Nick,Read on …….. Romans 7:23Romans 7:23 (King James Version) 23But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

NickEach in their own order – not everyone is given all now, there is a called and chosen (firstfruits) , and also a general harvest ……….. the harvest needs to be prepared, the chaff separated from the wheat – the chaff (flesh/carnal nature) destroyed but the wheat (spirit) saved. Romans 7:14-25Paul had the problem of having his carnal…[Read more]

This is different from transgression. Inherent sin is separation from God, which is why infants need a believing parent to cover them, according to my understanding. What do…[Read more]

So you think the Pharisees did not understand the meaning…[Read more]

Hi Kerwin,I agree with what you are saying, good post. I have noticed that in the phrase interpreted as “Before Abraham was, I am” the word was is actually G1096γίνομαιginomaighin'-om-aheeA prolonged and middle form of a primary verb; to cause to be (“gen” -erate), that is, (reflexively) to become (come into being), used with great lat…[Read more]

Lk1 35And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.Nick,That says Jesus will…[Read more]

Thank you 942767,I understand that, I am asking David who seems to think that Gods kingdom and reign is physical, when Jesus said that it was not physical and of this earth, it is spiritual however it does have physical signs you can observe, the fruit, which is love, peace, patience etc.

David,When Jesus told the pharisees that the kingdom of God was in their midst and does not come with observation – what do you think that the kingdom was/is? – it could not be himself as he said that they could not observe it. John 18:36 Jesus says that his kingdom is not of this world.Jesus also says God is a spirit and Jesus said he must be…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Jan. 14 2009,10:45)Hi mk, I agree but repeat that our God is never elsewhere called the god of this world.I don't believe that satan is called “the god of this world” either in scripture, the phrase ho theos is not the saying “the” god it is a phrase that most/all other places means GOD as in the almighty God Satan is called…[Read more]

Jodi ……… very good post!! Thanks.

Yes …… It gets frustrating that he seems to not look at what scripture is saying – he looks at the words but does not try to understand what is being said and to whom and how it fits with the rest of scripture. I am trying to learn but find I can not learn much from Nick as he changes like the wind. I agree with Chosenone that in a lot of…[Read more]

The only way to God is through Christ – no one is saying that there is another way – From what I can see you are twisting words…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Jan. 13 2009,06:57)GB, We do not sweeten the message for the sake of sensibilities.God is calling some people and we must not be found as deceivers.In another post you said God through Christ is drawing (all) now you say that he is only calling (some) Christ said he would draw all, but we are also told each in there own…[Read more]

Nick – it says that the enemies are subdued (obedient) you are changing what it is saying – what is destroyed is the fleshly carnality and all that is not of the spirit – there is a spirit in man which returns to God at physical death, that is not a part of the dust/destruction/mortality/corruptible that is to be destroyed and does not inherit…[Read more]

Nick Corinthians says that in Christ (ALL) will be made alive – not only those in Christ to be made alive -When the enemies are put under his feet the same word is used for the subduing of those enemies as is used for when Christ is subject to God – the enemies are enemies no longer, they are loyal, obedient…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Jan. 12 2009,13:36)Hi mK, Indeed Jesus still draws all men.Why do they still rebel?If they are still rebelling – they have not been drawn to him. Paul says that each is in their own order not all in the first resurrection.
