Hi KW,

Do you doubt that the Spirit abides in the written Word?

Yet you tell us it is spiritual?

Hi T8,

Faith is the essential starting point.

Then faith in the commands and obedience to them.

Why do you call me Lord, Lord and not do as I say?

Hi t8,

Yes they drank of the Spirit.

The Spirit of Christ.

Your focus is always on the man.

dig deeper

Hi KW,

He was given the fullness of the Spirit.

Trying to divide the Spirit into various anointing is folly.

Hi ED,

Yes my quote was a little inaccurate sorry.

Understanding is a blessing but faith is a gift.

Hi Ed,

“seek ye first the kingdom and all these things will be added to you.”

Hi ED,

If you want to understand God you are interested in chasing the wind.

Knowing Him and being known by Him are far more valuable.

Hi KW,

You rationalise in an attempt to give credence to your theories.

You deny truth in your attempts to justify your dogmas.

God did not offer a law that was doomed to failure.

But it could not bring men to perfection.

The job of sanctification is that of the Spirit

Hi Ed,

Why would you want to remove the truth?

Jesus Christ is the Son of God, by his anointing at the Jordan, and heir to the vineyard.

Mt 3.17 Lk 3.22,

Rom 1.4

Hi t8,

Thy word is truth.

But men have many devious ways of denying it.

It is easy to rationalise and justify human doctrines and the word does not resist such behaviours.

But that does not mean that the logical meanings are always correct.

The word is spiritual and logic might not apply.

Hi KW,

By grace we are saved.

The same with Jesus of Nazareth.

He found grace, and favour with his God.

Hi KW,

Jesus the man obeyed the law to the satisfaction of God.

But not well enough to satisfy your theories.

Hi KW,

From the law comes the knowledge of sin.

Rom3.20

Surely a godfearing man can avoid sin by this knowledge?

Hi KW,

You are a few questions behind.

Was the law designed to be ineffectual?

Hi KW.

The law is summed up as

You shall love your neighbour as yourself.

Is that impossible for men without being anointed from above?

Why was the law given?

Hi KW,

Are you saying that obedience to the law is a fruit of the Spirit?

Hi KW,

Another series of dogmatic statements with no proofs offered.

Are you saying it was impossible for men to obey the law?

Hi KW,

It is not a mere technicality when Christ is written when it is the Father being spoken about.

Fear God.

Hi KW,

Do you believe that no man can obey the law unless they are anointed?

Hi KW,

Yes we know no man can attain to the righteousness of God.

God does not expect men to so he gave them the law.

Jesus fully obeyed the law and never sinned.

It was enough for God but not for you?
