What subject would you like to focus on?

You quoted a passage, I commented on that passage . . . let me know what you'd like to discuss.

:)

Much love!
I would like to discuss why OSASers judge NON OSASers as unsaved.

This passage, make your calling and election sure, it doesn't mean make them certain, to become positive that you are called and elected, it means to make your calling and election immovable, stable. Nailed down so it doesn't move.

James speaks in terms of a double minded man, unstable. Paul writes of being blown about by every wind of doctrine.

Much love!

Sounds like you're doing the crying. I'm posting Scripture and you cry.
Me cry? I am not complaining about you judging me, why are you being dishonest?

Can't stop judging OSAS. It's unBiblical. Do you obey Jesus?

Matthew 6:9-12 (NKJV)
9 In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. 10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors.
i I can’t stop judging NOSAS, it’s unbiblical and denies the power of God to not only change people. But to keep them in his hands, and worse of all. Makes God a liar,

Yep. Workout YOUR,

you already possess the salvation your working out

what do we fear? Losing salvation? Is this what the text says?


for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
14 Do all things without complaining and disputing, 15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world


Ahh,so we can be lights in the world, drawing people to Christ, and blameless so our reputation is not stained and we are seen as hypocrites, whch sadly far to many Christians are

nothing here about losing salvation. Nice try though

Can you admit that Jesus believing NON OSASers are saved without believing OSAS? I doubt that you can.
"All who call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved". I don't see much a doctrinal requirement there. I don't see very much there at all!

You have to believe in the One upon Whom you call. I imagine your call must be authentic.

If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved. So here in the NT we've given a bit more meat, Jesus is Lord, and God raised him from the dead.

If you really are prepared to serve Jesus as your Master, and you really believe He is the risen Lord, God says you are His.

Nothing in either of those passages about OSAS, tongues, Trinity, any of those things. I think that having correct understandings on these other doctrines will advance us in our faith. Incorrect understandings about God may take away our peace, may affect our fruitfulness, but at the end of the day, what I think is this.

That God intends for us to be His, and He makes it . . . well, in His words,

Romans 10:5-9 KJV
5) For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
6) But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
7) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
8) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Don't ask, who will go fetch Christ from heaven, Don't ask, who will go bring Christ back from the dead ones, no, the word of faith is right next to you, you don't have to go anywhere, it's right there in your very mouth, ready to be spoken, if you confess with your mouth, believe in your heart.

Much love!

I don't know. How many times do you need to get saved? OSASers are dedicated to judging others. Maybe they need to get "saved" MANY times?

Quote where I judged you. I judge OSAS! Quote where I'm being dishonest. Do you repent for lying?
If you think I am lying report me,

When you judge osas you judge me

I know yu do not repent for lying yu do not even admit your lying

like I said,


I can’t stop going against NOSAS, it’s unbiblical and denies the power of God to not only change people. But to keep them in his hands, and worse of all. Makes God a liar,

So what if you don't "work it out"?

I quote Scripture and you think it's funny?

Scripture funny? Not particularly.
Things YOU say funny/odd. Yes, Regularly.

But since you asked, OSAS is man made, not God's Word.

Precisely OSAS, is an acronym.
OSAS stand for; Once Saved Always Saved.
Yes, a man coined the Phrase.

The Teaching that Once a man has Received Salvation, the man can Never become unSaved IS Scriptural.


But if OSAS is true I can't lose!

Correct, whether or not you know if OSAS is true...If you are Converted, "your salvation is Secure."

However, you are unsure IF OSAS its true, and Yet, you Speak Against OSAS, which makes your speech MAKE Gods Word seem worthless....as if His power IN a man, is NOT CAPABLE to KEEP the mans SALVATION For Ever.

Instead of reading all the Warnings About Losing Salvation...try reading all the things the Lord DECLARES IS TRUE regarding a CONVERTED MAN...

It is what I talk about....Applying Scripture to you ...that actually Applies to you.

....lol.... I can hardly wait ....Your Legalistic Stances and the Hogwash Of your fellow Gospel Perverter , justbyfaithplusluckyrepentance , are always “ Fascinating ” to listen to———- NOT !

While you are” wading” through my giant “walls of text” try to pick up a little something ....then my Truth Lectures to you Tares would not have to be so lengthy.....
This is exactly what Paul was talking about in Romans 11:20-22. He's talking to those who 'stand by faith', which you say you are, so it's directed to you. I don't see the humility and fear that Paul says you who stand by faith are to have. I see in you the very thing he says not to be—arrogant. You're talking down to those you consider lost. You reek with arrogance and pride over those you consider lost. The very thing Paul said not to be in regard to the lost Israelites. Where's your humility? Where's your fear? Where's your diligence? Where's your vigilance? The description of your life doesn't match at all with what the Bible says we are to be.
