2681 | One born of God cannot sin? | 1 John 3:9 | CDBJ | 144908 | ||
Hello MJH, I think you got the wrong impression some how, you posted the following. “I was having a somewhat difficult time getting folks on this forum to understand what I was saying. Most had never heard of the two natures (old man, new man) and thus could not quite grasp what this was all about,” The topic of the two natures has been discussed on this forum so much that most don’t want to rehash it again. Type in, (old sin nature) or (new nature), in the search box and click search: you can spend hours reading what the folks on this form understand about the two natures. This is “supposed to be” the format before even asking a question but it’s not adhered to all that much, as you will find out. CDBJ |

2683 | CDBJ, Why can't you prove it by Bible? | 1 John 3:9 | CDBJ | 144942 | ||
Hello, I don’t remember saying that it can’t be proven. I just don’t want to go through all of the ramifications that it would take to do it, when Pastor Thieme’s book does a fine job of proving it, and with more scripture then I can remember anyway. His Books are all free all you have to do is exert the effort to get one! I don’t want to take the time to rewrite his book on the forum just to satisfy someone’s curiosity, when all they have to do is get the same book that I got for FREE, that’s why I suggested the web site. I could give you all the information that you would need to take off and land an airplane in writing on this forum but unless you were really interested, that is, enough to take flying lessons and do it on your own, it would be a waste of my time and yours! I have never written a book on the fundamentals for a new student pilot and you would be better off with hands on instruction!!!!!! I guess I will have to put it to music, Take it or leave it!! End of discussion, CDBJ |

Hi EdB, I think you made the right choice to leave it. I tell people, that don’t know anything about guns, to leave them alone as well, that way they are not as apt to make a mistake and get hurt. CDBJ |

Greetings Emmaus, Your insight, biblically speaking, from your point of view suggests the following in opposition to what I have commented on. You stated, “The concept of the independent infant, thereby making it a real human being, is absurd.” I intern think that your idea of baptismal regeneration, is absurd, truth be known but that’s your decision. I believe that regeneration come about as a result of grace through faith and that not of our selves it’s a gift from God, and one isn’t regenerated until faith in Jesus is expressed. Which one of us stands to suffer the greatest consequence if he is wrong; you with the work of baptism in opposition to faith, or me for being wrong on how I got my old sin nature? Have a great day, CDBJ |

Emmaus, I want to apologize for being out of line with my last post to you! There was no excuse for my say what I did or the way I said it, I was out of line. Speaking of old sin natures, it looks like mine is still alive and working. Again I apologize, CDBJ |

Hi Searcher, Thanks for your concern as to the person I choose as a pastor teacher. I assume that’s what you meant, “Choose who you follow.” Ephes. 4:11-12 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: I thought at the time that sitting under the teachings of someone that has been teaching the original languages since 1950 might know a little something more then I did, so I listened. I don’t believe everything I hear or read but when I hear something I store it away for future use and I have found out that the older I get the more it pays off. Psalm 119:160 The sum of thy word is truth; And every one of thy righteous ordinances endureth for ever. Have a nice day, CDBJ |

2688 | Jesus said He would sent the Holy Spirit | 1 John 3:24 | CDBJ | 172248 | ||
Greetings, and welcome to the forum. Your posting is very lengthy with information but for starters could you please back up your comments with biblical chapter and verse? I realize this is asking a lot but if you would please just cover the first part it might help. You stated, “You recieve the Holy Spirit, when you accept Jesus Christ into your heart as your personal Lord and Savior by Confession of your Sin,” Where in Scripture does is say that we accept Jesus Christ into our heart as our Lord and Savior by confession of our sin? I thought that we were only supposed to believe on Jesus for eternal life where does it say as an unbeliever, that to receive Christ, one must confess sin? John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. Is sin the issue or believing in Jesus the issue in salvation? Ephes. 1:13 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, CDBJ |

2689 | Should Benny throw the Holy Spirit? | 1 John 4:1 | CDBJ | 35078 | ||
How has Mr. Hinn improved your relationship with Christ, and would you not have the relationship that you now have with Christ apart from Benny Hinn? Do you think that you are letting your emotions dictate to your soul through Mr. Hinn rather then the knowledge of Bible doctrine? You don't have to answer me on these question but they are question that you should be asking yourself. CDBJ | ||||||
2690 | What does baptism consist? | 1 John 5:6 | CDBJ | 113616 | ||
It is absolutely IMPOSSABLE to believe in Jesus with out repentance; repentance and faith are two sides of the same coin. | ||||||
2691 | Is your salvation genuine? | 1 John 5:13 | CDBJ | 27502 | ||
If you want to know for sure if you are saved, let God convince you. Study in his word every day especially in the New Testament. 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. There will be times when you will doubt your salvation and this is normal unless you know a lot of Scripture. When one stops and thinks about it, unsaved people don't wake up in the morning thinking about the Lord. At some point in a believers morning, thoughts of the Lord cross their minds; this didn't happen before they were born again! That is what is meant by having the witness, coupled with having, as it were, the down payment or earnest of the Spirit. 1 John 5:10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 2 Cor. 1:22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. It is interesting to note the word sealed. It meant that you were safe because the King had wax put across the opening of say a door and then pressed his signet ring into the wax. If anyone messed with the Kings mark it was sure death. And that is how sure our salvation is once we trust in God's Son Jesus Christ. The word earnest means the down payment, which is God's Holy Spirit Himself and your body is where He dwells. 1 Cor. 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? |

2692 | Can fallen spirit filled saints repent? | 1 John 5:13 | CDBJ | 41271 | ||
You ask,can a spirit filled believer repent. My understanding is that if they are Spirit filled, capital S, they have already used I John 1:9 and don't need to repent. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. When this is done God is back in control of our lives. i.e. we are filled. We can lose this filling by grieving, or quenching the Spirit; the direct result of sin or the old sin nature controlling our lives instead of God. Ephes. 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. 1 Thes. 5:19 Quench not the Spirit. God promises us that he will never leave us or forsake us. Hebrews 13:5 B I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. God is always in the believer but not always in control. Thus when God is put back in control, by the believer confessing all known sin, the believer is automatically filled by the spirit. A believer can do nothing that is pleasing to God when that believer is operating under the power of the flesh or the old sin nature, that is why Jesus said that we must abide in him. Every thing that a believer does that will count for anything must be done in the power of the Spirit. The filling of the Spirit is an absolute, you are either 100 percent filled with the Spirit or your old sin nature is in control, it is one or the other; not a little bit of both. Either God is controlling the believer's life or their old sin nature is. John 15:1-5 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. It doesn't pay to be out of fellowship too long. A believer should keep short account by the use of I John 1:9 |

Hello mathematician, You will be shocked when you do the math on the question that you just answered; it's only a few days from being two years old! Check the date and time on the right side of the postings. I’ll venture to say that the poster is really glad it wasn’t a phone call. Just out of inquisitiveness, why don’t you do God the honor of spelling out just exactly who he is? Or is this one of your own styles of preserving an assumed form of a trigrammaton; GOD? 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Have fun, CDBJ |

2694 | the sin that does not lead to death is ? | 1 John 5:16 | CDBJ | 136909 | ||
Greetings yondering and welcome to the forum. What translation are you using that says eternal death? 1 John 5:16 (KJV) If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it. There are seven different types of death mentioned in the Bible and only one of them is eternal!! Example Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. The previous verse is divided into two parts, which are antithetical; one assures eternal death the other eternal life! Into which category, would you say a brother would fit, there is no middle ground, so it is referring to physical death not eternal death; the Lord just might take him home to orientate him, if he doesn’t want to listen to reason and sound advise from a brother! Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hi yondering, The word for eternal, as used in the English language translations, comes down to us from the Koine Greek word AIONIOS. The word AIONIOS is not found in the original language of the Koine Greek verse of the book of I John 5:16. Gave a great day, CDBJ |

2697 | Where did evil come from? | 1 John 5:19 | CDBJ | 110779 | ||
Hello wordsmith1970, Here is something in addition to what Makarios presented that sheds some light on the originator of lies, which is a sin. John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Rev. 2:2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: I think that sin is within the overall realm of evil, as it were and satan is the father.

2698 | Rebuking satan out loud of in my mind. | Jude 1:9 | CDBJ | 193405 | ||
Hello AMALBP, You must be pretty high up on the spiritual ladder seeing that Satan himself needs to attend to you personally. I have enough problems just trying to keep my old sin nature in check! I am assuming that you can back up all of these sanctimonious claims with chapter a verse; I would hate to think that these pronouncements are all your ideas. 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: You closed your post with "good luck"; where exactly does luck fit into God's plan considering the following? Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Please inform, CDBJ |

Hello AMALBP, After rereading my own post, you are right that did sound sarcastic and I apologize. Now if you will, please let me back up and try again. You made the following statement in the first sentence of your post, i.e #193399 “Satan can read your thoughts.” Could you please confirm this confusing statement with chapter and verse? I have never been aware that Satan had this ability. CDBJ |
