hello, Dr. Tim! I've read your book, The God-shaped brain. As a distressed 16-year-old who had a slew of questions about the Bible and God's wrath, it was a life-changing book for me. It changed the way I viewed God and his principles. I could finally feel His love in my life. I can't be more grateful for it. Later, I read The God-shaped Heart (and the Aging brain as well) and it truly healed me. Thank you so much!! And may God bless you!
If Jesus died to pay a penalty a legal debt owed ...to whom did Jesus pay the penalty to? I heard pastor Finley, who baptized me in Chicago in 1983 say recently on TH-cam, "the debt was paid to the universe." This makes absolutely no sense to me. Thank God I can see past the penal legal lies that many good people still teach and believe. Design law truly clarifies and crystalizes God's character as LOVE. Without design law the Bible becomes a series of square pegs trying to fit into round holes. "The truth shall set you free." John 8:32 Thank you for another thought-provoking, faith-inspiring discussion.
The scripture that is a bridge to my mind for realizing and embracing the truth of Dr. Jennings teaching of The Gospel is ' the life of the flesh is in the blood', without that our body uniform leaves us naked, which is what we are when we go to sleep waiting for ressurection!!! I pray we will have our refuge in Christ constantly and we have the spirit of life in Christ Jesus and we have the mind of Christ! Christ Jesus gave His life for us as He loves us and is the best!
I see that gods anger is aimed towards the instigator of the lie that caused adam and eve to fall out of gods grace. Just as a parents anger towards a mutilator of their children would be aimed at the instigator. Their love of the mutilated child now bearing the scars and ongoing sin and shame has not changed, and if it has changed then it shows just how far away from god we actually are.
When we are baptized with the Holy Spirit we will then be in the same condition as Jesus was when he was born right? In sinful human flesh but also with the Holy Spirit (God) as our father so we can now choose not to sin but to love and trust Him.
This isn't Dr J replying-- just wanted to let you know up front. I believe our condition is different because we have a history, a lived life in sin--whereas Jesus was tempted but never sinned. We can look to the book of Romans for Paul's experience once he was born in the spirit yet still battled his 'old man' from his past choices.
No, as long as I live on this God created world I will always be a sinner only saved by the grace of a god who made a way through his death on the cross for us to hide our lives in christ. The new life of faith is a life of hanging on to our savior, and not letting him go. We all have a daily choice to make ,life or death. Life eternal with him,or death eternal without him. 44:34
Beloved, Yes, in the same condition, except for our unrighteous habits to overcome: 1John 5:4 For whoever is born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith. RevElation 14:12 HERE is the patient endurance of the saints who KEEP The Commandments of God AND the Faith of Jesus. John 14:15 If you love Me, KEEP My Commandments. Romans 12:21 Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. According to the Holy Bible: -------------------------------------------- We're BORN sinners: Psalm 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity, in sin did my mother conceive me. UNTIL we allow the Holy Spirit to write God's Law CONTAINING Ten Commandments on our heart: Hebrews 10:16 This is the covenant of promise: I will put My Ten Laws in their hearts and write them on their minds. (Hebrews 8:10) Empowered by GOD'S GRACE (Romans 1:5) Accelerated by our Faith-Love-Trust, () Called the SECOND BIRTH (John 3:3) THEN we are no longer practicing sinners, but are called saints, overcomers, righteous: Isaiah 51:7 Listen to Me, you who know Righteousness, My people in whose heart is MY LAW... RevElation 22:14 Blessed are they who DO HIS COMMANDMENTS John 15:10 ...I have KEPT My Father's Commandments, and abide in His love.
Salvation of our character is while we are alive. Salvation of our body is with a resurrection - which requires death. BTW: There is no such thing as a human being without a body... 1Cor. 15:22 We are all terminal and will die because of the infection of selfishness passed down from Adam, but all who unite with Christ will be cured and made alive! 1Cor. 15:49 And just as we have been formed in the likeness of fallen Adam - with our selfish natures and diseased bodies - so we shall bear the likeness of Christ with perfect bodies and natures of selfless love. John11:25 Jesus said to her, I AM the Resurrection from death and the source of all life. Whoever trusts in Me will be healed and live, even though they fall asleep in death...
Tim - to bring it down to earth : did Jesus had 23 genes from Mary (missing 23 from Holy Spirit )and / or another 23 from Joseph - or all 46 from Holy Spirit ??? my take : all 46 genes were from Hvn...

Salvation of our character is while we are alive.
Salvation of our body is with a resurrection - which requires death.
BTW: There is no such thing as a human being without a body...
1Cor. 15:22 We are all terminal and will die because of the infection
of selfishness passed down from Adam,
but all who unite with Christ will be cured and made alive!
1Cor. 15:49 And just as we have been formed in the likeness of fallen Adam -
with our selfish natures and diseased bodies -
so we shall bear the likeness of Christ with perfect bodies and natures of selfless love.
John11:25 Jesus said to her, I AM the Resurrection from death and the source of all life.
Whoever trusts in Me will be healed and live, even though they fall asleep in death...
Tim - to bring it down to earth : did Jesus had 23 genes from Mary (missing 23 from Holy Spirit )and / or another 23 from Joseph - or all 46 from Holy Spirit ??? my take : all 46 genes were from Hvn...
Tim’s been down to earth the entire time. Theology trumps biology in matters of meaning.

@@Ran-222You hear interesting things! 😆
