Actually you're too caught up drinking your gnostic kool-aid to realize we're made acceptable to God, and granted eternal life as a gift by His grace, through the redemption [the atonement for our sin] which is provided in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God displayed openly [before the world] as a [life-giving] sacrifice of atonement
and reconciliation by His blood to be received through faith. Rom 3
Well at least it is red as blood. Take and eat ye all of it, try his drink sometime and see how you come out. But you won't because if you did you would be like the Father as Jesus was like Him.
May I ask why you hate the ways of Jesus so much that you would mock him with those snide remarks that you make of him? You stoop so low as to make pun of him.
For God has delivered us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: Col 1
Only if you have met the son -- AND THE FATHER
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Uhhh no Jesus is no longer with us. he is not the same at all. But Christ is the same for Christ always has been in man man anointed of God, Adam was the first to receieve Gods anointing and became like Him, Jesus didnt come along for another 4000 years and was here for only a short 33 years, co no his is not the same at all, but his Spirit of God never changes and always been in man.
BTW Jesus changed dramatically ion Matt 3:16. SO do we all who is born of Go9d, born again as Jesus was in Matt 3:16. you just dont know what that change was is all from lack in you have the same change.
Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace; Heb 13:8-9
And yours certainly is strange to the Father for sure, for Paul is your way not Jesus at all.
That kool-aid you're drinking is definitely spiked, you're stumbling all over the place.
Yes spiked by the fingers of God Himself. He makes me very happy.
But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know what makes them stumble. Prov 4:18-19
Yes those who are sinners are in deep darkness, Paul never gave up his sin to be in the light however. And you, the sinner, as Paul teaches you to be -- right?
As for me I am the righteousness of God for He in me and I in Him are one. Something you really should consider of yourself if you are to be of Christ as Jesus was fo Christ.
Had you known Jesus you would know the Father of him, but obviously you dont for to you Jesus words are gnostic, in which they really are but you see his ways as evil. That is why you call his ways gnostic, you went no part of God being in you as He was in Jesus as gnostic teaching is. Jesus said the same thing, be one in the Father with He in you and you inHim as one as Jesus was one in Him, which really is gnostic teachings.
You should study the gnostics, they were around before Christianity was established by Constantine and had the same truths as Jesus received from God in Matt 3:16, Jesus believed God resides in man as well, didnt he? But I do agree with you that Jesus was gnostic for sure.
