And thus all who do ...............BELIEVE THIS shall be saved . Dont expect me to say the same thing for those who beleive not and deny Him .
Cause POPE francis is wrong . I say YE MUST BELIEVE IN JESUS TO BE SAVED
POPEY says it dont matter , so long as ye have lovey lovey and do good works . Now one of us is wrong
I pray and hope folks figure out which one it is that is wrong . cause me and popey cant both be right .
ONE of us is right the other is wrong . NOW to find out who is right and who is wrong
I POINT US TO THE BIBLE . What JESUS said himself , what john would later echo and others would .
ME , I STICK TO BELIEVE IN JESUS , CONFESS HIM BY MOUTH and BELIEVE FROM THE HEART that GOD has rose HIM from the dead and
you will be saved . OR you can risk believing in what pope francis says and about almost seventy percent of even the protestant realm
THAT GOD IS FINE WITH ALL PATHS , THAT JESUS DOES NOT have to BE BELIEVED IN , and that all you need to do is have you some good works and lovey lovey and ye shall be saved . AS FOR ME . YEAH I STICK TO WHAT JESUS said .
Now tell me , who is right , ME or pope francis . Ponder pray and read that bible well , before you answer .
“And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”
‭‭Acts‬ ‭16:31‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Straight from the bible.
As brother @amigo de christo says, the pope goes against the bible, saying everyone is saved.

From the cross when Jesus cried "tetelestai" paid in full! Th efinished work of Christ refers tro the fact that every sin was paid for. NOthing more can be added to or taken away from teh price Jesus paid on teh cross to pay the penalty for sin.

care to explain

Colossians 1:24
Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:

and

Phil 1:29

29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

John 19:30 - So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.

I believe Jesus.

I believe Jesus.
And I believe what the book of Hebrews says.
You apparently don't

Good bye my friends . I will never compromise nor sit at the table of the CC and this all inclusive gospel .
I care not what this costs me . I care only for the people . Be encouraged everyone . THE LORD is with the true lambs .

that not the church but a counterfeit of see Christ’s prophecy

Matt 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

As usual this is total BS from DOAN. No Christian is free to sin with impunity.

When Christ said "It is finished" He proclaimed victoriously that His redemptive work on the cross was finished. He paid the full penalty for the sins of the whole world through (a) His indescribable sufferings, (b) His shed blood, and (c) His sacrificial death as the Lamb of God who took away the sin of the world. So this was indeed the finished work of Christ and there was nothing left to be completed (other than His resurrection).

Here is what Christ said about the "work" that He was sent to do: Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. (Jn 4:34) I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. (John 17:4) [Note: Here Christ anticipated what He would accomplish on the 14th of Nisan, AD 30.]

Not only was the redemptive work of Christ finished, but the Old Covenant came to an end the the New Covenant in the blood of Christ was established on that day. Therefore the veil in the temple which separated the Holy of Holies from the Holy Place was supernaturally torn from top to both, thus signifying that the way into the heavenly Sanctuary had been opened by Christ.

why do we still have sin?
And the sin nature?
Why were we not restored to state we had before the fall!

Everything that exposes the lies of the Enemy is "an opinion" according to you. But THE TRUTH WILL PREVAIL.

why does scripture say something is lacking in the sufferings of Christ?

Colossians 1:24
Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:

and

Phil 1:29

29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

what is lacking?

our participation!

Luke 9:23
And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

You are describing what you do.
So, that is not what Christ did as His Finished Work.
Christ's finished work, was His shed blood and death on the Cross.
This is why Jesus told YOU from the Cross,..."it is finished".
What is?
= "Salvation".

And because Salvation is finished.....God said THIS : John 3:16

It the Bible does not say what it is!
But let’s see Christ is high priest and the high has to say something at the consummation of the Passover, care to guess?

“it is finished”!!!!

More scripture

Jn 1:29 the lamb of God!

Passover?

1 Corinthians 5:6-8
Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

passover????????????

Amen! Christ’s finished work of redemption is sufficient and complete to saves believers. (Romans 3:24-28) No supplements needed.

only the question of how is it applied to our souls?
Answer;
The sacraments!!!

Jn 14:6

6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
What JESUS has said , all things HE did teach and say are what a lamb does beleive , heed and follows His voice .
Thee faith . JESUS told even the jews , YE will die in your sins IF , IF you DO NOT BELIEVE that I AM HE .
the MESSIAH the SAVOIR .
Thus the lie spread by the vatican and these popes must be exposed .
We cannot let one foot be taken in this web of deciet which is giving false hope unto false religions
by saying they serve the same GOD we do .
IF JESUS even told the jews , WHO DID NOT BELIEVE ON HIM , they were of their father the devil
and that if they truly had loved GOD they would have loved HIM , WE cannot entertain this fast growing lie
that pope francis nor more and more protestants are now believing and teaching .
The solution for Salvation , IS TO BELIEVE ON JESUS , to CONFESS HIM BY MOUTH and beleive
from the heart that GOD has rose HIM from the dead .
And true believers are HEARERS and DOERS of all things JESUS said and taught . OF all things HE commanded .
GO YE INTO THE WORLD , baptizing them in the name of the Father , Son , Holy Ghost
and teaching them to observe , ALL THINGS I have taught you . THAT IS THE COMISSION and it is TRUTH .
WE must not sit at this table of unity which leadeth unto death . WE must POINT ONLY TO CHRIST
GOD has chosen how to save the world . And man cannot undo how GOD has chosen to save this world .
YE MUST believe IN CHRIST JESUS and lambs shall be and are hearers and doers of ALL things he taught .
As well as the true apostels who had the SPIRIT .

It’s you who explains away the truth in order to accommodate Roman Catholic doctrine.
Many do that very thing . I see this even over many protestants.
They use lots of words claiming they have the right greek understanding ,
and claim high scholarly wisdom . YET for a lamb its plain to see that they are simply TWISTING the doctrine
to FIT their own teaching of what THEY do believe . Thus they cliam IT means this or that . And cannot simply read its simple message .
This goes on a lot all over the place .
But the lambs do not heed the ever wise and clever tactics of men , lambs heed The voice of the Great shepard
who by the Spirit does guide us into truth and far from lies . Direct but very true this is .

and now a word . This is the religoin of the beast that will lead all religons to come together and to sit
as one mind and one heart to do both the will and the desire of the beast .
Many are falling and many more shall fall for this lie . Which points not to CHRIST but unto anti christ .
HE who has not the SON has not life . HE who does not believe in CHRIST has made GOD a liar .
John even says this is an anti christ . That he believes not the testimony , the record that GOD HIMSELF gave of the Son .
THIS is the love god and his doing . Notice that god was not capitalized . For it is the god called satan
who has always desired to be as GOD and to be worshipped as GOD .
And this religion of false love , WELL its a religion of a lie . For it denies the very fact
that this other religions must repent and believe in Christ to be saved . Only satan would call that love . for its end is death j.

OK, you are going to ignore my posts which have biblical support in favour of your own opinion which has zero biblical support.

Through faith, not the sacraments. (Romans 3:24-28; 4:5-6; 5:1,2)

faith and baptism according to none other than Christ Himself
Mk 16:16 he who believes and is baptized
Jn 3;5 baptism
Ez 36:25-27 baptism with a new heart to love and the spirit

Nothing is lacking. Just as Jesus told Saul that Saul was persecuting Him (when in fact he was persecuting the Church) the sufferings of the Church are a part of the sufferings of Christ. And the sufferings of Paul were included in that. This corresponds to the fact that Christians must suffer on earth.
