesus, it emphatically drives home the point, does it not? God Bless you in His Love KcabmI4 |

Hello Rolff But many who are rich here on earth will be poor in heaven and the poor on earth will be rich in heaven (my loose translation.) We are seeing in this scripture Matt. 20:1-16 that there were people that were hired to be working in a field. My beleaveing of this scripture is . Jesus was speaking to the Jews. Because it is said that he always spoke to them in parables. He was telling them that the ones that were last. The Gentiles would be comming to him first. And that the Jewish people which were first in Gods heart. Would be last to come to him. When the time of the Gentiles was come full. Again in another scripture Luke 13:22-30 we are seeing Jesus is again teaching the Jews. In there cities and villages. Even though they call themselvs Jews that will not be sufficient. they will see Abraham Isaac Jacob all the Prophets. Even the Gentiles from the N. E. S. W. enter the Kingdom before them. It is my beleaving that when Jesus said these same things to the Disciples. Matt. 19:30 Mark 10:31 which is really the same account. He was only refering them to what he had tought the Jews in his parable. But they would be receiving a reward in his Kingdom for following Him. Merry Christmas KcabmI4 |

72 | Iam having some questions | John 17:1 | KcabmI4 | 212309 | ||
Hello to you stjohn This is sounding very confusing to me. First you are saying "By the indwelling Holy Spirit, we no longer are held captive to a sinful life" When we are accepting of Jesus into our lives then we are forgiven our sins. Then you are saying. "and when we fail, we know He will keep us" If this failing of us is true. Is not this meaning we are still being held captive to a sinful life? What happened then to the forgivness when we accepted him? Then you are saying "He will forgive us our sins, and wash us and impute righteousness unto us" I think you are saying when we are failing he will be doing these things for us. But if this is true what happend to the first time he washed us and imputed righteousness to us? Are you saying that we are only forgiven past sins? That we are having to be washed and imputed with his righteousness all over again? Many times? Because I am beleaving that when we are becomming saved by Jesus for our sins. He washes us clean then the righteousness of God is imputed to us. It is said we are the righteousness of God in Christ.Rom. 3:22 This is the righteousness of God 1John 3:4-9 If we are failing as you are saying this is meaning we are loosing the righteousness of God. Which is not possable for this to be happening to us because we are having been sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise until the day of redemption Eph. 4:30 we cannot lose our salvation. If we are sinning then the righteousness of God and the Holy Spirit are not being very strong. Because you have said "By the indwelling Holy Spirit, we no longer are held captive to a sinful life" Iam not understanding why you are saying we can fail when it is saying we cannot. Thank you KcabmI4 |

Hellow to you people of the forum Iam lookin at the thread where the 2 deleations are 1 is posted at 3:11 which was to jlhetrick. 2 is posted at 4:28 which was to Wild Olive Shoot. But flyman172 made 2 posts to Wild Olive Shoot the first one was at 4:23 Which is the same time as Iam making my post to him. Iam seeing this when it is happining. That was making me to think that flyman172 was on the forum and maby he would be answering to me right away so I was waiting for him but his next post was to Wild Olive Shoot and it was deleated. It was a short post at 4:28 that was in connection with the first one he made to Wild Olive Shoot. flyman172 has not answered either of the 2 posts I made to him. Maybe this will be solving the problem of the 2 disappearing posts. Just my 2 Euros. lol Merry Christmas to all KcabmI4 |

Hello flyman172 From what I am seeing of the answers you are giving. They are not answers at all. You are just preaching. I beleave that you do not care to answer. Think about this. You are not a good steward over the things you have been given by others. Because you have been wasting the time of everyone that have in good faith answered your questions. If you are beleaving what you are preaching. Then go for it. Give all you have to the poor. That includes the computer your using. These 10 quotations you are using. They are the same quotations by different authers. In different Gospels they have just been repeated 1--- Matt 10:38 - Jesus said, "And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me." 1--- Luke14:27 - "And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple. 2--- Matt 19:21, - Jesus said that in order to inherit eternal life, be perfect, sell everything you have, give to the poor then follow him. 2--- Mark 10:17-21 - Jesus said to inherit eternal life, sell whatever you have, give to the poor, you will have treasure in heaven and go follow him. 2--- Luke 12:32-33 - Jesus said do not be afraid, sell your possessions and give to the poor, store your treasures in heaven that your heart be there as well. 2--- Luke 18:22 - "Sell everything you have and give to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come follow Me." 3--- Luke 14:33 - He said whoever does not give up all that he owns cannot be his disciple. 3--- Mark 10:29-30 - Jesus promises that anyone who gives up everything he owns for the sake of the gospel will receive a hundred times more than what he gave up, now in this time and in the world to come. 4--- Matt 6:25-34 - Jesus said, do not plan or prepare because God will provide. This passage falls well into the theme and context of what Jesus is commanding about selling your possessions. Since God will provide, there is no need to worry. Be perfect and commit. This last scripture you have used cannot be counted Luke 14:26 Because you just do not understand it. You are taking everything in a literal sence. So Iam adding these for you in there place. 1 Corinthians 3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. Hebrews 5:13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 1 Peter 2:2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: Blessings KcabmI4 |

Hello flyman172 2Cor.8:9-15 9--- For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. Jesus gave up all for us. His example to us as to what it takes for someone to be perfect. But we can not be perfect. That is why Jesus had to come to save us. Matt.19:20,21 20--- The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? 21--- Jesus said unto him, (If thou wilt be perfect,) go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. Some people might call his remarks sarcasm, while others would be saying that Jesus was proving to us. He was the only person EVER to be perfect in ALL aspects of his life. Acts 5 1--- But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, 2--- And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 3--- But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? 4--- Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. 5--- And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things. 6--- And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him. 7And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in. 8--- And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much. 9--- Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out. 10--- Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. This story about Ananias and Sapphira is showing us. "WE" are not told by Jesus to GIVE UP ALL of our posessions! Everything God has given to you you are having the power over. It is the Heart in our giving that he cares the most about. Ananias and Sapphira had a wrong heart. They wanted to get praised by other people for giving so much. We only need to be willin to give everything we have if He GOD asks for it. If God does ask for everything you have you are most assuridly going to know. It will be in your heart. You will not question weather you should give all or not you will just do it. This is more important to God than all of your posessions. Proverbs 21:3 To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice. John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. Now going back to 2 Cor. 8:9-15 These verses are concerning giving to brothers. But you can see how the giving was being done by the church people. 10--- And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago. 11--- Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have. 12--- For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not. 13--- For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened: 14--- But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality: 15--- As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack. Everything we are being told to us by Jesus is easy to be intreated. Do not complicate things for yourself. Loving you in Jesus KcabmI4 |

76 | Jesus Died for all, why speak in parable | John 17:9 | KcabmI4 | 212234 | ||
flyman172 This is all that is being needed for a person to be becoming saved? John 3:16,17 (3.) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth should not parish, but have everlasting life. (4.) For God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Ephesians 2:7,8 (1.) For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of ourselves it is the gift of God: (2.) Not of works, lest any man should boast. Romans 10:9,10 (9.) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. (10.) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. KcabmI4 |

77 | Iam having some questions | Not Specified | KcabmI4 | 212211 | ||
John17:14-19 What is it meaning when Jesus is saying. We and Him are not being of this world? I have put the marks around the question parts. if that is ok? 14--- I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, (because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.) How are we being kept from evil? 15--- I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, (but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.) Again He is saying that we are not of the world, as He is not also 16--- (They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.) What is meaning when he is saying we are to be sanctified? 17--- (Sanctify them through thy truth:) thy word is truth. Jesus is saying He sends us into the world as He was by God. 18--- (As thou hast sent me into the world,) (even so have I also sent them into the world.) He then is sanctifying Himself so we will be also sanctified through the truth. 19--- (And for their sakes I sanctify myself,) (that they also might be sanctified through the truth.) Thank you KcabmI4 |

79 | Speaking in Parables | Luke 8:10 | KcabmI4 | 212189 | ||
Hello to you again flyman172 thank you for answering. OK You are sounding to me to be very confused and synical because of the answers you have recieved. I will be answering the questions for you that I have saked of you. 1--- Who was Jesus speaking to in these parables? The Deciples, The Jews, The Gentiles. 1--- At the time Jesus was speaking parables he was speaking to the Jews. They had to be rejecting Jesus as the Messiah to them for the Salvation to be comeing to the rest of the world. The Isa. 6 scripture is what is called a judgement on the Jews. And Jesus fulfilled the prophesyby speaking to them in parables. 2--- Who does have the right to know the meanings of the parables? 2--- Jesus answers the deciples in Matt. 13:7 that answer to them is also being to us who are beleaving in Jesus. As you are seeing in Jesus answer he is talking about the Kingdom Of God. Not Salvation. The understanding that all of those on the outside not understanding that they will not be gitting salvation is not the truth. He is saying that those that do have salvation are the only ones that will be able to be having ears to hear about the Kingdom and understand and eyes that they will be seeing the kingdom. 3--- Why did Jesus be speaking to them in these parables? The fulfilling of prophesy yes but more. 3--- That answer is in answers 1 and 2. 4--- Why would he not want them to be understanding of them? The perpose of him. 4--- That answer is found in Matt 13 and in answers 1 and 2. 5--- What are the parables being about? The different things spoken about. 5--- That answer is clear from Jesus himself. He says that the parables are about the Mysteries of the Kingdom That is why he is always speaking to the Jews in Parables. It is Not given to them to know. They for awile have lost the Kingdom promised to them. And it has been given to the world. This is called The time of the Gentiles. 6--- What is the teaching by Jesus for them? The different things they can be learning. 6--- The things we can be learning from the parables are the things of the Kingdom. How we can enter. Who can enter. How it opperates. What our functions in it are. They are not aligories or proverbs like some people have been teaching.They do not teach us some religious truth so we will be living better lives as Christians 7--- Where these parables only for the time of Jesus speaking of them? And for us today also. 7--- They were not spoken only for those people. They are for us today as well so we can be knowing about the Kingdom also. Maby if you are doing a word search of Parables then you can be seeing them all together and be understanding them better. I am sorry that my first answer to you was not what you wanted. Iam hopping that this one is. May the Love of God Give You Peace KcabmI4 |
