I am not Catholic, and I am strongly against Catholicism. Just because I am teaching the Bible in what it says plainly in regards to salvation (in that we are saved by God's grace and Sanctification) does not mean I agree with that church (which I find to be in great error). They believe in the...

Most people do not understand that Paul was fighting against a heresy of which I call "Circumcision Salvationism" (Which is Law Alone Salvationism without God's grace); A certain sect of Jews were trying to deceive some Christians into thinking they had to first be circumcised in order to be...

As for boasting mentioned in Ephesians 2:8-9. Ephesians 2:1 also says that we have been quickened. So Ephesians 2 is primarily talking about "Initial Salvation." For being quickened is a one time event. To be quickened means to be born again spiritually (Which can happen when we first seek...

This was said in context to those who have heard and learned of the Father come unto Jesus (See: John 6:45). This was in context to the Jew at that time. After Christ had risen, it would then be Jesus who would draw all men unto Himself. “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all...

One particular wrong sin is all it takes to be separated from GOD. Adam and Eve died spiritually the day they disobeyed God's command. Granted, I believe they reconciled with God, but the point is that a person can die by their sin. Take Ananias and Sapphira. They lied to the Spirit and they...

I. Fall Away List of Verses: If we are never in jeopardy when we sin, then the Bible would not teach that we can fall away from the faith; But it does teach that we can fall away. Here are several lists of verses that makes it absolutely clear that believers can fall away from the faith...

May the Lord Jesus bless you. It is not selfishness to obey God's Word and His instructions for us within His Word. Jesus says we are to deny ourselves and pick up our cross and follow Him. I believe that is the opposite of self, friend. Show me what verses you are referring to here when...

So work out your salvation with fear and trembling means what to you in Philippians 2:12?

So you believe works play a part of salvation (so as to one day enter the Kingdom), too? Or do you believe Sanctification (holy living) is a part of salvation? Most people seem to be arguing against my OP here and so you don't appear to understand what has been going on in this thread. Most...

You said, I quote: “I did deal with your verses.” ~ Blue Dragonfly. But you did not deal with the verses I put forth to you by explaining them. You only gave new verses of your own that defends your belief and that's not explaining the ones I gave you. Granted, I know I quoted a lot of verses...

Romans 7 is dealing more than the ten because Paul hints at the problem of “Circumcision Salvationism” in Romans 3:1, and Romans 4:9-12 (See: Acts of the Apostles 15:1). Even in another letter to the Galatians Paul points out that when he refers to the Law it is the whole thing (Note: This...

It’s not what I think. It’s what God’s Word says, and your belief is not in line with the Bible. You need to demonstrate these particular sayings here using the Bible. The problem is: You will not find any verse or passage that speaks in this way (Which shows your belief is unbiblical).

The point of this thread is recognizing the problems in Perpetual Belief Alone Salvationism. This thread is not about what BarneyFife wants to make it about. The type of works we are to do would be another topic of discussion for another thread. One has to refute the false teaching of a...

Now you are either lying or you don’t listen too well. You did not explain the verses I put forth to you. You did not explain at least 2-3 of my works for salvation verses (after we are saved by grace) and you did not explain Isaiah 26:10, Hebrews 3:13-14, Jude 1:21, Revelation 2:10, Acts...

Right. We will not hear imaginary Protestant Belief Alone Salvationist sayings as of it over rides tons of verses in the Bible. Your camp never properly explains the plain meaning of tons of verses that refutes your belief. Most just don’t even deal with the verses and those who do simply...

You first have to deal with the verses I presented before offering your own. This will show that you are accepting the whole counsel of God’s Word and your not just cherry picking certain Bible verses out of context to the rest of the Bible. Anyways, I have been with a lot work lately and may...

Not at all. I just follow what God’s Word says, and I believe His Word clearly teaches two aspects of salvation. We are… #1. Initially saved & foundationally by God’s grace without works (Ephesians 2:8-9). #2. Chosen by God to salvation through Sanctification of the Spirit and a belief of the...

But you were no doubt influenced by Protestant Belief Alone Salvationist articles, or videos, or preachers, etcetera because you have the same thinking that they do and you agree with their sayings like we are saved by a belief alone on the finished work of the cross. This no doubt would not...

I am not Catholic or Orthodox. Those churches are false for many other reasons biblically. I am just a simple born again Christian who believes the Bible alone + the Anointing to Understand It. Anyways, like many others I have talked with over the past 11 years online, you are not really...

Anyways, may God bless you all (even if we disagree strongly on Scripture).
