    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Right, but you are still not dealing with the actual points I made with Scripture I brought up. You are still quietly ignoring them. So if this is how you debate, I would not really see it as you succeeding in that venture, my friend.

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    1 John 3:1-3 KJV 1) Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. 2) Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    I believe in Progressive Sanctification by the Holy Spirit. Believers are to live holy but they cannot justify sin like the mindset in the OSAS and Sin and Still Be Saved (Free Will Baptist) Camps. Believers should not to set out with the mindset that they are fallen and they will sin again as...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    I believe this is only the case because you want a sin and still be saved type belief to be true and not because that is what the Bible plainly states. Again, you have not given any sufficient rebuttals to what I said so far. You are still ignoring my biblical points. For me, as well...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    There are two things on that list that is not mentioned. #1. You, (and): #2. Your sin.

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    I am not into playing games or playing to your own rules. I believe if a person truly knows the Bible, I believe they will take the time to explain the verses they know and not use excuses or rules to not do so. Take all the time you need to explain each one. Take a month to explain each one...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Again, this promise only applies to those who love God according to the context of verse 28. Jesus says if you love me, keep my commandments (John 14:15). Jesus is God and so we are to love Jesus (God) by keeping His commandments. In other words, in order for the promise you love to quote it...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    You can take them one at a time. They are not going anywhere. If it takes you a month to explain then... so be it. Are you not here to help others see the truth? You can deal with each one as time permits. If you know the Bible, they should be a breeze to explain, right?

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    You failed to recognize the conditions of being raised with Christ according to Romans 6 that I gave you. Being raised with Christ is living a life that is characterized by walking in newness of life.

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    I am saying that Paul is telling the Colossian believers that they put off the old man's deeds (sin) in Colossians 3:9 as Paul said. Putting away sin was at one point in time what all the Colossian believers did. In Colossians 3:9: Paul must also be implying that some among the Colossian body...

    Just your saying so does not prove that such is the case. You are making broad brush stroke statement that does not really explain what those verses really mean.

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    It's not about me. It's about what the Scriptures say. If I told you I was a saint, you would not believe me. If I told you I have stumbled in the past, you would go... “Ah ha!” See... nobody can walk perfectly. The Bible is true regardless of any one person's life. My life is not the...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    You left out the key verse that refutes your belief here. You started in verse 29, but you need to carefully read verse 28. Romans 8:28 “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” All things work together for...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    If you were to skip back to the previous chapter, James is ALSO teaching obedience as a part of the salvation process (Note: What is not mentioned by James is that this obedience would only be possible AFTER we are first saved by God's grace). James 1:12 “Blessed is the man that endureth...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    James 2:1 says: “My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.” Also, this belief sounds like MAD. Mid Acts Dispensationalism (MAD) basically says that Paul wrote only to the Gentile believers, and Peter to only the Jews. However, Peter...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    This really is not a refutation of anything I said with Scripture. I believe what Paul states is 100% true. But I don't believe that is the case for you. For you did not really address or explain my verse points below by the apostle Paul that refutes your sin and still be saved belief. For...

    False propaganda. Another King James Bible Believer What About Erasmus? But even still... the KJB translators used other sources like the Syriac Peshitta and the Old Latin Bible (not Jerome's Latin Vulgate Bible). The KJB translators also used various papyri, as well. Again, not true...
