And, after all that rhetoric, you still didn't answer my basic question. Does your works come first before the finished work on the cross or not? If your works come first, then so will your judgment. A simple yes or no response would be good enough.

I see all kinds of wacko private interpretations of old and new testament scripture galore on this site alone. It gets quite annoying after a while.

So are you saying he believes that Satan is nothing but some allegory of ourselves? Is Satan a real entity or not?

So are you saying that Satan isn't your enemy? He certainly considers you his enemy since you claim to be saved. So if he's not your enemy seeking to devour you then what is he? Your best buddy?

Which one comes first to you, being saved by the blood atonement of Jesus Christ, or your works? Does the chicken come first or is it the egg? You seem confused even though I just explained to you in clear cut English where "charity", or your works belong in the pecking order of the...

No, actually, nothing at all was added to the scripture from which you originally cited. The chapter in context: At what point is 1 peter 4 NOT in reference directly to the believer? Here is the bottom line, a gentile, a non-believer, can show all the charity they want. Getting saved boils down...

Charity shall cover a multitude of sins for the born again believer, NOT the unbeliever. This is what the scripture was referring to in context. Beyond this, your works will NOT make you the bride of Christ when the time comes. If it would, then it makes the entire gospel message null and void...

If he's still facing judgement by the Lord in front of the great white throne for his every deed, thought and word he ever spoke in his life, then no, his "good deeds" didn't cover any sin. Your good works are like filthy rags to the Father, so the only thing that ever did or could cover any sin...

Nope and here's the simple, bottom line reason why: To God, who knows the end of all things from the beginning, it won't matter how many times we restart our lives because God already knows we will sin no matter what. Some ask the same question about Adam and Eve. They ask; Why didn't God just...

Agreed, if Jesus is not God, then that makes him a created being and NOT begotten of God. Nothing else is ever stated to be begotten of the Father except Jesus. There is no in between, you are either created or you aren't, and the only thing stated to be not created is Yahweh. I'm sure no one...

Its not about whether or not I'm sure, God stated that he is sure that you won't remember this world, and that's all that should matter to you. I can say with absolute certainty based on the entirety of scripture from beginning to end that we won't even know what sin is, because sin, like this...

The purpose of the gospel isn't just to fix our mortal issues or to do away with evil, the purpose of the gospel is to save your soul from judgement day and from getting tossed into the lake of fire. And the Bible doesn't say that this universe will be restored, this universe and the sin that...

I think your question, and anybody else's with a similar question can be boiled down to this: "If evolution is true, then why are humans such weaklings in almost every single way minus intelligence to their supposed animal common ancestry?" That one question just about disproves any notion of...

You all are just figuring this out about heretoeternity? It took you long enough.

Some would say that the story of Noah is kind of like a precursor to what occurs with the rapture in the new testament. The flood is the judgement, and Jesus is the ark by which the saints will be saved, hence why Jesus compared his second coming to what occurred in the days of Noah.

The four beasts that rise from the sea in the book of Daniel are each described as diverse from one another representing four different conglomerations of every kingdom on earth. Its not one country, its many different countries united under four different E.U style governments. This of course...

How big does this seed have to be for it to be considered to be of the word of God? Does it have to be the size of an Orchid seed or a mustard seed? Is there a unit of measurement for those claiming to be of the faith?

Yeah, OK pal.

Of course you don't, because your argument makes no logical sense. He can't be at two different places at once. But I'll take it further anyway just to drive the point home that they are not the same. In revelation 19, it says that the beast and false prophet are thrown into the lake of fire...

Amen, and I can assure you that no one will fight for you, but you, unless God steps in and fights your battles for you like he did for the Hebrews many times.
