Nick,There are those that use teach and train in righteousness but their efforts are in vain if the student is not also being taught by the Spirit.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,01:51)Hi KW, Yes we are reborn of water and the Spirit and the Spirit can renew our minds according to the WordNick,Let's just say spirit of our mind though I think it is the same thing as renewing our mind.

T,You bear the fruit you walk by.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,04:55)Hi KW, So you do not understand him?Nick,I think I have most of it but not the part I told you about. It is about death in part but not the resurrection.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,04:51)Hi T, That is the work of the SpiritNick,Yes and no. Remember the words of 2 Timothy 3:16.

Nick,I have looked at it again and he is speculation on his death that he does not feel will happen.  Should I die I will be with Christ.  The statement seems to depart from where it is written other places that the dead go to Sheol.  The dead do not have flesh so he may be being literal or he may just be speaking of mortal flesh or a co…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,04:30)Hi KW, Same topic.We leave the flesh for a better placeNick,The passage seems complicated so I want to look at it better. It may be because I looked at it in the older English of the AV of the KJV.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,02:40)Hi KW, Be careful how you speak of Paul. His heart was of God but his Body was yet influenced by “sin in the flesh”.Death would free him and he wanted to die..Romans 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.Nick,In that passage he is speaking of being freed from servitude to sin. Her was a wretch when he…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,02:25)Hi KW, Phil 121 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:24 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,02:26)Hi KW, Phil320 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.Nick,That is true.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,02:37)Hi KW “Body of this death”Nick,Spiritual dead. That is why he is alive in his mind at the same time.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 21 2014,02:34)hi KW, yes.So you will still need access to a latrine?Nick, I assume Adam and Eve as wells as the children of Israel did. I see no reason that is not the same with the changed body.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 20 2014,22:25)Hi GB, Rom724 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.Nick,That is not about the resurrection. Paul is teaching us how things when he was…[Read more]

Wakeup,Quote When will you wake up, and understand, that the scribes are not there to lead us to the truth,but to lead us astray.You really should watch yourself to make sure you do not disagree with Jesus.Matthew 13:52Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)52 Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 20 2014,22:33)Hi KW, Will you eat the food of angels or will you need access to the latrine for eternity?Nick,Adam and Eve and all the living souls in the garden were herbivorous. The children of Israel ate manna.

T,Are you claiming that the soul of the word was placed into a human body instead of the body of the word being transformed into a human body?

Nick,Titus 3:5New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)5 he saved us, not because of any works of righteousness that we had done, but according to his mercy, through the water of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.Footnotes: Titus 3:5 Gk washing

Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 06 2014,14:03)Hi KW,17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18 They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. 19 Having…[Read more]
