Your protestations mean nothing to me. It is always the same, I am placing you on ignore. Because you have no knowledge of the truth, you continuously have to try and say what you wrote did not mean what it said. Life without being led of the Holy Spirit into truth leaves a person rationalising...

I stated that LGW wrote: The moment you become a Christian you have no righteousness of your own because all have sinned. LGW response That is a lie and I have never said such things. LGWs post 291 from the thread Is sin really the transgression of the law: None are righteous to start with...

I have no interest in your explanations. It is the same with me, JLB, Klute, Bob S and listed. You deflect from addressing points put to you, refusing to respond to them. You just quote much of the letter telling people their interpretation is proved wrong by what you quote. In order to deflect...

The above is sda belief I am sure. One wonders why Christ died at Calvary if it is true. When saul the Pharisee made a personal commitment to God at the age of thirteen he would have been exonerated of any sin he had previously committed. Then he too would have believed he would not be under...

So the Christian dies to sin/breaking the law, and then they have been released from the condemnation of the law and the penalty for breaking it. Then they can serve in the new way of the Spirit and not the old way of the written code No one is under the condemnation of any law if they do not...

The one who said the Holy Spirit would guide them into truth. The one who gave Paul his message, and in the message given to him by Christ, he stated, you must follow after the Holy Spirit, not the written code

No one will learn the truth by following after the written code, only the Holy Spirit can lead into truth, and according to Paul, you follow one way or the other

Its worth pointing out, in verses 4-6 romans ch7 paul states: So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God. 5 For when we were in the realm of...

There is little to be gained by discussion with them, for the reasons you have given. You either follow after the Holy Spirit, or the written code, it cannot be both according to what Paul wrote. And only the Holy Spirit can lead you into truth.

Who are you writing all this stuff to? No one seems interested. Can't say I blame them

I'm not twisting anything. I simply quoted your words. There is no point in continuing this. If it is any help to you, the majority probably agree with you(in reality.) You have Christ's righteousness at the point of conversion, after this your righteousness is observing the law. Thanks for the...

Christ is the end of the law unto righteousness for everyone who believeth Rom 10:4 I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the law Christ died for nothing Gal2:21 Not having a righteousness of my own that comes through the law but that which is by faith in...

If you become unrighteous by failing to observe the law, your righteousness is observing the law. I simply quoted what you wrote. None are righteous to start with for all have sinned/failed to observe the law. Therefore they need Christ's righteousness. After this initial phase however, if they...

You wrote, and I quote: None are righteous to start with because all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God and the wages of sin is death. That is why we need the gift of God's dear son. Christs sacrifice for our sins make us righteouss as we have faith in his Sacrifice for our sins...

So if I understand you correctly. At the point of conversion, none are righteous for all have sinned, therefore they need Christ's sacrifice for their sins to make them righteous before God. However, after this initial phase, the believer is then righteous before God by not committing...

I would be happy to address your point, if you can firstly address the question I put to you. If a person is not righteous in God's sight by observing the law/not committing sin, how can they then become unrighteous in God's sight by failing to observe the law/commit sin. You need to address...

Lets stick to the point at hand. If you are not declared righteous by observing the law/not committing sin, how can you then be declared unrighteous if you fail to observe the law/commit sin?

So at the point of conversion you are declared righteous/justified apart from observing the law, but once in a saved state your righteousness is observing the law/not committing sin?

If you are not righteous in God's sight by observing the law/not committing sin, how can you then be made unrighteous in God's sight by failing to observe the law/committing sin?
