Ecclesiastes12:7 and the dust returneth to the earth as it was, and the spirit returneth unto God who gave it. Genesis 2:7 Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living soul. See also Genesis 1:26-28...

And yet fear and fearful do not translate as what we understand today being a reference to having awe and reverence for God. I would also submit that doing good deeds as God sets them before the Christian is not a string attached to our salvation but is, again, linked with our salvation. This...

And? Never heard of greasy grace but there is such a thing as easy believerism. Yes, it is a derogatory term and yet those who think all they need do is believe in Jesus and they're saved, and can continue in their living any old way they wish, like that rapper I mentioned, are an example of...

I always root for the bull. :LOL: At rodeos too.

What do you think is the difference? James was the brother of Jesus. Do you think he didn't know what Jesus taught and meant in his teachings? Easy believerism isn't scripture. Hold faith, do nothing else. No good deeds, nothing. There's a celebrity sperm donor who made news on the front page...

LGBTQ demand equality and tolerance, when we only need tolerate something because it is otherwise intolerable, and yet they afford none in return. Christians holding to our faith and the teachings of God as pertains to all sexual immorality for example. We should lose our businesses, job...

No, it is because a stand alone verse doesn't account for the full context of God's message in that passage which appears as a chapter. That's why the Bible isn't a bunch of individual verses page after page. It is books, with chapters, as letters, to the world. The verse numbers are to allow...

I admit I'm surprised. Your remarks don't seem to indicate that. I think the only trick at this point is when it is said, insisted in many respects, that works, good deeds, have absolutely nothing to do with our salvation. That's not true. God knows that's not true. We're not saved by...

At least your mirror stayed home! Mine was last seen hightailing it through Dubuque . :oops: Who knew the thing had a sense of direction? Had the lamp write a goodbye note. "Seens all I can see! Can't sees no more!" Wimp!:cautious:

Is that in the article itself? ' let's add all this junk on to Faith and call faith / trust/ believe something and guilt trip everyone into the Antinominism dilemma . Are you one who subscribes to Antinominism? If so that will assist my understanding of your posts.

At this point I respectfully offer the observation that neither of you have bothered to actually read the whole article.

That's a question, not proof of your prior assertion about the article.

You're using your own words there. Don't be silly, OK. Didn't you know? Theology for a Christian is personal. And I am reading the scripture. You're arguing for your personal position as to what scripture says and presumably from a personal relationship with Christ standpoint. Which makes my...

Biden received draft deferments during Vietnam War, too ...

Are you one of the many? Or one of the all?

@soggykitten ....many brethren does not mean all....was my point in this verse...not sure why you posted that scripture.....I was referring to this. Maybe if you read the verse I posted you'll understand the context as it applies to what you posted above. He is the atoning sacrifice for our...

I think it would be hard to comprehend the meaning of a single verse out of context, don't you? While in context we may better understand. Or at least have a starting point to do so. God willing. Matthew 5 The Sermon on the Mount The Beatitudes 1 And when He saw the multitude, He went up...

This is. 1 John 2:2 He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
