    You teach salvation by faith (your version of faith) "infused with works" and those works become meritorious towards receiving salvation. That nullifies grace!

    I believe all of God's revelation. I just don't believe your misinterpretation of scripture that results in salvation by works.

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    I see that you and robert derrick are in agreement here (which explains a lot!) and neither one of you have figured out that in James 2:21, James does not say that Abraham's work of offering up Isaac resulted in God accounting Abraham as righteous and that the accounting of Abraham's faith as...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    You continue to remind me of the Pharisee in the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector in Luke 18:9-14. Jesus spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others. You continue to attack salvation through faith in Christ alone and base...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    I noticed that only the KJV says spiritual "meat" in 1 Corinthians 10:3. All other translations that I read say spiritual "food" which was divinely provided manna. This food was provided by the power of God. In regards to verse 4, the rock that Moses struck throughout their journey provided...

    Reconciling Romans 4:2 with James 2:24

    Again, the children of Israel were called the "Lord’s servants," but they were not all saved. Leviticus 25:55 - For the children of Israel are servants to Me; they are My servants whom I brought out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God. *In Jude 1:5 - Though you already know all this, I...

    What does being born again mean?

    For a person who comes to the realization that he is lost and in need of Jesus Christ to save him (Romans 3:23; 6:23) he may obtain salvation only by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. (Ephesians 2:8,9) One needs to understand that Jesus Christ, God in human form, took his sins and paid...

    Of course believing is continuous and is not some shallow, temporary belief that has no root, produces no fruit and withers away. Believing does not include baptism. Your erroneous conclusion results in salvation by works. Baptismal regeneration is a false doctrine. Luke 7:29 - When all the...

    OSAS: Jesus Death Insufficient

    Christ's finished work of redemption is sufficient and complete to save believers. No supplements needed. (Romans 3:24-28) God imputes righteousness apart from works/we are saved through faith, not works -- hence, 'faith alone.' (Romans 4:5-6; Ephesians 2:8,9).

    What does being born again mean?

    Romans 10:13 - For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

    People that fall for conspiracy theories are often the less educated

    True. Advanced education and philosophies of men can be obstructions to faith, Godly wisdom and even common sense.

    False. Faith is not baptism and faith precedes baptism and we are saved through faith. It's just that simple. Moved on? Yes! By the time you get down to John 3:22, Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus is over with and He has moved on. John 3:22 - After these things Jesus and His disciples came...

    Who said anything about works alone? Even false religions and cults teach salvation by faith (their version of faith) and works. We are saved by grace through faith, not works. (Ephesians 2:8,9) That's not hard to understand. It's just hard for you to ACCEPT.

    John 3:5 does not mention baptism and John 3:15,16,18 mentions "believing in Him" (Christ alone) for salvation "with no mention of water baptism" and in regards to water baptism in John 3:22, by this time Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus is over with and He has moved on. John 3:22 - After...

    Already explained this to you multiple times. In regards to circumcision, read Romans 2:28-29 and Romans 4:9-11 then contrast that with Spirit baptism and justification by faith alone.

    Your 'surface' reading of scripture and Roman Catholic eisegesis remains your Achilles heel.
