    Mistake in Translation - Galatians 5:17

    You are not answering the questions. Read them again and be honest with yourself. To help you though, the spirit and mind are the same thing. It has been reborn. Before being reborn our mind struggled against the flesh, and the flesh against the mind. The soul is our heart. It has also been...

    Mistake in Translation - Galatians 5:17

    Let me ask you a question. Read the next verse. 1 John 1:9 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. How much sin is left? Would you really be lying if your answer was none? Think! Another question: How many times...

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    Iconoclast, please read this all as I really would like you to understand where I'm coming from, and what I see as the gospel of the New Covenant. From what I've seen in you, it seems you think what I believe is impossible. But I don't, because I experienced the extreme change in my nature in...

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    The Ten Commandments, the ministry of death, is still in effect? Do you keep the seventh-day Sabbath, the sign of the Old Covenant in the middle of the Ten Commandments?

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    When you walk in the Spirit and stay there as Paul command us to not quench the Spirit, you will not be fulfilling the lust of the flesh of the old carnal nature. Those who walk in the flesh cannot please God and they will not inherit the Kingdom of God. In other words, they are not Christians...

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    Did you know what "law" Paul was speaking of in Romans 7? Verse 7 gives you a hint. So does Ex. 34:28. I'm sorry that you cannot see the contrast of Law vs. Spirit - Old vs. New Covenants.

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    Here we go again. The verses from Romans 7 are about those under the Old Covenant BEFORE Christ and the Spirit. Yes, sin was in our members then. But the law of the Spirit of life in Christ has set Paul (me) free from the law of SIN and death. Jesus frees us from sin. He is not forgiving us as...

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    What is your definition of God's grace? I bet it is unmerited favor. Does it go so far as to say grace covers our sins so God doesn't see them?

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    A "negative" would be "thou shalt NOT" murder. (The opposite of love) A "positive" would say "LOVE"

    Mistake in Translation - Galatians 5:17

    The question should be do you willfully sin when you don't have to? My answer is no. But before being filled with the Spirit I was literally a slave to sin. Some on here confuse sinlessness with perfection. When you are justified, you are sin free. 1 John 1:9 has cleansed you of ALL...

    Mistake in Translation - Galatians 5:17

    What you just quoted as your belief is exactly what I mean, and the capital S is the reason why you believe this error. That verse in Romans 7 is BEFORE Christ. It was when all we had was the Law. Then Paul met Jesus and the Spirit freed Paul from the struggle in Romans 7. Romans 8:2 For the law...

    Mistake in Translation - Galatians 5:17

    It is a contrast. Law vs. Spirit. It is the same contrast as Romans 7:14-25 vs. Romans 8:1-9 You are not leaving out the Spirit, because that is what makes you not under the law. Galatians 5:18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Christians are either in the Spirit or...

    Mistake in Translation - Galatians 5:17

    That is the natural assumption with the capital S. But we are NOT IN THE FLESH when in the Spirit, so there is no war, no struggle. Romans 8:9 The key living the Christian life is to STAY in the Spirit. Then you will keep growing and never stumble. 2 Peter1:2-11

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    I would say that the Holy Spirit has these characteristics: draws us to believe and know God empowers us to be a slave of righteousness instead of sin reveals the truth in God's Word as the Spirit of Truth unifies us in love writes God's laws on our conscience. See your focus? It is...

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    Sin. A doctrine of demons wants us to go to hell so will create doctrines that will be apathetic toward us committing sins, like "the blood of Jesus COVERS our sins as we commit them." Maybe you've even heard of that one. The truth is the blood of Jesus TAKE AWAY the sin nature so that we don't...

    Mistake in Translation - Galatians 5:17

    Here is an edit I just made. The mind struggles against the flesh, and the flesh against the mind's knowledge of the Law, but there is no struggle in the Spirit. For we are not in the flesh when in the Spirit, and not under the Law. That error in capitalization has caused whole denominations...

    The Blessed Hope: The Second Coming Of Christ

    also @BarnyFife Those 2000 years was prophesied with a calculation of a day equals 1000 years. Hosea 6:1-3 2 days = 2000 years 1 day = 1000 year Millennium.

    Mistake in Translation - Galatians 5:17

    Galatians 5:16-18 16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the...

    What does it mean to 'study the Bible'?

    Yes, that 'spirit' produces what the Bible calls "doctrines of demons."

    God changed Seventh Day Sabbath Worship to First Day of the Week

    Hey QT They claimed there was scripture specifically saying that Noah kept the Sabbath. I don't recall reading that, and would love to see the scriptures they are using. You obviously know what they are talking about so I'll let you look it up and provide it. How about it. Up for the challenge...
