Salvation is of the Lord! He shall save His people from their sins. Those who are eternally saved respond through repentance and faith because they have been saved, NOT to be saved!

What do you mean by "not having anything to do with us"? One who hears the gospel of the Kingdom of God proclaimed and believes in their heart, believes by grace through faith that is the work of God toward those who are eternally saved. We don't believe in our heart if our heart after...

Is that what you believe? It certainly is NOT what I believe, nor is it what I've said!

Yes, salvation from start to finish begins, and also ENDS with God who alone is able to eternally save whosoever is born again!

But you do say it is by our good deeds that we are ETERNALLY saved. That ignores God saving believers to the uttermost through Christ who lives and makes intercession before the Father for we who always fall short in this life. Hebrews 7:25 (KJV) Wherefore he is able also to save them to...

What part of man before they are saved is Paul speaking of being "dead in trespasses and sins" if not spiritual death without exception of every man except Jesus? What part must be made alive (quickened) that is dead in trespasses and sins? Not only are we, who were (spiritually) dead in...

Where have I taught that I think everyone is saved? We are saved by God's grace through faith that is the gift of God to as many as our Lord God shall call. We are eternally saved through Him, according to God willing and working through the Spirit of Christ in us. Acts 2:39 (KJV) For the...

You're teaching that we repent, obey and continue in His words though our good works. But the only way we are able to repent, obey and continue in His words is by the power of God working in us. Philippians 2:13 (KJV) For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good...

You're teaching a doctrine of perfectionism, that no man can attain! Again, if our salvation is dependent upon how good we are, then who can be saved? To be consistent will you also teach that we must sell what we have and give to the poor to have treasure in heaven and follow Him? Matthew...

If our salvation (eternal life) is conditioned upon how good we are, who then shall be saved? For NONE of us are righteous, not one! Salvation is NOT dependent upon my goodness, rather it is through the goodness of God that we are eternally saved.

Verse 7:21 is NOT depicting those who are eternally saved by doing the will of God! It's showing the action of those who profess they are saved saying they know the Lord, doing good deeds in His name who are in FACT lawless! Those depicted here: Matthew 7:15 (KJV) Beware of false prophets...

Has nothing to do with Calvin! It is FACT, all mankind is physically born, spiritually dead, the result of the fall. Remember, many shall stand before Him at the judgment saying, "Lord, Lord".....and He will say to them depart from Me I do not know you!

Faith is a noun which comes not from man to save themselves. But believe(ing) is a verb which is the work of God according to grace given us that we shall be obedient to Him.

"That" refers to SALVATION! How is man saved? By GRACE through FAITH, and this (salvation) is not of man but of God that no man can boast!

Because mankind is NOT born knowing Jesus! Knowing there is a God is a good thing, but it is in knowing Jesus as Lord and Savior who gives us eternal life. We must KNOW Him to be eternally saved! When we hear the gospel of the Kingdom of God proclaimed and by grace through faith we believe in...

We either choose to believe Christ when He tells us the life we receive when we are born again is FOREVER, or we can choose to force contradictions into the Word of God. There is a difference in being blotted out of the book that registers our mortal birth, and the book of life the registers...

You've said it perfectly Siddhi! Continue believing Jesus, for this shows your name is recorded in the book of life! Christians no longer need fear the second death (lake of fire) because our names are written in heaven and shall never be blotted out, because when you were born again the life...

God's grace! Ephesians 2:8 (KJV) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

All of humanity have natural faith in many things/ways! That kind of faith cannot eternally save us! James 2:19 tells us that even the devils/demons believe (have faith) there is one God. James 2:19 (KJV) Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and...

Where does faith for eternal life come from, if not of the grace of God?
