That's an evasion. The answer is YES or NO?

Will a man reap what he sows?

I doubt you will get a straight answer, Thursday. And yes, it's a simple question requiring a simple answer. If they answer either yes or no, it puts their theology at risk. And if you press them to answer, they go on the offensive.

So either answer puts our theology at risk? Lol.

Do you not believe those who sow to his flesh will reap corruption?

Galatians 6
7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

What's so funny about that?

Well, I see you tried to answer. Am I right in saying you believe the 4-pointers are the liars?
I didn't say anything about anyone being a liar.

Walk carefully, bro.

I do believe that. What was funny was what I laughed at.

No. It's not possible.

So, Paul was lying.

Galatians 6:8
For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

Perhaps you don't know what 'corruption' is. If not, here is your chance to learn what it means. Here is what it means according to Strong's -

  1. corruption, destruction, perishing
    1. that which is subject to corruption, what is perishable

    2. in the Christian sense, eternal misery in hell
  2. in the NT, in an ethical sense, corruption i.e. moral decay
Now you know, Hammster!

Hammster, your games are old. I truly believe you don't even know what you believe.
There's no games, at least from me. I've answered your questions as asked. The issue is the conclusion you've drawn based on your presuppositions.

Yep, there you go with your games. If you can't answer the questions, attack the other man. The issue is NOT me Hammster. The issue is that you DO NOT believe if one sows to the flesh, they will reap corruption.

That's incorrect.

“For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6:8‬ ‭NASB‬‬

That is 100% true.

And I didn't attack you. I didn't call YOU a liar. I just said that your misunderstanding of my answers, and your assumptions, are based on your presuppositions. We all have them and can cause us to read into someone else's answers something they never intended.

Then plainly tell everyone, will a saved person reap corruption if he sows to the flesh?

If he did, I suppose. But he won't.

“For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace, because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, and those who are in the flesh cannot please God. However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:5-9‬ ‭NASB‬‬
