That is an honest confession brother Kerwin, that's why I always like your posts here in this forum. Infact I also have doubts about Jesus' sinlessness. Paul says in Rom 8:3 “For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ May 21 2010,15:45)Adam,I do disagree with what is referred to as mainline Christianity on the issues of sin and forgiveness.  I go by what God told Ezekiel on the issue and not by what mankind tells me.  In Ezekiel 33:14-16 we are instructed by God that it is only after a wicked man changes his ways and does what is right that he w…[Read more]

Hope others will see truth in your words brother Gene.Love and peaceAdam

Quote (942767 @ May 21 2010,09:57)Hi Adam:This is what God has said:Quote 1 John 5: 9If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son. 10He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ May 20 2010,22:30)Gollamundi,John 1:9 is a poor translation of the common Greek language as the word translated sin in it is not the same word translated sin in 1 John 2:1 when John is definitely speaking about the sin act and using the word if indicating some do and some do not sin.   I do not see John contradicting himself after…[Read more]

The author of Hebrews in the *King James Version* (KJV) of the ChristianBible once again had to alter Hebrew scripture in an attempt to show that aPsalm of David refers to Jesus.*The subject Psalm in the KJV*:*Psalm 40*6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thouopened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not…[Read more]

Quote (t8 @ May 20 2010,16:03)I am free to believe that there is free will or there isn't free will. I choose that there is free will and some of you haven't. Explain that.So brother T8 you first?

Quote (kerwin @ May 20 2010,18:47)Gollamundi,Actually there is support though Jesus' name is not mentioned explicitly.  Take Deuteronomy 18:14-22.  Jesus was such a prophet as he promised those that hunger and thirst for righteousness would be filled and those that were in servitude to sin that they would be freed.The fullfillment of his promise a…[Read more]

So you mean to say that there is no sin in this alleged Messianic age of Christianity? & Do you mean to say that no Christian will commit sin any more?

Quote (kerwin @ May 20 2010,16:32)Gollamundi,Different sects of so called Jews have different beliefs and I cannot speak for them all but there is definately those who believe that the Messianic Age is a time when only the righteous will roam the earth and there will be no sin. They use Zephaniah 3:13 to support that tenet.  It explicly states…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ May 20 2010,16:23) It is only though obey all Jesus teaches that one can be freed of that servitude to sin.I will address one final point and that is Psalms 4:6-7Who do the so called Jews say this scripture speaks of?  Does it speak of a righteous man in general?Hi brother Kerwin,The first sentence in the above post of yours has n…[Read more]

Good posts brothers Gene and Jerry. I agree with both of you on negating the myth of Free Will.

Quote (kerwin @ May 18 2010,21:27)gollamudi,Did you miss the contradiction is what you state Jewish thought is?According to Jewish theology the Anointed One will issue in the age of righteousness in which no one sins.If no one sins then there is no need for sacrifices to atone for ones sins.Can you resolve this contradiction?Hi brother Kerwin,That…[Read more]

Not necessarily the Person him self. Jesus is the example that all…[Read more]

This is too much to claim that Jesus was the only priest available at that time. That too Roman cross was not a place for any Temple sacrifice. It is purely the speculation on your part to say Jesus was the priest to self sacrifice himself for the remission of sins when God never demanded for any human sacrifice for the remission of sins. Instead…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ May 19 2010,16:11)It is my belief that they did away with the daily sacrifice in fullfilment to the prophecy of Daniel and not because of Jesus who died and was resurected many years previous to their doing away with the daily sacrifice.This is exactly what I am arguing here is that Jesus' death can not be taken as a sacrifice to…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 18 2010,21:24)Hi GM, The temple curtain is torn. Follow Jesus.Hi borther Nick,That is purely the interpretation of the N.T writers but the sacrifices continued even after Jesus' crucifixion and they will be restored during the Third Temple period.Peace to youAdam

So you ignore my post above brother Kerwin?

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ May 13 2010,03:07)Adam…….Something to consider that the people ruled by Jesus and the Saints (are not converted people) AND ARE STILL CARNAL MINDED and that is why they keep the animal sacrifices again and all the feast days. Jesus and the Saints will indeed rule over the world and the evil will be removed for a thousand…[Read more]
