    Hi Gene,

    You said: Jesus’ life (his blood) was an example for the forgiveness of sins.

    Me: The Bible says otherwise. Ephesians 1:7
    In whom we have redemption through his blood, 👉the forgiveness of sins👈, according to the riches of his grace;

    Amen.

    Desire Truth…….Jesus’ life (his blood) was an example for the forgiveness of sins.  That is not the same as saying he Paid our sin debt “for us” .  If we “drink” (take to ourselves to live as he lived) we are drinking (taking to ourselves “his life”, by conforming to the “way” he lived).  That is exactly what the words to, “eat and drink” means. [Read more]

    Hi DT,

    You have sadly made a shipwreck of your faith.

    Craving for knowledge and understanding and certainty you have become lost.

    Instead you need wisdom which James told us was available to all.

    You need to find again the anchor for your soul, a hope so sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil, where Jesus has entered as a…[Read more]

    NINA AS GOOD AS DEAD, PART 1

     

    Nina clutched the Bible close to her chest. Tears poured out of her like a pot boiling over. Her little body shook. “Oh, God!” The words seemed to burst out of the deepest, darkest part of her.

    Why didn’t He want her? Why? The wail was the loneliest, saddest note—…[Read more]

    @Carmel,

    If Jesus is conceived of the Holy Spirit, then he is not of the “seed” of David, and therefore is automatically disqualified as being the Messiah. Now what?

    You: “NO MAN NO  SPERM! GOD DOESN’T NEED THAT FILTHY SATANIC STUFF!”

    Are you going to “Hail Mary full of grace”; ho…[Read more]

    Hi Nick,

    Hi C,

    We know from Ps 104 that the Spirit creates.

    We know that Jesus was conceived in, and born of Mary.

    No suggestion in scripture that she was not the mother of the Lord Jesus.

    Are you telling us a conceptus was placed in the womb and she was only a surrogate mother?

    First, no response to post #944944 directed to you? Would love to hear your thoughts on those questions.

    Second, please enlighten me to the definition of “iniquities.” I was using words from two different translations.

    Third, you keep saying Jesus isn’t required for the forgiveness of sin and you ask where did Jesus ever say this:…[Read more]

    You’re not helping DD by telling him
    among others:
    “Please note by using the words “our” and “us”, Jesus was including himself in that prayer also.”
    1)Jesus never had to confess a single fault to God, so it is a big error to say that Jesus included himself in this prayer.
    Jesus gave this model of prayer to the disciples who asked him “how to…[Read more]

    Hi Berean,

    CHRIST means ANOINTED.

    The Spirit of Christ is the Spirit of anointing.

    Without his anointing at the Jordan by the Holy Spirit

    Jesus would have remained just a pious man, devoted to serving his God.

    @ DT

    Isaiah 59:2
    But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

    Sin separates us from God since Adam and Eve….If God through the Son, sent from the Father, had not approached the first couple, humanity would have had no hope….(Genesis 3: 8-24)

    @Danny,

    Can you show me in the OT where it says I must believe in the Messiah for salvation?

    Better yet, explain how Jesus can be the Messiah since he was conceived of the spirit and NOT from the seed of David. This actually poses a problem, because either the spirit did conceive the child in Mary and therefore Jesus is NOT of the seed of David…[Read more]
