Hi Gene,

Yes the body has become a sepulchre full of dead men’s bones.

The mind and the heart serve the God of this world.

Only God by His Spirit could fix the problem.

So he sent the Son in the likeness of sinful flesh.

His heart was towards the service of His heavenly Father.

He obeyed the Word, was transformed in the spirit of his h…[Read more]

Hi Jodi,

Indeed you have spent much of your posts establishing your definitions.

And you have used constant repetition to try to solidify your dogma.

But it is all a man made deception and against the written truth.

Hi T8,

What is it that you do not accept in these scriptures of God?

Do you serve the interests of God or men?

Hi Jodi,

So by you defining Satan out of the bible you have created millions of human devils.

You have made the creation of God evil.

Hi Jodi,

So Eve was created with a deceiving mind?

Hi Jodi,

The prince of this world is allowed to test the brothers in the fires of tribulation.

It is necessary for them to go through the fire.

Hi T8,

There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

Hi T8,

Yes love does not rejoice in unrighteousness,

but rejoices with the truth.

Hi T8,

Yes.

Now the Lord is the Spirit.

Hi T8,

Love..does not rejoice in unrighteousness,

but rejoices with the truth.

Hi T8,

Jesus Christ is the messiah, the Son of the living God.

Born in Bethlehem and though he died he lives.

Hi Jodi,

You have to work so hard in your efforts to justify the removal of Satan from the bible.

Your complex intellectualisations and rationalisations tie you in knots.

Is it worth it as you seem to have found few followers?

Hi Jodi,

Yes the work of God through Jesus, the prophets and apostles, was difficult.

A recovery mission planting seeds of righteousness in the hearts and minds of those who served Satan.

But He Who is in us is greater than he who is in the world.

Hi Jodi,

Man was made in the image of God.

Do you find fault in the work of God?

Do you think God created man as evil?

Hi Jodi,

Indeed the father of the brood of vipers is the serpent.

And the sons of the devil are devils.

Hi Jodi,

Gen3

“The serpent spoke to the woman…

When the woman saw that the fruit was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took from it’s fruit and ate; and she gave some to her husband with her, and he ate.”

but according to your bible

“The serpent on the garden,…[Read more]

Hi Jodi,

You have an impressive knowledge of the scriptural words but you link them together using personal interpretation

and your own vivid imagination.

The results are your own personal creation.

Hi Jodi,

You say the power of death is in the carnal minds of men.

Really?

You certainly demonstrate the imagination you speak of.

Hi Jodi,

You think that the spirit within man is the body of sin.

A spirit is a body?

Is it written or did you make it up?

If you are speaking of the human spirit from the breath of God that gives him life you are deceived.

God’s creation is very good and His breath is of Him and is pure.

But if you think man is a vessel for a brood o…[Read more]

Hi Jodi,

You say

“..man’s carnal nature was cursed through the reality of death creating great enmity between the spirit in man and God”

Really?

And who cursed man’s nature and when did this happen?

Mystical gobbledegook.
