If “rebuke” means comparing what’s said to Scripture, I welcome it.
That’s exactly what I’ve asked for all along — deal with the text, not the person.
Romans 4, Acts 10, and Ephesians 1 still stand as written, whether someone agrees with me or not.
If you believe the verses mean something different, then show it from the Word.


This TrustandObey account echoes studier’s wording and appears only to reinforce his posts.
Whether it’s the same user or just another echo, it doesn’t change the fact that the arguments themselves collapse when tested by Scripture.
The text, not tag-teaming, determines truth.

Grace and peace.
I am not suggesting you are a bot, so please do not suggest that I am studier.

Faith alone regeneration theology is a theology without an example, in a text that should overflow with examples.
 

Is everyone that on CC that shares GODS word with you the way HE wrote it UPC or a Troll?

Since you will not accept HIS word who do you follow?

I asked you before Satan or JESUS.

Are we born in sin?

How do we get rid of them if we are?

You do know lying is a sin right?

Please no drama or stories, your life depends on it.
 
“Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.””
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭1‬:‭26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The Trinity was in the beginning…..
So you will not accept that every case in HIS word baptism was done in JESUS NAME ONLY?

GOD'S word is deep, that is why HE says we have to study to prove ourselves.

We can't use just on verse, or one chapter, or just on book in it.

We have to use IT ALL.

GOD is spirit right?

The Holy Ghost is spirit right?

The we have JESUS who was man, BUT BORN OF THE SPIRIT right?

So how does 2 spirits and one man make 3 different people?

Isaiah 28:10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

Yep, I know it gets confusing, and I don't have all of the answers.

You say trinity which means 3, OUR could be 2 right?

What do you think of these verses?

JESUS speaking why HE is on this earth AND IN HEAVEN ALSO!

John 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

Of course there are A LOT more.

I follow Jesus Christ alone, not any denomination or group. My faith rests on His finished work and His Word — not on man’s labels or traditions.

We are indeed born into sin (Romans 5:12 KJV), but salvation comes by grace through faith in Christ (Ephesians 2:8–9 KJV), not by belonging to any organization.

I don’t deal in drama — just Scripture. And Scripture says, “Let God be true, but every man a liar” (Romans 3:4 KJV). That’s where I stand.

Grace and peace.

Your faith relies on your own twist on HIS word.

You do know you speak with a forked tongue don't you?

We have HIS word and you added put your own twist on HIS word making you a liar.

Then you post Romans, MAKE UP YOUR MIND ARE YOU FOLLOWING HIS WORD OR YOURS???

You claim you follow HIS word, but you don't.

Why do you bring up domination's, organizations, labels, traditions all of the time?

NO ONE ELSE IS!!!!

How about sticking with HIS WORD ONLY???

WHY ALL OF THE DRAMA and story time.

BE A HERO, A TRUE JESUS DISCIPLE, I AM A SINNER, TELL ME WHAT I HAVE TO DO TO BE REBORN.

I understand your concern, but calling someone a liar or speaking with a “forked tongue” isn’t the spirit Christ calls us to.
Ephesians 4:29 (KJV) says, “Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying.”

My faith isn’t based on personal opinion but on the clear teaching of God’s Word:

  • We are born in sin — “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world…” (Romans 5:12 KJV).
  • And we are saved by grace through faith — “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.” (Ephesians 2:8–9).
It’s not about my word or yours — it’s about His Word rightly divided (2 Timothy 2:15 KJV).
I’m here to discuss Scripture in love and truth, not to argue or accuse.

Grace and peace.

@Blue155 at this point it for the most part doesn't matter what's going on here re: electronics methods. IMO AI use is in play but likely won't be proven. What does matter is that there is virtually no integrity and a high level of dishonesty & hypocrisy being displayed. At the moment @LightBearer316 is challenging you with a trolling ruse to avoid answering you while at the same time has posted the same trolling provocation to me 3x - it contains nothing more than his or her having changed my words and then attack me for what he's said, not for what I've said - it's like attacking himself pretending he's attacking me. It's a very common method of fallacious argumentation that I identified earlier and a very intellectually dishonest one. It fits the revealed pattern of childishness and low character which IMO is pretty extreme. There's more to say but expecting any honesty is a waste of time and attention.

I will say that AI is just another tool, albeit quite a powerful one. From what I've seen it can be used to assist and expand the character of its user. It'll also assist with any theological system one favors and draws from a plethora of data. As I said earlier, a new era.
 
I am not suggesting you are a bot, so please do not suggest that I am studier.

I've never said it's a bot either. Just that it looks like AI is in use and that AI said the same thing about one of his earlier posts I had it analyze.

I very much agree with your last sentence.

If that were the case, then why would I avoid the question at all?
I’ve already answered it several times — I don’t use AI. There’s nothing to hide.

And honestly, if AI were involved, it wouldn’t need to “be afraid” or “avoid” anyone. The fact that you keep bringing it up instead of addressing the actual content shows the weakness of your argument, not mine.

Let’s stay on topic and deal with Scripture, not speculation.

Grace and peace.

There’s really no valid way to “analyze speech” and decide it’s AI or not — that’s just subjective guesswork.

By that same reasoning, I could claim to have analyzed your speech and say it shows you’re untrustworthy and a theif— but that wouldn’t make it true either.

Scripture warns us against judging by appearance or assumption (John 7:24 KJV). Let’s focus on the truth of the Word, not baseless speculation about how people write.

The new mantra now seems to be “AI.”
Before that, it was “Satan,” “Calvinist,” and a few other foul names I’ve been called here — not to mention the wolf in sheep’s clothing pictures, and one of Satan himself with my username on them that moderators had to remove.

It’s sad how quickly labels replace Scripture when people run out of answers. I’ll keep standing on the Word, no matter what new name gets thrown my way.

Real Christian brotherhood on this forum I just see all that love there. This place is more like a Pagan forum than a Christian one.

Grace and peace.

Since you want to talk Scripture, and I'd agree, John7:24 doesn’t forbid analysis nor does it say "assumption". It forbids by command superficial judgment and commands right judgment. Pattern recognition long predates computers: humans used it, then computers refined it, and now AI extends it. It’s foundational to textual criticism, authorship studies, and ordinary discernment - judgment of many things. So equating pattern recognition with baseless accusation is a false comparison, and another fallacy you've put forth.

If this is your desired path forward, then hopefully you've stopped repeatedly trolling me with another fallacy.
 
“Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.””
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭1‬:‭26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The Trinity was in the beginning…..
What always made me think about Genesis 1:26 is the following Verse

27 And God created man in His image; in the image of God He created him

Here it shows God not only being singular but God attaches His Image to the Image of God.

It's much of why I say God is triune in His Nature because when something is finished by God He uses the singular pronoun to acknowledge His work.
 
I understand your concern, but calling someone a liar or speaking with a “forked tongue” isn’t the spirit Christ calls us to.

So your dening you change HIS word to your's???

So all I need to do is read those scriptures to be reborn?

You MAY see in scripture on how to be reborn but since it would prove you are wrong you would rather attact me for calling a liar a liar.

Like I said, you can repent it's not to late for you.

Would you like to ask me how to be reborn, I can give you HIS word to prove it.

John 7:24 calls for righteous judgment — that means judging according to truth, not assumption.
True discernment is grounded in evidence and humility, not speculation about motives or authorship.
I’ve simply asked that we weigh words by Scripture, not by who we think wrote them. That remains my stance.
Grace and peace.

I appreciate your concern, but I’ve already trusted in the finished work of Christ for salvation — not by my own merit, but by grace through faith, exactly as Scripture teaches (Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV).

My goal here isn’t to argue over who’s saved, but to speak “that which is good to the use of edifying” (Ephesians 4:29 KJV).

When discussion turns from Scripture to accusation, it stops being about truth and starts being about pride. Let’s return to God’s Word itself rather than trying to question one another’s salvation.

Grace and peace.
