Here are some teachings to the sainted ones of God.

1) God looks at us through the spectacles of Christ.

2) Once you've given your life to God and He accepts it, it's harder to get out of His will, than it is to stay in it.

3) Faith is the substance of things hoped for, "Not fact!".... When that which is hoped for becomes fact, faith by its very nature ceases to operate.

4) The faith connection can be renewed by 10, 000 stumbling. But that faith connection must be maintained in order for eternal life to be there.

5) The born again experience is the replacement in us, the regeneration in us of a living substance. And that substance is Gods own life that He gifts to us because we do something He wants. And there's a condition for that gift..... Faith and faithing, a continually surrendered life to Him and a life inspired by such surrender.

6) we become the habitation of God, through His Spirit.

7) Once God has laid His call on you, there is no neutral territory.

8) Holiness is about " Commitment posture", not right deeds.

9) Theres nothing more important in this life, than ever increasing faith and faithing. A better personal surrender to Him and a life inspired by such surrender .

10) Testing, trials, and pressure is part of the state of mind that faith and faithing produces.

11) Sacrificing self is the first element of " bearing our cross. "

12) tribulation comes from the word "tribulum", which is the word for " rod", used to beat the wheat from the chaff.

13) God treats us like we are just like Jesus (justification) . He gives us eternity, the presence of His Son, our inheritance, seated with His Son in heavenly places, every time we engage faith action. (Pisteuo...." a personal surrender to Him and a life inspired by such surrender. ")

Holiness is very much about right deeds. Wrong behavior defiles the temple

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Titus 2:11-13​

Tribulation is a translation of the Greek θλίψις (thlipsis) which means pressure. tribulum looks like a later Latin word

G2347 θλίψις thlipsis (thliy'-psis) n.
pressure

?Faithing?

Faithe, faither, and faithing are the words
the English language should have had for the Translation of pisteuo, the corresponding verb to pistis ( the English word faith).

The English doesn't have a corresponding verb to the noun "Faith" like the Greek does with pisteuo.

Because of that we have the words believe, believer, and believing, which are mistranslations.

Pisteuo defined as an act, "based upon a belief " sustained by confidence,. Specially, a personal surrender to Him and a life inspired by such surrender.

The words believe, believer, and believing are only a part of what pisteuo is. Taken as the whole meaning is error, and using them along with making Gods word the object of faith is also error.

There's no need for new coined words that just complicate everything. The word believe can mean more than just believing with the mind; it can also mean believing with the heart, and scripture teaches us that saving faith is more than just mental belief.

"A personal surrender to Him and a life inspired by such surrender" is just your personal mantra, that you keep repeating over and over and over as if it is some kind of magical formula that opens the door to secret knowledge that you insist you have, but others don't. It means something to you based on your personal experience, but since others haven't had your experience it's unlikely that it will mean anything to them; and IMO it's not a good description of faith based on how scripture describes faith.

14) when you put an offering on the altar and turn loose of it ( our continually surrendered life) , you have sainted it. Thats where the word comes from. It's not about perfection, it's "Commitment posture. "

17) Without freedom, there's no trust. Without freedom, there's no love. And God wants trust and love freely given. And to get it, He unleashed a monster called "Freedom".

If a person in in the state of Rom. 7: 14-21, we are separated (sanctified) from our sinful nature . But, until we die, we are still teathered to the sinful nature. What that means is we can choose to surrender our lives to the sinful nature, instead of Jesus. As long as our faith and faithing are secure ( a continually surrendered life) the Father only sees Christ.
