Well, I thought ignoring the hurt would be enough. It took a year, but I finally called and left word with his mother-in-law that I forgive him.

1 John 3:5; 1 John 3:9; Romans 6:7; 17-18; Romans 8:2 a progression: 2 Peter 1:5-7. See last to mature. 1 John 3:4-5; 2 Peter 1:2-4; Matthew 6:14-15 It is the Spirit of Truth who is our teacher, by convicting us through the knowledge in Scripture. We keep growing in this. He doesn't download...

What you don't understand is that the blood of Jesus takes away the desire to commit willful sins of lawlessness, sins unto death. But the sins not unto death we still commit called trespasses. Love is a fruit of the Spirit, and trespasses are sins due to immaturity in the fruit of the Spirit...

The deeper Royal Law of Love is written on our hearts, and given to us without our earning them.

Sometimes it is really hard to forgive, but we must.

I would read it again if I were you. Our past willful sins of lawlessness 1 John 3:4 is what is taken away out of our nature. Trespasses depend on maturity of fruit. They are two different types of sins. Sins unto death, and sins not unto death. We probably disagree on that, but I can't help...

Just know that maturing in the fruit of the Spirit as time goes by reduces the number of trespasses you commit. 2 Peter 1:5-7 are the steps to glorification. Notice the last one to completely mature is love, but is first in the list of fruit. It is the most important fruit of all.

Yes. Maintain righteousness. Jesus has given you everything you need, and empowered you with a new nature, so its easy. Forgiveness is love. Its in your new nature. So it does not mean "work." It would only be a work if it is forced by laws which are against your nature.

When you forgive your brethren for their trespasses against you, your own trespasses are cleansed. Always forgive and you will remain sinless of both. Understand yet? Someday hopefully you will. That is the message of 1 John 1:7 for born again Christians. You maintain fellowship with one...

What you don't understand is that the Royal law to Love God with all your heart, mind and strength and love your neighbor as yourself is written on our hearts as part of the New Covenant. We no longer need Laws written on stone when deeper, more complete laws, are now part of our new born again...

Yes, you know that is what I teach. So why do you teach against sinlessness? Does the Spirit really guide us into sin?

Yes, Jesus was the first one who kept the law as it should, but that was because He was conceived by the seed of the Father. He lived His whole life as a pattern for born again believers who are given the same seed of the Father. That is why in Romans 8:29-30 Jesus was the firstborn of many...

Look at Mark 16:16-18 for us individually. Notice speaking in tongues, but no interpretation of tongues. When we do not know what to pray, pray in tongues TO God, because those words are God's will and He will answer. You may not see the answer, but you are uniting with God for His purpose...

prism, I liked your post, but I haven't read all the pages, but I just want to know if you know the reason we are no longer under the Old Covenant Law, the Ten Commandments? I would like to converse with you. What did Jesus's death do for us to free us from the old law? Are we lawless now? Paul...

We must be like Jesus to be His brethren. Righteous and Holy Rev. 22:11

I understand what Curtis is saying. Abraham was before the Law. God imputed righteousness to Abraham because He believed and obeyed God. Abraham could hear God's voice. Born again Christians do not have "imputed" righteousness as is commonly, but erroneously taught. We are born again with the...

John Wesley got it right, but the Methodists today are making poor old John turn over in his grave! The little Methodist church I was visiting left the denomination.

There aren't any. The station (Paramount) cancelled them. But I don't know why. They have other reality shows on their regular station that are not as popular. And they now have their movies on a station you have to buy and add to your apps for $10 a month.

Well we do. But we can't force everyone to see.

The only thing Catholics are condemned for by Jesus is turning a pagan goddess into Mary. That is what the reference to Jezebel in the letter to Thyatira is all about. But to the Reformationists/Sardis He says, "you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead." That is because they preached...
