not robots.
let me explain:
adam did everything without effort/thought before his 'awakening/consciousness'. he was unaware he was naked -meaning without covering. This covering is the Anointing/Grace.
what we do with such strenuous effort today -thinking/reasoning/etc was automatic for him. He was beyond consciousness.
i wrote a piece on it, using sleep as an example.
when you rest, you are 'unconscious' yet you breathe, your mind still operates, yet you are unaware of it.
elijah's ability to run faster than a chariot, Y`shua rising from the dead, healing of the sick by just a mere passing of a shadow.
all defy consciousness/logic/reason as we know it.
so it was something else Adam had apart from thought that he lived by. Same as children who have no distinct thought processes, but still do -without fear or concern.
we already know the difference which is why there is such conflict with each person. So if we put off logic/reason and put on righteousness/grace, we would be as Adam was, one with Him.
If you still think all you have to be is "good" to enter the pearly gates than you have another thing coming
Most important:
we must understand this: what is sin?
but an awareness/consciousness/acceptance and practice apart from what the Creator designed us to be. (aka rebellion).
Idolatry, Murder, adultery, vanity etc are merely bi-products of sin. The root of salvation is exactly why Y`shua came, spoke, healed, suffered, died, descended, arose, walked among us and was lifted up. To show us -first hand- that which we were made to be. To remind us of who we are in Him. Not to condemn us all to hell but to show us the whole entire point: was to restore us to His image and likeness.
this IS salvation!
anything else is darkness, sin conscious, foolishness.
God has spoken!
This sounds like someone talking through an ego the size of a small planet!
There you are!

Yep! I am having a bit of trouble understanding if some religionists can walk and chew at the same time!
I have heard some crazy things in my life, but the religious forums take the prize!
I had a hard day yesterday. wrote a hub about it. I shouldn't even say it that way. I am not sleeping because I wrote a hub... All the fun we had yesterday. I want to post it everywhere. I think we have no right to talk about salvation until we address this issue. It is too big. These forums, I tried to ask for help and I got a few... I even posted my own question and no one came in.
Glad you showed up.
ha! straight from a former religionist's mouth. well done Ernest.
Hi Earnest! We just haven't figured out what type of colloquial english to use towards the Homo Erectus. LOL!

I am a staunch Christian and have met and talked with many a born again Christian. I had no nerve to ask them to their face if they continued sinning. Very forgettable and forgivable sins like say, a little gluttony: one little bite off that Black Forest you love. Is it still sin in their eyes?Can...

There is no option to the Christian life, but that of carrying the cross. Jesus said: 'If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.' Matt 16:24. Paul said, 'I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I love; yet not I, but Christ lives in me.' Gal 2:20....

There are a lot of people who call themselves Christians, but from a simple reading of John chapter 3 we find that the Lord Jesus said emphatically: 'You MUST be born again!' John 3.7.I am a born-again Christian, born again about 20 years ago. I have the assurance that my sins are forgiven; and I...

What Does Being Born Again Mean In Christianity?
by Naomi's Banner 12 years ago
He came to earth a mere mortal to sacrifice Himself shedding His blood for our Salvation. No one comes to the Father except through Jesus Christ. You must be born again.
