pnattmbtc Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 Hilarious. Quote Christ exalted the character of God, attributing to him the praise, and giving to him the credit, of the whole purpose of his own mission on earth,--to set men right through the revelation of God.

Moderators Gerr Posted November 29, 2009 Moderators Posted November 29, 2009 Yep. I love them kilts. Airy in summer. Years ago, we were on a tour in Scotland. Our bus had just pulled into the hotel parking lot where a number of well-dressed people were passing through to go to the hotel, presumably for some kind of party. One fellow in kilts stopped, turned around, bent over, and pulled his kilts up & showed his bare bottom! That answered for us the question, "do Scots wear anything under their kilts?" Quote
Woody Posted November 29, 2009 Posted November 29, 2009 All I know is that the good clean subject of living without sin has been denigrated to the subject of showing "bare bottoms". How just HOW does this happen. WHO started all this? Stand up and be counted. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.

LifeHiscost Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 "...Our works do not save us one iota, it doesn’t even contribute. Evidently the NC Word, as given to James, doesn't agree with that assessment. While one may have faith without works, it is a dead faith "What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”And he was called the friend of God. You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only." James 2:14-16,21-24 NKJV Regards! Quote Lift Jesus up!!

olger Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 "For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?" blessings, g Quote "Please don't feed the drama queens.."
Moderators Gerr Posted November 30, 2009 Moderators Posted November 30, 2009 The old man of sin, must be kilt!! And the new man done quit sinning! Quote

So how can any one claim credit? But this is heresy....What you are doing is taking God's work "in Christ" (imputed righteousness) and adding to that work His "imparted righteousness" (what He does in you)! That means what Christ did 2000 years (in our humanity) is incomplete! Quote
Guest Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Then I should be sinless! Why am I not? Because you're hard headed. Quote
Robert Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Originally Posted By: Gerry Cabalo And the new man done quit sinning![/quote'] Exactly. Less self-seeking is not "done quit sinning"....Who are you kidding? That's an EGW quote! Here: 5 T 479 There should be less proud self-seeking, less self-importance. When the members of the church are clothed with humility, when they put from them self-esteem and self-seeking, when they seek constantly to do God's will_then they will work together in harmony. God's Spirit is one. . . . Quote
Robert Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Originally Posted By: Robert Then I should be sinless! Why am I not? Because you're hard headed. And you are sinless? I think you must be hard headed too, right? Quote
LifeHiscost Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 Originally Posted By: Richard Holbrook I am... that was a good one, huh? I think the term is hard hearted, not hard headed. "But because of thy hardness and impenitence of heart, thou treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the Day of Wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God," Romans 2:5 21st Century KJV "...being darkened in the understanding, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart" Ephesians 4:18 YLT Because confession is good for the soul and misery loves company, I admit I have my own battles. "Be confessing to one another the trespasses, and be praying for one another, that ye may be healed; very strong is a working supplication of a righteous man" James 5:16 YLT I just happen to have a Friend with Whom I leave my heavy work. "And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD's"1 Samuel 17:47 KJV "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."Ephesians 6:12 KJV Blessings!

And why are we still here? Quote
