    The Sinless Human

    The Lord Jesus was fully human physically but not spiritually, that is, He had the nature of our body but not the nature of our soul (the soul being the reasoning entity of our spirit). The nature of a human soul is sinful, but the nature of Christ’s soul was sinless! Thus only Christians have...

    Infinite, Eternal Kingdom

    “That I may know Him” (Phl 3:10). The more the child of God knows the Father and the Son, the more he longs to know. He comes to his Father to find fresh delight, and to be filled anew with Joy. “That your joy may be full” (Jhn 16:24; 1Jo 1:4) is a word for eternity as well as for time. Here our...

    Which World, Christian?

    Wisdom calls for differentiating between morality (the physical) and godliness (the spiritual); the former pertains to the horizontal relationship between mankind; and the latter, the vertical relationship between God and mankind! Of those regenerate there are two classes; those who are...

    I agree and thanks for your instructional comment!

    Be Encouraged

    Does it at times seem you’re missing something? Often, it’s the desires after “the old man” to which we were so accustomed to following that is missing, which can produce an uneasiness due to the lack of a familiar sensuality. Though all that the sin nature performs is impure, it yet moved us...

    Triune Tribulation

    I agree, because He uses all for the good of those who love Him (Ro 8:28). Wishing you well in Christ!

    Triune Tribulation

    All that occurs in Christians lives is not only foreknown and allowed by God but is also prearranged for their "good" (Ro 8:28). This enables them, by His grace (2Co 12:9), to accept whatever transpires with the encouragement of knowing how secure they are.

    Triune Tribulation

    Myself, I like the word "allow" for "suffer" because it gives the sense that it's your will to accept in Christ all that transpires, knowing it's for your "good."

    Triune Tribulation

    There are three types of tribulation or dealings of the Father in the way of discipline in the wilderness for us. First, tribulation in which we may glory; for instance, suffering for Christ in this evil world (considered evil due to most will remain in unbelief – Matt 7:13, 14—NC). This is...

    Love Union

    Is pride, even unknowingly, delaying our growth in Christ’s image (Eph 4:15)? If so, it’s only because we may not be as open as we should to the Spirit’s teaching (1Co 2:13). Of course pride for all believers, in some degree or another—regardless of how humble—is always effecting us in what we...

    A Said-faith

    Thanks for the reply! I agree, it's not only something that a believer should not want to do but cannot do, because only God knows for certain another's heart. We can know for ourselves about ourselves via God's Spirit (Ro 8:16). When Jesus declared that "the tree is known by his fruit," the...

    A Said-faith

    Hi Brother, always nice to see you and thanks for the chime-in! Like the "make-believers" phrase.

    A Said-faith

    Hi, and thanks for the reply! It's my understanding that hypocrites can only appear to be in the faith and are eventually "found out" (Num 32:23). I believe Heb 10:26 is a good example of apostacy, because I believe it identifies Gnosticism, which is the believe that just knowing what salvation...

    A Said-faith

    I believe it’s not commonly understood that an “apostate” is one who only professes to be in the faith but in truth has yet to be saved, i.e. reborn. Of all who profess to “confess Jesus is Lord” (Ro 10:9), there will always be some (“a little leaven”) who only “honor Me with their lips...

    Partakers of His Sufferings and Glory

    It's my belief that one reborn cannot live the Life of Christ, anymore that one living another's life. He is living His own Life in and through us (Col 3:4) by His Holy Spirit (Jhn 14:26), using His written Word (1Co 2:13). Not trying to oppose you personally, but it appears we have the same...

    Partakers of His Sufferings and Glory

    Hi, and appreciate your reply and comments! I suppose I see your point and how it could seem self-centered, but the articles I share are spiritual-growth centered which has to do with self, and may seem as you suspect. Growth is for the believer and is all that can be done post rebirth, because...

    Partakers of His Sufferings and Glory

    It’s just the “old man” (Adamic-sin nature), so don’t let it trouble you (Jn 14:1, 27; Phl 4:6)! Yes, if at times you seem to be bothered, even in a somewhat significant degree and it appears that you are uncertain as to the direct cause of it, just remember that it can always be traced back to...

    Gracious Growth Exercise

    After being reborn, believers have only to continue to grow in the strength of their faith—which is manifested in their works—for salvation does not admit in degrees. Thus all saints are saved at the one and same position of redemption, but “walk” at varying levels of discernment, understanding...

    The Galatian Suppositions

    Paul was admonishing the Galatian Churches by informing them that the admixture of the Law with the Gospel of Christ was an attempt by the false teachers to “pervert” the Gospel of Christ (1:7), and nowhere in this Epistle does there exist any conclusions that suggests the Galatian Christians...

    Tribulations’ School

    I usually only discuss Christian spiritual growth doctrine within the NT. In my opinion not enough professing Christianity understand the Law sufficiently enough to discuss it.
