Nick,
I do not see where what we say differs.
As a hypothesis I think you are emphasizing the word gentle in opposition to my word reject.

Nick,
That is the result of God rejecting them.

Nick,
I agree that if a human receives the Spirit and rejects it so too will God reject them.

T8,
The Jews, including Jesus, are born holy because they received the word of God. Jesus is also holy because he received the Spirit of God. (Matthew 12:18) Anyone who receives the Spirit become a child of God. (Galatians 4:6) In Mark 14:36 Jesus specifically states “Abba, Father” which links it to both Romans 8:15 and Galatians 4:6 that both…[Read more]

@t8,
They say that you cannot be a saviour or messiah until the work is done.
Wrong. God sent the messiah to save. God sent the Lord to bring all things into submission. God sent the son to redeem those that were lost so they could have sonship.
There is no evidence supporting your statement.
You are faced the fact that God has stated he…[Read more]

I am not seeing your point.
What the passage teaches me is those who do not believe the word of God that is in the gospel do not believe the word of God.
It is about those who cherry pick the word of God.
In this particular matter it is probably addressed to those whom put to much emphasis on the symbols of things to come…[Read more]

Danny Dabbs,
I read it in the AV of the KJV and it sounds like random sentences. It has at pronoun’s in it and the translators seem to have forgotten Koine Greek Grammar and English are different so I am wondering what “That” is.

Technically stress in me not working hard when I should be. The strange think is that I may be avoiding the stress of doing something that needs to be done. Simon’s words to come into effect in that case unless the stress is caused by a deadline.

Sorry, but I am not seeing a disagreement between you two as I hear the same message from both of you. Why are you writing as if you disagree?

ED,
The words of the LORD are purified seven times in a furnace of earth?
I assume you misspoke as that is not what it says.
As you already know God’s word does not need purifying.
What is written means the word of God is as pure as precious metal refined to completion.
Seven is the number of completion for creation was finished when God…[Read more]

“How say they that Christ is David’s son?
The answer is “as of the flesh” and is provided in Scripture. (Romans 1:3)
He is God’s son as of the Spirit and Spirit is superior to the flesh, when David knew when He said “The Lord said to my Lord”. (Psalms 110:1)

t8,
Previously I stated,
There is the ordinary human like in “…but was in all points tempted like as we are,…” (Hebrews 4:15)
The folly is to believe Jesus is not an ordinary man for then you disagree with the words “…but was in all points tempted like as we are,…” and create an obstacle for both yourself and those that believe your words.

That is a good one.
I believe he is speaking along the same lines as Paul; except with believe as the pertinent verb.
1 Corinthians 11:1Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

t8, miia, and whomever else is concerned,
There is the ordinary human like in “…but was in all points tempted like as we are,…” (Hebrews 4:15)
He was not given the ordinary measure of faith. That is what believers aim for according to Ephesians 4:13.

I agree we hope in him. We trust in him to do God’s will, which is equivalent to trusting in the Spirit.
