... I simply believe all of the gospel from Gen. to Rev. . . . .the "mystery" of it all . .
Broski, please understand that I am older than 22.
Speaking of understanding, everyone says they believe the Scriptures,
but do they understand them is the question.
And the answer is NO.
“No one can separate us! Except for sin, there is no other circumstance in this life that can separate believers in Christ from God’s love … there is, in fact, one thing – a thing which God did not create – that certainly can separate them from God’s love. And that one thing is sin. If we continue knowingly in some sin and refuse to repent of it, that sin will most definitely separate us from God’s love and bring upon us God’s terrible wrath and judgment. Before we were Christians, we were separated from God because of sin. We were God’s enemies. Then, after repenting of our sins and believing in Christ, we were reconciled to God. But, if we fall back into sin and continue in it knowingly without repenting, we are in danger of again becoming separated from God. And on the day of judgment, that separation will become permanent. Of all the promises in the Bible, the promise of verses 38-39 is one of the greatest. But we must not think about a promise without also thinking about the conditions of that promise. It is good to remember the promises of the Bible, but we must not forget the warnings!”...
Therefore, I suggest that you..................
What sin/sins? My sin(singular) was judged at the cross(Romans 8:3 KJV), 2000+ years ago, by the principle of identification, and all of my sins(plural)were forgiven by the principle of substitution(1 Cor 15:1-4 KJV).
Which only bought you or anyone, redemption. Redemption being that thing only His sinless life as an offering, could purchase and for which you had nothing to do with. What you do with so great His redemption that restored you to a state of innocence is now a matter of your choice. I would suggest that to continue in your sinis to lose your redemption.
made up as usual. There is no "the gospel" from Genesis to Revelation, but several!BTW: I am not of any formal pentecostal sect. I simply believe all of the gospel from Gen. to Rev. . . . .the "mystery" of it all . .
filthy lies as usual!Which only bought you or anyone, redemption.
I would suggest that to continue in your sinis to lose your redemption.
filthy lies as usual!
Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: ( see Rom 8:28-30 )
Ephesians 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Ephesians 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
That's impossible for members of the Body of Christ!
Ephesians 1:11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
Ephesians 1:12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
Ephesians 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,
Ephesians 1:14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Ephesians 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:LOL!!
Ephesians? Written to those who had already chosen wisely and well on their way to becoming faithful in Christ Jesus.. Think again. They were living as a "new Creation" in Christ Jesus and under a new covenant; enjoying the spiritual reconciliation and freedom provided for by God Almighty. Maybe study a little before you declare "filthy lies".
Ephesians 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
Ephesians was written to Gentiles such as we, who in time past were aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, without hope and without God in the world, but now were made nigh unto God by the blood of Christ!
Ephesians 2:1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
Ephesians 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Ephesians 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
Ephesians 2:4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Ephesians 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved
Ephesians 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
Ephesians 2:7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Ephesians 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Ephesians 2:11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
Ephesians 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
Ephesians 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
Ephesians 2:14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
Ephesians 2:15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
Ephesians 2:16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
Ephesians 2:17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
Ephesians 2:18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
Ephesians 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
You tell filthy lies of only being redeemed when in Christ, there is so much more!
Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: ( see Rom 8:28-30 KJV)
Ephesians 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Ephesians 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
Slapping a coat of yellow paint on it doesn't make what you say true as shown by the scripture I cited.Ephesians - - - Written to those who had already chosen wisely and well on their way to becoming faithful in Christ Jesus.. Think again. They were living as a "new Creation" in Christ Jesus and under a new covenant; enjoying the spiritual reconciliation and freedom provided for by God Almighty.
All who have trusted the Lord believing the gospel of Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV) are in Christ and a new creature regardless of our living!They were living as a "new Creation" in Christ Jesus and under a new covenant; enjoying the spiritual reconciliation and freedom provided for by God Almighty.
Which only bought you or anyone, redemption. Redemption being that thing only His sinless life as an offering, could purchase and for which you had nothing to do with. What you do with so great His redemption that restored you to a state of innocence is now a matter of your choice. I would suggest that to continue in your sinis to lose your redemption.
All who have trusted the Lord believing the gospel of Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV) are in Christ and a new creature regardless of our living!
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
You need to get your facts straight!
You missed it! It says if any man be in Christ, he IS a new creature. It's already done! We're not becoming one or having to live to be one as you imply.No. You need get your understanding of scripture post straight in you limited mindset:
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Now you can read it with both eyes.
