1 Chronicles 21:1 then and now viewpoints

KERWIN

The Scriptural equation is intending evil results, Satan provoked a human to sin.

The equation of today is the human provoked himself to sin.

is this not the same thing

k

Jas 1:4 Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

Jas 1:14 but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed.
Jas 1:15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
Jas 1:16 Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers.

scriptures seems to disagree with you

k

the rotten fish as been thrown into the world and so truth and lies are mix,and so we with our own view and mind have to pick which we want to follow and the desires from our hearts will make some pull so that we inclining towards what we want and that may not be what his true or godly truth,

now if we say no to the inclination and chose godly truth that is good

but if we look at the other option and start to think about it how good it would be to possess,THIS MEANS THAT WE ENTISE OUR SELF INTO SIN, and if we give in then SIN AS WIN OVER US AND SO BECOME SINNERS

k

if someone faith in God as gone or fade away he is alresdy gone to the other side ,or on his way there ,

Satan does not temp personly anyone ,he as created the world we live in, this is the spirit of corruption that the true christians have to face and overcome if they want to receive the promise ,this as been made very clear by Christ

k

No he does not only Christ he did ;but because Satan has rebelled against God the almighty and creator ,we have to live in an world of confusion ,deceit ,lies ,and this we have been thougth all of this by our parents ,school teachers ,and has kings or rulers by our advisers ,

so we listen to all these and then make our decisions ,this is the true Christian believers rely on the spirit of Christ and his father to prevent to make a bad decission;

Mt 6:8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
Mt 6:9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“ ‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
Mt 6:10 your kingdom come,
your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Mt 6:11 Give us today our daily bread.
Mt 6:12 Forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
Mt 6:13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’

look at verse 13 if we walk in the spirit we will be protected

so the only thing that God did not do was to deliver David from his wrong doing what he use to do many times ,David relied on that ,like any true Believer does .

k

could you explain to me HOW IS IT THAT RESISTING SATAN HIS A PART OF OUR FAITH

I ALWAYS WAS UNDER THE UNDERSTANDING THAT IT WAS THE REASON FOR OUR RESISTANCE

K

you are mixing all different things into one ;

“1)Believe ?
2)receiving power ?
3)resit other powers or wills?
4)the fruit ?

so what is scriptures says about the faith (believe) is it not the promise of everlasting live ,and how to gain it

2)receiving power ;by bring us to the truth of his written word ,does he not give us the powers that we need yes ,if we trully believe in them that is .

3)so as #2 by believing into the written word of God we would and will be protected ,just as Adam would never die if he stay away from eating of the forbiden tree,

4) the fruits are only the product of Gods power through you ,if you are a good tree you will bring in good fruits if not you will not bring in good but bad fruits and so only good to be burned .

so the faith is not the power but the will we use to believe in the faith is ,this is why God first commandment says ;

LOVE YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR STRENGHT ,ALL YOUR HEART,AND MIND AND SOUL ” and then we can be sure that we are safe and able to resist all powers because God s power will work through us .

Ro 1:11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
Ro 1:12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
Ro 1:13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
Ro 1:14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
Ro 1:15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
Ro 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Ro 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Ro 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

your comment does not cover each item separtly but you do not understand Paul's point to that congregation, it also make me understand that you do not understand what faith his;

Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

JN 3:17 “For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.
JN 3:18 “ He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
JN 3:19 “This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil.
JN 3:20 “ For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
JN 3:21 “But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God.”

JN 4:24 “God is spirit, and those who worship Him “MUST” worship in spirit and truth.”

k

not that are but could be ,and to be, are filled with righteousness, that will be our blessing

we first have to fulfill the request of the faith before we can claim that we have it right YES

no ,that's not it ;it is ;THOSE WHO PRACTICE GODLY LOVE ARE DECLARED RIGHTEOUS, BUT WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO OBTAIN GODLY LOVE IN OUR MIND,HEART AND SOUL

because we can not be divided right see first commandment, AND IT IS ONLY THEN THAT WE REALY KNOW GOD AND HIS SPIRIT OF TRUTH WHO HIS CHRIST ,

NOW YOU CAN SEE HOW MEN CAN BE MISLEAD WHEN YOU ONLY USE ONE OR TWO VERSES AND NOT CONTEMPLATE THE WHOLE SCRIPTURES ,BECAUSE ALL OF THE SCRIPTURES ARE THE TRUTH OF GOD ,

SO LET US INCREASE OUR KNOWLEDGE IN GODS WORD AND BECOME MATURE IN HANDLING THEM WITH A TRUE SPIRIT

K

those who are hungry EAT AND DRINK THE FOOD OF SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE AND HAVE THERE FILLED AND SO LEARN TO PRACTICE NOT THE LOVE OF THE WORLD BUT THE LOVE OF GOD THROUGH CHRIST (GOSPEL OF CHRIST )UNDERSTAND NO ONE THAT IS BORN IN THE FLESH (FROM MEN) KNOWS GOD ,BUT ALL OF US HAVE TO BE REBORN IN CHRIST ,IF THEY WANT TO BE CALLED RIGHTEOUS AND BECOME SONS OF GOD ;BECAUSE HOW CAN SOMEONE PRACTICE SOMETHING HE DOES NOT KNOW ???HE CAN'T

JEWS FIRST THEN THE GENTILES .

IN YOUR COMMENT AND SCRIPTURES SHOWN ,YOU ARE ONLY MENTION THE THING THAT HAVE BECOME WHAT THEY ARE BUT NOT HOW TO GET THERE,SO IT HIS YOUR ASSUMPTION THAT YOU POSSESS THOSE THINGS A SOON THAT YOU THING AND SAY THAT YOU BELIEVE RIGHT NOT SO ,NOT ALL THAT WORKS WOOD ARE CARPENTERS
