.......... and one of the most insulting things I have read on here.

Sorry you "feel" that way!
Some thing are TRUE!
Whether or not one believes them!

You "feel the need" to answer for someone else.

Yet, don't "feel the need" in answering a question I posed to you?

interesting :unsure:

So you consider yourself knowledgeable enough concerning the "Gospel", to be reigning with Jesus Christ for a thousand years upon His return?

No doubt I am a work in progress, and it’s all Jesus’ work, I’m simply the beneficiary. I know you hate that, but it’s okay Pookie, you’ll learn to live with it.

That's good for you "pooky!"
Enjoy "your flight", while you still can!

....for the record? I don't hate Jesus' work in you at all!
I do however, hate the "willingness" you continue to display in your false belief that God's grace shall abound the more...as you keep "pushing the envelope" against it! :cry:

Is the cross the full payment for all sin?

Answer the question a friend wants to know.

No, but I would have had to have known (knowledge) at some point in my upbringing the following facts:
1) Buildings are high
2) Ropes can support weight
3) Fire kills.

This is knowledge.

Wisdom is using the rope ;)

speaking of knowledge , how is your study of the word " sin " going?

ready to have a real discussion about it's meaning.

Jesus declares the change that must occur for us to enter heaven. The door and path are only understood once walked.

Matt 7:24-27
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.
The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."

Yes that change would be regeneration ... born again from above.

Just wondering what exactly do you plan to contribute to you salvation?

Your asinine comment shouldn’t even be dignified with a response, but you’re in luck; I love feral dogs.

I have faith in Jesus and His grace is upon me because of it. The difference between you and me is that I pray for you, while you have disdain for me and hope salvation eludes me.

Earlier this morning I mentioned Luke 18. You should study that chapter with diligence and a prayerful, contrite heart. God is not pleased with you Pharisees.

Only everything!
For what "profit" is being born again, or born from above, without the "knowledge" of WHAT to DO with it! Or, "WISDOM" of HOW to USE it? :unsure:

Isn't this about the same point we came to much earlier, when you "started getting confused", and stated "Well?" "I'll just leave it at that!" :unsure:

Meaning you "tapped out!" And, I left you alone.

So you "lied" to me! Didn't you? Or perhaps, you think you can keep on attacking me, and my beliefs, while you "carry on" with your mocking?

Or perhaps you think my attention span is as short as yours is?

interesting

Or perhaps you're of that "dreaded" double-minded/double standard mindset. Where what you say only APPLIES to whom you said it to? Kind of puts you in a position you haven't the authority, nor the knowledge, of placing yourself in. Doesn't it?

Right before they go SPLAT, on God's windshield!

Guess I don't have to tell you the LAST THING that goes through a bugs mind as he SPLATS against the windshield do I? :p

You better check your heart at the doorstep of perdition, son. You relish the thought of condemnation for people who believe in Jesus with all their heart. Take heed of your darkness.

Are you done venting... do you feel better now?

Just know this ... I was saved, am saved and will be saved completely and securely... by grace through faith apart from any and all works.... Jesus finishes what He starts.
