1 | Greek Question in Romans | Rom 7:25 | InGodITrust | 189940 | ||
Amen rzaac, Your answer is right on brother!! Exactly what I would have said had you not said it. While the Bible demands faith, our faith is a gift from God and not something we "muster up." The question so many Christians can't seem to understand is "everything, absolutely everything" is from God, through God and to God. While the Word seems to indicate we must do this, we must have that, we must be this, we all at times miss the whole point. "For it is God who is at work in you; both to will and to work for His good pleasure." Philippians 2:13 The Word as well as the Law points to our need and our lack of ability to do so. It is through prayer, humility, and yes faith, that we present ourselves each and every day to our Lord and beg Him to "give us the will, the desire, and yes the faith to live the life He has for us. "Without Me you can do nothing." Jesus said in John. Blessings my friend, God's Day to you, InGodITrust |

2 | Greek Question in Romans | Rom 7:25 | rzacc | 189941 | ||
And AMEN back to you. It is so refreshing to find a list that exhibits some depth of spiritual understanding. I have been involved in so many discussions with people who just do not make the connection. What do you think about the following?: One way I have come to look at our daily walk, and our struggle with our own failures and sins, is through the following acronym: I D I D. -as in "I did". I: Impotence. We must come to the realization that we are totally helpless, and can do nothing on our own. D: Dependance. As a result of our impotence, we must see ourselves utterly dependant upon Him and any good which comes from anything in our lives must come as a result of our complete dependance upon Him. I: Intimacy. In order to maintain any degree of consistancy, we need an intimate relastionship. D: Discipline. It's a long walk, and we learn by, and things get easier and more consistent, through repitition. We need discipline. Anyway, just some ramblings as a result of too much time to think lately...it's been a long winter! Coram Deo, ronz To you: Courage, Strength, Honor, and Unfathomable Grace ps: Someone has well-said: You Can Not Make Faith A Work. |

4 | Greek Question in Romans | Rom 7:25 | rzacc | 189944 | ||
It is the result of having struggled with the concept in class, and trying to explain it to students ... God created it. Coram Deo, ronz "If God requires of the sinner, dead in sin, that he should take the first step, then he requires just that which renders salvation as impossible under the gospel as it was under the law, since man is as unable to believe as he is to obey." C H Spurgeon |
