    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    And? Everyone sins willfully. Everyone. But, why focus on the flesh? Wouldn't it be more advantageous to think upon the marvel of Gods mercy and grace and our sainthood?

    Did early Christians ever understand grace?

    Welllll....we have been saved because it was Gods plan to reconcile men to himself. The good works are Gods to accomplish through us. The old covenant focused on works and obedience through those works. The new focuses on faith and believing on Gods Son. To work out our salvation is not...

    Why did God allow incest in the Bible

    Not sure why this approach is relevant to our discussion. But, sin is still sin. It's just that God established a new and better way of dealing with it...he crucified sin. We should never be sin conscious.

    LAW

    You are not reading this in relative context. We might become doesn't mean that we are not. To become means that you are not completed by the work of Christ. That is an affront to the gospel of Christ and is another gospel that is untrue. We are immediately born again the moment we believe. Did...

    LAW

    Not really. Christ upheld the law and fulfilled it. Your faith doesn't do that. Your faith is in the one who upheld the law. Therefore, we no longer are required to. When we live by faith, we are not conscious of sin. At least, that's what living by faith actually means. We are Christ conscious...

    LAW

    Excellent.

    LAW

    If you attempt to gain this righteousness by your efforts? Absolutely. Do you think you are good enough to accomplish what no man can? Was Christ's death for nothing? Should you or I have hung on that cross instead? Is the work of God not finished? Does Jesus need your help to be a "good"...

    LAW

    Romans 3:21, 22: 21But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction between Jew and Gentile.

    Why did God allow incest in the Bible

    You might as well state, why did God allow Satan to exist? First, grace. Because of God's unbelievable, immeasurable grace, evil is allowed to exist. Can I explain that further? I don't think I can. God always worked within man's shortcomings. Look at Abraham. He gave up his wife to save his...

    Thank you brother. And the Lord continue to bless you.

    LAW

    Romans 7:17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. Col 3:3: For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. Romans 6:11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus

    LAW

    Christ is the literal fulfillment of the law. Absolutely. It is Finished. Men who are saved, if they revert to any law, are considered falling away from grace. Galatians. And who has bewitched you? May anyone who preaches another gospe Thank you and greetings in Christ. The point is, we who are...

    Thou Shall not Kill Or Murder

    Be blessed in the continuance of the true faith brother.

    LAW

    Good luck with that. Because if you break just one tiny law, you've broken them all. You should understand that from God's point of view, you no longer sin. Period. None of us do. Our flesh will sin. That's a fact. Deal with it. But we, from God's POV, can never sin. Be Free in That.

    Thou Shall not Kill Or Murder

    Nobody knows what they would do in any given situation. I can't turn the other cheek. But Christ in me can and has and does all the time. yet, as a Christian, I've popped a few guys. It's all nonsense. This talk of sin is detrimental to faith. Keep your eyes on the Lord. And if you can't, then...

    2 evidences that water baptism doesn't save anyone

    Baptism is the outward expression of the crucifying of the sinful nature.

    Did early Christians ever understand grace?

    For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes on him, shall not die, but have everlasting life. In this world you will have many troubles, but take heart, for I have overcome the world. ---Jesus Christ. The world hates you because it hated me first. ---Jesus...

    Did early Christians ever understand grace?

    Mostly I agree with you. I say mostly because God's works are already prepared for us to do in advance. So we have nothing to do with that. But yes, resting in Christ is everything. God works. We rest. Amen brother.

    Is Sinning on Purpose Willful Sin ?

    All sin is willful. And if you are a Christian, all sin is forgiven. We do not earn our way to heaven. God sent Christ, once for all. Everyone sins, because the flesh is weak and against God. From God's point of view, we who are in Christ, have died. We no longer live but Christ lives in us. So...

    Rebuke first, ask questions later

    Well, I don't know who Bob Larson is, but I know what spiritual warfare is. I've had many battles with demonic spirits. God always directs these battles. He, through the Holy Spirit, directs me and I know when I know. Protocols? Not sure if I've been aware of any protocols. One time, I spoke in...
