SO CAN NO FOUNTAIN BOTH YIELD SALT WATER AND FRESH
Posted : 3 Nov, 2020 01:27 AM
We are told clearly by God how our religion is vain, if we are incapable of bridling our tongue.
Our tongue and the words we do not guard and speak freely defiles our whole body, so that it is not cleansed o forgiven of our sins of the past.
James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
James 3:6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
James 3:12 Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? SO CAN NO FOUNTAIN BOTH YIELD SALT WATER AND FRESH.
Jesus makes it clear here again, against all the deceivers who insist they are a work in progress. The tree either is good immediately, or the tree is evil immediately. Whenever that evil tree brings its fruit, it is evil always, and whenever the good tree brings forth any fruit, it can only be good fruit.
The vipers cannot speak truth, they are condemned already.
Their deeds are only evil.
Every one who does any evil hates the light, their evil deeds never were corrected.
If someone did truth, to have the work of God, they do no evil..
Matthew 12:33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 FOR EVERY ONE THAT DOETH EVIL HATETH THE LIGHT, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 BUT HE THAT DOETH TRUTH COMETH TO THE LIGHT, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
What a man speaks defiles him, his evil thoughts defile him, how much more defiled when they do the evil deed also, to thieve, bear false witness to fornicate to covet, and blaspheme the Lords Holy name saying God pardons them and there is no power given by God to be Holy and to not do evil sometimes ?
Beware of the false prophets who are revealed by Christ, men do not gather thorns, the thorns and briars are satans fruit, satans sins and his children of the flesh follow the devils evil ( they cannot do both good and evil which they confess they can only do) that which bears thorns is rejected of course, as only what brings forth good for God is correct for His use..
Romans 9:8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
Mark 7:20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
Matthew 15:18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. DO MEN GATHER GRAPES OF THORNS, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Hebrews 6:7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, AND BRINGETH FORTH HERBS MEET FOR THEM BY WHOM IT IS DRESSED, receiveth blessing from God:
8 BUT THAT WHICH BEARETH THORNS AND BRIARS IS REJECTED, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
What verses in this entire bible show people are a mixture of righteousness and of sin/evil ? There is not a singular verse, it is the real heresy therefore or they might show one verse ever?
He that does good is of God, this is God, and the ones who do evil have seen the devil as their god, which is why they speak no truth, no word of God shows unholiness as Holy ..
3 John 1:11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
So the man of God purges himself from the evil, to be a vessel to God in honour, Malachi 1:10-13, which is sanctified( the deceivers also claim nobody can be sanctified this side of salvation)
Back on the word of truth however, we see no thieves or covetous or revilers inherit the Kingdom of God, and UNLESS WASHED AND SANCTIFIED, THEY ARE NOT FORGIVEN OF PAST SINS NOR ARE PREPARED UNTO EVERY GOOD WORK IN THE LORD WITH NO PURE HEART WHICH THEY CANT EVEN CONFESS IS THE WORD OF THE LORD
ALL THEY OFFER IS FOOLISH UNLEARNED QUESTIONS OF STRIFE
THEY CONFESS THEY STRUGGLE BUT GODS WORD REVEALS THEM AS TAKEN CAPTIVE BY THE DEVIL AT HIS WILL AND CANNOT READ HOW GOD GIVES REPENTANCE AND THEY CANNOT REPENT WITHOUT BEING GIVEN THAT ACKNOWLEDGING OF THE TRUTH
1 Corinthians 6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
2 Timothy 2:21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
THE FAITH OF GODS ELECT IS THE ACKNOWLEDGING OF THE TRUTH, THAT IS GODLINESS
WHEN THEY OPPOSE THE DOCTRINE OF GODLINESS, THEY ARE REVEALED BY GODS WORD AS BEING PROUD AND KNOWING NOTHING WHEN THEY QUESTION STRIFES OF WORDS AGAINST THE WHOLESOME WORDS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST..
Titus 1:1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;
1 Timothy 6:3 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;
4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
GOD HAS GIVEN US ALL THINGS THAT BRING US GODLINESS, TO BE PARTAKER OF HIS HOLY DIVINE NATURE, TO ESCAPE THE CORRUPTION THROUGH WHAT THE DECEIVERS CANT STOP LUSTING FOR
2 Peter 1:3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
CAN A DECEIVER READ AT ALL TO KNOW WHAT THE DIVINE NATURE IS?
BEING BORN OF GOD IS NOT CONTINUING TO STRUGGLE WITH EVIL AND STILL EMBRACING EVIL, IT IS TO OURIFY OURSELVES EVEN AS HE IS PURE, THEIR IDEA OF PURE, IS PURE CORRUPTION..,
1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

romans 7?
newness in the Spirit, not oldness of the letter, fruit unto death are sins, they are the wages of sin, it's outcome...
Romans 7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are BECOME DEAD TO THE LAW BY THE BODY OF CHRIST; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we SHOULD BRING FORTH FRUIT UNTO GOD.
5 FOR WHEN WE WERE IN THE FLESH, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
6 BUT NOW WE ARE DELIVERED FROM THE LAW THAT BEING DEAD WHEREIN WE WERE HELD; that we should SERVE IN NEWNESS OF SPIRIT, and not in the oldness of the letter.
now;pay attention moonlight and waiting..
ARE YOU CARNAL ?
APOSTLE PAUL IS NOT CARNAL Paul was carnal then SERVES IN NEWNESS OF SPIRIT...
Romans 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I AM CARNAL, SOLD UNDER SIN.
1 Corinthians 3:3 FOR YE ARE YET CARNAL: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, ARE YE NOT CARNAL, AND WALK AS MEN?
1 Corinthians 6:20 FOR YE ARE BOUGHT WITH A PRICE: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
2 Corinthians 10:4 (FOR THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
Romans 8:6 FOR TO BE CARNALLY MINDED IS DEATH; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Romans 7:15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; BUT HOW TO PERFORM THAT WHICH IS GOOD I FIND NOT.
Israel had the problem not finding how to perform the good...
Matthew 5:33 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but SHALT PERFORM UNTO THE LORD THINE OATHS:
Psalm 119:106 I have sworn, and I WILL PERFORM IT, THAT I WILL KEEP THY RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENTS.
NOW HERE IS HOW TO PERFORM:
Romans 8:3 FOR WHAT THE LAW COULD NOT DO, IN THAT IT WAS WEAK THROUGH THE FLESH, GOD sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, CONDEMNED SIN IN THE FLESH:
4 THAT THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE LAW MIGHT BE FULFILLED IN US, who WALK NOT AFTER THE FLESH, BUT AFTER THE SPIRIT.
Galatians 5:16 This I say then, WALK AFTER THE SPIRIT, AND YE SHALL NOT FULFIL THE LUST OF THE FLESH.
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and THESE ARE CONTRARY THE ONE TO THE OTHER, SO THAT YE CANNOT DO THE THINGS THAT YE WOULD.
18 But IF YE ARE LED OF THE SPIRIT, YE ARE NOT UNDER THE LAW. ( THE WEAKNESS OF THE LAW)
Romans 7:19 FOR THE GOOD THAT I WOULD I DO NOT: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21 I FIND THEN A LAW, THAT, WHEN I WOULD DO GOOD, EVIL IS PRESENT WITH ME.
Romans 7:22 For I (Israel carnal unspiritual man) DELIGHT IN THE LAW OF GOD after the inward man:
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and BRINGING ME INTO CAPTIVITY TO THE LAW OF SIN which is in my members.
2 Corinthians 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and BRINGING INTO CAPTIVITY EVERY THOUGHT TO THE OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST;
Isaiah 58:1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and SHEW MY PEOPLE THEIR TRANSGRESSION, AND THE HOUSE OF JACOB THEIR SINS.
2 YET THEY SEEK ME DAILY, AND DELIGHT TO KNOW MY WAYS, AS a nation that did righteousness, AND FORSOOK not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; THEY TAKE DELIGHT IN APPROACHING TO GOD.
Romans 7:24 O wretched man that I am! WHO SHALL DELIVER ME FROM THE BODY OF THIS DEATH?
Romans 7:6 BUT NOW WE ARE DELIVERED FROM THE LAW, that BEING DEAD WHEREIN WE WERE; that we should SERVE IN NEWNESS OF SPIRIT, and not in the oldness of the letter.
Romans 8:21 BECAUSE THE CREATURE ITSELF SHALL BE DELIVERED FROM THE BONDAGE OF CORRUPTION INTO THE GLORIOUS LIBERTY of the children of God.
Colossians 1:13 WHO HATH DELIVERED US FROM THE POWER OF DARKNESS, AND HATH TRANSLATED US INTO THE KINGDOM OF HIS DEAR SON:
John 8:34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, WHOSOEVER COMMITETH SIN IS THE SERVANT OF SIN.
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 IF THE SON THEREFORE SHALL MAKE YOU FREE, YE SHALL BE FREE INDEED.
IF ANYONE HERE WANTS TO SHOW HOW ANY WORD AT ALL IS IN FALSE DOCTRINE, SHOW HOW GODS WORD HERE SPEAKS WRONG, OR SHOW YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING OF ROMANS 7 , AND HOW MY UNDERSTANDING IS WRONG ON ROMANS 7 AND WHAT COMPLIMENTS THE WORDS. OR YOU WISH TO IGNORE UNTIL IT GOES AWAY OR ATTEMPT TO CHANGE THE FOCUS. I KNOW NOBODY CAN SPEAK ABOUT ROMANS 7 WHILE THE LIGHT SHINES AGAINST THOSE WHO TRY TO MAKE CHRIST INTO THE MINISTER OF SIN TO EXCUSE THEMSELVES TO GO ON DOING EVIL AGAINST THEIR NEIGHBOR

There is a difference between slipping up every now and then, and sinning habitually. Christians will do the first, but not the second. One way that you can tell the difference is how they act when they are confronted. A Christian will accept the correction and repent. A non-christian will not.

countryivy, does love work ill to you, or it fulfills instead ?
if you dont want to answer, thats fine with me, but if you think you can, try being precise for a moment:
Romans 13:8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
1 Corinthians 13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

context, or everybody must reduce Gods word to one verse or their own wished for private opinion instead?
try a little more if you dont mind too much everyone:
1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
this is the next verse on the next page below...
1 John 2: 1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
so we know we sin, we are cleansed of sin when we confess them and repent.
Now we need to know Him ?
Do we know Him if we sin and break HIs commandments to not sin ? No these next verses explained how if we say we know Him and do not keep His commandments we are still lying.
the truth needs to be in us is testified, we are told Gods love needs to be perfected in us, if we say we abide in Christ, we then walk as He walked, or you can only say no ?
look the next verses ?
1 John 2:9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.
12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
our sins are forgiven for His sake.
if we hate our brother, we do sins against them, or we do righteousness for them ?
loving our brother is us abiding in the light, with no stumbling in the works of darkness..Romans 13:12
The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
continue the verses?
we overcome the wicked ones works..
1 John 2:13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.
those works are all thats in the world lust and sin:
1 John 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
continue the next verses ?
who is a liar but the ones who deny the Son ?
1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
this is how they deny Him, as they confess Lord Lord but work iniquity:
Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
is context hated on this forum and in this whole world, even though everybody complains they never get context from someone else ?

repentance is Gods gift, nobody can know the things of God but God.
2 Timothy 2:25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
Psalm 65:4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.
1 Timothy 6:16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
Matthew 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
John 6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

Heresy perfectionism panhandler, Adam teaches us about his own “performance“ of “righteous“ acts:
QUOTE THE FALSE ADAM: “NOW HERE IS HOW TO PERFORM:
Romans 8:3 FOR WHAT THE LAW COULD NOT DO, IN THAT IT WAS WEAK THROUGH THE FLESH, GOD sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, CONDEMNED SIN IN THE FLESH:” END ADAM’S QUOTE and his twisting scripture
Adam has twisted another Bible verse to use as a prop for preaching his favorite heresy!! Adam preaches an extremely dangerous heresy!! Thankfully, the perfectionist heresy, as taught by Adam, was exposed and refuted by the historic church long ago for the false teaching that it is.
If Adam were astute to the scripture that he so often copies and pastes irresponsibly, he might have noticed the meaning of Romans 8. But he even missed the meaning in Romans 7 !!!
Romonas 7 is about the normal Christian who sets out to do good but is constantly aware of falling short of God’s perfect standard.
Paul admits that this is frustrating!!! He cries out in despair, vv24”What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25Thanks be >>>to God<<<, >>>through Jesus Christ our Lord!<<< So then, >>>with my mind<<< I serve the law of God, >>>but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.”<<<
In Romans 8, Paul continues breaking out in the highest kind of praise, but it’s directed >>>>TO GOD, NOT HIMSELF<<<< (see Romans 8 below)
Romans 8
New International Version
Life Through the Spirit
8 Therefore, there is NOW NO CONDEMNATION(A) for those who are IN CHRIST JESUS, because THROUGH Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life(D) has set you[a] FREE (E) from the LAW of sin(F) and death. 3 For what the law was POWERLESS (G) to do because it was WEAKENED by the flesh,[b](H) >>>GOD DID<<< by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh(I) to be a sin offering.[c](J) And so HE condemned sin in the flesh, 4 IN ORDER THAT THE RIGHTEOUS requirement(K) of the law might be FULLY MET IN US who DO NOT LIVE according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.(L)
ADAMS problem begins with the assumption that God’s HOLY righteousness must be less than it is but ADAM’s “righteousness” is greater than it is!! (But the Bible refers to Adam’s “righteousness” as “filthy rags”)
Let me repeat, ADAM wants us to believe that HIS “righteousness“, that he assumes to be able to “perform”, is greater than it really is !!!
But Adam thinks that God’s HOLY standard of righteousness must be low enough so that a perfectionism heretic like Adam can achieve it!!!
In other words, Adam’s heretical perfectionism teaches that Gods righteousness and holy standards must be low enough for humans to “PERFORM” them
THIS IS THE EXACT KIND OF RANK HERESY BELIEVED BY THE PHARISEES AND HYPOCRITES WHO NAILED JESUS TO THE CROSS !! They also believed that “performing” their human works made them “acceptable” in the sight of God
Romanists also held to this type of false teaching during the time of Martin Luther.

"Romonas 7 is about the normal Christian who sets out to do good but is constantly aware of falling short of God’s perfect standard."
Generalizing is not heresy ?
Romans 7 is falling short according to your private thoughts which speak only these words of
Romans 7:vv24”What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25Thanks be >>>to God<<<, >>>through Jesus Christ our Lord!<<< So then, >>>with my mind<<< I serve the law of God, >>>but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.”<<<
Do you not have an answer who saves us from the body of this death?
Romans 7:6 BUT NOW WE ARE DELIVERED FROM THE LAW, that BEING DEAD WHEREIN WE WERE; that we should SERVE IN NEWNESS OF SPIRIT, and not in the oldness of the letter.
Romans 8:21 BECAUSE THE CREATURE ITSELF SHALL BE DELIVERED FROM THE BONDAGE OF CORRUPTION INTO THE GLORIOUS LIBERTY of the children of God.
Colossians 1:13 WHO HATH DELIVERED US FROM THE POWER OF DARKNESS, AND HATH TRANSLATED US INTO THE KINGDOM OF HIS DEAR SON:
We fell short of Gods glory, so He justifies us, if He does not justify us, we fasll short in wickedness instead of the Lords glory and Holiness.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Romans 8:30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
I predicted you would try to change the focus, are you not fulfillng it claiming I am praising myself ?
What you post is correct though, sin is condemned and finished, we do not live according to the flesh but the Spirit which fu;lfils the righteousness of the law..
Romans 8: 3-4 And so HE condemned sin in the flesh, 4 IN ORDER THAT THE RIGHTEOUS requirement(K) of the law might be FULLY MET IN US who DO NOT LIVE according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.(
"But Adam thinks that God’s HOLY standard of righteousness must be low enough so that a perfectionism heretic like Adam can achieve it!!!
In other words, Adam’s heretical perfectionism teaches that Gods righteousness and holy standards must be low enough for humans to “PERFORM” them"
do your words sound like what you just shared of Romans 8:3-4 littledavid ?
does anyone else think that Romans 83-4 says the same as david, that we cannot perform Gods Holy standard ?
does anyone read it as told, that the righteousness of the law is met/fulfilled in us, who do not live/walk according to the flesh, but according/after the Spirit? Is that not Gods Holy standards of righteousness being met by us when given grace and faith in the blood of Christ by Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior ?
