    Yes. Is the whole of Bible a part of the faith? Are we to believe all of the Bible by faith? Yes, or no? If yes… then that means that even the instructions on holy living from God in the New Testament is a part of the faith. God talking about good works in the New Testament for us to do would...

    Jesus asks questions so as to provide an answer. So if my Lord can do so… then I can, as well.

    No. Noah’s obedience in building the Ark WAS A PART OF HIS FAITH. It’s says so in Hebrews 11. Hebrews 11 mentions how faith can be a belief and how faith can be works of faith. It’s like you guys are trying to say that apples have no part from coming from an apple tree. That’s how dumb your...

    Faith starts off justifying us by a belief alone in our Initial Salvation, but faith continues as doing things like Noah building the Ark. His action to build the Ark would be the work of faith and thus a part of the faith, too. So his works (works of faith) would be a part of the faith. So...

    Have you stopped sinning Charlie? If not, then what sins are you justifying under God’s grace as a license for immorality? (Jude 1:4). Please tell us. Also, do you not know that Titus 2:11-12 says that God’s grace teaches us to deny ungodliness and that we should live righteously and godly in...

    @Ferris Bueller For do you have to believe all of the Bible by faith? Did not God give us holy instructions to obey Him in the New Testament? Yes, or no?

    Because living holy is also a part of the faith. Everything in your Bible is a part of the faith. For faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God (Romans 10:17).

    Read 2 Thessalonians 2:13 several times and also look at the context. Don’t try to read something into the text that is not there. Just read it as it is written and believe it.

    That’s because faith has two sides to it. One side of faith is believing and the other side of the coin of faith is the work of faith or by deciding to take action to allow God to do the good work through you. No. Peter talks about how the global flood was an example to all who live ungodly...

    Not so. 2 Thessalonians 2:13 plainly says that God has chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit, and a belief of the truth. This is in context to holy living because of the context. Verse 12 gives us the polar opposite truth. It says that they all might be damned who...

    He was believing in the finished work of the cross for hours. It did not help him. But when he learned that the Bible requires us to simply act out in our faith, and he took action in doing things in his faith instead, that is when the power of God helped him to overcome sin. This is a...

    Do you believe Galatians 5:24, 2 Corinthians 7:1, 1 Peter 4:1-2? I take that as a… “No” “You don't’ believe those verses.”

    My life whether I am living like the 144,000 or not does undo what the Bible says. Also, the past is the past, and the future is not yet. All we have now is the present. Am I sinning right now? No. Do I plan to sin again? No. Anyways, the Bible teaches verses like Galatians 5:24, 1 Peter...

    I just watched a good video on how this Christian who was a part of the Once Saved Always Saved deception was told that if he believed hard enough (i.e. faith), then he would overcome particular sins in his life. This is what he was told by his Pastors and teachers. So he made many attempts to...

    What’s silly is that you are denying that walking in the light (loving your brother) is a part of 1 John 1:7. You say it is all faith. While there is an element of faith in obeying God’s Word, it’s not entirely faith alone that gets you to act out on faith. You simply have to just have to...

    Acts of the Apostles 18:28 NIV “For he vigorously refuted his Jewish opponents in public debate, proving from the Scriptures that Jesus was the Messiah.” I perfectly know what you believe, but I find it to be immoral. I don’t believe that is the case. You said you will remain a sinner saved...

    Concentrate on the words in Galatians 6:9. It says let us not be weary in well doing, for we will reap IF we faint not. Reap what? Skip back to the previous verse (verse 8). Galatians 6:8 talks about how one is sowing to the Spirit to reap life everlasting. Yet, you don’t believe those...

    I agree. Debate has helped me to dig into God’s Word in what it is really saying in detail more.

    It’s because a believer can either fall away from the faith by later hating their brother and or they never were saved to begin with. This has to be the interpretive viewpoint because the words IF and WE are mentioned in 1 John 1:9, and 1 John 1:7. The word “we” includes John in the...

    I would encourage you to simply rely on the Holy Spirit to guide you by asking the Lord to send the Spirit to you to help your understanding on God’s Word, and by comparing Scripture with Scripture instead. While commentaries or writings by other believers can be helpful at times, they can also...
