Judge Not

Why did you ban kiwidan for spamming when he has never spammed in his life?. Correct your judgement.
 
Hey dear kiwispam; I don't know who you are :lol, but you replied to a spam which was deleted by our spam clean up, and it banned you too. I don't have the tools to correct it, but I will leave a message to our administrators to bring you back to life. They're not on board at the moment, so it might be in the morning USA time.
Sorry brother.

Judge not and you will not be judged BUT when you do judge, judge rightly first judging yourself....always start with the man in the mirror

Right, the Beatitudes of Matthew chapter 5, and chapter 7 in light of Matthew 5:20 for context is quite revealing:
"For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."

God bless,
William

G'day Brother Eugene!

Unless your righteousness exceeds - I think the Pharisees were focused on the external emphasis and obedience towards the Law without a proper inward attitude. In the following verses God restores the true nature of the Law, demanding total and radical holiness, but with the intent of the law which includes an awareness of the need for grace and dependence on God. It is worthwhile to keep in mind that Jesus does not alter, replace, of nullify the former commands in Matthew 5:20, but rather established their true intent.

To answer your question, more precisely, it is the alien righteousness of Christ we need to enter the kingdom of heaven. It is Christ that saves through faith. The saving power resides exclusively, not in the act of faith or the attitude of faith or nature of faith, but in the object of faith. Further, Regeneration is an axiom throughout the Scriptures, both OT and NT, Ezekiel 36:25-27 states the heart of flesh makes possible receptiveness and obedience to the Word of God.

25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. 26 And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.

Your thoughts brother Eugene?

God bless,
William

Thanks for an excellent answer William.

Eze 36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

Rom 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

Joh 13:10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

Our feet represent our walk, and that is made holy through the word.

Eph 5:26 That He might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

My thoughts.
 
Thanks Eugene as we all need to learn those verses. Not just read them. But practice what we preach. Like Jesus does.
