    Bible Study 1 John 3:1-12

    1) Adam lost the likeness of the LORD, not His Image, which is the image of a man. 2) I agree 3) I agree 4) we receive forgiveness only after we first confess: it not automatic as you presume. 5) I agree; but the reason Jesus was not born into sin was because no man was His father, but GOD IS...

    Bible Study Sanctified Unto Justification

    It is GOD who justifies and sanctifies; but, I do not agree with you that one is sanctified just because one believes GOD (the Bible) or is "saved". For me, sanctification occurs when GOD decides one is holy, not just set apart. It is the mark of perfection that only GOD decides who bares it...

    Bible Study Importance of the Blood ?

    After Adam and Eve sinned, their nakedness was now exposed; therefore, the LORD GOD sacrificed animals in order to properly cover their nakedness. Thus, the first sacrifice and the pattern for mankind to follow, which meant the blood of the lamb was to be shed for the remission (covering) of...

    Bible Study Abraham's Bosom (Luke 16)

    There is Truth in all you say, but I would add that the Heart must also be a part of the Bosom, for that is where the Spirit of Christ dwells in man these days, in whom we find security and love; but also, since Adam had iniquity in his bosom, the reference is obviously about his heart. (JOB32:33).

    THE FIRST LIE

    If it is the serpent's question you are referring to, he made no proposition of anything, rather, he merely asked a question. He asked her if it was true that they could not eat from all the trees in the Garden, which, while being true since there was one tree they could not eat from, was also...

    THE FIRST LIE

    It is IMPOSSIBLE that Eve made it up (don't touch), because this would violate the fact that the devil told the first lie (JN8:44). Why can you not understand this reasoning? You find fault with my interpretation, even though all I have said is what is already written, and I accept the Word as...

    Does Eve Deserve More Blame Than Adam?

    Paul strongly disagrees with you, according to ROM 5. He puts all the blame on Adam, but never mentions the devil. How can this be, when it was the devil's deception of Eve which led to her sinning first?

    THE FIRST LIE

    If GOD told Eve the Commandment, then, since it is impossible to deceive someone who knows the truth (the basis for the WORD of GOD), Eve could have never been deceived. But, was not Adam given both the Garden and the Commandment, which means he was the first human Pastor and Eve his flock? It...

    Justification: Main Idea?

    Justification is necessary, but it is only the beginning of faith. Is not our sanctification the goal, for it the Will of GOD, or is justification enough?

    THE FIRST LIE

    There is nothing subtle about the false comment, 'you will not surely die', given that it is the exact opposite of the truth. Maybe you don't understand the definition of 'subtle' as it applies to the modus opperandi of the serpent in how he deceived Eve in the first place. Unfortunatley, most...

    THE FIRST LIE

    So it is dangerous to reason doctrine based upon only that which GOD said was true? And exactly where is my presumption, or what is it that i have said that is not supported by scripture? There is every reason to accept that there was only One Truth in the Beginning because it is the only...

    THE FIRST LIE

    In the Beginning there was only one Truth, the Commandment: and scripture supports no other truths.; therefore, the first lie had to be a perversion of that first TRUTH. Now, Eve was deceived, even by the subtlety of the serpent: and to be deceived is to believe a lie to be the truth; therefore...

    THE FIRST LIE

    When the serpent told Eve she would not die, he was truthful as far that death being a physical death, since she did not die when she ate; however, the death promised by the Law (the Commandment) was obviously a spiritual death since Eve did not die an immediate physical death. Therefore, the...

    THE FIRST LIE

    Where is it written that Satan (the devil) lied before the Garden? For if it is not written, then it is an assumption only. So you think Eve was lying? what for? Could it be that it was what she was told was the truth, which, if she believed it, would leave her deceived; If so, then 'Don't...

    Bible Study Man's Spirit and Flesh – The Image of the Godhead

    Ugmug, you are correct in most of what you say, except that since the 'Fall', men are born dead to the Spirit, and are therefore in need of the quickening provide by the Holy Spirit, and, (as i believe) Adam and Eve lost the 'Likeness' of GOD, which is light, once they sinned, thereby exposing...

    THE FIRST LIE

    Given that the 'Fall of Man' began with the deception of Eve, is it not most imperative to understand how sin began in order to understand the rest of the bible: for, if the events of GEN 3 had never happen, then there would be no reason for the Bible to exist today? Then be certain and...

    THE FIRST LIE

    By definition, a liar is one who knows the truth, but deliberately changes it into a lie; therefore, in order to lie, one must know thte truth. By JOHN 8:44 it is a fact that the devil (Satan, serpent, Lucifer, etc) told the first lie; and by II COR 11:3 (also GEN 3:13 ), it is a fact that the...

    THE MYSTERY OF INIQUITY: II THES 2:7

    By definition, iniquity is both sinful thinking and sinful actions; therefore, since Lucifer, who is he who became the devil, serpent, and satan, had iniquitous thoughts in mind when he intentionally deceived Eve and convinced her to sin by eating the 'forbidden' fruit, then it is a fact that...

    The First Lie - Don't Touch!

    By definition, a liar is one who knows the TRUTH, but deliberately changes it; therefore, if you believe Adam told Eve the absolute TRUTH, to not eat the forbidden fruit (and nothing else), then, when she said they were forbidden from touching it as well, she would be making herself out to be a...
