    Every Believer Must Do Good Works and Proclaim the Gospel, Some Are Called to Teach

    No, we are commanded to rebuke and admonish brothers and sisters in sin, otherwise we ourselves partake in their sins. Anyone who is refusing to help the poor is sinning, because such things are commanded by God for us to do.

    Every Believer Must Do Good Works and Proclaim the Gospel, Some Are Called to Teach

    Tell me, if there was a believer that was going around injuring people, would you be reprimanding the ones sternly warning him to stop, or the one that is injuring others? You are reprimanding the wrong person. Do you not understand the seriousness of any person that calls himself a believer...

    Do you really think Christ would be kind to those who deny the need to to good and give to the poor? Look what he did with the Pharisees who lacked love for others! The same anger that Jesus Christ had is the same anger I have against any person that calls himself a believer and says he doesn't...

    It's not a whim. He predestined the others that he may demonstrate his power and wrath, hence, What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction, (Romans 9:22 [ESV]) While those he did chose, that he...

    Predestination is a doctrine of hell? And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified. (Romans 8:30 [NIV]) For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn...

    Now you're berating me for calling someone sweetheart? First because I call a woman an old lady, then because I call another woman sweetheart? In you is this saying true, "'We played the pipe for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.' For John came neither eating...

    That wasn't the question though, giving joyfully goes without saying for everyone, the question was how do the poor give, and I said, giving applies to everyone, poor or rich, because if a rich man gives a million dollars while having ten million dollars, and a poor man gives one dollar when he...

    Sweetheart, predestination is indeed a teaching of scripture. It is not something "Calvin" made up, for many people label this teaching and automatically reject it, not knowing that the scriptures plainly teach predestination, which one man happened to realize. I have a teaching concerning...

    Do the poor not also give? "Truly I tell you," he said, "this poor widow has put in more than all the others. (Luke 21:3 [NIV]) How much you give is not of importance, its how much you give in proportion to what you have.

    There's nothing wrong with calling an older woman an old lady. Does the scripture not call older men elderly? Now you're just nit picking and trying to find fault wherever you can. Why am I being stern with her? Because she is saying that believers don't need to give to the poor or feed the...

    It is clear that he is drawing you, because I perceive your heart is more eager to do good than this old lady I've been contending with all day on here who refuses to understand that as believers we must all do good works after believing. Sadly, many have been deceived into the false teaching of...

    Whoever is chosen will do good works, because the good works the chosen do were already prepared beforehand for the chosen to do, For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. (Ephesians 2:10 [NIV])

    If you don't feed the hungry and give to the poor then yes, you are lost, because the love of Christ is not in you. Also, if you still sin, then you are in fact under Law, for indeed the Law is written for sinners. You can only be released from Law once you are released from the sinful nature...

    No one here is judging anyone. Judging implies condemning sinners to death as the Law demands. I am rebuking and instructing. What is my message? Do good unto others. Give to the poor. Feed the hungry. If you have a problem with this message, then there's a problem with you.

    A good work, in plain terms, would be helping someone with an actual need. For example, one common type of person in our American society that are in need are the homeless. Doing a good work would be to give them money or to give them food, for they are in actual need. If you smile at a person...

    Whoever has the holy spirit inside him, just as Jesus Christ did, knows the hearts of men, because the holy spirit tells him concerning other men, for this is a form of prophesying that is common among all prophets of God, (Formerly in Israel, if someone went to inquire of God, they would say...
