View Profile History	Everyone Walks by Faith, but Faith in What? Posted : 16 Apr, 2011 01:20 PM Philippians chapter 2:verses 5-7: Let this mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus who being in the form of God( meaning that Jesus was God Himself in the flesh) thought it not robbery to be equal to God. But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of man. This meaning that although Jesus was God, He laid down His heavenly riches and nature as God, and took on man's earthly bodily form as not to be equal with God and continued His journey on earth in the form of man, becoming a servant and came to us in the form of man, yet without sin. 2sparrow wrotes: Everyone Walks by Faith, but Faith is What? "FAITH is the substance(the ingredients that puts our beliefs into action) of things hoped for, the evidence (proof of God) of/in things not seen... for without FAITH it is impossible to please God. Hebrews chapter 11...it is impossible to please God without FAITH, because faith is trust we have in God to grant us what He promised in salvation, which is the HOPE of our eternal glory. The evidence (is knowing that God will keep His promise if we obey His word, because He is not a man that He should lie. We've seen His works, but we yet have not seen His eternal glory, that is our final hope and the Faith of our trust and beliefs.. Post Reply

View Profile History	Everyone Walks by Faith, but Faith in What? Posted : 16 Apr, 2011 01:45 PM LSU, why not you explain the answer? You can't explain the scriptue passage I gave to you in Romans chpater 8: verses 28-30, so whose report should we believe your or God's? So since you ahve all the answers entlightened we who are without knowledge into God's word, open our understanding... help our unbelief! Please! oooops, this would mean explainign the passages would it? At least this is how Jesus and Paul and the apostle did it, when they came into people who did not understand God's word, they EXPLAINED the scritpures to them and the Bible tells us the people's understanding was open into what God was saying... c'mon with it and explain for us who are without...

Some here seem to be stuck on the english translation even though they know there is no perfect english translation. Post Reply

View Profile History	Everyone Walks by Faith, but Faith in What? Posted : 16 Apr, 2011 02:04 PM Wait so trying to understand what is meant in the original text is approaching God carnally? That's a new one on me. Are you saying that in fact you do not know if the verse ending should be there or not? Post Reply
