I propose that the following is the plain reading of Romans 6 re sinning. Ro 6:1-2 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? iow no. Don't “ continue in sin ”. Ro 6:4 ... we ... should...

That's true. People forget the same group who did September 11 in the US did October 7 in Israel. Houthi, Hamas, Al Qaeda, ISIS, the Taliban, they're all cut outta the same cloth, just different patches, it's all Islamism; they're Islamists. They want to spread their form of government which...

How do you know that? This is interesting. (And @Right Divider since you 'liked' JR's post why don't you answer too. How do you know that Eastern Orthodox are far closer to Biblically grounded than Roman Catholic?)

I believe in One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. The Eastern Orthodox fall down on the first and third, "marks of the Church". As you say, they are frequently “ nationalistic, divided by national boundaries ”. That's not "Catholic", which means universal and global, a Church without...

I don't think that either. He could be a powerful influencer and persuader, he has great talent.

You got him there!

Agreed. Seriously though, if you hold that our own government either did this or was a party to this, you're letting off the hook the real criminal, which is Islamism. 'Islamism' is the modern word for ancient, expansionist and imperialist (and butchers) Islam. There is a variety of Islam in...

I don't engage in doublespeak. You're going to have to. You're accusing me of something and now conveniently won't explain the charges, and won't provide evidence either. "Trust me bro." Yeah no. I was talking out of both sides of my mouth? I doubt that. We disagree about the papacy? I...

I'll read the rest of your post later.

Yes, it is variable. How? Is it a cognitive exercise, in learning and meditating on the Scripture and through prayer? Do believers come to a greater appreciation of their sin, in time? And does feeling bad about their sin mean that they sin progressively less in time? Yes. I don't find...

Well it's not false, it's Jesus's Church so.

I have receipts Clete. Yours is an untenable position. I'm just stating history. This is no way to start if you disagree with me. This is basically all I'm saying. It's just direct inference. It follows both rationally and historically. I made bold the things I know for certain are...

I insist you hold me to my own standard. How else can I know, if I am deceived, that my standard is the wrong standard? How else can I learn? if I'm not held to my own standard? and get a taste of my own medicine?

I said maybe.

If you charge me with a crime, I have a right to understand the charges. And I also have a right that my accusers aren't themselves guilty of what they're charging me with.

Hey @Right Divider thanks for 'liking' my post with your 'lol'. If you want to engage I'm sure you could. Tell me what you think legalism means so that I can defend myself against the charge you all are making against me. I have a right.

You found that funny RD (@Right Divider)? did you? with your little 'lol' there? How about you wade in to the discussion instead of just taking pot shots from the sidelines? Be a man.

This is all vague posting. Define your term legalism, or stop using it. This all started because I insinuated that you aren't allowed to commit adultery. I'm sure every single one of you (and @Right Divider too, who hasn't directly participated in the vague posting nonetheless 'likes' all you...

(y) There you have it. That's just one of the dozens, if not hundreds, if not tens of thousands of claims and promises made by Democratic party candidates during an election. President Trump is just like, "Oh, you Democrats think you can quietly bribe your way into office. Here I'll do you...
