    Is faith apart of works?

    Prior to my conversion several years ago I was born and raised in the Roman Catholic Church, so none of your arguments will be anything new or enlightening. Good day sir.

    Is faith apart of works?

    Neither John 3:5 nor Titus 3:5 teach the false doctrine of baptismal regeneration. In regards to the word "water" in John 3:5, Jesus mentions "living water" in John 4:10, 14; 7:37-39 and in John 7:38-39, we read - "He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow...

    Is faith apart of works?

    In regards to John 15:1-2, as Greek scholar AT Robertson points out: Two kinds of connections with Christ as the vine (the merely cosmic which bears no fruit, the spiritual and vital which bears fruit). The fruitless (not bearing fruit, mh peron karpon) the vine-dresser "takes away" (airei) or...

    Is faith apart of works?

    Faith is not baptism and faith precedes baptism and we are saved the moment that we place our faith (belief, trust, reliance) in Jesus Christ alone for salvation.

    52% of professing christians do not believe the GOSPEL !

    There are genuine Christians and there are "nominal" Christians. There are genuine believers and there are make believers. Sadly, many who "profess" to be Christians merely believe "mental assent" that the death, burial and resurrection of Christ "happened," yet they don't trust in the death...

    Is faith apart of works?

    We are saved by grace through faith, not works. (Ephesians 2:8,9) Choosing to believe is clearly not a work that merits our salvation. Through believing, we are completely trusting in "Another's work" (Christ's finished work of redemption). Romans 3:24 - being justified freely by His grace...

    Is faith apart of works?

    Faith is not just another work in a series of works in a quest to receive salvation by works. (Romans 4:5-6; Ephesians 2:8,9; Titus 3:5; 2 Timothy 1:9)

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    Mary was a virgin at the conception and the birth of Jesus, her first-born son. However, the perpetual virginity of Mary is not taught in the Bible. This belief is an invention of human tradition. The Virgin Mary

    There are no Catholics in Heaven.

    God saves us individually. "Whoever" believes in Him.. (John 3:16). Believers make up the body of Christ (Ephesians 1:13; Colossians 1:18,24). There are certain churches that teach false gospels, which will lead all of those to their doom, who strictly follow the teachings of those churches, but...

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    Becoming born again and receiving the washing of regeneration/spiritual washing/purification of the soul is accomplished by the Holy Spirit (Who is the source of living water) through the word of God at the moment of salvation. (John 3:5; 4:10,14; 7:37-39; Ephesians 5:26; Titus 3:5; 1 Peter...

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    When we are "born again" or "born from above," the Holy Spirit begets new life, divine life, so that we are said to become "partakers of the divine nature." (2 Peter 1:4) The new birth is brought to pass through "incorruptible seed, by the Word of God, which lives and abides forever" (I Peter...

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    2 Corinthians 4:3 - But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which BELIEVE NOT.. The gospel is the "good news" of the death, burial and resurrection of Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) and is the power of God unto...

    John MacArthur says you have nothing to do with being "born again"

    We are born again because we obey the gospel by choosing to believe the gospel. Romans 10:16 - But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”

    The Ten Commandments—What happened?

    In regards to Matthew 5:20 - "unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven," this statement from Jesus would certainly come as a shock to the multitude of people who had great admiration for the...
