22 | How Holy Is Marriage? | Matt 16:6 | KcabmI4 | 213613 | ||
Dear Val Maby you missed it in the (KJ) so Iam posting these from the (NASB) Iam also going to add some Brackets for you where I quoted thes verses. Num.14:18 (New American Standard Bible) 18- 'The LORD is slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, forgiving iniquity and transgression; :-(but He will by no means clear the guilty,)-: visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generations.' Exodus 34:7 (New American Standard Bible) 7- who keeps lovingkindness for thousands, who forgives iniquity, transgression and sin; yet :-(He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished,)-: visiting the iniquity of fathers on the children and on the grandchildren to the third and fourth generations." You then go on to say .” Notice in Psalms 52 David was forgiven, his sin was covered, and in verse five “You forgave the guilt of my sin.” This scripture does not sound correct does it? Psalm 52:5 (New American Standard Bible) 5- But God will break you down forever;He will snatch you up and tear you away from your tent, And uproot you from the land of the living. Selah. That is ok I looked for the right one and found the one you really meant. But we are not knowing when Psalm 32 was written. It could be before or after the time in question. Psalm 32:5 5- I acknowledged my sin to You,And my iniquity I did not hide;I said, " I will confess my transgressions to the LORD";And You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah. You then come to Psalm 51 "In Psalms 51 David was washed and made whiter than snow, verse seven." Psalm 51 (New American Standard Bible) A Contrite Sinner's Prayer for Pardon. 7- Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. You should take the time and go back to the Psalm 51. You will then be seeing all the way from vs.1 to the last vs. are all the pleadings for mercy. Iam sure that God did forgive David. It says he would in Num.14:18 and 34:7. Your parigraph about David I do not dispute He is a most revered man He was a man after God’s own heart David’s son with Bathsheba was chosen to be King – Solomon God made an everlasting covenant with David. Jesus is referred to as being in the lineage of David. But these are also true David committed adultery with Bathsheba David murdered Uriah David's first son with Bathsheba died because of the (SINS of the FATHER) otherwise "HE" would have been the next King This is another covenant made by God with David. Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house I will take thy wives before thine eyes and give them unto thy neighbour and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun. The child also that is born unto thee shall surely die. You are saying "The consequences of sin touched David’s family his remaining life." You are sure right with that statement according to the story we are discussing. "but each man/women was held responsible for their choices and decisions" Can you verify this statement with scripture? You finish with the quote I gave from Ex.34:7 But you add "The YLT leaves out “the guilty”. "I believe that makes a big difference." Exodus 34:7 (Young's Literal Translation) 7- keeping kindness for thousands, taking away iniquity, and transgression, and sin, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on children, and on children's children, on a third [generation], and on a fourth.' Just the leaving out "the guilty" does not change the fact of who is paying for the sin "not the father." He is punished by having to watch everyone else pay for his sin. Iam sorry if the translation I used did not meat up to your standards. But guilt was used in the bible I used and there would not be anyone paying for sin if there was not anyone "GUILTY." But that is ok with me . Go ahead and leave out GUILT. It took you 3 different bibles to get there. Tell me is the (YLT) your bible of prefferance? Or is it just the one you use when all else fails? Sincerely, KcabmI4 |

23 | Blessings A Hundred Fold | Mark 10:28 | KcabmI4 | 212328 | ||
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 |

24 | Why not Elisabeths home? | Luke 2:7 | KcabmI4 | 212456 | ||
Hello to you MJH Thank you for all of the different things you are saying could be the reasons Jesus was born in a stable. Iam guessing then what it is all comming down to is that Jesus was born as a human being and the circumstances of the time were what dictated where he was born. Just as it could be with regular humans. When he was comming to the Earth he was not going to be living as Diety. The term we are using today for this type of thing is . "Thats Life". Thank you again Have a hoppy 2009 Be Blessed KcabmI4 |

27 | 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 |

28 | Gods Love and Grace for you. | John 3:16 | KcabmI4 | 213719 | ||
One last try. I pray that your eyes will be opened to this truth for you. What I have done I did for you, please forgive me, but you gave me no recourse. 1 John 3 1Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. 2Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 3And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. 4Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 5And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 6Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. 7Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. 8He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. 11For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. 13Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you. 14We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. 15Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. |

30 | 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 |

31 | Iam having some questions | John 17:1 | KcabmI4 | 212362 | ||
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? Merry Christmas God Bless KcabmI4 |

32 | Iam having some questions | John 17:1 | KcabmI4 | 212390 | ||
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. May God be Blessing You and Your Family This Cristmas and all of the Year 2009 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 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 |

35 | Iam having some questions | John 17:1 | KcabmI4 | 212423 | ||
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 |

36 | Iam having some questions | John 17:1 | KcabmI4 | 212431 | ||
Part 1 Hello john This is being the second question of you. Iam having to make it in 2 peaces for you. Your question "The question has been asked, indirectly, and directly. Can we honestly say that we obey The greatest commandment?" "Can you say that you obey it?" I can only answer by using of the scripture. To be starting with Mark 12:30 is a referance to the begining part of the Law which was given by Moses. It is being written in Deut. But in the vs.4-9 Moses was telling the people. The things they are to be doing in their observing to be keeping of the Law. Deut. 6:4-9,25 4--- Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: 5--- (And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart,) and with all thy soul,) (and with all thy might.) 6--- ( And these words,) (which I command thee this day,) (shall be in thine heart:) 7--- ( And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.) 8--- (And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand,) (and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.) 9--- (And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house,) (and on thy gates.) It was only by the keeping of these Laws that the people gained their Reighteousness. And their Sanctiifcaton from 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.) 25--- ( And it shall be our righteousness,) (if we observe to do all these commandments) before the LORD our God, as he hath commanded us. But as Christians we are knowing that God has written His Law in our Hearts. And in our minds Having been Perfected. And Sanctified we have become the Righteousness of God in Christ. Thereby becomming dead to the law. It is not of works. But of Grace by Faith. So to be answering this question honestly for you. "YES" We can honestly say that we obey The greatest commandment! "YES" I can say that I obey it! Through Jesus Christ! Because He was keeping the whole Law. Heb. 10:14 14--- For by one offering (he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.) 15--- Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before, 16--- (This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days,) saith the Lord, (I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;) 17--- (And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.) 18--- (Now where remission of these is,) (there is no more offering for sin.) Rom. 7:4, 6, 8 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.) 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.) 8--- (But sin, taking occasion by the commandment,) (wrought in me all manner of concupiscence.) (For without the law sin was dead.) End of part 1 KcabmI4 |

Part 2 Hello john The natural men can never know these things. But as Christians "OUR" Minds have been Renewed our Eyes and Ears have been Opened. 11--- For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, (but the Spirit of God.) 12--- Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, (but the spirit which is of God;) (that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.) 13--- (Which things also we speak,) (not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth,) (but which the Holy Ghost teacheth;) (comparing spiritual things with spiritual.) 14--- (But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God:) (for they are foolishness unto him:) (neither can he know them,) (because they are spiritually discerned.) 15--- (But he that is spiritual judgeth all things,) (yet he himself is judged of no man.) 16--- (For who hath known the mind of the Lord,) (that he may instruct him?) (but we have the mind of Christ.) When these verses say clearly what they are saying. 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. Then this verse is used in the way it is being used. There is a term used for this kind of verse. I have read it before in this forum. Iam thinking it is called a "Prooving Scripture." To be prooving that Christians Sin. If this is being beleaved then the other 2 scriptures are being wrong. Or there is a contradiction in the scripture. We are all knowing that there are no contradictions in the Bible. So we have to be looking at all of the scriptures to find out which ones are the true and which ones are only being the Teachings of man. Or the Doctrins of man. Then it is comming to beleaving The Bible The Teaching or The Doctrin. Iam always choosing of the Bible for my truth. Not man. If Mark 12:30 is true then there should be scripture that is saying. What the Teaching and the Beleaf is saying. Mark 12:30 30--- And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. end of part 2 Iam hopping this is answering the questions you are having Your Brother KcabmI4 |

Hello John Thank you for your post. Yes my Christmas was wonderful as well. You are saying. "When we look at the whole of the Bible we see that there is but one way to be saved. God calls His own and His own hear Him." “For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;” Eph 2:8 "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;” John 10:27 Everything you are saying hear is being the truth. Iam agreeing at all with you on these matters. you are saying "Now in the Old Testament for example, (let’s look through the telescope) we see there were many men and women of God that were saved by the grace of God." Where is it saying these peoples of the Old Testiment "they were saved by the grace of God" meaning Salvation. Salvation is through faith Christ Jesus. According to the Scripture. The people in the Old Testiment were not saved as we know salvation. Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. 1 Thessalonians 5:9 9--- For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 Thessalonians 2:13 13--- But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: 2 Timothy 3:15 15--- And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. Hebrews 2:3 3--- How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; (which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord,) and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; Hebrews 5:9 9--- And being made perfect, (he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;) Hebrews 9:28 28--- So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. 1 Peter 1:10,-12 10--- Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: 11--- Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. 12--- Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. You are saying "And we know that when we are saved we are born again, so we know that all who are children of God are regenerate; they have been given the gift of indwelling Holy Spirit." The people in the Old Testiment were not born again. They could not be called the children of God because they were not regenerate. The only people in the Old Testiment that had the indwelling of the Holy Spirit were the Prophets. But that is not saying they were saved (regenerate) either. you are saying So now if we look at the lives of these Old Testament Saints, we can clearly see that through close examination, that, they sinned. Yes john you are speaking the truth. They did sin. But that was because they were under the Law Just look at Moses, (Num 20:8-12) when God clearly told him to speak to the Rock, Moses in anger and frustration struck the Rock with his staff, clearly disobeying the Command of God, which we know is a sin. Moses as his punishment for his sin. He was only alowed to see the promised land but God would not allow him to enter it. That was payment for his sin. Then we can look at the life of King David, (2 Sam 11) and see that he was not only an adulterer with Bathsheba, but also indirectly had Uriah her husband killed, so he was guilty as a murderer as well! David as his punishment. Had the son of the union die. That was payment for his sin. But Moses and David were not under Grace. They cannot be used as examples of sinning after salvation. Our sin has been taken by Jesus. We are forgiven. We are free from sin. Jesus has paid the price. John If it is being alright with you Iam going to be answering the last part of your post.separetly. Rom.7 Ref. It is being very important. To be having enough room to be answering properly. Your Brother In Christ KcabmI4 |

Hello to you Val You are saying alot of posts You are saying "the believers of the old testament believed God and it was counted to them as righteousness. (our word saved) Those of old looked forward to the cross." my answer These words are not the same meaning. The people of old might have looked forward to the Cross. But they were not having it . Or Jesus. So they were not SAVED as we are. RIGHTEOUSNESS: Source: ATS Bible Dictionary Rectitude, justice, holiness; an essential perfection of God’s character, Job 36:3; Isaiah 51:5-8; John 17:25; and of his administration, Genesis 18:25; Romans 3:21,22; 10:3. It is the wonder of grace that as the righteous guardian of the law, he can acquit the unrighteous. "The righteousness of Christ" includes his spotless holiness, his perfect obedience the law demands; and "the righteousness of faith" is that imputed to the sinner who believes in Christ. With reference to personal character, righteousness is used both for uprightness between man and man, and for true religion, Genesis 18:23; Leviticus 19:15; Isaiah 60:17; Romans 14:17; Ephesians 5:9. RIGHTEOUSNESS: Source: King James Dictionary 1. Purity of heart and rectitude of life; conformity of heart and life to the divine law. Righteousness, as used in Scripture and theology, in which it is chiefly used, is nearly equivalent to holiness, comprehending holy principles and affections of heart, and conformity of life to the divine law. It includes all we call justice, honesty and virtue, with holy affections; in short, it is true religion. 2. Applied to God, the perfection or holiness of his nature; exact rectitude; faithfulness. 3. The active and passive obedience of Christ, by which the law of God is fulfilled. Daniel 9. 4. Justice; equity between man and man. Luke 1. 5. The cause of our justification. The Lord our righteousness. Jer. 23. RIGHTEOUSNESS: Source: Easton's Bible Dictionary See Justification SALVATION: Source: ATS Bible Dictionary 1--- Means, strictly, deliverance; and so it is used of temporal deliverance, victory, in Genesis 14:13 1 Samuel 14:45. 2--- But as the spiritual deliverance from sin and death, through the Redeemer, Matthew 1:21, is a far greater salvation, 3--- so this word has come to be used mostly only in this moral and spiritual sense; and implies not only this deliverance, but also the consequences of it, namely, eternal life and happiness in the kingdom of our Lord, 2 Corinthians 7:10 Ephesians 1:13. 4--- It is most justly described as a "great salvation," Hebrews 2:3. 5--- The Hebrews rarely use concrete terms, as they are called, but often abstract terms. Thus, instead of saying, God saves them and protects them, they say, God is their salvation. 6--- So, a voice of salvation, tidings of salvation, the rock of salvation, the shield of salvation, a horn of salvation, a word of salvation, etc., are equivalent to a voice declaring deliverance; the joy that attends escape from a great danger; a rock where any one takes refuge, and is in safety; a buckler that secures from the attack of an enemy; a horn or ray of glory, of happiness and salvation, etc. 7--- Thus, to work great salvation in Israel signifies to deliver Israel from some imminent danger, to obtain a great victory over enemies. 8--- The "garments of salvation," Isaiah 61:10, refer to the splendid robes worn on festival days. The expression is used figuratively to denote the reception of a signal favor from God, such as deliverance from great danger. SALVATION: Source: Easton's Bible Dictionary This word is used of the deliverance of the Israelites from the Egyptians (Exodus 14:13), and of deliverance generally from evil or danger. 1--- In the New Testament it is specially used with reference to the great deliverance from the guilt and the pollution of sin wrought out by Jesus Christ, "the great salvation" (Hebrews 2:3). (See REDEMPTION; REGENERATION .) Salvation: Source: King James Dictionary !--- N; L, (salvo) To save. 2--- The act of saving; preservation from destruction, danger or great calamity. 3--- Appropriately in theology, the redemption of man from the bondage of sin and liability to eternal death, and the conferring on him everlasting happiness. This is the great salvation. Godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation. 2Cor. 7. 4--- Deliverance from enemies; victory. Ex. 14. 5--- Remission of sins, or saving graces. Luke 19. 6--- The author of man's salvation. Ps. 27. 7--- A term of praise or benediction. Rev. 19. I have made another part for you about Heb. 11 Your Brother KcabmI4 |
