Ok. If we are committing an unrighteous work of the flesh, are we a saved son of God, or a condemned sinner of the world doing the same thing?

What are you depending upon for your salvation? Your own good works? This explains a lot of your error and constant nastiness against fellow posters. Every single cult adds unto salvation by grace though faith. Christians are justified by what Christ has done not what they have done.

Thought so. OSAS.
Why can't people just be honest about what they believe, rather than masking it in a bunch of doctrine-speak?
And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge...
Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
I am in the Christian cult of the apostles.
Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
OSAS faith alone is as empty as spirit-only reigning. It's all air and no substance.
I have never advocated OSAS. You are the only one who is obsessed with this label. I believe in the perseverance of the saints. You have no answer for that. Your salvation theology is based upon yourself. The house built upon sand falls down. Most of us on here have built our foundation upon Christ - the Rock.

It's just a general term for modern Christians, that promise liberty with ongoing works of the flesh.
Nothing new really, just the same old same old.
I see the same enraged fervor against works, unless they're works of the flesh of course. Those are ok. It's just the righteous ones that get them in a fitful tizzy.
And so, pseudo spirit-only millennialism is just another way to doctrinize themselves into heaven now, and so of course forever.
They doctrinally walk after the spirit in heaven, and literally walk after the flesh on earth.
Spirit-only is just another version of faith-only: imaginary and dead.

Your MO is to avoid the evidence that exposes your error and run your mouth off. You have nothing to bring to the table apart from avoidance and ad hominem. There is a mountain of truth on this forum that has exposed your claims that you have ducked around. You are clearly out of your depth.

All you have is lies and insults. Why do you not address all the questions Amils ask you that destroy your error? Because, to do so would mean you would have to reject Premil.
Op Note
Anyone who has engaged with most modern online Preterists will notice that they never want to talk about the literal physical future return of Jesus. In fact, they never want to talk about the earthly victorious life of Christ, the cross and the resurrection. They do not want to talk about Pentecost. They are totally fixated with the coming of Titus and AD70. That is all they want to talk about. That is all they see in Scripture.
While most older Partial Preterist are different, and typically orthodox, the modern breed are often heretical. They deny a literal physical visible future return of Christ. The second coming to them is either past or it is our entry into the presence of God upon death. This is unbiblical, heretical and absurd.
The fact is, we are not called today to keep our eyes upon the punishment of apostate Israel back 2000 years ago, we are called to watch and be ready for the glorious climatic return of the Lord Jesus Christ. That is the "blessed hope" (Titus 2:13) of the redeemed. We are not under judgment. We are not facing judgment. We are facing eternal bliss.
