Contrary to what you will see from sonship and other like-minded Christians, the matter of how to get around the problem of sin and weaknesses of the body is dealt with differently by Jesus and the Apostles.
Sonship starts off with:
[i]If you are a struggling Christian, often defeated by some besetting weakness or sin, there is victory. [b] correct ...[text shortened]... ings of the Apostles.
Sonship is miles away from Christ and the Apostles. Dont be led astray.[/b]
- Be holy
- Dont be influenced by the world
- Be humble
- Be diligent and work cheerfully
- Be merciful
- Work hard, and be patient during difficult times
- Be generous
- Bless those who curse you
- Dont be influenced by riches or power and wealth
- Dont repay evil with evil
- Live in peace as far as possible with all men
- Love your enemies
Anything about calling Jesus name all day? ... NO!
How about gathering fellow Christians to sit around and sing hymns ... NO!

Originally posted by leunammiYou are not very perceptive. Here is why
Why do you think that?
- Christians dont talk about commandments or guidelines from Christ or Paul about the Christian lifestyle
- Christians oppose and condemn those [like me for example], if these topics are raised
- Christians say they are saved and saved eternally and good works and righteous living are not required.

So I am not perceptive 'not very perceptive' because I asked "why do you think that?"
Originally posted by Rajk999 Its obvious that Christians don't like to hear the teachings of Paul and the Apostles.
my response to you Why do you think that?
I think most Christians do like to hear the teaching of Paul and the Apostles. My observations of who I think are Christians in this forum anyways, likewise also value the teachings of Paul and the Apostles, and Jesus!
Do you feel that most Christians don't like to hear the teachings of Paul and the Apostles because you have not received more interaction/replies with this thread? If so, I think you may be the one that is not very perceptive and maybe a little narrow minded as well.
Maybe it's you they don't Christians don't like to hear because you are fairly predictable and abrasive, not sure just guessing.

If Christians are so... whatever (insert the word of your choice) what does that make you? Are you a Christian?
I hope you figure it out.

You polarize yourself from other confessing Christian's. Are you different?
Originally posted by leunammi"You polarize yourself"? This comes across as you clumsily dismissing and copping out of the discussion about Christian doctrine but trying, nevertheless, to land a wee cuff to the chin on your rather hasty and undignified way to the exit.

Originally posted by leunammiYou are a waste of time. Go find something better to do as you lack the ability to contribute meaningfully to any discussion. I asked you several questions recently and you ignored me. Do you expect me to answer your nonsense?

Perhaps if you really press Rajk999 ~ I mean really, really press him and press him ~ on how he mentioned beer in an earlier post, he might just shut up, and stop confronting you head on with this matter of Christian doctrine which always seems to make you dance and wriggle and pout. Maybe. What do you reckon? Mention his mention of beers again?

I asked a simple question and was met with what this poster claims is a perception issue, I do not agree. I knew a response from Rajk999 would have been something less than satisfying, but I did it anyways. I don't know why I even bothered,
However, I will honor his request and leave him alone, easy to do and it's not worth it.
Originally posted by leunammiYou must be among the worst when it comes to answering questions. Even though sonship and I are on opposite sides of Christian doctrine at least he answers questions.
Ahhh, no!

Originally posted by Rajk999Raj, I asked you a simple straight forward question with absolutely no pretense, I could have asked it in no simpler terms 'Why do you think that'. Your response to me is I don't perceive. Look at yourself my friend, because I think your comment reflects you more than me.

I get it,
