21 | Who are the Pentecostals? | Acts 1:8 | Ken hepting | 100705 | ||
I'm a Penetecostal in as much as I believe in what happened at Pentecost is still pertinent and necessary to today's Christian life. For one to be made perfect in God and do that which God purposes in our life i.e., become a son unto Him, the power to do so must come from the outside. Read Acts 1 [the whole chapter] if you're just saved. See where the Lord gives instructions to the disciples [who are born again in John 20] then make some comparisons with what I've posted below. Now Ref. with Ezekiel 44:17 (NASB) "And it shall be that when they enter at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and wool shall not be on them while they are ministering in the gates of the inner court and in the house. Because: Ezekiel 44:18 (NASB) "....... they shall not gird themselves with anything which makes them sweat. In other words God won't tolerate our self effort [represented here by "wool"] mingled with His Holy Spirit activity [Linen]. Oil burning here and not wick burning. Now what does Acts 1 say about being "clothed/Endued"? |

22 | "My witnesses?" | Acts 1:8 | Ken hepting | 100704 | ||
The word "Witness" has it's meaning in the same root as "Martyr". Does that help? What does that say to anyone? | ||||||
23 | Last words spoken by Christ on the Cross | Bible general Archive 2 | Ken hepting | 100702 | ||
Because there was total of "four" things He said. | ||||||
24 | Luke, Jesus, and the good theif | Luke 23:40 | Ken hepting | 100629 | ||
[Why did Jesus tell the good theif that He would see him in Heaven "that day" whe in the Apostle's Creed we say that Jesus "decended to the dead" for three days. Jesus was resurrcted on the third day and stayed for 50 more before ascending into Heaven. How do you reconcile those two staements?] Jesus didn't go the Heaven but to paradise and set the captives free. Paradise--The good side of hell where there is no terror or torment. A place where the righteous/blameless went when they died because they died in their [Adamic] sin since Jesus had not yet died on the cross that they could enter Heaven. |

25 | Is the sin nature a substance or mindset | Phil 3:9 | Ken hepting | 100449 | ||
Try this, Pam "Choosing to Partake of the Divine Nature" Because we have come out of the divine nature, which chooses to be divine, we must choose to be divine, to be of God, to be one with God, loving and living as he loves and lives, and so be partakers of the divine nature. Otherwise we perish. Man cannot originate this life. It must be shown him, and he must choose it. God is the Father of Jesus and of us—of every possibility of our being. But while God is the Father of his children, Jesus is the father of their sonship, for in him is made the life which is sonship to the Father—the recognition, in fact and life, that the Father has his claim upon his sons and daughters. We are not and cannot become true sons and daughters without our will willing his will, our doing following his making. It was the will of Jesus to be the thing God willed and meant him, that made him the true Son of God. He was not the Son of God because he could not help it, but because he willed to be in himself the Son that he was in the divine idea. So with us: we must be the sons we are. We must be sons and daughters in our will. And we can be sons and daughters, saved into the bliss of our being, only by choosing God for the Father he is, and doing his will—yielding ourselves true sons and daughters to the absolute Father. Therein lays human bliss—only and essential. The working out of this our salvation must involve pain, and the handing of it down to them that are below must ever involve pain. But the eternal form of the will of God in and for us is intensity of bliss….George McDonald |

26 | Is the sin nature a substance or mindset | Phil 3:9 | Ken hepting | 100439 | ||
[Please stop arguing and answer my questions. Is the sin nature a substance or a mindset? Has the sin nature been eradicated and replaced by the new nature? Or does the sin nature remain in the believer and battle against the new nature? Is the sin nature the same thing as the flesh? What is the new nature? Is it God in me or is it a part of me that is a new creation? Is the new nature a substance or a mind set?] Who's arguing? You asked Joe, not me. The Bible says the flesh wars against the Spirit therefore one needs to ask the meaning of the term "flesh". Is the "flesh" you? your soul? Are YOU just someone/something just caught in the middle ....Or are you [us] an autonomous being able to see both [clue here] "natures" when we are born again? Does John 3.3,5 enable us to see both natures as well as the kingdom of God? I think so. What do you think? [PS Ken, I'm glad you found the Keswick article helpful to you.] Yes. I was wondering if there was anybody before me who thought about things as I did. Still can't see how they strayed and went into [What I believe to be] error on somethings. |

27 | Those that live blameless will see Jesus | Matt 28:18 | Ken hepting | 100372 | ||
[Ken please elaborate with Scripture. Where does God's Word say that "Those that live blameless will see Jesus"? Isn't this a works based salvation?] Did Job ever see Jesus? |

28 | Scriptural support of your position? | Matt 28:18 | Ken hepting | 100356 | ||
Rev. 20:12 (NASB-U) And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds. What book will your name be written in and why? |
||||||
29 | Scriptural support of your position? | Matt 28:18 | Ken hepting | 100352 | ||
You wrote: "Where there is no law sin [the penalty for being born in it] is NOT imputed." (Where does Scripture say this is so? pbs) Romans 5:13 (NASB-U) for until the Law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. |

30 | Scriptural support of your position? | Matt 28:18 | Ken hepting | 100351 | ||

[First of all, NO ONE except Jesus CHrist has lived a blameless life] Job did. |
||||||
32 | A couple of questions | Matt 28:18 | Ken hepting | 100287 | ||
What else did I say that you understand so that we don't go off on a "rabbit run"? 2 Thes. 2:12 (KJV) That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. So what damns a person after he's been told the truth about salvation that is his? |
||||||
33 | Are you quite sure about that? | Eccl 11:6 | Ken hepting | 100152 | ||
[When Jesus was here he had no doubt. He said he knew the father was always with him. He never had that little doubt. He did always the things that please the Father. But you do not. Sometimes you do not know whether you do or not. That's the truth. Please don’t say it’s because Jesus was or is God. Please read on] Jesus was alone in the wilderness and when on the cross. No presence of God "felt" here. He was totally alone with just the assurance of the written word and His own faith the father would perform all He purposed. Your post is very insightful and deserves thought by everyone who seeks intimacy with Father. The examples you site are kingdom of God experiences. |

35 | Who, does the Bible say, are the "elect" | NT general Archive 1 | Ken hepting | 100097 | ||
[Do you agree with my definition of "elect"? If not, please provide me with your definition and which passages support it.] I agree with it, John, but your desire is to take it beyond that based or a poor, very poor interpretation which lead to all sorts of distruction. It's not unlike what a cultist might do....Anyone here got a NWT Bible? |

What exactly do you mean by 'we'? | ||||||
37 | How would you make textual decisions? | 1 John 5:7 | Ken hepting | 99839 | ||
What you are claiming is that a reading (1 John 5:7-8), which is found in only four late manuscripts, should be included in the text of the Bible, even though thousands of earlier manuscripts do not include it. How do you reach that decision? On what basis should anyone reach this conclusion? 1. It is truth 2. And since it is how do you know there wouldn't have been agreement from the earlier writers? From the text, held in context, can you envision a difficulty? Sounds inspired to me. |
