What serious sins are you having an issue with?

Let me start by filling you in on what has helped me personally. What does help me personally, is first denying myself of a thing that I found pleasure abd enjoyment in that took my focuse off of god. Second thing I do is I started developing a prayer rule. Then I started joining a community in...

Are there sins that you're unable to turn from? Are there sins that have ahold on your life? I'm assuming that this is really the root of why you believe what you believe. Let me reassure you that if you trust and believe and follow Jesus Christ. And you lean on him and cast your sins upon him...

And I think you need actually clarify what you think repentance means. Does that mean that if you were standing right in front of you I can punch you in the face and say sorry and then punch you again and not sin. Well I guess that means I can punch you in the face as many times as I want and be...

And I just understood now what it is you're saying. You're saying that christ forgives our sins whether we repent or not because we are all undeserving. I didn't realize that I was dealing with this kind of error. This is something you're gonna have to work out with fear and trembling...

If Christ’s offering has sanctified us “once for all” and “for all time,” so it’s argued, then we don’t need to worry about mortal sins causing us to lose our salvation, since when God justifies us he forgives all our sins—past, present, and future. Christ’s one sacrifice is sufficient to take...

Well I would say that we're obviously at a disagreement.Now you could read it again.Maybe you misunderstood something or you're choosing the stick to your guns, you're obviously passionate about what you believe. But let me just clarify that 1 of us is wrong and one of us is right. How you feel...

“Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after.... I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:12-15)....

The author of Hebrews says that we “have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.” The author then says similarly in verse fourteen, “For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified.” If Christ’s offering has sanctified us...

And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, then to wait until his enemies should be made a stool for his feet...

As I have said before, when it comes to the chosen elect these are the saints that they had chosen amongst the community in acts. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch. The congregation...

Although my only disagreement so far from what I can tell on the other side of the argument is that we are regenerate from the time we receive baptism and I believe this is also supported by the early church fothers.

I'm trying to catch up with what the discussion is here. But I think I'm pretty familiar with your views, they seem to be reform views and I can understand that you want the reassurance and guarantee of your salvation. And that's really the appeal behind the reform view. As if there's any...

My goodness, did you just word vomit, bright flame? And I know that's not your name, but that's the name I'm giving you. It seems to me that you're just looking for an easy way to get right with god. If I'm not mistaken, it's very clear that the way is narrow. If the way is narrow. It's not...

Now these are all Bible quotes tying into the atonement of Christ and I want you to see how they tie into what I have shared. Also denying ourselves, taking up our cross, and following after Christ is essentially the foundation of how we are to respond to gods grace working in our lives. 1...

Matthew 16:24-25 NKJV Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

This is what ties into mortification of the flesh. The term mortification of the flesh comes from the Book of Romans 8:13 in the New Testament: "For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body you will live."[11] The same idea is...

And lastly, I would like to include. They're speaking about the chosen elect. Those are the ones that were chosen amongst the community. To be one with Christ Divinity. We all have the opportunity to become one with Christ divinity. I don't believe that it's a requirement for you to be saved...

I would give this 5 thumbs up if I could you're spot on and yes, part of what I was referring to is in James. I apologize for not leaving the references. I apologize for the bad grammar and punctuation. And miss types, I'm at work at the moment. There's actually quite a few places in the Bible...

Well, thanks for that. I just noticed that all the nasty responses I got were from bright flame. That guy he's worse than the pharisees. He doesn't deserve to call himself Christian, we would have more devout Christians in this world today if he renounced his Christianity, there is nothing...
