To God, which is all that matters, anger toward anyone is murder. God looks at the heart.
So being born again is a command, am I correct?
Is being born again not change your body lifestyle?
Is being born again make you try to do the will of God
Is born again not make you have love more or make you murder?
I am agree with all Word and learn to do
The fact angry is murder not change the Word
Not because angry ~ murder than we can change the verse , now murder inherit
We are spiritually born again.
After we are born again, we are to renew our minds and begin our discipleship.
This is the process of "working out your salvation" by learning how to exist on earth, as born again.
Discipleship is a process, while Salvation is a BIRTH.
Praying to Mary? That made me cringe. I was raised in the Catholic religion and there are few things more offensive than their teachings of that poor woman.

Well John said a child of God can sin period
So I guess you just condemned everyone.
and if murder is practice murder. then you also just condemned Mosas, David and Saul and many other men of God
If repent and now accept Christ that sin forgiven too
Murder must repent if not than the verse say not inherit kg

that is not true. not all anger is murder. Jesus was angry at the money changers at the temple. we can be justifiably angry without desiring to kill them. what does actually make me angry at times> seeing people who change what the Bible actually states
another example, is you saying God told you the world is flat and then saying He revealed it to you. nonsense and fabrication
we can most certainly be angry without sinning. when people lie I get angry. that is actually murder. you are murdering the truth.
20But this is not the way you came to know Christ. 21Surely you heard of Him and were taught in Him—in keeping with the truth that is in Jesus— 22to put off your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23to be renewed in the spirit of your minds; 24and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
25Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another. 26“Be angry, yet do not sin.”d Do not let the sun set upon your anger, 27and do not give the devil a foothold. Ephesians 4
Is the verse say practice murder not inherit or murder(without the word practice) not inherit
Anyway I am not condemned anybody that the verse say, I only repeat that verse

Honestly I can’t make sense of what you are saying
I’m talking about what the scripture says like this
“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.”
1 John 1:8-10
this part “his word is not in us.”
that’s the only reason people think they are sinless because they refuse to step into Gods light in the gospel
when Christians think they don’t have repentance to do , it’s. Cause they can’t hear Gods word
they are afraid to do this part
“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”
1 John 1:7 KJV
the light is what makes our sin manifest
“But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.”
Ephesians 5:13-14, 17
the gospel isn’t about who sinned all already have
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
Romans 3:23 KJV
that means everyone is condemned to death
“Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.”
Ezekiel 18:4 KJV
now we have to repent and believe the gospel and we can’t do that by pretending we’re righteous we have to let his light shine first so we can see
Because it’s all about this
“I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
Luke 5:32 KJV
if we deny our own sins we can pretend to be the judge of others but we refuse to step into Gods light because it exposes what in us and him les us before God that’s where we all need to be so we can be healed and made right by faith
The Lord in fact did reveal to me that the earth is flat. He clearly didn't reveal that truth to you. Your anger is a waste of emotion.
In light of there being only one unforgivable sin seems a reasonable interpretation.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive
us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we could of ourselves attain righteousness, what need of Jesus?
Yes, God works through us to will and to do in order to fulfill
His good purpose. Still, we have yet to put on incorruptibility.
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God;
neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall
not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible,
and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal
must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and
this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that
is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where
is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
Salvation is not about denying sin, its about receiving righteousness.
To be born again, means that Jesus has your sin and God has made you righteous, spiritually.
Someone mentioned the teachings of Mary.
So, whenever possible, i like to post the Catholic Pope looking up at a statue of Mary, adorned with a golden crown, sitting on a Throne.
Can you imagine the leader of the 2nd largest religion in the world, kissing the feet of a 30 ft plastic Mary, in worship?
Well, you dont have to imagine it as he'll kiss a 30ft statue, or a 2 ft statue of Mary.
Keep in mind, before the CC was titled "Catholic Church", it was titled "the cult of Mary",= by a Church Father., about 5ad.
Can you imagine Billy Graham kissing the feet of a plastic statue?
Can you imagine the Apostle Paul kneeling before Mary, as If He's kneeling before God?
When Jesus was dying on the Cross, He didnt refer to her as mother....>He called her "woman".
it’s actually about acknowledging your own sins in the light of the gospel like David did we can’t repent until we get real with God this is light how it makes you feel
Inside
“But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.”
Luke 6:27-28, 30-31, 35-
that’s light brother and we need to believe and walk in it is all
I’m saying if you are able to believe that short wuote and say you are walking upright then kudos but if not let the light shine and it will change your heart
