And when you do, tell what this woman did. So we better have a good understanding of what this woman did! Right! My teacher told what this woman did nearly every time he spoke about the gospel. Didn't yours?

Would you Google instruction for a surgeon the day of your surgery?

BTW, I have the books in front of me. I wouldn't trust Google with the things of God!

The definition of believe is " to Believe?" Lol that's genius! Go believe then, you've been warned!

Right! Now you listen carefully! The word " BELIEVE" , in that passage is pisteuo in the Greek. Strong's , " pisteuo means NOT just to believe." Vines ," pisteuo is a personal surrender to Him and a life inspired by such surrender." Acts 16:30 should read, And they said, surrender your...

I didn't say it was the gospel, I said it was an incomplete gospel without what Christ said to do whenever it was preached.

No!

Oh ya, and the experience I'm having in that one on one relationship with Christ. But I can't use any of that to persuade you.

Why is your false " believe and recieve" understanding exempt from your " works salvation? You " choose " to believe, and then engage your will to follow that belief. No different than a surrendered life followed by that belief. No work intended to try and fulfill the law here, which we can...

Not a big fan of Jamesl But a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while.

The woman knew her life was filthy rags. She wasn't trying to fulfill God's law by one good work. She genuinely offered her life in the state she was in, and Christ elevated that act of Faith to the same level as His work on the Cross. That is what God is looking for, Faith like that!
