Comment on Grace works best without consciousness of your works but His

FlyingPen — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:46:19 GMT

So if I don't have momentum, it's God's problem? How does that work? If everything is His responsibility since everything begins with Him, where is my accountability? And if I am not accountable for my behavior, how do I get the change in my life that I want? If this concept as you've laid it out is correct, then only He can generate change in my life and I am powerless in that process.
Thanks

Comment on Faith with out the law (grace for the gentiles)

The 10 commandments as a promise from God is a pretty revolutionary viewpoint. Hmmm..

Comment on Happy are the pardoned, Happy are the justified

Sweet. I am so relieved at hearing this message. It's really hard to be "happy" when you think God is waiting for your next mistake.

Comment on Jesus Calls the IRS (tax collectors) with grace, not with Judgement

Very keen observation that Matthew didn't change because Jesus judged him, but because He didn't. Wow

Comment on The Five Goals of Jesus Christ

Without the Holy Spirit there is no authority and power. He is the Power arm of the God Head. After all He is God’s Spirit.

It is true that He would “come upon” not “ resided in” those in the Old Testament, but because of mans condemnation and self righteousness He could not stay until man could see that God loved him that He provided Himself (God) as a living sacrifice in Jesus Christ. This sacrifice was independent of mans' self effort and was an act of God to remove condemnation.

You see we are condemned when we see that we cannot help but fail in our own strength. We see that without God we can do nothing, because every time we try it independently, our own works fail or end up empty. So God showed us that it is His desire to have us prosper and always win, but only through His power in us. Not independent power that always leaves us empty. The lack of connection with God leaves us with emptiness that cannot be filled by our own efforts. It can only be filled by God’s efforts through us. We where design only to be fulfilled when His power is moving through us. When He is with us we realize that He wants us to use His power to make His will come to pass. This is the message of the Kingdom of God.

I hope this answers your question.

Comment on Stop Trying to Love God, Stop it Right Now!!

Robert Easter — Sat, 02 Feb 2008 02:37:31 GMT

OK, so you're saying we just go on about our lives, not deliberately giving a thought to God (Regardless of Col. 3:1 among many), until a revelation of His love suddenly breaks through on us, and even then we just go on in our own (carnal) way, assuming that either anything godly is going to be forced upon us or else God is going to just arbitrarily pronounce our carnality "righteous?" You mention people "bragging" about loving God- Is it also possible for someone who does love God to confess to that fact giving God the glory for being so love-able?
