9But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
4Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
5Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
64But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
65And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father. There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3For 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:
4That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
6For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
5Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
You are right in showing that Jesus's resurrection from the dead was to show God's FULL acceptance of the sacrifice He sent His Son to perform.
FULL sacrifice means we were/are FULLY freed from sin and God's new plan for mankind begins.
The focus must be taken off the old life and put on the new life In Christ.
Think of it as a computer that becomes filled with data that we no longer have a need for. Think of wiping that computer clean and refilling it with all new data.
Out with the old, In with the new.
Jesus spoke a parable about New Wine saying New Wine must be put in new bottles. This is what happens with us, new wine is put into new bottles.
You are correct in saying this is FULL Justification from sin IF we believe on Him that raised up our Lord from the dead. It must be understood that God sees all those that believe they and others, since the cross as sinners, are dead IN sin.
One is either dead IN sin or alive In Christ. No sitting on the fence here.
I see all those that are still dead IN sin as walking zombies not really knowing their left hand from the right.
I could give you a ton of bible verses but the good thing about having the New Covenant written in the heart and mind is, God just has us speak the words He wants us to speak and lets the chips fall where they may
Have a great day. Lynn
It took awhile for me to understand freedom from sin, so I understand why you see sin the way you do. Let me try and simplify this.
Sin is defined by the Old Covenant Law. When we believed we were sinners, it meant we believed that either the whole Old Covenant Law or parts of that Law applied to us. There is absolutely no way anyone is able to keep that Law without breaking it. That is the way God designed it, in order to fulfill His future plan of creating what Paul calls "new creatures In Christ".
Now, if one believes any part of that Law applies to them, it means they are "dead IN sin" and need to be freed from that Law. The cross frees us from that Law. Once freed that means we are "dead TO sin". In other words, No Covenant Law, No sin.
Our old man, old nature, is nailed to the cross with Jesus because he died in "our" place so we must see our old selves dying on that cross with Jesus. Once we understand the old self/old nature dying and see the new man/new creature In Christ being raised from the dead is when we see "sinless perfection" via Christ now dwelling in us. When we have arrived at the point of understanding our dying and resurrection from sin, via the cross, God then writes His New Covenant in our hearts and minds.
This means the Old Covenant that caused us to be sinners has been taken away and the New Covenant that has us sinfree has begun It's work in our new lives In Christ.
No Old Covenant, No sin New Covenant, Sinfree.
This was longer had to cut it short to fit in. will send a second post soon. Lynn
All evil,illness or mishaps may HE be everyone's in JESUS name I wait your will be done with my life and purpose! Amen halluja YOU come soon!thanks always dear SAVIOR!
7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the Mevaser (bringer of Good Tidings, the Evangelist), that publisheth shalom; that bringeth good tidings of tov, that publisheth Yeshuah (Salvation); that saith unto Tziyon, Thy G-d reigneth!
8 Thy tzofim (watchmen) shall lift up the kol (voice); with the kol together shall they shout for joy; for they shall see it with their own eyes, when Hashem returns to Tziyon.
9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye ruins of Yerushalayim; for Hashem hath comforted His people, He hath redeemed Yerushalayim.
10 Hashem hath made bare His zero'a kedoshah [see Yeshayah 53:1] in the eyes of Kol HaGoyim; and all the ends of ha'aretz shall see the Yeshuat Eloheinu.
11 Depart ye, depart ye; come ye out from there; touch not tameh (unclean thing); come ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that carry the k'lei Hashem.
12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight; for Hashem will go before you; and Elohei Yisroel will be your rearguard. T.N. Avdi Tzemach Moshiach [Zecharyah 3:8] will be exalted; but He must do the work of a kohen [Tehillim 110:4] regarding the nations, sprinkling them (see Vayikra 4:16-17; 16:14); so yazzeh ("He [Moshiach] will sprinkle,") many goyim; note: hiphil of "naza," "splatter", meaning "sprinkle"); see Zecharyah 9:9-11 where Moshiach comes with the dahm and the Brit (Covenant)! Here in Yeshayah 52:15, the covenant dahm (blood) is sprinkled upon the nations of the world; the King of Kings shall shut the mouths of the kings of all the earth.
13 Hinei, Avdi [Moshiach, see Zecharyah 3:8] shall act wisely, he shall be raised and be lifted up, and be highly exalted.
14 As rabbim (many) were appalled at thee [Moshiach]; his appearance was so disfigured more than any man, and his form more than the bnei adam;
15 So yazzeh Goyim rabbim (he [Moshiach] will sprinkle many nations); the melachim (kings) shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which had not been told them shall they see;
Isaiah 52
6 Therefore My people shall know My name; therefore they shall know in that day that I am He that doth speak. Behold, it is I."
7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, "Thy God reigneth!"
8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring again Zion.
9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the Lord hath comforted His people, He hath redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The Lord hath made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.
11 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the Lord.
12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the Lord will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your rearward.
13 "Behold, My Servant shall deal prudently, He shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high.
14 As many as were astonished at thee-His visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men"
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
12 Then shall ye call upon Me, and ye shall go and pray unto Me and I will hearken unto you.
13 And ye shall seek Me and find Me when ye shall search for Me with all your heart
this saved me from committing suicide JESUS spoke this and voila the darkness was gone
May HE bless you with peace love and joy
Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. When you except Jesus Christ you are stepping into a sphere beyond all understanding! You are just beginning to see what the kingdom is and what is in store for those that believe on his name!
27 And he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasure and had come to Jerusalem to worship,
28 was returning; and sitting in his chariot, he was reading Isaiah the prophet.
29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, "Go near and join thyself to this chariot."
30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, "Understandest thou what thou readest?"
31 And he said, "How can I, unless some man should guide me?" And he besought Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
32 The place of the Scripture from which he read was this: "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb before his shearer is dumb, so opened He not His mouth.
33 In His humiliation, His judgment was taken away. And who shall declare His generation? For His life is taken from the earth."
34 And the eunuch answered Philip and said, "I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? Of himself, or of some other man?"
35 Then Philip opened his mouth and began at the same Scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water; and the eunuch said, "See, here is water! What doth hinder me from being baptized?"
37 And Philip said, "If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
No right hand - no head - not a good look at all. They would have less hand & head trauma by refusing the Mark from the beginning. Right?
And he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name."
Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus." ( Revelation 14:9-11)
Once you take the Mark, it's recorded in heaven.
Satans goal is to kill as many humans as possible; with the time he has. Satan will be held in hell for 1000 years. His final place will be in the Lake of Fire for eternity.
I'm curious as to what makes you think you can cheat death? If Satan can't cheat death no one else can either.
Satan and Antichrist are going to have drones equipped with infrared which can spot humans. GPS to alert troops your location. If they don't gun you down you'll be taken to a place to take the Mark, bow down and worship Antichrist. If you don't take it, you'll see all of your unsaved family members beheaded first.
They have equipment they can use to spot humans underground. If you have a Bible they will not let you keep it.
Go outside at night sometime and look at some of the Small blinking things in the sky: they're drones...at work.
After the Rapture, the first act will be to confiscate all Bibles. Finding fresh water will be Hard, since an asteroid named Wormwood will poison it everywhere. It had stories & photos on NASA, but they've removed them because it scares people. But other people keep the copies they had, back on websites. Check Hubble website.
What's going on? Is this some kind of fascination of sci-fi like themes? It's going to be 100 times worse than Hunger Games.
God recorded that this is going to happen. We've had 2000 years To get used To the idea.
Get saved now. Get the whole family saved).
Mishael
3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:
4 And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:
5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.
Here are the scriptures of Adams Geneology. Seth was born, and his bloodline carried on Jesus's bloodline. That's who God ordained.
Yes Adam and Eve had other children. But they are not named and there is NO mention of twins.
Mishael
Eve had 'flaternal'(?) twins?? What Scripture?
We've lived on the Earth millions of years? Any scriptural proof?
Right?
So I see that those living during Anti-Christ's rule have to make a similar decision. I dare say, that most would willingly take his Mark if they are to survive & function normally on Earth under his rule. Yet, when God's Wrath is finally poured out upon the whole Earth, then all will suffer under God's Hand, when even the Anti-Christ himself will be powerless & will be subject to its terrors.
I suppose those that accept the Mark can remove it or cover it up, but what would that serve, as removing the Mark will then bring them under the wrath of Anti-Christ & they stand to be killed or be rendered hungry & homeless.
Secondly, you wrote: "The cross was far more than a payment for sins", but you spoke of Jesus' resurrection making "it possible for us to be resurrected from that old life". I see what you're getting at, but Jesus' resurrection from the dead, in theological terms, was specifically to show God's full acceptance of the Sacrifice ( Rom 1:4: "And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead). And also by the full justification of the sinner: ( Rom 4:24, 25: "(righteousness) will be imputed if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.")
Christ's crucifixion was purely a Redemptive, Substitutionary work on our behalf just as God's justification of us & acceptance of Jesus' Sacrifice were the result of Jesus' Resurrection.
