    No, but rarely have I ever read such nonsense as in your post #41.

    The fate of BACs who fail to remain “in Christ”

    In my most humblest of opinions ... you might just as well go right back into your mommy's womb and stay there.

    Being born AGAIN is a re-birth. 1st birth = physical ... 2nd birth = spiritual

    The fate of BACs who fail to remain “in Christ”

    Sorry, I didn't realize that you people weren't familiar with the term BAC. A BAC is aperson who has received the Holy Spirit inside. IMO, one remains a BAC, even if he/she fails to remain in Christ. Yes, there are BACs in hell, and there will be more as time goes on. Ask yourself: If a BAC...

    The fate of BACs who fail to remain “in Christ”

    Yes, harmonizing (or, as I call it: reconciling) in the NT: the so-called OSAS verses ...and... the verses opposing OSAS results in the following revelation: True saving faith = enduring deep heart belief + enduring trust + enduring obedience (Obedience includes co-operating with the...

    The fate of BACs who fail to remain “in Christ”

    Just because the RCC is full of "the doctrines of men", is it not possible that they teach a few truths? E.G. belief in the Trinity. Salvation, according to Scripture, depends on man's co-operation! Many NT verses prove each of these spiritual truths: Believers stay righteous by practicing...

    The fate of BACs who fail to remain “in Christ”

    Greetings! My perspective is merely that of the NT, and not of today's churches. You must choose: either follow the Scriptures, or follow your church doctrine. Many, many BACs see clearly that most churches today are FAST ASLEEP. Satan has deceived them into believing in false doctrines from the...

    The fate of BACs who fail to remain “in Christ”

    John 15 (NLT) 1 I am the true grapevine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off EVERY BRANCH OF MINE that doesn’t produce fruit, 4 Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me...

    Personal Righteousness

    If any BAC here would like to know how to be righteous in God's eyes ... “… let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous just as He is righteous. He who sins is of the devil … Whoever has been born of God does not sin (habitually) … In this the children of God and the...

    Personal Righteousness

    Congratulations! ... You continually succeed in boggling my mind. Would you care to see a page full of NT verses, which exhort believers to press on towards holiness, strive for holiness, etc. etc.? Or, would you prefer that I send you an NT? Actually, I apologize for reprimanding you ... for I...

    Personal Righteousness

    True believers will co-operate with the precious Holy Spirit while He tries to sanctify them unto holiness! True believers acknowledge that they have their part to play in their salvation! Some proof verses of this are found here ... Believers stay righteous by practicing righteousness .

    Personal Righteousness

    Where? ... Are you kidding? Try the dozens of dire warnings in the NT. How about, e.g. "Work out your salvation with fear and trembling." (Phil 2:12) Jesus said to not fear man, but to fear God who can throw you into hell. Please note: The gospels (and the whole Bible) were written mostly for...

    Personal Righteousness

    There is NO automatic guarantees after becoming born-again. The BAC must learn that he/she has to co-operate with the precious Holy Spirit. Positional sanctification alone ... gets the BAC nowhere. Progressive sanctification towards holiness is critical for the BAC. This is having the correct...

    Personal Righteousness

    Yes, this is all done at the time of receiving the Holy Spirit, i.e. INSIDE at the first Spirit baptism. But, all such standing must be maintained by the BAC through: + co-operating with the Holy Spirit, + continuing to endure in the faith, + obedience to Jesus' commandments, + repenting of all...

    Salvation is through faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.

    Salvation is also by ... Believers stay righteous by practicing righteousness Believers stay righteous through their obedience Believers faith must endure until the end of their lives Believers keep salvation by repenting of their sins Believers were chosen and called to live holy lives...
