To me repentance is a turning away remorse for sin and when we're saved we are INSTANTLY justified...however sanctification is the lifetime process of getting 'rid' os habit sins(i say habit as were no longer under bondage)and becoming more christ like with holiness...it was a good post wisdom but i did feel on reading it that even though a person repents if they slip up(and believe me i do)then maybe they're not truly saved....to me that is not how i understand salvation...for example:- person a repents and but slips up on occasions and shows the fruit of the spirit to me that is someone who is saved person b claims salvation yet does nothing to obey the word of GOd...to me thats someone trying to us grace as an excuse and may well not be truly saved just my 2 pence on the matter

scientific atheist and fathless....you may not believe in God....but be sure he believes in you

Nick...re-read my post....its completly facetious...i am a born again christian...and pray to the father y his son....not man made inanimate objects syble...read the opening post...it specifically says the rosery saves..and that your to pray to it to get marys attention..... mary wasnt the one who shed blood for our sins...Jesus alone did it

What i want to know is....how can ANY adult with an ounce of a brain.....think that by praying TO AN INANIMATE OBJECT will achieve....???would you pray to your desk????your filing cabnets??????your picture postcards????no...i hear you say....they why to beads?????they are inanimate objects none livingBTW the Bible says there is only ONE mediator between God and man...our Lord Jesus Christ.....either that or the bible lies...which...if we have to pray to beads thent he bibles wrong and i'll throw it...if the bibles right...they why pray to beads????

IMHO...thats over reacting although i see his point...however this is worded in a way that worriesme....are those who are sbc affiliated going to be kicked out of church etc if they dont compliy????and what about those who can't afford a private christian ed school???is he going to pay out of his own pocket for the thousands that cant????(just being practical here)and for those who cannot meet the homeschool requirements...what are they meant to do????

In your case i would say there is a differance between forgiving someone 70x7 and all that...with being treated like a door mat...give it to God...if he wants you out he will make way for you to go...he might however not want you out.....i didn't have anything when i left my hubby except the clothes on my back and my special needs boys...at that time i also only had a few pounds in lose change and a fractured skull.....18 months on...i have everything a familiy could wish for....and more...God provided...it was hard...dont get me wrong...but it was the right disicion

aaahhh...i think i see where your comming from...we had someone on another of my forums who said similar things about...oh rats i forgot the name it was to do with a secret aganda the the world leaders and bankers have or something of that nature... ...i this is spiritual warfare...but as for these secret aganda etc...i dont know and am not willing to specualte...but i'm gld you understood what i was saying about bush being because God wanted him in the posistion...along with Y.O.D i feel i'm now being understood very soon the restrainer will be removedIMHO....and my heart aches for those left behind living then(i'm pre-trib...but thats for a differant thread) kitkat.....well said....being relativly new...i was holding back on those very things as i wasn't sure if i could post them or not

actually weapon were found...the un inspectors(my cousin was one of them) saw them...they were then hurried out with 24 hours notice or get shot...this was the first war there so cast your minds back....the person who told the un weapons inspecters about these was saddams brother in law...which is why within the week he had his brother in law shot.. more weapon were found a few days ago

Yod...thank you... river...this freedom your crying about ...you wouldn't have if bush had done nothing and bin laden gained control over the states...it doesn't take a genious to work that out the other one....you seem more resonable to talke to than river and your points are comming across that thsi is more a spiritual war...is that correct??in which case i can agree...God put bush in the postion he is in...for a reason..he has his plan...therefore what bush did is part of Gods plan

sam...i can agree with your post that this could have been prevented....the same as pearl harbour.....but my main point which i do not think is comming across to well is..... ....because it wasn't prevented...and this did happen...would you have prefered to sit back and do nothing??/like the french did in ww2...look what happened there.

Your right...i do not live in your country.....but you know...while your running down your presidents discision on this....your also decrying what your own military personal have done for you....can you not see the insult you are giving them????go and take a look at the next service personells body bag...and say to his familiy his wife and child...i would sooner be over run by the taliban than free...because thats what your saying on this board... I am not a 'bush right winged supporter' i very rarely venture into politics...yes he was remiss in not protecting the country from this atrocias act...and hes paying for it or will at the election....does your dislike of his inafficancy affect good comman sense????? If your country had not retaliated....imagine the senerio...what osama was going to shake your hand ...not bush went about it wrong...that much is agreed....but he rectified his mistake by finally taking charge and NOT listening to his advisers he also set a country free from tyranny...that alone is to be applauded tell you what...if you dislike bush so much and prefer to live in a tyrinnical country...then go ahead...you'll soon change your mind...thats if they haven't beheaded you for looking in the wrong direction

you left out one bit...a discerning differance...which hitlar had no of neither did bin laden....its called integrity...ok i put this to you...had your country not retaliated to the mass slaughter your civilians suffered....what do you think would have happened????? The next attack would have been sooner then the next...and before you nknew it your country would have been overriden by the taliban.....what would happen to chrsitains.....do you think they would have been welcomed with open arms.....not...they would have been executed....the same as they were over there...what do you prefer....freedom or tryanny??? tell you what...apologise to the Japs for retaliating against pearl harbour ...they did the same thing bin laden and co did

actually your country attacked them because by anihihlating over 3000 innocent lives for no just cause....they made what is know in military circles ....as statement of intent...the same as hitler did in ww2

pm dr luke or the admin....they are the only ones who can change it

heres the chair folks i bought it from the irs...dead cheap to its there ....so i exist (this appeals to my humour) but then so does this:-

Before you all start paraphrasing descartes...i can go one better...i know i exist because:- when in labour i have excruciating pain...the pain is real therefore exist...i therefore exist

As I understand it....people didn't know about it until God gave the command to moses...so they couldn't logically honour a day that they new nothing about but i reserve the right to be completely and utterly wrong

Now thats what i call a sermon is it ok for me to print this so i can come back to it when doubt etc sets in...this is a brilliant word of encoragment...thank you

Ask him what church he goes to...then speak with the pastor

absolutly brilliant posts one of the best i've seen in any forum...at it came just at the right time for me...one thing above all else as christians God is always in control and we should rest in him

Who says you have to go to collage to get a Job????? you could always get a low paid job and work your way up to managment or join the military(at least you wont be bored enough to have time to ponder on wether you like it or not)

Thanks for the link..thats cool

That was a brilliant read...and a good reminder..thank you

IMHO...when it comes to nuber crunching....you can make nubers say anything you want

your poor mother :x: hi welcome
