Hi KW,
Is murdering the truth of human wisdom?April 17, 2012 at 11:55 pm#293041kerwinParticipantQuote (Nick Hassan @ April 17 2012,12:42) Hi KW,

Nick,An untruth is the result of the murder of the truth.
Human wisdom is that wisdom that falls short of the glory of God.
Human wisdom is the result of the murder of the truth.

Nick,Have you actually tested the reasoning I write down to see if is from me or from God?

Why bother testing what is of man when God wants to teach us?April 18, 2012 at 2:39 pm#293187GeneBalthropParticipantTo all………….Why did Jesus say this.
John 16:25…….These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs (fictitious illustrations). . but the time comes when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, (fictitious illustrations) but I shall show you “PLAINLY” of the FATHER. So is the FATHER clearly understood yet? I think not, and becasue of all the Fictitious language used in scriptures like symbolizing and Personification of Spirits and what they are, there has arisen many strange and false teachings. We should try to put all scriptures together on a subject . Not understanding what SPIRITS (ARE) is a major stumbling block IMO>
peace and love to you all……………………….gene

Nick,We are both instructed to test the spirits of what we hear.
Proverbs 12:15
King James Version (KJV)15The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
Be a wise man and not a fool and test what you hear, believe, and do to see if it comes from God or not.

Gene,Proverb is not defined as a fictitious illustration. A proverb is a saying, often in metaphorical form, that embodies a common observations. That definition is from the Online Merriam-Websters dictionary entry for adage; a synonym of proverb.

Nick,I am confident my foundation is not based on human nature as I do not seek to justify that I am sinning but I instead seek to love as God loves and so stop sinning.
Can you presently say the same?

You are stuck on this SIN thing.There is now no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus.[rom8]
Blessed are those whose sins are covered.[ps32]1Jn 5.18f

Nick,You are just hearing from Scripture what your itching ears want to hear. Repent and come into the light for it is those that hunger and thirst for righteousness that are God's people and not those that reject the Spirit and so continue to sin.
Some context to what you quoted:
1 John 3
King James Version (KJV)2Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
4Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
5And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
6Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.Those that are in Christ Jesus “sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. “
Ezekiel 18
King James Version (KJV)21But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
22All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.Blessed are those whose sins are covered because they turned from committing sins to committing righteousness.

Have you not taken up the breastplate of righteousness?

Nick,You take up the breastplate of righteousness by being righteous. That can only be accomplished through the power of God.
April 19, 2012 at 5:13 am#293403NickHassanParticipantHi KW,
When are you going to make yourself righteous enough?
Never.We need the washing of our consciences[1peter 3]
Then we receive the RIGHTEOUSNESS of the LORD.
Not of ourselves so none can boast but a gift.April 19, 2012 at 1:55 pm#293477GeneBalthropParticipantTo All…………> Why does scripture say OUR righteousness is as “Filthy” Rags to GOD. Notice how OUR “RIGHTEOUSNESS” is compared to “FILTHY RAGS” why put it that way, is it not becasue one can not be CLEANSED with Filthy Rags Which is his OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS or a RIGHTEOUSNESS that comes from SELF> if THE RIGHTEOUSNESSES is coming from the self it is not of GOD but the SELF. Many do not understand that, we must be “CREATED BY GOD UNTO (HIS) RIGHTEOUSNESS . A “FREE WILLER'S” type of salvation is not of GOD but MAN> It must be this way. it is GOD who works (IN) us both to will and do of (HIS) good Pleasure and again, not of power or strength, but by MY SPIRIT says the ETERNAL. And again unless the LORD build the House the weary builders build in VAIN. True righteousness is a “CREATION” by GOD ALONE> God said I will take out of them the “STONY HEART” and give them a HEART of FLESH (a soft heart) and write “MY” law in there HEART and they shall be MY people and I will be there GOD

Quote When are you going to make yourself righteous enough?
Never.I, myself, am a servant of sin but Jesus frees me from sin. Only if I stop sinning am I free from sin as anyone who sins is a servant of sin.
Either Jesus tells the truth and he will stop me sinning or he lies and he cannot. I believe he tells the truth.Quote We need the washing of our consciences[1peter 3] Those that believe make a pledge of a clear conscious before God as they pledge to obey him in all things. If a person does not believe the promise that they will become righteous as God is righteous and every other promise of God then they are not a believer though they may claim otherwise.
Quote Then we receive the RIGHTEOUSNESS of the LORD.
Not of ourselves so none can boast but a gift.This is true.
