Nick…….You said, Automatic?….> Mar 4:26…> So is the kingdom of GOD, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; ver 27 ..And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, He knoweth (NOT HOW). Ver 28… For the earth (heart) bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the…[Read more]

Nick……….THERE is NO Such thing as (FREE WILL) there is only CAUSE AND EFFECT. Righteousness is CAUSED BY GO and GOD ALONE>(FREE) Will is a will that has (NO) influencing evolved at ALL. There is no such thing as that even GOD'S WILL is Influenced by His thinking. There is not such thing as free will if there is show us where in scripture it…[Read more]

Nick and 942767………..remember it also says in Titus………you have (NOT) received the Spirit of (FEAR) but of Power and of a Sound Mind. The opposite is also true if you have a spirit of fear you don't have a sound mind and no power to overcome either , So i guess you will have to us FEAR to control the carnal thinking as GOD did those…[Read more]

Nick………have you put away (FAITH) and a (GOOD CONSCIENCE) and substituted it for a FEAR RELIGION . ARE you drive by FEAR or BY FAITH, you can't have BOTH. because fear has torment and nothing is being (PERFECTED) by FEAR. YOU may have gotten the word FEAR mixed up with reverence i don't know. But we have never said not to reverence GOD,…[Read more]

942767……..Repentence to given by God Thats the OLD COVENANT, Which we are (NOT) under < "for you brethren have (NOT) come unto that mountain to (FEAR) as THEY did. So why did they come to that mountain?. it was to FEAR so fear would control them and they would not sin. This is the SAME religion YOU and NICK teach. A religion of FEAR.Let me…[Read more]

Nick……Another ploy to change subject matter Jodi posted the fear and trembling thing right, instead of excepting it you simple change subject matter , But Hears something to consider in your post , Not one of those Israelites were converted were they, For (all) fell below the age of twenty years, Not one went in except Joshua and Caleb…[Read more]

Nick……you really need to take you own advice brother. No I am not greater the Jesus or (true) Scripture thats understood. It's enough that I am JUST LIKE MY TEACHER. Didn't Jesus say “the student is not above His teacher it's enough the He is (JUST LIKE HIM), and again ” until we (ALL) come unto the (FULL MEASURE) of CHRIST”. You holding Jesus…[Read more]

Nick……..Tahts is exactly where (the adversary is) He is not some seperate being running around looking for some one an adversaial spirit is in every mans Heart and must be mastered as stated in Genises. ” if thou doest well you will be accepted, if Not (SIN) Croches (or stocks) at thy Door.

Quote (meerkat @ Dec. 07 2008,18:45)Gene,I have been thinking that Satan, serpent, dragon, devil is not just one being but the adversary which is present in everyone and is a testing of everyone. When it says that the lake of fire was prepared for the devil and his messengers (angels) I believe that is what it is for, not physical mortal beings…[Read more]

To All………Jesus overcame sin in the Flesh by the power of God in Him (not) of Himself. The same way we are to. Jesus was lead up in the wilderness to be tested , and for forty days and nights went without food or water, and after that he was extremely hungry. His (OWN MIND) tempted him saying He could turn these rocks into Bread, but then the…[Read more]

Nick …..again you just ignore posted scripture and go on committing as if they don't even exist and by the way Romans was written after Jesus made that statement. True repentance itself is a work of GOD (Not a Self ACT) of Man, “for we are sorrowed unto righteousness” and again (GODLY) Sorrow (WORKS) REPENTANCE (NOT) to be REPENTED OF> this…[Read more]

Nick……..Ignoring scriptures isn't the answer either, Explain to us How you repent them, is it of the Self (by the Operation of FREE WILL). Or can someone even repent with out GOD CAUSING IT TO HAPPEN? Explain this to Us . It;s good to quote scripture but better to understand them. imo peace……………gene
