I think the Apostle Paul was leaning toward a person's dedication to Christ and whether they can fulfill their obligations to the ministry when he was speaking in that verse. There are many people who can go through life without a partner, it's only natural for people to want to be together. The "natural burning with passion" should be controlled.

i dont recall saying you are saved by faith, i would say you are saved by grace and Ephesians 2:8-9 is the scripture.

You need much better lighting on your face and the sound is way too low. Stop rocking back and forth towards and away from the camera and keep your hands away from the lense. Frame the view better, keep your surroundings and back drop simple, contrast color in clothes and surroundings should keep the focus on your face at a distance that it not uncomfortable to the audience.

You say you believe in Christ and I have been proving to be that man who's life is exactly like the life of Jesus for my entire 54 years.

I posts in forums as Jake99 or Jake999 so you can Google me to learn more about what I say in the 7,000 or more posts I have made over the last 5 years or more. My way and the way of Jesus are of logic not magic although I have been responsible for many hundreds of miraculous works and fulfilled prophecies already.

Attached is one of many wars I have fought with my mouth and I am the most efficient and successful bakery manufacturing manager that has ever walked on Earth.

Sincerely, James Murphy

I need you to follow me into the New World that Jesus spoke of.

Comment on mini video sermon, 2 Timothy 4:3 (Church Heresy)

I understand your sympathy, but there can be zero tolerance for for heresy. If you really pay attention to the approach they use, they are all about glory to their organization, not glory to Christ. Some people seem to think it is okay to listen to their teaching since they are talking about Jehovah, and since they got a few other things wrong, its okay. The problem is, when you eat meet with bones, there is always a possibility you may choke o one of them!

Hey C. I still think you need to lay off the Jehovas as they are trying to bring people in too God also. I agree they are wrong but at least they are trying.

I am happy to speak on your request. You are speaking about Romans 8:14-16 NLT. ¹⁴ For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.

¹⁵ So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father. ¹⁶ For his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God’s children.

You are aware that Paul was speaking to a group of believers. This is key because, there are certain topics that you would preach to a believer, and certain ones to a non believer. Paul was speaking words of encouragement, so that the new body of believers would understand they are not slaves to sin, because the Holy Spirit lives in them. Without the spirit, you cannot defeat sin, plain and simple. There is nothing to fear once we become believers in the death burial and resurrection of Christ. He will stand as a mediator between us and the father. He will be the redemption from our sin, which would send us to hell otherwise. A scripture that makes it plain there is nothing to fear is, John 3:18-20 NLT. ¹⁸ “There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son. ¹⁹ And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil. ²⁰ All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed.

I had a friend of mine call me today, and he was concerned about his whore mongering, and the fact he believes in Christ being contrary to this weakness in the flesh of his. I reminded him of Hebrews 10:26, If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left. Lets just say he was not happy with my answer. I am not perfect, but as you know, we have to die daily to this flesh. It is not an easy walk, but we as Christians we can say we have one, glory 2 God! I know that people use this scripture for strength against their sin, but we still have to do our best not to practice sin purposely. I hope I answered your question, and I plan to preach on sin real soon. Thank you for the opportunity to share the gospel with each other.
