I am not the Spirit of Truth, why do you ask?

I would like you to interpret John 15:1-3. Thank you.

Your new person in Christ will have that kind of nature. We must be willing to be ridiculed, beatne and tortured to death and still be loving and forgiving. If you are truely born-again, you will radiate those kind of qualities. Thats why I keep saying that being engaged in good works for the...

Some scriptures indicate that a gift is irrevocable, but some do not. For instance John 15:2 indicates that if you are saved IN JESUS, but do not produce fruit for his kingdom, you will lose your salvation. Many other scriptures indicate that the gift is not irrecvocable.

OK, good suggestion. Try living the life that Jesus lived. Being engaged in the good works of the Lord should not be difficult if you believe in Jesus and have been baptised by the Holy Spirit, and you are a new person in Jesus.

No, they would be followers of Moses's law. We are Christians that know we cannot earn salvation by good works.

If your church had no social interaction with each other, you would go to church and sit at your pew, and not talk to anyone and then get up and go home. If OTOH, you find yourself talking to people at church, then you are socially interacting and your church is a social church. It can be a...

Are you asking that if a person lives like Jesus lived, would that turn him into a Christian? The answer is not quite. You first must believe in Jesus and be baptized of the Holy Spirit, then we follow our example Jesus and try to live as much like him as we can. To me that whole process is...

Well, I am glad that living like Jesus is not nonsense to you.

I did. I guess you are in decon's camp that 90% of Christians are wrong and worship the wrong Jesus. Good going, I am glad for you that you are right and that you worship the right Jesus. I'm sure that is comforting to your own mind.

So you do not believe Jesus as recorded in John 15:2? Better read it again, (in context).

So you are saying also that my telling people to live like Jesus and do the works that Jesus did is a false gospel and is nonsense? Do you understand what being a Christian is?

Living a life like Jesus is nonsense to you? I think you don't know what a Christian really is?

If that would make you feel good, then do it.

Do you believe that I have no faith in Christ? Do you believe that I believe that the only way to heaven is my good works? You confuse good works and the fruit that good works produces. Good works is not fruit. The fruit is a byproduct of good works. For instance, if you preach Christ and...

I am not a liar. I am aware that God hates a liar, therefore I do not knowingly lie. Prove to me that I am a liar, and if you can, then I will repent and recieve forgiveness from Jesus. So show me where I lied, so I can go through that process. If you cannot show me where I lied, then maybe...

You are the sugar coated version of salvation. You say all you have to do is believe and the Holy Spirit comes and does all that needs to be done. Jesus automatically inputs his righteousness on you and you automatically become as righteous as he is. You want to talk about sugar coating. My...

Just like you yell about me not understanding your religion (OSAS), you don't understand mine either. I do not believe that works of righteousness will save you. It is Jesus that saves you, not your works of righteousness.

Amen, I too am glad we are on the same side as these God-fearing brother soldiers. Thank you for your service.
