I say "the Jesus of the Bible" includes the truth that the Lord is the Spirit. (2 Cor. 3:17) The Lord said as He lived by the Father so also if we eat Him we will live by Him. I honestly think the more we take Him in and walk by His nourishing and supplying inwardly the more we...

I agree. Look at the contrast of weakness of the law verses the power to set free of the Spirit of life's law. The law of the Spirit of life CAN DO what the law could not do. Power - For the law of the Spirit of life has freed me in Christ Jesus . . . (v.2a) Weakness -...

This reply to your post is not for you. It is for those who might be be taken in by your false accusations. There is no polite to way to say Studyman is lying. In the course of this discussion I have quoted John 1:14 And the Word became flesh . . . If I didn't believe Jesus Christ came in...

And the Lord is the Spirit (2 Cor. 3:17) Is the Lord the Spirit? Yes or No ? The Lord is the Spirit - Yes or No? Your Bible says - The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you. (2 Tim. 4:22) If you are a Christians where is the Lord who is the Spirit? With your spirit...

Not really. Some brothers will tell you up front that they seem not to be too "filled" with the Spirit at all. I was raised in a liberal branch of Presbyterianism and knew quite a few nominal Christians. I have met seminarians with degrees in divinity which I ascertained pretty well "I...

Those who do not have the Spirit of Christ are not of Him. Yet if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not of Him. (Rom. 8:9b) These we may call "nominal Christians" if they profess they ARE of Christ yet have not His Spirit. These nominal Christians are described...

We who know the New Testament well and have experience know what Paul is saying. He doesn't have to mention EVERY aspect of the Spirit of life in that one verse. It is obvious that he is talking about the Spirit which Jesus spoke of as "shall flow rivers of living water" out of the repentant...

Words by the late Brother Witness Lee. Sung by young trainees in learning to serve the Lord and the churches. "Not the law of letters but the Christ of life God desires to give us saving us from strife."

I think you are more confused than I anticipated. Why would I be including an evil spirit in speaking of the Spirit of life in Christ? Why would I be including a demonic spirit to speak of "rivers" [plural] of living water ? You're confused about the matter - one river of water of life...

If you or anyone will read closely it will be seen why this criticism has no ground at all. To begin with, my words there correspond greatly to the words of the Lord Jesus in John 7:38. "I believe the flow" refers to the flow Jesus spoke of - "out of his innermost being shall flow rivers of...

Fans of brother James, sing along with me from his one epistle !

The Holy Spirit was upon him as He was opon many of the prophets. But he did not have within his human spirit the all-inclusive life giving Spirit of the resurrected God-man Jesus. This righteousness piety of Simeon was before the Spirit was inclusive of the human living, death, and...

Studyman this was a typo I corrected. I intended to write that your other comments were NOT ignored. --------------------------------- Now your other points are NOT [edited] ignored. That is all the time I can give right now. ---------------------------------

I too can emphasis any word in the verse. Paul Is talking about the "SPIRIT" of life. Paul is talking about the Spirit "OF" life. Paul is talking about the law of the Spirit of "LIFE." All the words are important. No I do not ignore this. That the law of the Spirit of life is...

After musing on this subject a few more days I decided that the analogy of the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus being like the law of gravity is actually pretty good. The Spirit of divine like in many places in the Word is depected as flowing water. And water flows because of gravity...

HIM if you could, could you tell me how this verse (Hebews 9:27) related to my saying God's hands were not tied in perfecting us beyond the church age? Thanks. And inasmuch as it is reserved for men to die once, and after this comes judgment, We we were, I think, discussing 1 Thess. 5:23?

For the law was given through Moses; grace and reality came through Jesus Christ. In Him Was Life. And the life was the light of men. Sing along John 1:4,5

God morning to you HIM. No, I did not leave out the extra "o". I am happy you did find something you liked in that post. Okay. But I like the Recovery Version. This little endorsement was made to the New Testament portion by F. F. Bruce - to quote - (check other comments at...

You mean resurrect a dead horse. I like that better. He really scolded them. Didn't He? I call them "experts in the Law of Moses." I don't think I do any harm. I really don't think calling the scribes and Pharisees the contempory Torah experts. But if my posts after you read...
