No scripture of itself interprets scripture, it takes other scriptures combined together to interpret truth.
1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God CANNOT commit sin, for his SEED (GOD) remaineth in him, and he CANNOT SIN because he is born of God.
Ezekiel 36:27 And I will put my Spirit (God is Spirit) in YOU and CAUSE you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgements and DO them.
The kingdom of God only COMES to you if you believe what the word says.
Matthew 12:28 But if I (the Spirit of TRUTH) cast out devils (the spirit of deception) by the Spirit of God, then the Kingdom of God has COME unto you.
Was Paul saying something different; or, was he agreeing agreeing that is GOD IN YOU; HIS flesh and bone, that keeps you from sinning and not of yourself (your DEAD) only a NEW CREATION exist.
When you BELIEVE you are going to keep sinning in this life, then your going to keep sinning.
Matthew 8:13 .... and as thou hast BELIEVE, so be it done unto you ........
Do you BELIEVE you are a NEW CREATION, the flesh and bone OF CHRIST?
John 17:22 And the glory that thou has given me, I have GIVEN them, that they may be ONE as we are ONE.
If you don't believe that scripture, then the Kingdom of God has not YET COME to you.
What does it mean to be born again? Good question ....As Peter says being bornagain of an incorruptible seed even by the word of God that liveth and abideth for ever.....meaning by the living word which is spirit.....My Words are spirit and life....The Woman in Rev.12 :5 is the best example of being bornagain....And she is giving birth to a baby Christ thats y Jesus said unless you receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in....Plz note Rev.12:10....No Kingdom or any kind of Salvation comes till the woman gives birth to the Child which is the H.G. the Child of Promise.....Jesus plainly tells us That Which is born of the spirit is spirit which is the H.G. that is born in us via his spirit his living word.....Thats y he has to know us....So that his good seed might be sown in our hearts and minds producting a baby Christ.....The wheat is a baby Christ simply b/c the sower of that good seed is Christ the bridegroom.....Even in the natural a BIRTH IS ALWAYS INDICATIVE OF A CHILD.....As we have borne the image of the earthy our 1 st birth we must also birth the image of the Heavenly a spiritul Child the H.G. that Child of Promise.....Thats y Jesus always refers to himself as the SON OF MAN.....Mankind needs to birth a baby Christ in our hearts and minds....That New CREATURE.....Our new hearts n new spirits
Gal. 4 :19....My lil Children of whom i travail in birth till Christ is formed in you.....Nothin availeth any thing in Christ Jesus but a New Creature which is the H.G. that Child of Promise....Thats y the woman is giving birth to the baby the manchild that is gona rule all nations.....Which is that spirit of truth that is gona reprove this world of sin and righteousness and Judgement....But this baby Spirit has to be born in us via his good seed the living word....Thats y he is saying that which is born of the spirit is spirit which is the H.G. that Child of Promise....But he is just an infant that cannot speak of himself..GB
In order to understand the verses you cite regarding the Nature of Salvation properly, we must understand that God created mankind with both a BODY and a SOUL. And that when we become BORN AGAIN, this happens in our SOUL. That is, God gives us a new Resurrected SOUL. And this SOUL is what cannot, in itself, sin ( 1 John 3:9) and will never die. Once God has performed this miracle in our life we have become a "new creature in Christ..." 2 Corinthians 5:17. But this Resurrected SOUL now resides in a BODY that has not yet undergone any change and still lusts after sin and is still subject to physical death. And although our personality is greatly changed in our attitude toward the Bible and hatred for sin in our life, we do still sin and will until God completes our salvation at the Last Day.
Our salvation will not be fully completed until the Last Day when we will receive our Resurrected Spiritual Body and we "shall be like Him" 1 John 3:2.
Yes Mr. Landry. The SOUL that sineth it shall die.
So let me ask you, did the Apostle Paul commit any sin after He was "saved" on the Road to Damascus? Did his BODY die and was buried? Do True Believers die today and their bodies not be buried and decay?
More personally, do you believe that should Christ delay His return for another 100 years, will you still be alive in your current physical body?
Perhaps you could more clearly explain your understanding of the following:
Do you ever commit any sin of any kind?
What does it mean to be "BORN AGAIN"?
Where today is the Apostle Paul living and in what form?
Do you believe that God created all mankind with both a BODY and a SOUL? If not, what then?
I am going to let the word of God answer the questions you ask.
You ask: Did the apostle Paul commit sin after he was saved.
1 John 3:9 Whosoever is BORN of GOD doeth not commit sin, for his (GOD'S) SEED remaineth in him: and he CANNOT sin because he is BORN of God.
You ask: in 100 years will I be alive in physical body? YES!
John 11:26 Whosoever liveth and believeth in me (the SEED) shall NEVER DIE, believest thou this?
Luke 20:36 Neither can they (the SEED) DIE ANYMORE (they died with Christ on the cross): for they are EQUAL unto the ANGELS (angles have Christ's resurrected body); and are the children (SONS, like Christ) of God, being the children (SEED) of the resurrection.
1 Corinthians 15:38 But God giveth it (Christ's SEED) a body as it has pleased him, to every SEED his (Christ's) OWN BODY.
You ask: do I every commit sin. NO!
Galatians 2:20 .....I am DEAD, nonetheless I LIVE, YET NOT I, but Christ LIVETH IN ME .... ALL creation DIED on the cross ....ONLY ONE SEED (Christ) arose ....
You ask: What does it mean to be born again.
To believe the WORD's Of GOD.
You can not be BORN again until you BELIEVE YOUR DEAD, only Christ is alive.
You ask: Where is Paul living and in what form:
Luke 20:36 ...EQUAL to the angles .... the IMAGE of CHRIST ...... Christ is the ANGEL of GOD ......
Isaiah 63:8 .... and the ANGEL of his (God's) presence SAVED them ..... Paul is living IN and BY the presence of Christ, in the body of Christ ...
Colossians 1:27 ..... this mystery ..... Christ in you .....
1 Corinthians 12:27 ... ye are the BODY of Christ ....
I don't think you totally understand the Kingdom of God.
You don't exist; you DIED on the cross, Christ ONLY arose.
Galatians 2:20 I am (was) CRUCIFIED with Christ, nevertheless I LIVE, YET NO I, but CHRIST IN ME ..... the NEW CREATION .....
Psalms 116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the DEATH of his saints (SEED).
Abraham was PROMISED a SEED, only ONE SEED, the promised SEED ---- CHRIST ----
CHRIST, the promised SEED AROSE, all creation were joint heirs of that resurrection, making them the SEED of Christ.
There is ONLY ONE SEED
Isaiah 59:21 .... this is my covenant with them (Christ's SEED) , My Spirit that is upon thee (Christ), and the words that are in thy (Christ's) mouth, shall not depart out of thy (Christ's) mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy (Christ's) SEED, nor out of the mouth of thy (Christ's) SEED'S SEED, from henceforth and forever
1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God CANNOT commit sin, for his SEED (GOD) remaineth in him, and he CANNOT SIN because he is born of God.
Ezekiel 36:27 And I will put my Spirit (God is Spirit) in YOU and CAUSE you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgements and DO them.
