    Paul's Defense of The Faith(Gospel): Justification By Grace Through Faith Apart From The Works Of The Law Of Moses

    Titus 2:1, - but speak thou(Titus) the things which become sound doctrine Paul's teaching in this article is Galatians 4:21-31 known as Paul's allegory. Paul references these old testament verses in Galatians 4:21-31: Genesis 16:1-18 ; 21:1-21 ; 22:1-19 ; Isaiah 54:1 The purpose of this...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Yes and true faith in Jesus will do His works, which are His commandments. Saving faith is the faith that works the new testament commandments of God, 2Thessalonians 1:8, - in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that no not God and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Romans 11:6, 7 - and if by Grace then it is no more of works(law of Moses) otherwise grace is no more grace but if it be of works then is it no more grace otherwise work is no more work - What then  Israel hath not obtained that which he speaketh for but the election hath obtained it and the...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Sir, you have wrongly divided the Scriptures. Faith itself is a work, John 6:28-29

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Works in Romans is the law of Moses. Old testament law keeping absolutely cancels grace if you are trying to keep it during the new covenant of Jesus Christ. Context determines what Paul means when he uses the word works.

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    God saves the same way with all of mankind. Man cannot save himself apart from Grace. If your teaching is Scripturally correct then all the Jews that died before Christ are lost. They all died under the Mosaical law. You teach no grace under the old covenant. How can anyone go to heaven if Gods...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Good works do not cancel out Gods grace. The good works we do is IN Gods grace. Gods grace instructs us to do good works. We are only saved when our sins are covered by Gods grace. Disobeying God with no intention of repenting, leaves us seperated from Gods grace, Titus 2:11-12, - for the...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    This subject is not open for debate. We know the apostle James was dead and when he died. We know who Paul was referring to because the brother of Jesus was one of the main men that worked diligently in the Jerusalem church. He is spoken of in Acts 15. James is referred to as a pillar of the...

    Jesus warned that the world would hate us - And for good reason

    A plurality of elders in every local church, yes. New testament church is not allowed by Gods commandments to have a one man bishop, elder. Must be at minimum two in every local church. Not one passage in the new testament teaches elders were instructed to keep a limited amount of brethren in...

    Where did we get The Bible? - A IN-DEPTH STUDY

    You have given zero Scriptural evidence the apocrypha is Inspired. Your church even denies some of its books are inspired. It's hard for me to believe you really believe what you are debating. Its possible you are only working to gain members for your theocracy.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Give Scripture. I already showed you James the apostle was dead when Paul wrote his letter to the Galatians. The very first chapter Paul says James is the Lords brother. Galatians 1:19, - but other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lords brother

    Biblical Saving Faith: The word Defines It For Us

    Faith saves. Grace saves. How does God teach us that both must be present in order to be cleansed by the blood of Christ? What sayeth the Scriptures? Biblical Faith is confidence in spiritual things based upon the evidence, Hebrews 11:1 John 3:16, - for God so loved the world that He gave...

    Crucifixion Question

    Luke doesn't say he was only one. Luke 23:39-43, - and  one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on Jesus saying, if thou be the Christ save thyself and us But the other(the thief who repented) answering rebuked him saying, Dost thou not fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation...

    Crucifixion Question

    That's right, we aren't told he was baptized. We also aren't told he was not yet you speculate he wasnt. Did the thief hang on the cross His entire life? We don't know anything about his life before the cross. All we know is he was a thief and the Romans chose to punish him for it with...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Jews and gentiles are both saved in the body of Christ. I dont know if you read all of my posts but those verses were already explained by me. None of the verses you used teach prominence among the apostles. I would appreciate you including book chapter and verse to avoid confusion. I just...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Thanks, Jesus died for His church. So the body of Christ is the church in Acts 2:47 as Jesus is dead and ressurected having left earth now in heaven, when those that were being saved were added to the church in Acts 2:47. Colossians 3:18, - and Jesus is the Head of the body the church who is...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    I'm sorry but I'm confused I guess? Not sure which church you believe Acts 2:47 is? The church of the wilderness or the church of Christ?
