I Am Not Ashamed
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. Rom. 1:16-17
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ should be the motto of every born again Bible believing Christian that is still drawing breath and able to speak. And in a brief but all containing outline please allow me to share with you the gospel of Christ that you need to believe in order to obtain eternal life, God’s power to you is that Jesus Christ died for your sins, he was buried, he rose again from the dead (bodily) the third day and he did it all that so that you could be saved ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES! 1Cor. 15:3-4
Now is as good as time as any to address the women of this age who want to be or have un-Biblically seized the position of being an ordained minister. Foolish, loud, rebellious and clamorous women have convinced themselves and others; the Bible ignorant; they have an unction from the Living God to fill pulpits in public ordained positions of ministry. To that unction, I say HOGWASH! In the Bible all pastors, deacons, elders, and bishops are male. The apostles (a past office) were all male. Women, though have a ministry that most seem to ignore, SOUL WINNING. Every Christian woman should be a soul winner if she wants to preach the gospel with God’s blessing. This ministry can be carried out in a number of ways such as door to door, one on one, bus ministries and etc.
For it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth,notice here that it is not to him that worketh, but to him (or her) that believeth. The water dogs and the holiness cults along with the Endure to the End Cult would have you believe it was according to their particular recipe for eternal disaster.
The just shall live by faith, did we just find a mistake in the AV1611 Holy Bible? Me thinks not! Paul was quoting from Habakkuk 2:4 which says, “The just shall live by HIS faith”. Paul’s was using what is known as a free quote and since he was being moved by God the Holy Ghost to quote it just the way we find it here in the first chapter of Romans we know it is right and quoted just the way God wanted it quoted for a specific purpose. Let’s look at that purpose, shall we?
The quote held in question by those who despise God’s Holy Bible is to show us the difference between Old Testament Salvation and New Testament Salvation. There is a difference! In the Old Testament men and women were saved by combinations of faith and works. The faith spoken of in Habakkuk 2:4 is a man’s personal faith in doing what God told him to do. Example: Noah. In the New Testament we are saved by the faith of Christ and faith in Christ apart from any good work Example: YOU if you are born again. For by grace are ye saved THROUGH FAITH: and that NOT OF YOURSELVES: it is the GIFT OF GOD: NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST. Eph. 2:8-9 Therefore the Holy Ghost was right in moving the apostle Paul to leave out the word “HIS” when quoting from the Book of Habakkuk. Furthermore the translators of the AV1611 were perfectly correct in leaving out “HIS” in this New Testament quotation of the Old Testament.
You know scripture amigodana im just gonna say it so you will get back to the topics being discussed…there ya go thats what u wanted yo hear there is scripture about being haughty to mabey u need to study up on that to
What you are posting is mostly not relevant to what is being discussed in the post.
You should be ashamed, you are deleting His Word, not mine. Does the Word of God bother you Ray, are you afraid of the truth? Do you not have faith in the Word to prove your doctrine?
And I reduced it even more! LOOK!!!!
Because you rattle on and on without a cognitive thought in all the rattle.
you changed my post, that is very deceptive of you!
They seem to have got it right you like to quote scripture from it….
First, it appears that you puked that term out of nowhere. You are a legend in your own mind Ray!
Don’t get so excited. Free quote is simply a term that means the one who mad the original statement can alter it to fit the time and reason he is using it. Example: I say in general terms about roads in general, “When it rains, there is flooding in the roads. And then later I am trying to warn you about immediate flooding of roads in the immediate location I say, “There is flooding in the roads” I simply quoted part of the original statement to fit the expediency of the situation. Both statements are true for the time and situations they are aimed at. Careful, you seem to swallow knats and strain at syllables. Selah.
“did Paul get it right? was he guided by the Holy Ghost?”
2 Timothy 3:16 “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:”
“did the AV1611 translators get it right? Hmm?!”
John 1:1-5
John 1:1 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
John 1:2 “The same was in the beginning with God.”
John 1:3 “All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.”
John 1:4 “In him was life; and the life was the light of men.”
John 1:5 “And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.”
Stop going in these ridiculous circles and answer the question, I answered yours;
What is this thing you call “free quote” and where did you get it from the scriptures?
Back to you, amigadana, did Paul get it right? was he guided by the Holy Ghost? did the AV1611 translators get it right? Hmm?!
OK, now I am a little curious here.
“Paul’s was using what is known as a free quote”
What is this thing you call “free quote” and where did you get it from the scriptures?
Proverbs 3:5 “¶ Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.”
Ray, you are kind of all over the place here, with this one.
