Nick…..You need to read more in Galatians and understand what Paul was talking about. And then go to Exo 19:20 and see how the Law operated , also it wouldn't hurt to read Romans either. Notice that Moses said the LORD has done this that the (FEAR)of Him be before you so that you sin not. (FEAR) is how the (CARNAL) mind has to be Keep in line,…[Read more]

Nick….it's not (they) as in a person, it should be (it) as in Spirit (intellect) Evil or unclean spirit is ever where because it is intellect, and people are exposed to them every where and even to a point they can become possessed by these thoughts of evil or uncleanness. Jesus simple removes them by the power of GOD. There minds were cleansed…[Read more]

David….Aion, simply means age if it applys to eternal it is said as aion into the aions, if it is stated that way it would mean eternal , or the use everlasting to infer eternal. The greeks had no word for eternal. it should be rendered (AGE) or a period of time.

Again you both are leaning on Mans works as a saving factor. While the Fruit of God's Spirit will be apparent in the life of a true Christan , the fruit is a work from the Spirit of GOD, Not from the mans (own self). “it is God who works in us (BOTH) to will and do of (HIS) good pleasure. WE are supposed to put (OURSELVES) to death remember, So…[Read more]

Nick….it's obvious you don't know the word eternal is not even in scripture, because the Greek language contains no such word, it should be translated aeon, or (AGE). Check out the word. The scripture you quoted has to do with (NATIONS) not individual people. You should learn not to infuse your own desires into scripture. imo
