Hello Ogam, I have tried to reply to your post, but for some reason this site is not allowing me to do so. I agree with with what you state, that if something is difficult to accept, it is then likely that it may be due to it being incorrect.

We have been discussing Romans 12:1-2 in numerous posts. How can you not see that to offer our bodies as living sacrifices, which is to leave our worldly carnal ways, which then makes us Holy and acceptable before God, not how we receive Jesus and the Holy Spirit? We become Holy and acceptable...

The Lord is in the volume of the whole book Word of truth; and not just cherry picking some scriptures, and taking them out of context, which contradict other scriptures. Hebrews 10:7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

When someone says they believe in a certain politician, it is understood that they are saying they believe in what that certain politician is preaching. Likewise, when someone claims they believe in Jesus, what they should be saying is they believe in what Jesus is preaching, and not just that...

It is not hard for me to accept the truth, which is to repent of my worldly carnally inclined ways, in order to be Holy and acceptable to God, by which His grace is then at work in me to transform my dead worldly inclined heart to a live spiritually inclined heart. My perspective agrees with all...

To believe in the gospel of salvation is to believe in what the Lord Jesus preached, which is to leave our worldly carnally inclined ways for that of a spiritually inclined way.

There are many scriptures which show what happens to those who choose to not overcome their worldly ways. It is then hard for people to accept eternal salvation while continuing in their worldly ways, knowing these scriptures tell otherwise.

Even when we were dead in sins (when we repent of these sins), the Lord then quickens us with His grace, transforming our dead worldly inclined hearts to living spiritually inclined hearts. This is when we are raised up and sit in spiritual heavenly places.

Worldly inclined individuals cannot be seated in spiritually inclined places in heaven. It is counter intuitive.

When you know that there are many scriptures which testify that your perspective is wrong, then it is hard to accept a shallow perspective which you know is wrong.

You choose which way you want to go. If you choose a worldly carnally inclined way, you will then not end up in a spiritually inclined place.

To offer yourself as a living sacrifice in Romans 12:1 is to repent yourself from your worldly carnal inclinations, so that you may be holy and acceptable to God, in order to become transformed in heart, by Gods grace.

If there is no difference among the students, their families, and the churches they attend, after seeing one of their distinguished heads sexcapades; then I would sincerely question the faith of those individuals, if they had any true faith to commence with. The Lord has commenced shaking the...

And the world's seafood true worth is invaluable as without it billions would die. It's a little like honeybees. Honeybees annual net worth in the USA is roughly 15 billion dollars, but without the honeybees, worldwide there would millions if not billions of people dying.

The United States fishing industry alone generated 200 billion dollars in seafood in 2015. Worldwide, it would probably be over 1 trillion dollars. 10% of the world's population depends on fisheries for their livelihoods, and 4.3 billion people are reliant on fish for 15% of their animal protein...

I do not preach how good we must be, but I do preach that we must repent from our sins, which is in agreement with the Lord. Once we do this, we are then Holy and acceptable to God, at which point the Lord's grace is at work in us changing a worldly carnally inclined heart towards a Heavenly...

Yes, we need to have faith/believe in God/love in order for the Lord's grace to save us. If we believe in love, which is to have faith in God, we will then at some point leave our worldly carnal inclinations for those of the Spirit.

Did you not read post # 109? The Lord's grace is granted to me to bring my heart in accordance with His spirit. I need to repent of my worldly carnal inclinations in order to be holy and acceptable to God before His grace can change my worldly carnally inclined heart to a spiritually inclined heart.

To repent is to turn from sin.

We have come full circle. To repent from one's worldly carnal inclinations is the same as presenting our bodies as living sacrifices, so that we may be Holy, and acceptable by God. You claim this being a work, but it is the Word in Romans 12:1. Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by...
