Perhaps, but context is often a guide toward the accurate understanding of what is being said and revealed by the Spirit.

1 Cor 7: 14: For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

This sin has another aspect to it, in my opinion... It will be a forbidden fruit, if you will: When we're in New Jerusalem that has come down from heaven upon the New Earth and there is no more faith, for why would we believe for what we already posses? It will be that one thing that as long as...

Jesus told us of this sin right after being accused of doing miracles by the power of the evil one; as seen in Mt 12: 24-32: "But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto...

lol! Me too, as I'm days away from 70, but in New Jerusalem, we'll all of us have a lot of time on our hands...

I consider the Textus Receptus as truly inspired, with the Alexandrian Text and the Codex Sinaiticus as a close second. Translators are not inspired and are subject to mistakes, sadly. As I am not a Greek scholar, I have to depend on a translator, Since God's word is eternal, I suspect that...

Though I prefer the KJV, I have found that some translations are closer to the original Greek than others... Have you ever tried to read the 1611 KJV? Yiikes!

2 Chron 7:14: If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. The above verse occurs if only the faithful turn...

The Holy Spirit has never died!!!

2 Cor 7: 10: For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. But we come to the Lord as we are, set free from our enslavement to sin, but being free from our sins doesn't lead to instant perfection. Heb 5: 12-14: For when for...

The one baptism spoken of by the Lord in Ephesians is an interesting statement, when considering the principals of the doctrines of Christ listed in Heb 6: 1-3: "Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of...

As I considered that verse, I came to this conclusion: Tit 3: 5: Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Spirit; And Eph 5: 26: That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of...

Deut 30: 19: I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Our kids grow up watching us, their parents and when they see us choosing life or blessing, they are...

Heb 10: 1-4: For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers...

True sadly. We all like sheep have gone astray to our own way. There is none righteous, no not one. At least not until Jesus and the Holy Spirit turns our hearts back to the Lord with forgiveness and by faith.

That's hard for me to hear from you, whom I look up to and who has always been a beacon of light for God's grace and love here at Christian chat. I suspect I missed some of what has been going on and for that I'm truly sorry! The Lord continue to hold you close to his heart, living and walking...

Perhaps they did not, but they did exercise their free will when they refused to heed Joshua and Caleb and listened to the other ten spies sent into the promised land. When they had a golden calf made and worshiped it. When they refused to look at the serpent that Moses put upon his staff, or...

You have my agreement, but the Lord is able to make himself heard by then who are receptive: In Gen 3:15: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. We see that Adam and Eve received a promise...

No, they do not, but... Rom 2: 10-16: But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: For there is no respect of persons with God. For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law...
