    Bible Study Do we love the truth!

    I do not know the purpose of segregating sins into more than the two categories that Jesus mentioned (i.e., the one unpordonable sin and all other sins). Cynically, I would guess to lighten the load on priests? Are Catholics instructed to confess every single sin, or just the bad ones?

    The verses that are talking about sin unto death are either talking about the unforgivable sin leading to the second death or they are talking about pardonable sins that lead to physical death.

    If repentance is the currency that buys forgiveness, then the currency is devalued every time a sin is repeated. Eventually, the currency becomes worthless. What then?

    Bible Study Do we love the truth!

    People who have Christ living in them are saved, meaning they will never perish but have everlasting life. Our salvation is not complete here and now only in that we currently live in bodies that are corrupt. After we die physically, we will receive bodies that are incorruptible just as our...

    Meciful people need mercy too. Why? Because of Adam. What we have in Adam is not redeemed. But what we have in Christ is redeemed. This can't be understood apart from knowing that what came from the flesh is flesh and what came from the Spirit is spirit. When we talk about forgiveness, grace...

    Living under law and not under grace is a fine place to live until you sin. Then you need forgiveness. You may want to return again to law after you are forgiven, but it won't be long before you sin again. Hopefully, in due time, you will learn that your failures to obey the law place you under...

    Yes, yes, yes. The last "yes", of course, is because of the lower case "p". No one can be saved without Jesus, the High Priest, because He is the one who saves people from God's wrath.

    31 “Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. 32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in...

    It's the first setting under "Preferences". If I remember correctly, I had to change mine from "Dark" to "CF Original" when I returned after a long hiatus.

    This statement is ok on its face, but becomes iffy when "believing" morphs into something else. These words have promise.

    Are you familiar with the Lordship Doctrine? It has a fatal flaw in that it makes the Bible Lord, not Jesus Himself. Its second flaw is more obvious in that every sin a person commits proves any commitment he made to obey Him as Lord wasn't worth the paper it was written on.

    My background is white. I don't see any yellow. I think if you make the words bold and underline or a bigger size, it should work on all settings.

    You do know that making text white hides it, right?

    Never mind. I now remember what you said from the beginning. Your answer is that obeying every commandment in the Bible is what it takes to be saved. And you are right. But if you don't do that (and nobody does), what then?

    Please tell me. I asked before, but you have yet to answer.

    That does not explain the word, "especially". But forget it. It's not that important.

    It boils down to forgiveness. Everyone needs it, and nobody deserves it. That should unite us all under one flag.

    The two phrases are not very commonly used in the Bible (4 instances in total). To me, they are simply synonyms for people who are lost or are acting as though they are lost. I've never seen them as indicating what it takes to be saved, other than to state the process negatively (namely, that...

    I have no earthly idea how what you wrote here has anything to do with what I wrote.
