1 John 5 11And this is that testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. The life is in His Son, wherefore we are warned to "remain in Him" 1 John 2 11And this is that testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. As we are also warned by the...

Paul said the Galatians were fools for going back to the Law ("you observe days" "you who desire to be under Law" Galatians 4:21), which is the sinful flesh, instead of "seeking to be perfected" by "the Spirit" which is defined as "doing deeds of faith", which are generated by God in our...

Does Paul also offer "death that comes from the Law" when he teaches that eternal life is repaid doers of good in Romans 2:6-16 and Galatians 6:6-10?

1. John 14:17 2. It really is difficult to drag references when I'm on my phone--if the verse is well known I would hope that I would not have to do the extra work. Really it is a big deal. Very troublesome. 1. This is an error called "begging the question". 2. The point was Jeremiah 31 shows...

It's not about being "stuck on one verse"--there is no way to serve God but by walking by faith today since we are "under Grace". "Under Grace" God's Spirit of Grace writes God's Laws in our hearts and minds and that is what "faith" is. If we do not do what we are convinced we ought to be doing...

I am speaking of the tone of service, not momentary unrelated fear (eg, watching a scary movie, or someone jumping out from behind a bush and startling us).

Well, the rest of Scripture says the same--Romans 2:6-16 says that we will be repaid according to our deeds, eternal life, Galatians 6:6-10 says the same, James 2 says the same. Galatians 5 says we are to serve one another in love by which faith works so walking by faith is fulfilling the whole Law.

Oh no I don't meant that at all--I am forgiven for my doubt, by which I often fear, though.

"He who doubts is condemned... for whatever is not from faith is sin." as he had established "let every man be fully convinced in his own mind".

However, it seems an important, vital, distinction that the tone of "walking by faith" is to be love and hope Romans 5:1-5 Galatians 5:5 not fear since fear characterizes the work of a slave Romans 8:15 which is someone "under Law" not someone "under Grace" "walking by faith" (it seems...

"Works of Law" are deeds done in the context of being "under Law" which emanate from sinful flesh Romans 8:3 Galatians 3:3, but the works which we do "under Grace" are done by God 2 Corinthians 12:9 not sinful flesh so they aren't "works of Law".

1. Context : Romans 14:5 "let every man be fully convinced in his own mind" Romans 14:23 "anything that is not from faith is sin" by which the sinner is "condemned". 2. We were saved by grace through faith, but that salvation was as the Jews' from Egypt--1 Corinthians 10 says they still fell...

He is talking about the requirement that we walk by faith or else we're condemned. Condemnation is the opposite of justification. Your works affect your standing before God then. Same thing James 2 teaches. Same as Romans 2:6-16. Same as Galatians 6:6-10.

Our "salvation by the blood of the Lamb" corresponds to the "salvation" "by the blood of the lamb" by which the Jews were "saved" from their slavery in Egypt--yet they fell under God's wrath because though they began by faith they did not continue to walk in faith and so they angered God and...

Please let us discuss that on the appropriate thread.

Jesus's "born of flesh" corresponds to Nicodemus's misunderstanding "Can a man return to his mother's womb and be 'born again' when he is old?" and has nothing to do with John's baptism whatsoever.

Because "justified by faith" seemingly extends into "works of faith".

LOL! I think it's very odd.

Well, that is incorrect according to Romans 14:23, but I'd prefer it we spoke on that in the appropriate thread.

It's @Ferris Bueller's argument, no one else's.
