[Funkella]

I sincerely hope and pray that you don't stray away from the hope of true repentance which is a complete turn around just as the Sargent ( orders) his army to repent and they all in formation ( as we ought to) Turn Completely around and head in a totally new direction.

May the God of grace keep establish and bless you from the crown of your head to the bottom of your feet and Order your steps to be a faithful witness in and out of your community. Salome X

[Mistabiggstuff]

As it is my prayer that you will always ever gain footing in the liberty of walking in the Spirit. Maturing and moving beyond the need of a school masters tutilage. (The Mosaic Law) & truly understand that those that a led by the Spirit of God ARE the Sons of God. May God continue to reveal himself to you & the lives you impact in ways that are new and refreshing to your souls. Be Blessed.

[Funkella]

How are you going to teach me to sweep my Backyard when you can't even manage to sweep your own.

Salome X

[Mistabiggstuff]

Like I said we all have a resposibility to sweep our own backyard it's not my responsibility to sweep yours nor you mine. I am just glad that God grace and his mercy are lavished upon us and he makes room for all the diversity of his own creation. I do not expect that we will see eye to eye on this issue but I do respect your position. I do think if for nothing else the dialog helps us both solidify in us the reason for our hope in Christ. I am grateful that where the Spirit of teh Lord is there

[Mistabiggstuff]

is liberty. I am also thankful that the work of the Cross released us all from the penalty of sin once & for all. Christ defeated sin past, present & future so that we could focus on living the life of the Spirit.. Thankful that in that journey I may stumble & may not always get it right but God is faithful & does not cast me away. Thankful that I remain his child even at times when i go my own way. Thankful the he said he will NEVER leave me nor forsake me. with even till the ends of the earth.

[Funkella]

I understand that there is a participation of self by the reading and acceptance of the word, it is through the word that we understand that we sin is it not , we through growth move towards serving in the NEWNESS of Spirit and obtain the place we need to be in order to Sin Less. It is by the washing of the word that we become new people with a continual recognition whereby you sustain sanctification.

[Mistabiggstuff]

Yes I agree w/ your statement here. Sanctification is an everyday life long process in which we are becoming more & more like Christ & set apart for the Holy purpose God has for us. Not one of our processes are the same though. Hence none of us can really point the finger at the other & say I am closer to God than you are because I don't do "THAT" we need to walk in love toward all people, even those we consider to be enemies. & how much more toward those who are of the household of faith.

[Tommy4503]

Amen brother Amen Glory to he holy and name that he shell deliver us from all sin and evil, hate is not godly. I do have one issue with Tadd. Tadd is not being himself he's going ageist the natural order of his sexual nature he has married this woman and still haven't came to gripes with his identity which is a sin.

[Funkella]

No man/woman that continues in sexual sin can please God or any other sin so again It is suggested whilst one evangelise and pray for others encouraging that sin is love by God is not suggested in scripture especially when calling themselves ''saved'' if you are saved what is it that you got saved from if you are still struggling with it, when your change comes how will you know? So there is appoint of deliverance where that sin affects you NO MORE. Then you Testify and teach!.

Salome X

[Funkella]

We are called to be Holy as he is Holy so your suggestion of God loving you while you kid others your mind is pure when indeed you are not delivered your sins will find you out. Perfection in Christ is not impossible but to flirt with sexual sin and pretend one is whole is playing a deadly game, you are called to put self under subjection you cannot serve in the flesh but in the Spirit, difficult but obtainable when you transform by the washing of the word. That's the result of salvation.

[Funkella]

There is no darkness in Christ every sin becomes visible through salvation if you have the gift of discernment even the slightest sin can be picked up, so that's some turning over, sexual sin like all other sin is disliked by God and carries it's penalties so suggesting God is anyway in like or love with you when you sin is misinterpretation of scripture. The soul that sins shall surely die. There must be a point of true deliverance until then to kid yourself would not be to Kid God.

[Funkella]

To use the body to do what is unseemly carries a penalty out lined in the bible whereby you are turned over to what is unseemly. No other sin actually manifests itself directly the way sodomy does. It has a visual difference that just cannot cannot be hidden.
