I have a problem with people that profess to be Christians and live like the devil.

Very true. People are looking for someone to follow. There are 1.3 billion Catholics that believe the pope is the vicar of Christ.

God is going to fix it alright. "The heavens shall pass away with a great noise and everything is going to melt with fervent heat. We are looking for a new heaven and a new earth, 2 Peter 3:13.

You are full of heresies and unbelief. You can't quote scripture; you only quote what you think the scripture says. "And you, that were sometimes enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now has he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and...

There are two different kinds of sins. There is the sin that we are born into, which we cannot do anything about. Psalm 51:5. And then there is the sin that we deliberately do.

Because, like you, they have rejected God's great free gift of salvation. "For by grace (God's goodness) are you saved through faith; and not that of yourselves: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD" Ephesians 2:8.

The desire to belong to something is very strong. This is how the cultist work,

Or "whosoever that shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved" Romans 10:13.

Right. Jesus has done it all and he did it perfectly. This is why Paul wrote, "You are complete in him" Colossians 2:10.

Spiritually speaking, we are already perfect and complete in Christ, Colossians 2:10. Physically, we are still sinners, Romans 7:7-25. As long as we are still here on this sinful planet in our unredeemed Adamic bodies we will sin, Romans 8:23.

Peter is symbolism? I don't think so. "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the works that are therein shall be burned up" 2 Peter 3:10.

Because Jesus has defeated sin, death and the devil so that "Whosoever that shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved" Romans 10:13.

Christ's sheep are the ones that have accepted him as their savior. You believe that Jesus could not get anyone to believe in him, so he made them believe in him. Doesn't do much to glorify God or his Son Jesus Christ. A forced salvation is really sick.

Are you suggesting that we become like Christ?

Another Paul hater. Paul earned his position as an apostle. No one suffered more for the sake of the Gospel than Paul. Paul said that he received his Gospel directly from Jesus Christ, Galatians 1:11-12. So, you want to believe that Jesus made a big mistake when he called Paul to take the...

No, this earth will be destroyed by fire, 2 Peter 3:10-14.

Right. God does not need a Cathedral made by human hands to receive worship.

Right. Works are not an indication of faith. I know of some cultist that can outshine most Christians because they believe that their works are going to save them. There are problems with the book of James. For one thing the book of James was not directed to Gentile believers, it was directed...

Right. Peter was not really very strong in the faith. Paul had to correct him, Galatians 2:11-21. And then he denied knowing Jesus three times.

Please see my new article, "The Simplicity of the Gospel". James was a Judaizer. A Judaizer is someone that believes in Jesus but also believes that you must keep the law of Moses. There were many Judaizers in the early. I am sure that James came into the truth at a later date.
