    Beheaded OSAS: Soul Separation from the Body

    You quote whole chapters? Please be more specific in your quotations of where specifically you believe God promises eternal life despite if we sin, and or turn away from Him. I believe in two aspects of salvation and not just one. I believe genuine Christians are saved by: #1. God's grace...

    Beheaded OSAS: Soul Separation from the Body

    We are made partakers with Christ is what is says. Are you saying there are two people groups and or ways of salvaiton that are different? One plan of salvation for the Jews and one for the Gentiles? Scripture says God is not a respecter of persons. Scripture says there is no Jew or Gentile...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    Paul did teach about being saved by God's grace without works (Ephesians 2:8-9). This is the 1st aspect of salvation. However, there is a secondary aspect of salvation that Paul even taught (Which is being saved by the Sanctification of the Holy Spirit to live a holy life - See: 2 Thessalonians...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    If that is all a person does... then yes. This work alone will not save them. A person first needs to be saved by God's grace through faith in the Savior Jesus Christ and in believing the gospel message in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. But after they are saved by God's grace, I believe that the Bible...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    Paul was implying that it was works alone because he brought up the problem of circumcision of the Jews many times (Romans 3:1) (Galatians 2:3) (Galatians 5:2) which related to the Jerusalem council event whereby the council told us about how Gentile Christians were being deceived by a certain...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    You mean boasting and not boating. Again, we have been over this before. There is no boasting in oneself but there is only boasting in God if one believes Scripture in that God does the good work through the believer (John 15:5) (Philippians 2:13). This is your carnal thinking and wording...

    Beheaded OSAS: Soul Separation from the Body

    That really does not explain away the verses I put forth.

    Beheaded OSAS: Soul Separation from the Body

    OSAS is false because…. We are told: “...We are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end.” (Hebrews 3:13-14). "Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life." (Jude 1:21). "...be thou...

    I would even go so far as to say they were almost stone cold but with a hint of warmth enough to sing songs to the Lord (and that’s it). Many sitting in the audience at the church seemed bored and or disinterested while they were there. I am glad you liked it. David A.R. White. I have...

    Beheaded OSAS: Soul Separation from the Body

    The false teaching of Dual Nature Theology is at the heart of OSAS. This teaching basically says that a person must always sin in the flesh (at some point), but their soul and spirit is always saved by Jesus. This is why they believe they can sin and still be saved.

    Beheaded OSAS: Soul Separation from the Body

    This has to be read in balance with Galatians 5:24, 1 Peter 4:1-2, and 2 Corinthians 7:1, as well. Most OSASers or Perpetual Belief Alone Salvationists think they cannot stop sinning this side of Heaven. Many of them tell me they sin daily in thought, an deed multiple times a day, and they...

    Beheaded OSAS: Soul Separation from the Body

    Eternal life is a person named Jesus Christ (John 14:6), and it’s not a super power or magical wish granted to you. Christ alone has immortality (1 Timothy 6:16). He that has the Son has life and he that does not have the Son does not have life (1 John 5:12). The assurance that we know the Lord...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    Catholics, and the Church of Christ may falsely think that James is referring to a universal truth in James 2:24 whereby works would be included the Initial act of being accounted righteousness. But this is where I disagree with them strongly. The initial act of being accounted righteousness...

    Beheaded OSAS: Soul Separation from the Body

    I agree. OSAS does not make a whole lot of sense when reading the Bible. It’s a purely man made invention so as to justify sin.

    My Christian DVD Collection

    I am overjoyed you liked Time Changer. Basic internet searching and browsing on Christian film sites. “What if” is pretty good (if you have not seen it). It’s a Sci-Fi family comedy Christian film. Heaven’s War is a descent Christian Sci-Fi with intense action and good special effects...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24 Romans 4:2 says: “For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.” James 2:24 says: “Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.” Romans 4:2 implies that we are not justified by works...

    My Christian DVD Collection

    I look forward to your thoughts on Time Changer. It is my all time #1 favorite Christian film. As for effects or theatrics: Well, I do think there has to be a certain level of quality in a film for it to be worthy to watch without cringing. For example: Goliath 2015 is by far one of the...

    The Sabbath Day

    I agree with you that the Saturday Sabbath is no longer binding for the New Covenant believer. A plain, normal reading that is not biased will come away thinking this way based on Colossians 2:16, Acts of the Apostles 15:1, Acts of the Apostles 15:5, and Acts of the Apostles 15:24.

    The Sabbath Day

    Sorry. You don't know the future. I believe those who hold to a sin and still be saved type belief are the types of believers Jesus will say: “I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” (Matthew 7:23). How so? Well, the believers who did good works in His name in Matthew...
