You can't go to a resurrection. And you will never know eternal life unless you go to the cross.

Always with the cross avoidance and denial with you. Go to the cross and die to your religious posturing.
1- the Cross provided the forgiveness of sins
2- the Resurrection provided life.

If Christ is not risen from the dead you are STILL DEAD IN YOUR SINS - 1 Corinthians 15:17.

where his words not written down for us to see?

Do you deny the Bible ?
I think I understand. There are some key words that a selected , saint,elect, prophet, good will Samaritan, preacher, teacher, of course this must be speaking too me because I’ve chosen this role?

Describe real faith for us how about that. Demons believe, have faith so what.
This is wrong...too superficial. Demons don't have faith, they have belief...just like you do.

Faith gets God's attention. The fire comes down when a sacrifice is presented to Him by faith. By faith Enoch was translated to be with God.

By faith OF Christ we are translated into the kingdom of the Son of God.

Only those who have real faith experience this.

But mockers such as yourself will try to prove that there is no faith greater than your belief. So you will die in your sins because you relied on a religious ego instead of going to God in a broken humility. You think you are beyond that. What an imagination!

More false claims. Quote me as the rules of the forum sat that I have said the following you claimed.

"there is no faith greater than mine"

What does this have to do with Jesus words in John 3?

Can you stick to the word. Or are you just going to act Like jesus did not say what he said?

A child uses words he hears and repeats them back thinking he understands them. I am posting the truth...and you rebel like the mocker you are. :rolleyes:
Scripture declares- sanctify them in truth , thy word is truth. John 17:17.

You only provide your opinions not scripture. A foundation built upon sinking sand.

More false quoting. Why do you lie so much???

I said...you think your beliefs are greater than faith... (not my faith...that's a knee jerk automatic fabrication based on your very vivid (but not playful) imagination

I never accused you of having faith.

And I am not the boaster here. I claim nothing for myself. All the vapourings of the ego come from you. You are simply trying to drag me down into the mire with you as you drown in the excesses of the carnal mind.

A lie. You are posturing again. Find that fictitious quote. I realize how dishonest and spiteful you are.

All egos are affronts to God. You need to look at your own.
I don;t have an ego. I have christ. And he gets all the glory

and your now denying you have never said you heard directly from God. And we should listen to you?

You are adding sophistication to Bible verses you think support your ideas…

Anybody can buy an bible...read a little of it...and come to the wildest conclusions based on listening to hyped up sermons meant to deceive the simple. This is about spiritual discernment.
Your self proclamation of being “the adult in the room” is pride at work.
No...it's the most true statement. Ya'll are so proud of being babes in Christ...always referring to being "born again". Justifying your lack of maturity and grace. But you have NOT progressed beyond that. everywhere you look you see the birth room. Always justifying a one time quickening...denying the race...denying the higher walk and the spiritual progression of walking in Zion. You call that either a mystery of not true. I say COME out from the nursery! Go to the cross. Walk in resurrection life over sin. walk in Zion...enter into the kingdom realm of the Spirit. Walk as Jesus walked.

There you go. You have been paying attention......somewhat. :rolleyes: But the cross is not just about forgiveness for past sins.. but also used to crucify the part of us that claims to be saved. The ego.

No one experiences resurrection life unless they themselves go to the cross to be crucified...cut away from the sinful outer man that produces all the antics you are displaying as future judgment against you. (unless you repent you WILL perish)

In Christ you go from being a religious crow (like you are now) to a spiritual eagle that soars in the heavens.

Which is why we must listen ONLY to the holy scriptures!

Not even to me or to @Episkopos

Ya'll are so proud of being babes in Christ...

Not me.

always referring to being "born again". Justifying your lack of maturity and grace.

Making these kinds of judgments are unproductive.

But you have NOT progressed beyond that.

How knowest thou this?

Always justifying a one time quickening...denying the race...

Yes, some do this.

Go to the cross.

A cross that @Waiting on him denies?

Walk in resurrection life over sin.

Amen!

The religious industrial complex...part of the entertainment industry...has done its job well. People are SO immune to the truth that sound doctrine can no longer be tolerated. The flesh has suppressed the Spirit...the monkeys have taken over the zoo. Religious crows feed on death.

The cross is about forgiveness of all sin. Not just past sin.

if its just past sin, we better never sin again. Because if we do. There is no payment
