To make this succinct... I indeed just blasted Trinity "Doctrines of Men"... you don't realize that Trinity doctrine is a tool to teach.
You need to realize that I realize.
The triune revelation of God and the "Let Us make man in our image" of the matter... is the true PROTO EVANGELUM. In other words... you say you are "hidden in Christ", but you usurp Jesus's authority over you by going right back to salvation being anything other than trust.
Trust is obeying everything that Jesus teaches.
Trust is NOT, "You do not have to do anything that Jesus says except believe".
Jesus' words are life, not just the words telling us we must believe.
Jesus telling us we must believe...those words do NOT nullify all his words telling us what to do and words that tell us to OBEY.
Get a grip on your nonsense.
NONE OF JESUS' words are worthless. Jesus tells us HOW TO GET SAVED, and HOW TO STAY SAVED.
John is a continuitive work of one author.
It is certain that when YeHoshua says "John 8:11- She said, "No one, sir." Yeshua said, "Neither do I condemn you. Now go, and don't sin any more." That he... John is assuming the reader was reading in the Spirit of Jesus Christ (Romans 8:11). and fully understood that the reader had, or at least would, read this; (John 16:8 "When he comes, he will show that the world is wrong about sin, about righteousness and about judgment -- 9 about sin, in that people don't put their trust in me; 10 about righteousness, in that I am going to the Father and you will no longer see me; 11 about judgment, in that the ruler of this world has been judged. 12 "I still have many things to tell you, but you can't bear them now. 13 However, when the Spirit of Truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth...)
The works the people used to have to do to be JUSTIFIED before God are the CEREMONIAL WORKS.
The ceremonial works do NOT have ANYTHING to do with sinning, per se.
If a person got circumcised and followed the other CEREMONIAL works OR NOT---it did NOT make them a sinner against another human being, the only thing NOT doing those works made them DISOBEDIENT to God.
Those works are the works NO ONE has to do anymore to be JUSTIFIED before God.
WE STILL have to OBEY GOD AS ALWAYS.
We still have to do God's works, we just do not have to justify ourselves anymore with special washings and the blood of animals. BUT WE STILL have to OBEY by abstaining from evil and doing right.
Can you see that to put our TRUST in Jesus is the way we "no longer sin"?
Can you see that telling people we do not have to obey IS SIN?
You do not have a special saving that says doing nothing...or NOT obeying is somehow a saving grace.
No human being is without SIN any day they live.
That is a lie. That teaching is from those who preach we do not have to obey. If you obeyed Jesus then you would know and understand how believers are different from those who are not. Not only different from those who are not, but different from those who call themselves believers but do NOTHING as far as obeying!
It is only that they are DEAD in the eyes of God, yet counted ALIVE IN Jesus that they are seen as without SIN.
What is wrong with you? Do you think God is a magician who pretends He does not see the sin you keep doing?!
If you are sinning, then that sin is coming from your heart, just as Jesus says.
When a person is saved, Jesus lives in your heart and sees your sin.
How do you ever get ever that we do not have to obey because we believe? The one who caused you this confusion will one day pay for it...but now you are the one causing confusion for others, if they fall for your lie, and you one day will pay for it.
I have [MENTION=7209]Ask Mr. Religion[/MENTION] on record saying that Jesus is only the name of one portion of the Godhead. He represents a large portion of Christendom.
In RED... I have shown you that the Spirit of Jesus is the Holy Spirit, thus the name of Jesus is the name of the Holy Spirit, as well. Jesus says the "Spirit of Truth"... and again in the same book Jesus is on record as saying... (John 14:6). Any student of Trinity Doctrine will immediately cry all sorts of slurs and slanders my way for saying this. Why? Because the Father sends the Holy Spirit and thus, Jesus is now the name of the Father, as well! But... there is enormous scriptural backing for this! (John 10:30; John 14:9; Dt. 6:4; Is. 43:11; Isaiah 45:5; Rev. 4:2)
I simply can't please anyone but God when I relentlessly quote scripture and refuse to compromise on it one bit. Whether it's you, AMR or anyone!
But that's ok... (Gal. 1:10)
Any partial favor of scripture that links to Man Made doctrine that masks TRUTH that is revealed in the RED Letters, is simply a lie.
Be careful how you judge, for it could very well be the exact thing you are guilty of.
