1 | Supposed to "DO" something? | John 3:3 | Ken hepting | 91316 | ||
Earning salvation can't be done, so rest easy. I'm not saying that. I never have in this forum. By faith, my faith in Him, I am saved. BTW, that's the exstent of my faith. Now something happens: The righteousness of Christ for salvation is gifted, IMPUTED to me, that saves me. He saved me in the condition He found me but having said that He doesn't want to leave me that way. Now I have choice to make; to be born again and embrace the Great commandment or give so much lip service to Christ on Sunday and stay in 'self'. To begin to know God as Father or, just God. If I begin my walk in Grace and learn to live by THE FAITH of CHRIST and not my own, He IMPARTS, no gift here, to me His righteousness which reveals the MIND of the Father to me that brings me to "sonship" with the Father. Now that I am "in the WAY" I am enabled to see His kingdom and view the world from His perspective. If you need scripture for this c'mon back. |

3 | Saved, but not born again? | John 3:3 | Ken hepting | 91326 | ||
That's my dilemna. I'm not sure I can. Oh there's plenty there but I need to be satisfied I'm correct in applying the scripture.. However the fact that I might me correct is enough to challenge me. I witness an awful lot on Sunday to make me wonder and conclude I am correct because there can be no other answer to the thing I witness and the resentment I receive when enaging most in conversation concerning the things of God. I know God Grace is great and all thos epeople aren't damned but I can't see the witness for the Kingdom of God anywhere in the church. |

4 | Tares/wheat | John 3:3 | 4givn | 91467 | ||
Do you remember that "the tares must come up with the wheat"? And that Satan can appear "as an angel of light"? The enemy has sown his seed in amongst the church. It is no wonder that you see what you do, as I am sure many of us do. But we are to be "wise". What all do you "witness" on Sunday that makes you "wonder"? Do you REALLY feel you "can't see the witness for the Kingdom of God anywhere in the church"? Anywhere? Jesus said whatever we do to our brethren (feeding, clothing, visiting, etc.) we are doing to Him. Surely you must see SOME of this going on. What about evangelism? missions? Have you found any scripture yet for your contention that one can be saved but not born again? |

5 | Tares/wheat | John 3:3 | Ken hepting | 91469 | ||
Who are you and where do I find you in the "tree"? I don't think I should have to look for 'wheat and tares' to find a name to answer to. Or do I just call you 'Wheat and Tares'? |

My name is Dave, and I am not asking you to answer to me in any way. I am sorry if I have offended you in any way. That surely was not my intention. As far as I was concerned, we were engaged in a friendly dialogue and then all of a sudden you seem to get an attitude. Also, I don't understand what you meant by the "tree". |

7 | Tares/wheat | John 3:3 | Ken hepting | 91647 | ||
'Thread' might be a better name than 'tree'. 'Tree' is the name this forum gives it. This forums software is very frustrating. I apology for offending you, Dave. Apparently I did. Seems very few sign their name in this thing and when someone comes in from the side one, well it's like getting caught off guard. I really don't have an attitude but do get frustrated. Sorry. Regards...Ken |
