Yes, I wrote "drafts" of what I wanted to say. Then later I revisited the "draft" and edited it for spelling, grammar, and clarity. Sometimes I even changed the content after I had "thought through" the endeavor. I use the "edit" function all the time on this board. And of course I often...

We disagree. First you treat G4560 as in interchangeable with G4559. The OP provided support for the view they were NOT used interchangeably. Using your order of wording, Romans 7:14 can be read as " But I am unregenerate, sold under sin...." Next, of course we do not live perfectly once...

Romans 7:14 For we know that the Law is spiritual, but I am of flesh, under sin. Let's consider the spiritual state of the author at the time of this writing? Is Paul referring to when he was saved, or back to when he was unsaved. The use of sarkinos (G4560) indicates he was not saved at the...

I do not think you are recognizing that God credits a person's faith as righteousness. None of the verses you cited even address the topic. If you are not seeking truth, please do not waste time with obfuscation posts. Not to put too fine a point on it, but there is a difference from being...

Not what it says! You have the person being made righteous, rather than his or her faith being credited as righteousness. Big difference. Romans 4:5 NASB But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as...

"An adjective form of the word is "sarkikos" (G4559) and refers to being under control of our depraved appetites, and is applied to both lost people and saved people, with their minds set on fleshly desires." More to the point, use of this word indicates those people are under the influence of...

No, as anything blessed by God is just dandy. Scripture clearly endorses the try and try again method of striving for maturity. Underneath it all is the false dichotomy, its either one or the other, when both are in play. Our biological "design" is specified in our first fertilized cell...

I am assuming this thread is intended to be humor. If the 1611 translation was inspired and perfect, then the subsequent revisions introduced error. If a subsequent revision corrected an error, then the 1611 was not perfect nor inspired. Rather than accept this truth, the only-ites obfuscate.

Read Romans chapter 4. Paul explains that the faith God credits as righteousness is rewarded. The inability to grasp the obvious indicates perhaps someone has already slid down the heretical slope of man-made false doctrine.

The Greek noun (transliterated) Sarx (G4561) literally refers to flesh, but is also used to refer to the depraved appetites of the flesh, otherwise called sin. An adjective form of the word is "sarkikos" (G4559) and refers to being under control of our depraved appetites, and is applied to both...

Reasons why professed Christians fail to see that the doctrines of grace are false 1) They have never studied the verses used for their supposed support. 2) They have been mislead by a false teacher, who also had not discerned their falsehoods. 3) They go on pro-Calvinist websites, and drink...

The news media is filled with stories about whether Mr. Trump will use the B_2 bunker buster. This seems a side story to me. Even if all of the stock-piled highly enriched uranium was destroyed or removed, and all the centrifuges were destroyed, that would not prevent say North Korea, Russia...

Thanks Salty, no edification is occuring

Post after post displays willful ignorance, unstudied to be sure, of what scripture actually teaches. If we accept these posts, the difference between being people of flesh, unregenerate, and people with their mind set on the flesh, is beyond the poster's grasp. My guess is blindness due to...

Does this poster claim a choice with only one outcome is a choice or a non-choice. Does this poster claim an event that happens by chance was predestined or not predestined.

Once again, this poster ignores and denies Luke 13:24. This is all they have, folks, endless claims that scripture does not mean what it says. Not Luke, 13:24, not 2 Thessalonians 2:13, not James 2:5, not 1 Timothy 2:6, and on and on. They make claims like the rich young ruler was saved...

Act 13:39 (interpretive translation) and through Him everyone who believes is justified from everything they could not be justified by the Law of Moses. Recall that Paul taught that no flesh is justified by the Law, Galatians 2:16 Everyone who believes refers to everyone...

I did not listen to the 45 minute sermon, but I did look up Jude 1 in the NASB: Jude, a bond-servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James, To those who are the called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ: Note the order of the actions. In the OP (probably a KJV like...
