So do I. I AM SolaOne Kanobie.
Why do people call writing in caps yelling?
IT'S THE GRACE TO BE ABLE TO OVERCOME THAT NATURAL INCLINATION TO RESIST. THAT IS WHAT IT IS.

How long have you been online? This has been known since the early days of message boards and bulletin boards online. All caps is rude, is is the equivalent of shouting, and it is not considered good "netiquette".
I'm a newbie - didn't know.
I apologize to the net world, bulletin boards in general and this forum in particular. I did not mean to be so rude.
If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness. (Romans 8:10 NASB)
Quote the whole verse, in context. You tried this a few months ago and it was explained then.
Christ is in you ------- According to you after justification, which is after belief. Which..... is why the spirit is made alive BEcause of righteousness.
The whole verse makes perfect sense in perfect order.
1. belief
2. righteousness/justification, and because of this
3. Spirit comes into you/ indwells you
4. your spirit comes alive!
Great rebuttal.

Where is belief mentioned in that verse?
You have said that the indwelling doesn't happen until justification by faith. How does Christ get in you? How do you become righteous?.....By Faith!
Faith, Righteousness, Indwelling, spirit come alive because of these!!!!!
You avoided answering the question. Where is belief mentioned in that verse?
Pistis is not mentioned in Rom 8:10. Your point?
Romans 8:10 shows the relationship between your spirit being alive and righteousness (which is by faith).
spirit alive by righteousness, righteous by faith.
1. faith
2. righteousness
3. spirit alive because of these
Well, you keep mentioning Romans 8:10 and faith, but faith isn't mentioned. Paul isn't giving and order of salvation here. He's giving an indicative statement.
It is a very clear order. It is not "you are righteous because your spirit is alive".
Rom 8:10-11
But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness.
And, would you deny that righteousness is by faith?
Again, it's an indicative statement. I'm not sure why you are reading an order of salvation into it.
Paul does cover an order in 29 and 30, though.
"be-CAUSE" sets the order. One is the Cause of the other.
Because: Causality, the process of making something happen; a relationship between events
Right. Because you can't be righteous and then have Christ in you. Christ first, then righteousness is a result.
But it still not giving an order of salvation.
