    Why Is Faith Counted As Righteousness (Ro 4:5)?

    Read the OP before responding to the OP. Proverbs 18 13He who answers a matter before he hears it—this is folly and disgrace to him. If you disagree with the things said in the OP, then quote sections of the OP and explain why it is you think that the things said in the OP are wrong. Thank you.

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    I didn't need to go to hell. Anyway, that wasn't the point--the point was I stick close to Scripture, and I can see when people are not sticking to Scripture.

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    At least don't lie about me. I was perfectly clear : Why do you use dishonesty when you talk with me? Yeah, you become born again by obeying God's command to believe. You don't know what you're talking about.

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    I recognize some people who disagree with me have God's presence--some in a way I don't. Unfortunately, I went to hell from listening to a pastor instead of God, so, now, my only certainty is what the text says, so I stick close to it, and I notice no one knows what they're talking about (when...

    God's command (part of it) is to believe (1 Jn 3:23,24)--and "but to those who believed [obeyed the command] He gave the right to become sons of God." You don't know Scripture.

    Just wanted to point out that we're not under Law

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    When actual sin occurs in the heart, the Law detects it, but didn't cause it. However, not all breaking of the Law occurs as a result of sinful desires, which it condemns-the Priests break the Sabbath while working in the Temple and are not guilty. The Law can detect and condemn sinful desire...

    OK I just wanted to clarify because some people believe in sinless perfectionism.

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    We are under Grace, and it seems this means the means of sanctification is knowing Jesus, "looking away unto Jesus the author and perfecter of our faith". "If they have escaped the corruption of the world through the knowledge of the truth"--so if we began by knowing Christ, we proceed to...

    1 John 4 17By this is love perfected with us, so that we may have confidence for the day of judgment, because as he is so also are we in this world. But don't forget... 1 John 3 2Beloved, we are now children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that when Christ...

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    Yeah, Peter says those who have suffered in the flesh have ceased sinning--as Paul says, "we will be glorified together with Christ if we suffer with Him"--but, still, even John the Apostle sinned (he says so in Revelation), so, at the same time that a person strives to please God, they should...

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    I'll say this : it's easier said than done. You can say it, but have you done it? If you haven't done it (lived sinlessly), you probably oughtn't say it (we can live sinlessly). It is an indication that it is not true.

    Soyeong believes Christians are supposed to serve God by the Law of Moses LOL--that we're under Law, not under Grace.

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    The more a person sees Jesus the more holy they are because His Name is "God Is Our Righteousness" (Jer 23:6). The Moon has no light, but it can reflect the light of the Sun. "When we see Him as He is we will be as He is".

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    They want to preserve the peace with God through righteousness of faith... that explains it but it doesn't excuse what they are doing, being underhanded and dishonest and incoherent.

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    Even John sinned (you can see this in the Book of Revelation), so I think glorifying God by righteousness gets more and more perfect over time--if John wasn't 100% perfect, we won't reach perfection, either. We will be as He is when we see Him at His return (1 Jn 3).

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    We are justified by God's righteousness revealed from faith to faith (Ro 1:17). The "one Law" (Ex 12:49) for Christians is "each man is to be fully convinced in his own mind" (Ro 14:5), and "give thanks" (Ro 14:6)--breaking that rule is "sin" (Ro 14:23)--if observing a day or a dietary rule were...

    Filthy Rags versus Fine Linen Bright and Clean

    Sin, which does not need the Law to be performed, registers in the Law as transgression. But not all transgression of the Law is a result of sin--eg, the priests are guiltless working on the Sabbath in the Temple. God's righteousness, which does not need the Law to be performed, registers in the...
