Putting words in my mouth again (as usual).
You have no sin? You're sinless?
You have your own delusional definition of repentance, then.
I repent daily.
You need to look up the word. It means to change your mind. Seems you never changed if you have to do it every day. That is not true repentance. That is worthless crying or complaining or begging or something but you just have no motivation probably because you killed the Holy Spirit that told you you have to be good.
So what is that incomprehensable blurb you posted, then?
Naaaa, I can't take credit for writing Luke chapter 18.

I'm guilty. I'm in the "Jesus Christ is Lord, He is my redeemer, He is my Savior, King, and High Priest, glory to the King of kings, and Lord of lords, my soul has been redeemed by Christ" cult.
The cult that Mr. NuT belongs to seems to be one that creates nice biblical sounding slogans without understanding what the verses that the words were extracted from mean.
No, you missed the point because you are linking something to it artificially. Did you get that cute little trick from a blog, too?
You missed the point completely.

Something you copied and pasted from a blog?
That is not the Bible but someones attempt to paraphrase a great big chunk of the Bible.
This is exactly the kind of stuff I keep complaining about.
You pick out stuff off blogs that seems cute or something, then write about it as if it is Gospel truth.
Can you explain what any of that even means?
Stop doing it, then because it is pure garbage, just wild speculation and I already told you how to read Revelation straight without all the mumbo jumbo weird explanations. Like I just said in my last post, you never read any verse straight and twist every single one.
Ugggggh, I really hate repeating myself. Once again.......

You cited 1 Corinthians 12:1 and you must have meant verses 2 and 3.
I quoted the verses and you ignore it and add really out of place and off-topic verses to explain it.
You are the one who always claims to just read the verse and understand what it says but in reality, you have some scheme you learned somewhere to artificially throw unrelated verses on top of each other and stir it all up until you get it to say what you want.
Then you take my straight interpretation and ridicule it.
This is the very height of hypocrisy and you need to stop making all your braggadocios claims about how you follow scripture because you follow crazy blog logic.

So why are you bragging about living a sinful life?
LOL! Where do you get this idea that we don't have to live by the spirit and strive to be as much like Christ as we can??? I never indicated such.

Why do you always claim living a righteous life is not necessary for salvation?
Why do you spend all that energy refuting living a life of good works?
Do you think you will be going to heaven continuing to live the life of a sinner?
Why are you talking about that? I realized right away what you meant. That's not the issue. The issue is instead of looking at what the verses actually means, you pull in a verse about Peter which has nothing to do with what Paul was talking about. You take one un-understood verse and then combine it with something of a completely different topic to make a new unrelated third thing which is completely meaningless but sounds good to you.
The only time in this thread I qutoed 1 Corinthians 12:1 was THIS post. And it was a mistake. I've correctly quoted 1 Corinthians 12:3 numerous times since that post. It was an error, get over it. Moot point.

Paul was talking to new Christians who had been worshipping idols and having oracles and strange predictions from people channeling the gods. Paul was trying to explain what true spirits were like.

So why all the bema nonsense?
Our rewards/crowns are going to be thrown to the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Just to explain away the judgement?
Ugggggh, I really hate repeating myself. Once again.......
No one is "explaining" away judgment. I'm stating that there are different judgments spoken of in scripture. Believers are judged on their works not their sins. Rewards are won or lost, salvation is not. That's from PAUL not me. There is also a "sheep and goats" judgment immediately prior to Christ's millennial reign to determine who enters the kingdom and who is cast into hell for having the marks of the beast or persecuting the elect. the "great white throne" judgment transpires at the end of the 1,000 year reign of Christ. It's the resurrection and judgment of the "dead", the wicked and ungodly from Cain to satan and the antichrist. All are cast into the lake of fire who are not found in the book of life. People who do not have a covenant relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
The "judgment seat (bema in Greek) is the judgment for believers who have a covenant relationship with Jesus, and worthless works (wood, hay, and stubble) are "burnt up" and rewards are lost. Works done through the Holy Spirit and for God's glory and Jesus's kingdom are rewarded. no person at this Bema judgment goes to hell, even if all their works are burnt when tried with fire.
1. "Judgment Seat (Bema) of Christ" happens after the rapture of the church, takes place in heaven prior to the marriage supper of the lamb. Those who lost their rewards are cast into "utter darkness" and are not allowed to participate in the marriage supper.
2. "Sheep and Goats Judgment" happens when Christ comes back with His bride and the angels to Earth and happens immediately after the battle of Armageddon and just prior to the advent of His 1,000 year reign on the "throne of David".
3. "Great White Throne Judgment" Revelation says this judgment happens after the 1,000 reign, after satan is loosed from his banishment, the "dead" are resurrected at this point and judged, those who lived during the 1,000 year eign are also judged. Angels are judged by us at this judgment.
All different judgments, at different times, with different people, and different outcomes. You drag them all together when the text says otherwise.
Explain to me how I magnify Jesus Christ as the risen Lord, the King of kings without the indwelling of the Holy Spirit?
What? Why ar you throwing out terms? You were talking about the judgements in revelation and I went over them, back on the mousetrails thread, verse by verse to see what it is actually saying. Now you are bringing up stuff I never talked about. I don't know where you get that from but it had to be a conversation with someone else.
" I already told you how to read Revelation straight"
Appeal to authority. Irrelevant claim. Your interpretation of Revelation is quite off. You can't even figure out that after Chapter 4:1 God's attention is on Israel and the Jewish elect/saints who will come to the Lord. The candlesticks (the church) is in heaven at that point. And you completely ignore Romans chapters 9, 10, and 11 that Paul hammers away that God is NOT finished with Israel, both the Abrahamic and Davidic covenants will be fulfilled by the Lord.

Deal with it. Jesus is Lord, and He is returning soon. My entire trust and faith is in Him and what He did.

Just think about what I already said.
Oh, you are talking about the Jewish thing with the dispensationalist view. I just ignore all that because it is obviously mumbo jumbo cooked up garbage that is a whole theology made up to trick Christians to accept a reconstituted modern Israel in Palestine. That is for chumps.
