Hope this helps. I see it this way, if I only love those that love me, or are a part of my group, how would I be differant from anyone else.
The best way to kill hate is love, love inspite of. We are all on a journey who is to say one is right and another is wrong. Go with what your heart says...
I think that comes from john 3:16
For God so loved the that he gave his only begotten Son that who so ever believes, shall be saved.
I do not remember where these verses are: Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God himself that worketh this in you.
So it is not me it...
How can anyone obey all 613, let alone broken down to ten, then two by Jesus
Almost sounds like lot in Sodom and Gomorah. If I find fifey, then ten, then WoW
Since God claims to love us there has got to be a way.
Ye I am like the other post, if all we had to do is accept jesus, then what about...
Thanks and that makes sense as long as one is genuine, I can see that, yet what if one is wrong in this, I wonder if genuine enough would be enough?
I know I am genuine yet I am not perfect and have tried to be, and can not attain it, yet I am genuine.

Is the forgiveness issue over after the cross? or is it on going after the cross?
In other words When Christ Died for the sins of the whole world, Was his father satisfied?
Now today if one receives this Forgiveness provided through the cross is that one Forgiven? Do they need to still ask for...

And how do we determine who is being led by the Spirit? Protestants? There are numerous sects, so obviously not everyone by your own criteria has such a perfect understanding. There may indeed be incongruities between Paul and Jesus nonetheless.
It is...
1. selfisness: doing anything for anyone to be thought of as good, to gain something from the one they helped and or Family. It is having self gain in mind behind the scenes.
2. Selflessness: no expectations, behind the scenes, one does what one does because it is right and they love their...
1. Do you believe the verse truth will set you free?
2. So then error in my, your truth would put you/me in bondage, correct?
So then if I/you are in bondage on anything, then there would be some kind of error in my/your truth, and I/you would have to find this error in my/your truth and fix...
Jesus taught under the law, under a curse, you would have to obey the whole law, not miss anything, paul taught all have fallen and the reason for the law was put in place to show us our inability to oney the whole law. When Jesus walked the earth fullfilling the old Covenant of law he...
that makes sense, for the bible claims we are born into this world as a non believer, then growing up does not always help as we go through tradgedy after tradgedy. we all respond differantly to each good thing or bad thing that we experience. Everything that happens leaves a mark to some degree...
Well yes english from greek a lot of times get wrongly translated. So it the meaning to be revealed to the truth. Tell me do you believe that the truth will set one free?

I agree with you we all have free will to choose the creator of all, the fallen angel, just plainly ourself, or someone that we think can lead us to salvation.
For me I choose God the creator of all, who knows all, sees all, and has mercy, (grace on all) just not everyone has received this love...
Yes that is correct that John is still a part of the old Testament for it is before the death, burial and ressurection, God even had grace oin the beginning with Adam and Eve afterr they ate. his mercy endures forever
It is in the whole chapter, Our law is to stone her, Jesus Okay then he who is...
I am not sure what you mean here, but I will take a stab at it
Jesus did what he was told by his Father, and w/o ?
No one except a fictional son could behave perfectly. I could want to say if I were the fictional Son, I would want to be perfect yet I could not be perfect on my own.
So the only...
John 8, Jesus had, has mercy, Grace here was promoted over the law by Jesus
Grace and mercy are synonomous
Yes Paul is recorded as one that defiines grace, Jesus is the giver of grace, paul received it while being taught by christ. this is in Galations 1 onward

Sorry I misread that one thanks for letting me know.
I think he already did that through the death, burial, ressurection, and ascenscion.
He did this/ we did not, I think to show how much he loves us. I think it is in discovering this, that one escapes all fear, and punishment, it is perfect...
