"It is impossible to renew unto repentance" (Hebrews 6)

The flesh profits nothing. Gospel of Christ: FLESH

There are no separate messages, requirements and allocations to anyone based on their qualities of the flesh whether Jew or Gentile. It profits nothing. We are ALL ONE MAN: the body of Jesus Christ.

Phil 3
2Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.

7But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of ALL things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.

Paul is talking about the righteousness that comes by faith, as Peter put it, "growing in Grace."

Gentiles should have NO confidence in their flesh as Gentiles. And Jews should have NO confidence in the flesh as Jews. We should count it all a pile of poop like Paul did. Gentiles have no different admonitions, instructions, administrations than Jews. There is no more "US" and "THEM." That's all done with, replaced with Christ and him crucified.

  I  found this amazing  Bro Seth        that Jesus is our rest and its rest in HOPE    and in Love and the increase of God

When in the Body of Christ showing us the   ONENESS    and gathering into Him    any thing outside of the HOLY CITY /BODY OF CHRIST      is still outside the gates     and have not entered   yet .

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."
John 16:33


But the  baptism  by the water of John the  Baptist    Jesus was  going to cause Division            for me its the old covenant  and the new covenant  division
  those under law  / Moses  in whom they trust    verse those under grace   /Christ in whom we place our trust     

he who is not with me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me doth scatter.



Luke 12 ;49] 49"I have come to set fire to the earth, and I only wish it were already burning."



50"I have a baptism with which to be baptized, and I am much afflicted until it is fulfilled."


51"Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? I say to you, no, but division."[    the division of gathering in Christ by grace or the  scattering  against Christ Body   



52"From now on there shall be five in one house who are divided, three against two and two against three."

53"For a father will be divided against his son and son against his father, mother against her daughter and daughter against her mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law."

  no divisions in Christ Many Members, One Body
12For, even as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the one body,


being many, are one body, so also [is] the Christ,

13for also in one Spirit we all to one body were baptized, whether Jews or Greeks, whether servants or freemen, and all into one Spirit were made to drink,

14for also the body is not one member, but many;

15if the foot may say, 'Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body;

16and if the ear may say, 'Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body?

17If the whole body [were] an eye, where the hearing? if the whole hearing, where the smelling?

18and now, God did set the members each one of them in the body, according as He willed,

19and if all were one member, where the body? 20and now, indeed, [are] many members, and one body


; 21and an eye is not able to say to the hand, 'I have no need of thee;' nor again the head to the feet, 'I have no need of you.'

22But much more the members of the body which seem to be more infirm are necessary,

23and those that we think to be less honourable of the body, around these we put more abundant honour, and our unseemly things have seemliness more abundant,

24and our seemly things have no need; but God did temper the body together, to the lacking part having given more abundant honour,

25that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same anxiety for one another,


26and whether one member doth suffer, suffer with [it] do all the members, or one member is glorified, rejoice with [it] do all the members;

27and ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

For me and  my thoughts   this is the Holy City/ the Body of Christ       / called out from the world ones !

so simple is the for  Him or against Him      and the fire that   divides    in the earth         from dead works to Living works   Paul   in  this  testimony  /prophecy    witness      and our  works   tried by the fire    1 Cor  3

12Now if any man builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,


13each man's work will become evident; for the day will show it because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each man's work. 14If any man's work which he has built on it remains, he will receive a reward

  I know  for myself the judgment seat of Christ is now and is in effect       one  side or the other side
  in Christ or outside of Christ    division

God bless       this thread      has  helped in more ways than one
  and  the simplicity    in Christ is just amazing 

and every knee  will bow and tongue confess the Lord Jesus Christ one day !!!   !! :flowerred:
