    I believe Jesus compares eternal life to a vine for this reason: we must be connected to Him to have it. However John 15:6 If anyone does not remain in Me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers. "But how is it eternal life if it ends?" Consider this 1 Samuel 2:30 Therefore, the...

    Yes, in verse 25. In verses 17-22, is Paul talking about the entire gentile world potentially being cutoff like Israel or those who were grafted in and stand by faith?

    What does Paul mean here (in bold)? Romans 11:21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, He will certainly not spare you either.

    John 15:-5-6 I am the vine and you are the branches. The one who remains in Me, and I in him, will bear much fruit. For apart from Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not remain in Me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers. Such branches are gathered up, thrown into the fire...

    If one cannot carry out righteousness, that verse tells us why. Paul gives a significant part of the answer to this in Romans 6 Romans 6:1-11 What then shall we say? Shall we continue in sin so that grace may increase? Certainly not! How can we who died to sin live in it any longer? Or aren’t...

    , Paul is speaking as a man who is a slave to sin because of the Law and cannot do right. Romans 7:14 We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. Romans 7:18 I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh; for I have the desire to do what is...

    To me it seems like we don't even have the choice to continue doing good for the rest of our lives unless we get freed from sins, but afterward it can become less difficult if we renew the mind. I'm open to learn more on that subject.

    Thanks, love back at you :) I'm confident this is true and at least a part of what Jesus was referring to in John 8. John 8:34 Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. But regardless of whether Jesus was referring to something carnal or demonic, we have a...

    I would add Galatians 5:22-25 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live...

    Did Paul think they believed? Galatians 3:26 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. Galatians 4:6 And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, you are also...
