Re: Purpose of the law

I believe that at the granting of the gift of the Holy Ghost God enabled the gathered disciples the abilities inherent in rebirth. (Death of the flesh, affections, and lusts...Gal 5:24) A few questions I have for clarification: 1- Do you consider being re-born and born again as the same thing? 2- I...

Re: Purpose of the law

Some question came up to me as I was reading in Luke today. On what grounds were the disciples born again and spirit filled knowing that they did not even believe or understand that Jesus was going to die on the cross and rise again? For the scriptures says it was hidden from them when Jesus tried ...

Re: Purpose of the law

My local pastor/church believes that those in the O.T. were not born again/spirit filled and Dake believed they were. This morning I was reading in Galatians 3:19 that the law was added because of transgressions till the seed should come who was Christ. Why did those in the O.T. before Christ need ...

Re: Purpose of the law

This is my understanding from reading Dake's material. (If anyone who has read Dake's material believes otherwise, please correct me) Those in the O.T. were imputed with righteousness by looking to the cross and believed as Abraham did (James 2:23) and those now look back to the cross and are imput...

Re: Purpose of the law

Just wandering why if the law is not made for a righteous man (1 Tim. 1:9) why did God demand they obey the law in the O.T. if they were already born again and made righteous? The righteous saints of old walked upright and were already in obedience to the law in the sense that they walked upright. ...

Re: The science of sin

[quote=luchnia post_id=97399 time=1543064107 user_id=17729] 14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. [/i] That phrase "drawn away of his own lust" is one that I do not understand. Not sure why it is described as "his own lust". How can a believer own something...

Re: Purpose of the law

My local pastor/church believes that those in the O.T. were not born again/spirit filled and Dake believed they were. I'ld stick with your local pastor on this one. Men couldn't be reborn before Jesus allowed us to partake in His death, burial, and resurrection as new creatures. I thank God for thi...
