Our default is the spirit (not the flesh)!

It's code for something man! If we fast and pray for a really long time.... it might become more clear, or not. -
Our default is the spirit (not the flesh)!
Big Boy Stan Murf replied to Vine Abider's topic in General Discussion
And for those living in sin, they are refusing to allow the Holy Spirit to live in them... therefore they are back under condemnation because Romans 8 says God has condemned sin in the flesh. Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. It's no surprise that many newer translations leave the second part of Romans 8:1 out... "who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Walking after the flesh = condemnation because that's living in sin. Being led by the Holy Spirit = life because that is following God's Word as Jesus said the Holy Spirit leads us in to all Truth and Jesus said God's Word is Truth T^he simple solution is admit it and quit is, but some always want to argue for Christians to still be saved if they are living in sin which is not biblical and this teaching is a stumbling block to Christians to think they can continue in sin and it's all good up in the hood when it certainly is not! -
The closest thing I've heard that was what some claimed to be the US was some verse that talked about and eagle coming off the back or out of a lion (I don't know the scripture) But, I've heard a few times that the lion is supposed to represent Great Britain and since the US broke away from Great Britain and the eagle is an icon of the US, that is supposed to mean the eagle is representing the US. I don't recall hearing what scripture says ever happening to the eagle.

There's al;so a verse in Hebrews saying us saved gentiles should not be high minded and boost against the Jews because we can be cut off.
-
Yes, spiritually... this does not mean the Jews are not still God's chosen people according to the flesh or that He has given up on them or disowned them We see in Revelation where the Lord gives jezabel time to repent... He's doing the same with the Jews And only a remnant of those who got born again will survive as many fall away in the end times and we know once saved always saved is false doctrine. There are many parallels of NT believers falling away just like the Jews fell away.

Yep, and the same spiritual wickedness in high places goes to church ever Sunday to mess with people's minds... and they are held in high esteem at most seminaries and bible colleges. It's easy to spot the work of spiritual wickedness in high places... anytime someone is claiming what God said in His Word is not true or is otherwise trying to muddy the waters and explain it away, you know they are being influenced in their understanding by spiritual wickedness in high places We see the way 'ol slewfoot operates in the garden when the Lord said if you eat of that tree you shall surely die... and the devil comes along and says no you won't surely die. Fast forward to modern times and Romans 8:13 says "if ye live after the flesh (sin), ye shall die".... and the vast majority of preachers say, no you won't die if you sin. This is speaking of sin causing separation from God which is spiritual death which is what happened to Adam and Eve when they sinned (they did not die physically after they sinned)... and today we have preachers saying we can sin and not be separated from the Lord, and so the falling away is in full swing!

in Rev. 17:16 in my Bible, it doesn't say the United States... so you are assuming something scripture does not actually say which means this is just your opinion that cannot be backed up by scripture, You are assuming something scripture does not actually say which means this is just your opinion that cannot be backed up by scripture, It's the global elite that have been collectively planning this for at least a couple hundred years. It's been said that satan has been wanting to restore one world government since the fall of the original babylon so he's been trying to get that back all this time

OK, so you believe God lied to Abraham since in your view He has forsaken His promise to Abraham to bless his descendants? God cannot forsake His own Word since He said the gifts and callings of God are without repentance. If God ever forsakes His own Word that makes Him a liar which would make Him subservient to satan the father of lies. God took care of that by saying "It's impossible for God to lie" (Hebrews 6:18) so this cannot never happen. No one is saying the Lord approves of their rebellion, but He is still in fact seeking the hearts of the Jewish people to get them to return unto Him which thy will do in the end when all of Israel is saved. (Romans 11:26-27) They are still God's people according to the flesh which is different than gentiles being God's people spiritually in the Body of Christ so God did not actually replace the Jews with the Christians as these are 2 different people groups
-
Seems odd that the Lord wouldn't bring all His people together for this massive historic event...
-
Well you know the good thing about being an older guy is... the list of what NOT to do is really long now and we're less likely to make mistakes we made when we were younger!
-
Not necessarily unless it can be proven they are descendants of Abraham. It is claim that thru DNA testing one can know if they are Jewish or not. Does that mean a bunch of crackers are going to move there and claim they have replaced the Jews as God's chosen people?
-
Those that are Jews according to the flesh... are returning to Israel This of course does not mean they are right with the Lord or following Jesus But, more and more Jews are coming to accept Jesus as their Lord, now more than ever before.
-
OK, so here's a good topic we can all argue over... er, I mean discuss! WHERE does the Marriage Supper of the Lamb take place? On earth, or in Heaven?
-
Someone said, "these are the last days!" Someone else comes along and says "how do you know these are the last days?" The first guy says "these are YOUR last days either way!" I always thought that was kinda funny, and a good way to reply to someone who does not think we are living in the last days since all of us are getting closer to leaving Club Earth with each passing day!
-
Yep. it would probably be good to start one's morning off with talking to the Lord about consecrating our selves unto Him anew and receiving / inviting the Spirit of Truth to inhabit all aspects of our lives today! I heard someone say once that the Holy Spirit is a gentleman and He doesn't just automatically lead and guide us... we need to yield to Him to do so since the Lord is not forcing His way in to anybody's life.
-
There is evidence in scripture where people got filled with the Spirit... then later on they got filled again.

I was focusing on the part that said he was making false allegations. Most churches are are not teaching the whole counsel of God which leads to false doctrine whether they are charismatic churches or otherwise and when that's the case then it's not a false accusation. We need to be mindful that if a church or ministry is in fact teaching false doctrine, then other believes should be warned and given a heads up since that's the right thing to do as we don't want to see anybody get caught up in false doctrine. It's what Love would do. I spent most of my Christian life in charismatic churches and it's true in many cases that they end up chasing the gifts rather than the Giff Giver which is the Lord. While it's true the Lord still does miracles, when people are just in it for what the Lord can do for them, they are in false doctrine land.

Only Those Who Pass Through GT are Resurrected or Gathered.

All you got is assumptions Well, opinions are like belly buttons... everyone has one and some have erroneous ones! Thanks for sharing! -
No, those that turn away from the Lord are actually no longer saved. If they have left their first love that means something else is more important in their lives than Jesus, making them no longer saved. The Word of God does not teach one can live in sin and still be in right standing with Him which is what most churches and ministries are teaching these days. When one turns away from the Lord and sins, they must forsake their sin and confess their sin to the Lord in order to be right with the Lord once again. Proverbs 28:13 He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

When these folks teach things that are not biblical, it's no longer false allegations. There are numerous warnings in scripture telling us false teachers will be among us, so we need to heed these warnings, beware, and compare what is taught with scripture whether they want people to study for themselves or not.The biggest red flag is when any church or preachers says you can just take their word for it, it's all good. No, we need to be like the bereans who searched the scriptures to see if what Paul was teaching was true... and Paul had not problem with that and even commended them for it! 1 Timothy 4:1,2 Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron ("depart from the faith" is not referring to sinners in the world who never came to faith in the first place) 1 Timothy 6:3-5 (see Luke 11:23 and 2 Peter 3:2) If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness (holiness); (Doctrine of Christ, aka Doctrine of the Apostles) He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof comes envy, strife, railings, evil thoughts… Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 2 Timothy 4:3,4 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine (teaching); but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 2 Peter 2:1-3 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying (contradicting, Not agreeing with) the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness (idolatry) shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingers not, and their damnation slumbers not. Jude 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness (no self control, living after the flesh), and denying (contradicting, opposing Jesus’ teachings) the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. (referring to false teachers and false brethren - see Matthew 13:24-30) (Deny = Strong's G0720… to contradict, disavow, reject, deny, refuse - and Strong's G4483… the idea of pouring forth, to utter, speak of or say, command) Jude 1:17-21 Remember the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These are those who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. But you, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. ("those who separate themselves" is not referring to sinners in the world who were never joined unto the Lord in the first place) Acts 20:27-30 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That you be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition. Matthew 24:3-13 What shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ (including saying “I am anointed”); and shall deceive many. And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation (ethnic group vs ethnic group), and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in many different places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. (See 1 John 5:3 AND 2 John 1:6) But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Glad to hear things went well! A friend of mine's uncle got a new kid knee I can't imagine where they got the kid knee from!

Last time all this stuff got started, they told me all I needed to go shopping was a mask and some gloves. But, when I got down there I felt kinda foolish because everyone else had clothes on!

They are according to the flesh... none of us are God's people if we turn away from Him and quit living for the Lord. The Lord still wants them to be saved and has defended them miraculously since becoming a nation again will defend them again. The Lord says all Israel will be saved (Romans 11:26-27) Sounds like catholicism, calvinism, luthernism (reformed theology) and gnosticism In other words, all the modern denominations teach false doctrine and yes, I agree with that as this has been what the Lord has taught me in the going on 40 years I've been a believer.
-
He's actually saying that... I saw a bunch of this guy's posts in another thread and he thinks Israel is the best and the Israeli government will force most people in the world to take the mark of the beast. He's a freaky fellow with freaky ideas from the Book of Left Field!

It's looking like the first Trump will be the last Trump!
