    Legalism in religion

    Two commandments? You are then saying God does not require us to love Him in order for God to save us. You give two commandments as the ONLY requirements in salvation. Again that means all other commandments God gives us can be dis-obeyed. Believe in Jesus. You say required commandment. Love...

    Legalism in religion

    Faith alone salvation is a gospel that teaches you do not have to obey Gods commandments like water baptism to be saved. This obviously contradicts the Bible, 1John 1:4 -He who says I know Him and does not keep His commandments is a liar and the truth is not in him.

    Alright, then your gospel teaches we can dis-obey Gods commandments and still be saved. Thus, you were saved by a gospel of salvation through disobedience to God.

    Ok, now if faith alone saved you, then it was by faith that you got baptized. Now, could you be saved if you disobey the commandment to be baptized? Would you still be saved without good works?

    True saving faith is never alone. It will always taken action. Jesus said He who enters the kingdom does so by water and Spirit, John 3:5. Jesus repeats in His great commission that belief and baptism saves, Mark 16:15-16. Jesus never taught ones faith without obedience saves.

    Show me your faith without your works? I will show you my faith by my works

    Legalism in religion

    Were you completely ignorant of the Bible when you believed God saved you? btw, one cannot be saved by faith only. Did God come directly to you and teach you His gospel with absolutely no other person involved in your conversion? The moment you believe you were said, was there no one at all...

    Two Extremes of Man's Religion: Works with Faith and Faith without Works

    You do not understand these verses that you use as proof texts for salvation by faith alone and no obedience to Gods commandments. Let's examine one, Titus 3:5 and see if Paul is teaching Titus that there are no works in salvation. Titus 3:5, -not by works of righteousness which we have done...

    Infant baptism biblical?

    Illuminator and BreadofLife, Since you both teach babies must be baptized to be saved. You are teaching all infants that are aborted before they can be sprinkled are lost. The catholic religion has babies going to hell. Jesus taught babies are already in the kingdom, Matthew 18:3-4, -and said...

    Infant baptism biblical?

    False equivalency. One takes away sins, saves. The other cannot save anyone. And your accusation is misrepresentation. I never denied there is a metaphor used to describe water baptism as a spiritual circumcision. You are trying to equate, Babies being circumsized with babies being saved in...

    Infant baptism biblical?

    It would give some credibility to your claims if in fact the old covenant that one got into through circumcision equated with water immersion but they do not. Circumcision never was designed to save a Jewish baby. Circumcised Jews could be lost. Whereas new testament baptism in the name of...

    Two Extremes of Man's Religion: Works with Faith and Faith without Works

    No historian would automatically trust one man who is pro denominations!!!! Bob L. Ross followed calvinist doctrine. BIG TIME CONFLICT OF INTEREST!!!! But Danthemailman would not let a little thing like that stop him from using a biased source for his "evidence". You have no credibility...

    Legalism in religion

    Jesus saves no one face to face today. All today are saved by other men playing a part in another's salvation, James 5:20, -let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.

    You teach obeying God is not required to be saved. Gods commandments non-essential 1John 2:4, -He who says I know Him and does not keep His commandments is a liar and the truth is not in him.

    Legalism in religion

    Jesus gave a direct command to be water immersed. To say it is not to be saved. Implies one can disobey Gods command to be baptized and still be saved. Jesus calls that lawlessness. Behold is trying to be saved through disobedience of Gods commandments If baptism is not essential, then Gods...

    Baptism is done from faith. Baptism is an act of faith. Jesus commands it I believe Him and obey. I am not a legalist.

    Trusting Jesus is not belief alone. Trusting Jesus when He said believe and be baptized is trust when you believe what He says, Mark 16:15-16.; John 3:5 Behold equates commandment keeping with legalism
