      [continued from previous message]              not in us.              1Jn 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our       sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.              1Jn 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word       is not in us.              Were are to put to death the fleshly desires in order to walk in the Spirit.              Those who walk in the flesh, even those that think they are doing good works       by doing religious things, are lost, because they are not really doing the       good works of God as they are not doing the will of God that he speaks to       their heart, and just doing things their own way, controlling their lives,       and not giving God the Lead via their Born Again Spirit.              Let Go, Let God. Do not quench the Holy Spirit. 1Th 5:19              God has a plan for you, no matter your age, He wants to share that with you,       should you desire His will.              Friend, there is so VERY much one might say on this topic and it cannot be       covered in one post, I hope this provides some clarification and       understanding. One takeaway on death is that there are various words for it       in both Greek and Hebrew, and out English versions of the Bible are very       generic and does not include all the nuances of this word death, die, etc.       And the Holy Spirit is vital to help us understand and perhaps even to look       it up in both Hebrew and Greek. Even those dictionary sources are limited as       the contextual usages speaks to what the author is actually saying. AI is of       no use in this only the Spirit of the Lord is.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
