Restoring the way of Christ to the church is a pursuit of the full measure of grace obtainable in Christ who is the finisher of our faith and not only its author. The way that is in Christ is the way of holiness; whereby a walk at that level produces the Christ-likeness in character that is the...

BE holy for I am holy DO righteous judgment.

Righteousness is about DOING. Holiness is about BEING.

God is also merciful. Is mercy the same as holiness? You are the one making the comparison....but in error. When speaking about God's judgments, He is righteous. God will judge the world in righteousness.

these terms are never synonymous. Can you cite a reference that shows that?

Jesus said that there are two main commandments that encapsulate both the Law and the Prophets which in turn, cover both holiness and righteousness. Could the seeming contradictions in the Bible be due to the existence of these two standards?

IOW...Don't repent. o_O :Ohpleze::rolleyes:

Do we understand the purpose of the parable of the unjust steward and how that can give us the wisdom we need to escape the dire consequence of failing God's grace?

Are we holding on to the hope of freedom in Christ or have we settled for religious preferences from the menu offered to us by the ecclesiastical system that has no power to free us from the bondage of sin? Join me as we explore the true meaning of liberty in Christ.

The rapture (snatching away to heaven) is coming. Who will be ready? In a time when the whole world (including Christendom) is deceived by the Devil, will we seek the Lord and wash our robes in the Blood of the Lamb now, by choice; or will we delay this until the Great Tribulation compels us to...

Thank you for your reply. I cover the harder judgment for the church in the video. The church is to be judged against holiness (loving God with all we have and are AND loving others) The world is to be judged against righteousness (loving one's neighbour as oneself)

What does it mean that Jesus is the Saviour of the whole world ESPECIALLY those that believe? By what standard will God judge the world? And what of the church?

Are you looking for a religious certainty or a faith adventure? Are you willing to pay the price for an intimate walk with God? Join me as we explore what it means to be with Jesus outside the camp.

The Father did no such thing. WE esteemed Him to be full of sin...not the Father. And the Principalities and Powers saw to His death. As such WE laid our sinful ways onto Christ. And many continue to do that very thing. Jesus became sin for (by) us, not for (by) God.

If you tell a lie often enough...as if it's an official truth...people WILL buy it...especially if it caters to the flesh. For example the word "bad" used to mean "not good". But "figuratively" it can mean good in the modern world. And this finds its way into dictionaries because meanings...

That's not accurate. Without shedding of blood there is no sanctification. Modern bibles translate the word the Greek aphesis incorrectly. Jesus came to set us free from sin...not forgive us for continuing sin.

Jesus Christ came into the world, a world He had co-created with His Father. But, the world did not recognize Him. Instead, He was deemed to be worthy of death. Why did Jesus allow Himself to be treated in this way?

Doctrine begins and ends with love. Love is sound doctrine if practiced. Love of the truth is rare in our time...and is the defense against all false doctrine. All false doctrine makes the way easier for people and caters to the flesh with all its vices intact.

They don't. I have tried to instruct you but in vain as you live in an English only prison that makes you a captive of whatever words (no matter how inaccurate) the translators choose to use. ἄφεσις aphesis af'-es-is From G863; freedom; (figuratively) pardon: - deliverance, forgiveness...

This is a human reasoning that denies the power and merely gives a new label...which did NOT have to have Jesus die for. A saint is one who has actually become righteous...not just be labeled as one. All this name it and claim it is destructive to the truth which is about POWER. He gives men...
