Rom 8:1 [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 has made me free from the law of sin and death.
what do you think the Law/rules of the Spirit is ? there is no condemantion /judgments there ?
Paul said he was free no longer bound by that rule
is the Law of the Spirit
to love God and everyone regardless of their position ? Looking towards the Spirit and life in them
and not their flesh ?
Love Romans 8 and wondering if the law of sin and death is what to many focus on especially the ET lot ?
Oh Brian , thanks for the post and the help !
that is simple enough for me to grasp!! :icon_flower:
I did not mean to knock the ETers I was one me self for many years !!
just the last few has UR come to me personally and that was a inward struggle till the Good Lord settled it for me ..
I have nothing but compassion for the TRUE CHRUCH /BODY OF CHRIST :HeartThrob: But the firey ministers sure can fry ya to nothing bro ,,, old war wounds I reckin ' :sigh:
THE Lord sure did raise the Standard with loving your enemies
it was hard eneough when and eye for and eye and tooth for tooth was the Law / Standard
His Spirit and Love have to come in like a flood to wash away all that old filth of the flesh
God bless ya bro , you made my day !
tou are right the chstening of the LORD just proves His love for us all the more does'nt it ?
Again very well said Bro ! :Sparkletooth:
they, the ET church I belonged to just done alot of condemning and judging and I felt the hypocrite bro so bad , it was one of the reasons I became so suicidal so long ago ,its True , I could never ever measure up
had alot of guilt and than when I tried so hard and failed it was a double whammy , you know it was inward as well as outward condemnation and damnation life was so unbearable , my husband wanted to leave me , and the church was not very supportive
so I felt I had failed the true test and all but gave up , I done lots of talking to Jesus on a personal level
than one day , one wonderful day the preacher was using this poor man in shorts mowing his lawn on a sunday as an example
of how he was going to hell and not doing right by Gods laws etc , and he kept going on and on about it , but the Lord the Spirit
spoke to me in a very small clear voice
asking do you believe this ?
and I said No you are the Lord God you can save anyone any where any time
YOU ARE GOD!! and that was my release from them ! the Voice said ''than why are you here ?''
I was dumbfounded , I had no good answer and swept up my Children and fleed to the Mountain of Gods Grace for safety Now that is how I got from there to here lol
Brian , thanks for the pleasure of getting to talk to you a little
I have enjoyed your posts !
God bless you always with more of Jesus ... Rose
