That was a lot to digest.
But you made a comment "The soul is found in the blood ". Where did you find this information?

I like her have been divorced several times and have been happily living with a man for over 21 years. I was saved by grace through faith and biblically baptised in 1979. I have had peace of mind and spirit because Christs response was different toward the woman at the well vs the woman caught in adultry when after he rebuked the crowed with challenging the one without sin to cast the first stone. He rebuked the woman by telling her to go and sin no more.
Why the difference? I have asked for forgiveness because I acknowledge I am continuing to live in adulty, even though it is a committed spousal relationship. He does not believe in marriage and marriage has not worked out for me in my past.
Many will ask the question; How does Satan deceive this whole world?
As a master deceiver he transformed himself into a false apostle and into an apostle of Christ through the Religions of this world ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15).
Seek, and ye shall find ( Matthew 7:7).
Praise GOD
What does the Word of GOD say for this current time, the seventh and last Day, the Lord's Day, or seventh and last millennium? The Word is GOD, self-executable, understand?
Romans 6:2-3
2 Do ye not know that the saints shall Judge the WORLD? and if the WORLD shall be Judged by you(we), are ye(we) unworthy to Judge the smallest matters?
3 Know ye not that we shall Judge angels (ANGELS of the Churches: Revelation 2:2; and 2:9; and 2:14-17; and 2:20; and 3:1-3; and 3:7-8; and 3:14-18)? How much more things that pertain to this life?
Daniel 7:22
22 ... and Judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the Kingdom.
Revelation 11:15-18
15 ... The kingdoms OF THIS WORLD are become the Kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
18 And the nations were (WILL BE) angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
Get ready
1 Peter 4:17 - 17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
John 2:28 - And now, little children, abide in Him; that, when He shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

-in conclusion
Certain things in and testament we can not do but are important in reading and retaining them into out hearts and the Lord God He is a teacher if you search with all ( Jeremiah 29:30 and Matthew 22:37-40) your heart and mind and everything within you. He will teach you about his commandments statues and Law, all that we are required to do before Our God.
it is written in Deuteronimy 28:1
1.And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2and all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.
Brethren I beseech thee in our Life, Let us all take Heed according to This BOOK of Life The Scriptures which can not be broken and which makes a simple man wise.

-Please read Your BIBLE, Pray and ask The Lord Jesus Christ to help you understand and God id faithful if you ask Amen
it is written in Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost
it is written in
1 John 1:1-3
1Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. 2By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. 3For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
-The commandment of God and not only the ten commandments but the whole scriptures which proceeds out of the mouth of God.Christians who have repented of their sins at the cross and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ the Son of the Living God need to Obey what God has taught and is is teaching Us, You and I though His word. THE BIBLE.
and an example of one The commandment of God is written in
proverbs 4:20-27
20My son, attend to my words;
Incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21Let them not depart from thine eyes;
Keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22For they are life unto those that find them,
And health to all their flesh.
23Keep thy heart with all diligence;
For out of it are the issues of life.
24Put away from thee a froward mouth,
And perverse lips put far from thee.
25Let thine eyes look right on,
And let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
26Ponder the path of thy feet,
And let all thy ways be established.
27Turn not to the right hand nor to the left:
Remove thy foot from evil.
-Therefore if any man keeps this saying of God, God will like he as a wise man who build his house upon the rock, Please read the rest of proverbs 4 and Let God teach you amen.

Father we are men and if we speak as men then all our words is in vain but if you touch this words, each one of us may be edified and glorify you amen.
I believe in the Lord Jesus Christ who is is the son of the living God and he died on the cross for my sin and rose on the third day and sit on the right hand hand of poor Amen.
-The law or the commandment of Moses was given to man to obey and if anyone obeyed he was made righteous by it. and in the New Testament at the cross by The Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ the son of the living God, the righteous requirement of the law was abolished and when Jesus Christ son of the living God gave up His ghosts at the cross the temple vail was torn in two signifying the way to the Holy of Holiest was open that thus
it is written
Hebrews 4:16
16.Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
-it is required of Christians who been redeem by Grace and faith alone and not by corruptible things like silver, gold or tradition bought by our father but by the preciouse blood Of out Lord Jesus Christ to be obedient to the Commandment of God and not only to obey but to be doer of the the WORD OF GOD.
as it is written in
James 1:22-25
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed

Contrary to what you said; I'm not stating anything surreptitiously. Dictionary meaning of surreptitiously: in a way that attempts to avoid notice or attention;
Actually, I'm shouting Jesus/God's message from scripture: from the rooftops for all to hear!
Yes, I try to follow Jesus/God's directives, including the commands to follow God's commandments and repent from sin that come straight from the bible scripture.
Matthew 19:17
"And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments."
Jesus tells us above if we want to enter into life - keep the commandments.
Jesus tells us again here: Revelation 22:14"Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city."
Do you want to have the right to the tree of life, and enter through the gates into the city? If you do, you will follow God's/Jesus commandments.
Jesus/God shines the light for all to see, all we have to do is believe, have FAITH and apply his commands to our lives and He will live in us, and us in Him!
GBU
-But after coming at the cross The Man is able to instruct the soul and say Bless the Lord ooh my soul. and No longer does anything to please himself but he lives to glorify the Lord God.His soul no longer drives him But he is in control.
it is written in Proverbs 20:28
28.Mercy and truth preserve the king:
And his throne is upholden by mercy.
-What I am pointing out to you is this
The soul can make one Love or Live right before men, while before God the Living God who made the heavens we are sinning thinking we are right with Him.
Remember even the thief who steals and murder says he is a good person who is able to love and live well, moreover during burial no one stands and says this dead person was a sinner but you will hear he is a good person.
-For all are in the soulish and not in the spirit
Bear this in mind as it is written in John 4:23-24
23.But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24.God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
And if one has repented of his sins at the cross in Jesus Christ the Son of the living God, Instead of doing everything to please himself. he lives to glorify God whether he eat or drink all he does is in the glory of God.
as it is written in 1 Corinthians 10:31
31.Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
Therefore Worship God in Spirit and Let God lead you He knows how, He will teach you if you ask by prayer God is faithful.
Remember
it is written in romans 8:14
14.For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
- Let us hear the conclusion of this matter
Yes we see people love in the soulish in fact people marry for long years but the marriages are either very shaky and majority end up in divorce
we see father loving their kids and mothers loving their kids and the kids likewise love their parents and at the end there is not true compassion and the love is a love of gain.

Hi, Sorry I took longer answering,
Before we continue I thank God for giving us this moment, I believe Jesus Christ is the son of the Living God and He died on the cross for my sins and He rose on the third day and He is sitting on the right Hand of Power Amen.
The Bible the True word of God which can not be broken
as it is written in JOHN 10:35
35.If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
-Points out to us that the Brutish man knowns not the things of God, for he is in the soulish so does a fool. Remember the fool, he has said in his heart that there is no God.and we Christians, this are the people who have came at the cross and have repented of their sins before the THE LORD JESUS Christ THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD. know very well that the Heavens declare The glory of GOD.
as it is written in plasm 19:1-2
1.The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2.Day unto day uttereth speech,
And night unto night sheweth knowledge. 3There is no speech nor language,
Where their voice is not heard.
The Soulish Level.
When one runs on the soulish level, He does things to please himself, for example( ABCD People LGBT) their love is on this level of the soulish they are doing what gives them pleasure.
-Yet they claim this is Love according to them But we Know in The scripture THE Bible, The Lord God who made the heavens This is sin and an abomination Before Him
(plasm 96:4, KJV-GOD who made the heavens)
another example is this
-The dictator who runs a nation in fear and fist, and the power is for his family all the wealth goes to his accounts and the people running his empire and still he loves his family so much but he oppresses his subjects.
Yet we know he has no mercy neither truth with him and within him.

Again,
t wasn't a light things in Paul's day to be a Christian, one could experience the things that Saul did to Christians, before he became Paul.
The persecution separated the chaff, from the wheat.,
the Way became to straight & narrow for most. Matt 7:14
God is not bound to anything, not the traditions of men or the devices of the world and its point of view. But he remains sovereign, throughout it all, and for all eternity. We are the subjects who are bound to one form or another, always shrinking away from our faith, being persuaded, that the ordinances are better and needed to know Christ. Whereas in fact they show but a little faith in that in and of itself will lead to death if not through Christ purposed to his Glory.
Consider the centurion man who was not a believer, but had good works, yet the lord headed his request which was that he's slave may be healed. The Lord moves as he wishes, as he wills it to be.
The unbelieving Samaritan was shown as a believer by how he acted and not by what he was seen to be which was a gentile. But by God's grace, thus acting upon his life, revealing to us who he truly was in Christ; he's God given nature, to care for his neighbour, which was placed upon his heart. This new nature compels him to love his neighbour and care about him. To seek to learn that good which we did not know before, in the hope of our Lord Jesus Christ, whom we believe.
Amen
Eph 4.17-32
.." 17 Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. 18 They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart. 19 They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. 20 But that is not the way you learned Christ!- 21 assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, 22 to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, 23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your mind... "
it wasn't a light things in Paul's day to be a Christian, one could experience the things that Saul did to Christians, before he became Paul.
you stated:
We are to judge those who are inside. Why? Because those inside the church who are involved in sin, they must be dealt with in order that they might repent."detailing a person who has not yet repented"
Paul's speaking about being a member of the body of Christ here, how can one be in the church, & has not yet repented?
a quote from William Penn
Sin is of one nature the world over. For though a liar is not a drunkard,
nor a swearer a whoremonger, nor either properly a murderer, yet they are
all of one church; all branches of the one wicked root, all of kin. They have
but one father, the devil, as Christ said to the professing Jews, the visible
church of that age. He slighted their claims to Abraham and Moses, and
plainly told them that "everyone who sins is a slave to sin" ( John 8:34).
The Jewish religious leaders did the devil's work, and therefore were the
devil's children. The argument will always hold upon the same reasons, for
as Paul said: you are slaves to the one whom you obey, ( Rom 6:16); and
said John to the church of old, "Let no man deceive you; he that commits
sin is of the devil" ( 1 John 3:7-8). Was Judas ever the better Christian for
crying, "Hail, Master," and kissing Christ? By no means; they were the
signal of his treachery; the signs given so the bloody Jews could identify
Him and arrest Him. Judas called Him Master, but betrayed Him;
he kissed, but sold Him to be killed; the same is the result of the
false Christian's religion.
how many who would call themselve Christian's today, members of His Body, fall underneath this judgment & be put away because of their continuing in sin?
society today is a direct reflection of the state of this false church of Rev 17 preaching you can be a Christian & yet continue in sin. Mark 7:7 Titus 1:11
in love & truth Rev 18:4
Good to hear from you once again.
Thanks for returning and participating in our conversations.
Jesse answered you well. We are to take disciplinary measures to those within the church and we let the civil laws take care of those without the church.
Even so, like John the Baptist did to Herod and the Jewish leaders and also Jesus did to the Jewish leaders, we are to speak up for what is right and godly and call what is wicked sinful and against God who made us. We should call those outside the church to repent of their sinful lives and believe the gospel of Jesus. We are to also work in our communities and our civil rights to improve the culture of our neighborhood, city, and country. We are to work to alleviate want and suffering of others around us and stand up for those who are oppressed and mistreated. We are to speak against the things that lead to moral decay and protect our children from bad influences. We are to use our time wisely to fight against the evil of this world as the Spirit lead us to do. We can warn others about the reality of eternity in hell if they remain disobedient and in unbelief and certainly herald the freedom we have in Christ due to the redemptive work He has done for us knowing that our eternity will be spent with Jesus in perfect peace, love, harmony and goodness.
But final judgment of any person is up to the Lord. We can judge actions as being good or evil, righteous or sinful, God pleasing or offensive to Him. There is nothing said in Scriptures against doing such things for the benefit of others. But our motives and attitudes need to be holy in all things we say and do in regards to the sin in others.
In 1 Corinthians 5:12, as far as evaluation goes, Paul says for what have I to do to judge them also that are outside? Do not you judge them that are within?
1 Corinthians 5:13 is important. This is the evaluation. God judges those who are outside of the church. We are to judge those who are inside. Why? Because those inside the church who are involved in sin, they must be dealt with in order that they might repent.
And Paul says therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person, detailing a person who has not yet repented.
Hope this helps?
I've addressed your commenters, than your particular question, please forgive me
As I consider your comment,
You stated, that you are saved, & yet it appears that you don't know God's Voice.
Friend,,,,Its impossible for one to be saved & not know His Voice.for how could He lead you out of darkness into His marvelous light without learning to know His Voice in the working out of your salvation ?
John 10:3,4
You stated, that you believe that you still need to do what is right to get to heaven, this is very true, God has place this within your heart, never let that go.
You stated, don't we need to obey the ten commandment? This would be a good start & yet the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus exceeds the law of Moses. Matt 5:20-48
You stated, I get so confused listening to different people preach, how do you know which one is right?
Jesus said, John 18:37 Love the TRUTH, & you will learn His Voice, the still small Voice of conscience that accuses you when you do something wrong or excuses you when you do something right Rom 2:15
This Treasure we have in our earthen vessel 2Cor 4:6, The Light of His Spirit, seek Him there
in love & truth
The way I interpret your question is how much must I obey God to get into heaven? What is the bare minimum?
Because some feel inconvenienced to follow Jesus- whether embarrassment or other excuses. And do you have to obey the 10 commandments or any of the other commandments in the Bible? You already know what God says- He called them "commandments" for a reason, but some want to be comforted and hear that you can do whatever you want, whatever feels good, in this world and be ok? If that the hope, that's Satan's message.
It looks like this has received a lot of comments. Some are pushing false teachings which should be called out. It doesn't matter what man says, but what God says, right? Isn't it better to please God than please man?
"But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." James 1:22 KJV
This clearly says to be a doer of the Word. It's not enough to just hear it and do nothing. Christianity is an action. I don't see anywhere in the Bible saying you're saved on earth before you're even judged. Please share verses that back that up, because I haven't seen any. I see verses saying you can have assurance of salvation. There's verses saying we will be saved, but it doesn't say right now before our life is even over- I believe that's the assumed part that deviates from scripture.
"But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven." Matthew 10:33
Baptism:
"He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned." Mark 16:16
I think its risky to intentionally disobey Jesus, then expect all the benefits.
"And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" Luke 6:46
If you don't obey, why even call him Lord? You're not even a follower. This is my interpretation of what Jesus is saying here.
Matthew 7:24-27 - Jesus's point of this parable is obeying Him. "doing" "doeth"
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
Does this mean that Christians should judge Christians and not waste their breath on the infidels???
We can do nothing against Truth,except by the Truth.The Devil said to JESUS:"It is written-Ps.91:11-He shall give his angels charge concerning thee:and in their hands they shall bear thee up..."JESUS said to the Devil:But it is also written,Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy GOD
You are surreptitiously saying that the Christians"have to follow God's/Jesus Commandments".Many of the Church of Galatians said the same you are saying.
Then the Apostle Paul said unto them:"Gal.3:1-2&7-14KJV,and4:1
1O foolish Galatians,who hath bewitched you,that ye should not obey the Truth,before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been set forth,crucified among you?
2This only would I learn of you,Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law,OR by the hearing of faith?
8Scripture,foreseeing that GOD would justify the heathen through faith,preached before the GOSPEL(not the Law)unto Abraham, saying,In thee shall all nations be blessed
7Know ye therefore that they which are of faith,the same are the children of Abraham
9So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham
11 No man is justified by the Law in the sight of GOD:for,The just shall live by faith
10 As many as are of the works of the Law are UNDERS the CURSE.(GOD forbiden)
13 Christ has redeemed us from the CURSE of the Law, being made a curse for us: ...
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the GENTILES through Jesus Christ;that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith
Ch. 4:21-22KJV
21Tell me,ye that desire to be under the Law,do ye not hear the law?
22 It is written,that Abraham had two sons,one by a bondmaid,the other by a freewoman;
23 He who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh;but he of the freewoman was by promise
24 Which things are an allegory:for these are the TWO covenants; the one from the mount Sinai(the Law),which gendereth to bondage,which is Agar
25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia,and answereth to Jerusalem which now is,and is in bondage with her children
