Matthew 7:22 - Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? Other translations say mighty works. Depart from Me, I never knew you = unsaved. How are we saved? Through faith IN...

Apology accepted. Genuine Christians, those who truly are born of God, are born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever (1 Peter 1:23) and are new creations in Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:17) We have been changed. Genuine Christians...

From beginning "have been saved through faith" (Ephesians 2:8) to end "receiving the end of your faith--the salvation of your souls" (1 Peter 1:9) salvation is by grace through faith and is not by works. Works keep us saved = "type 2 works salvation" or salvation by works at the back door.

2 Corinthians 5:21 - For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

Who does the fig tree represent in this parable? Jesus said a good tree (which is 'descriptive' of believers) bears good fruit but a bad tree which is 'descriptive' of unbelievers) bears bad fruit. (Matthew 7:17) In John 15:2-6, the branches that bear fruit and remain are genuine believers...

Accomplishing multiple acts of obedience as a believer are good works. Why is that so hard to understand? The Christian faith. You have the audacity to judge me as a non-Christian? That judgment call is well above your paygrade. Of course it isn't. (Romans 4:5-6; Ephesians 2:8,9; Titus 3:5; 2...

The Bible clearly states in many passages of scripture that we are saved through belief/faith "apart from additions or modifications." (Luke 7:50; 8:12; John 1:12; 3:15,16,18,36; 6:40,47; 11:25,26; Acts 10:43; 11:17; 13:39; 15:7-9; 16:31; 26:18; Romans 1:16; 3:24-28; 4:5; 5:1; 10:4; 1...

It's works-salvationists who practice eisegesis very well. Yes, Jesus never knew them which means they were never saved. These many people in Matthew 7:22 had the wrong foundation. They were trusting in their works to save them and not in Christ alone. Their hearts were not right with God, so...

Obedience which "follows" saving faith in Christ and is produced "out of" faith is works. I never said that and seeking salvation based on works is not obedience. (Romans 4:5-6; 11:6; Ephesians 2:8,9: Titus 3:5; 2 Timothy 1:9) Good deeds are good works which are wrought in God, in His presence...

So, you don't understand the descriptive contrast between believers and unbelievrs in John 5:28-29? You also try to "shoehorn" obedience/works "into" believes. The end result is salvation by works. John 3:19 - And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved...

1 Corinthians 1:18 - For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? where is the...

We are saved FOR good works and not by good works. (Ephesians 2:8-10) Also see Romans 4:2-6; 11:6; Titus 3:5; 2 Timothy 1:9 etc..). Matthew 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Titus 3:8 - This is a faithful...

That self righteous, holier than thou gospel is not the gospel of Christ, which is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes. (Romans 1:16) Rather than promoting Christ, certain folks instead prefer to exploit the gospel and Christ in order to promote themselves. :(

Yes, there is a difference between the permanent indwelling and sealing of the Holy Spirit in the New Testament and the indwelling in the Old Testament which was selective and temporary. The Holy Spirit “came upon” such Old Testament people as Joshua (Numbers 27:18), David (1 Samuel 16:12-13)...

It's your view that has already been debunked (multiple times) and there is just no getting through to you at all. :( It's impossible to convince people of anything whose minds are already made up.

In regard to Romans 3:31, we establish or uphold the law by putting our faith in the One who fulfilled all the righteous requirements of the law on our behalf and who offers us His perfect righteousness as a free gift. (Romans 4:5-6) Christ is the culmination of the law so that there may be...

I did read it carefully, along with multiple other verses that I properly harmonized with Acts 2:38 before reaching my conclusion on doctrine. Apparently, you are unable see anything beyond your biased church doctrine. Your indoctrination runs deep.
