People will say they made themselves acceptable to God and Christ by believing, so then God planted them. However, it was God who made you acceptable, you did not make yourself acceptable. God planted you firmly into your belief and faith. 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus...

13 But He answered and said, “Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted. 14 Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.”

8 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, 9 who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which...

Glory Only in the Lord 26 For [k]you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many [l]noble, are called. 27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to...

Referring to Hebrews 9 above, there are not any transgressions for them who are part of this NC, as God has forgiven you all your sins and trespasses. As to regarding eternal redemption, there is no challenge to that if He has truly made you begotten again, God will remember them no more to...

Hebrews 9 is a good read about eternal security, called here eternal redemption... 11 But Christ came as High Priest of the good things [c]to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation. 12 Not with the blood of goats and calves, but...

Romans 3 about grace and faith, you know you can have no faith if you have no grace first. Without that grace being given to you, you will never have faith, believe or be saved. And we are justified first by grace, just as Titus describes. You cannot believe in Christ without God's grace...

Another example of our salvation, nothing we did, God did it. How can it be not more clearly written as here God made us born again, begotten again, not due to our works. Born again first, good works created beforehand by God for us to do come later Testifying of Christ as our Lord and Savior is...

Glory of the New Covenant 7 But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away, 8 how will the ministry of the Spirit not be...

Yes, this is implied in scripture in many places. God gives to us the new heart, not on our works or merit, we do not deserve his favor by our works, we obtain his mercy and favor because of God's GREAT love towards us, who were dead in sins and trespasses. That is why this is such a great and...

Where is the speaking here? Being born again is mentioned. Kept by the power of God through faith for salvation is mentioned too. BELIEVING is mentioned, with the end result as your salvation 1 Peter 1 A Heavenly Inheritance 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according...

And again Romans 1 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel [c]of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by...

AND THIS ALSO John 3 12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? 13 No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man [b]who is in heaven. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the...

Jesus did not say confessing or speaking was the criteria for salvation, All He says is believe. The speaking part comes later. It is something a saved person does as a sign of their salvation to the world. What does a mute person say to be saved? Following your logic, a mute person cannot be...

It very clearly states right here who is the AUTHOR of 'our' faith. Authors write books, God wrote His laws on your heart when He gave you the new heart, made your born again. Hebrews 12 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight...

Your not wrong exactly, but the important part of salvation by grace of God, is God gives to you your faith to believe and confess Him before men. This is a faith not of yourself, it is the gift of God. IF part there is of course still true, but the 'if' is not why we are saved, it is a product...

Not a thing. God made them alive who were dead in sin. People have complained that it is arbitrary, but that is from their POV of the flesh. Everything God does is with purpose and the council of His own will. ****************************************************************************** 11 In...

We were DEAD in trespasses and sins, God made us alive who were dead. Saved only by GRACE “I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; And I will not remember your sins." And a faith not of us, it is the gift of God, not our works, lest any consider boasting. If it...

And how do we get connected with Christ? By the express will and purpose of God directed to us. And not all have that. Christ knew all men, inside and outside. But he did not know them as in a mutual, loving relationship as a part of His family. Yes, God and Christ determine salvation for any...
