    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    You reject we are born again by the word. Tell Peter and Paul that. You teach against the Scriptures. How God/Jesus calls all men to Him. 2Thessalonians 2:13-14, - but we are bound to give thanks to God always for you brethren beloved by the Lord because God from the beginning chose you for...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Give me scripture for your claim that God MUST work a miracle in order for us to believe in Jesus? Wrong, The Philippian Jailer as well as every new testament personal story of their conversion to Christ chose to be saved i.e. born again by asking, Acts 16:30, - and he brought them out and...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Your last three posts to me, post # 517, 518, 519 These posts contain zero Scriptural refutation. Stop wasting my time with your opinions. 1Peter 4:11, - If anyone speaks let him speak as the oracles of God

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    No friend, If we are born again then begotten of God,.... This is the same as saying we are born again then we are born again Friend, begotten by the gospel as Paul said is to be born. In the context 1Corinthians 4:15. Paul said begotten. Born of what? The gospel!!! Friend Paul is not speaking...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    The only way we can be born again is through the true gospel of Jesus Christ. If someone has been taught a false gospel, then they might believe they are born again but they are not. Only way to know one is born again is by examining what the apostles taught and Jesus on salvation. Many today...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    No I'm not saying faith is NOT a gift from God. I'm teaching how God Grant's faith is not by supernatural means today. Now in the age of miracles folks got faith through supernatural experiences. But today God Grant's His gift of faith through the word!! Without the Spirit we are none of His...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Your question is to vague. Give scripture for your questions. I don't believe you could answer this question. You taught me the lost unregenerate alien sinner cannot have faith by hearing the gospel. You taught me faith must be given directly through the Holy Spirit operating on the...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Hello Johann!!! Help me out, are you disagreeing with my belief that the Ephesians in Acts 19 did not receive the Holy Spirit until after they were saved? Also I read the entire post you sent me, post 497. Some of what you posted I agree with but other beliefs like, It is directly stated...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    You are teaching reformed theology Fred J, whether you know it or not. Many dont know where their theology comes from Fred J. Yes Fred J faith does come from within our ability to reason as God gave this ability to all. Paul said so, Romans 10:17, - faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Hi Fred J, thanks for responding. It is very typical of calvinist's like yourself to abandon your own calvinist doctrine when it doesn't help your position. But nine times out of ten calvinist's are totally oblivious that they do not practise what they preach. Case in point... Fred!!!! You...

    Trump is dangerous - a Messianic Complex

    God ordained civil government. Since God ordained it He authorized how it is to be ordered. Therefore can civil governments go against Gods purpose for civil government? Yes, Now I'm not saying that a government is not controlled by God. The bible is clear that God puts in place all kings. God...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Thankyou, If good works were incompatible with Grace then no born again christian could do any good works to be saved or after one is saved in their daily walk to remain faithful to God. What's really incompatible with Christs teaching is to claim one cannot do good works and recieve Gods grace...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Hello Fred J Sir I know you reject what I teach because you are a calvinist. Your interpretation of Ephesians 2:8-9 is reformed theological error. For by grace you have been saved All salvation is not based on merit but on mercy and Grace aka unmerited favor. through faith This is where you...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    What is the address of your local church? You say your work will not save you. No ones own works save them. No where in the whole Bible does God teach our works save. Only doing the works of God saves The work of God that we work is faith John 6:28-29. Jesus taught the work of faith pleases...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Sure I believe Jesus. I dont believe your misinterpretation of Jesus' teaching. This did not even attempt to explain your strange doctrine of no law today despite believing in Jesus being new testament law a commandment of God. I'm seriously considering coming to your local church in person...

    SALVATION: BY GRACE OR BY WORKS? A FALSE DICHOTOMY

    Um, wow!!! Your church is very ignorant Sir!!! He who believes in Him is not condemned.... Do you not realize it is Gods new testament law that you MUST believe in Jesus? No law then no commandments!!! Do you not understand that commandments are laws? We are commanded to believe. Romans...

    Yes you are very confused. You don't know what law is in force when you quote different verses in the new testament.
