    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    It has everything to do with salvation. But obviously, you have a vested interest in it not being so. Because if it is not so, then the claim that God is making on your life through that passage is null and void. So, believe what you want to believe. Your blood is no longer on my head.

    My theory about the "Word" in John 1:1

    Of course we know that God the Father exists side-by-side with Himself in eternity.

    If Baptism could save then there is no need for the shed Blood of Jesus.

    One thing you can be certain of...receiving such a baptism is not going to put you out of the kingdom. The Holy Ghost is promised to those who receive it, for crying out loud!

    If Baptism could save then there is no need for the shed Blood of Jesus.

    Get some help. Pray. Maybe ask the Lord if He would want you to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth for the remission of your sins. It certainly can't hurt to pray about it to determine whether or not our doctrine is from Him.

    The Eternal Security Heresy: A Comprehensive Refutation of OSAS

    The teachings of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount tell you what your behaviour is to be like after you have been saved... And while you may not accept the authority of Paul in his epistle to the Romans, I will post something from there anyway for the sake of those who believe the testimony of 2...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    The "working out" here, in the Greek, has to do with like working out of a math problem; so that Philippians 2:12 is reiterated quite nicely in 2 Peter 1:10. 1Jo 3:8, He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    It is the inspired word of God; and as such it is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16).

    The False Doctrine with key word "COVER"

    Romans 3:19-20, Galatians 3:23.

    If Baptism could save then there is no need for the shed Blood of Jesus.

    Believing is unto righteousness and confession is unto salvation, according to the passage (Romans 10:9-10). I am not going to hell for making that confession unto salvation; if that were the case then salvation is unto hell and then the lake of fire. Do you really want to go there? I might...

    If Baptism could save then there is no need for the shed Blood of Jesus.

    How do you reconcile that with Ezekiel 33:11-20? Actually, that verse says, "For by grace are ye saved (?) through faith..." Better.

    The False Doctrine with key word "COVER"

    Of course it couldn't be further from the truth. And I don't believe that faith originated from me. Where does faith come from? Rom 10:17, So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Of course, my response in hearing is something that has to do with who I am as a...

    The False Doctrine with key word "COVER"

    Who doesn't possess faith? I will answer for you... the unbeliever. So yes, the unbeliever does not have forgiveness.

    The False Doctrine with key word "COVER"

    I'm not certain that that is true...and I'm also uncertain as to what your point is.

    His problem, not mine.

    The False Doctrine with key word "COVER"

    Forgiveness from Christ is conditional...on faith, and on confession of sins (see Romans 5:1-2, 1 John 1:9).

    The Eternal Security Heresy: A Comprehensive Refutation of OSAS

    You mean physically? I beg to differ. If I hear the words of Jesus and believe on the One who sent Him, I have everlasting life (right now) and shall not come into condemnation; and have (already) passed from death unto life. Not only does Jesus say this to us in John 5:24 (kjv); but He tacks...

    The Eternal Security Heresy: A Comprehensive Refutation of OSAS

    The Sermon on the Mount only contains the teachings of our Lord on morality and ethics...there are a variety of other subjects that the Bible speaks to us about; and to disregard the Bible indicates that you are "not born again". As for me, I believe that the Lord has done a work in my...

    The False Doctrine with key word "COVER"

    I have already addressed James 3:2. Jas 3:2, For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body. It is answered by Philippians 1:10... Phl 1:10, That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be...
