Sure, let someone else have a chance to waste their time with you.

You must be confusing me with someone else. We’ve had multiple discussions about Pisteuo on Christian Chat and you were the disappearing artist. Good luck with your make believe world of faithing.

I don’t need luck, I have Jesus Christ as my Savior! I trust in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as the ALL-sufficient means of my salvation. Praise the Lord! :)

In Hebrews 10:26, to "sin willfully" in the Greek carries the idea of deliberate intention that is habitual, which stems from rejecting the Lord deliberately, which would be a matter of practice. Now we don't walk along our daily life and "accidentally" sin. We exercise our will but, the use of...

Who said the candlestick represents salvation for the church at Ephesus? In regards to the church in Ephesus, the Lord wanted the members of that church to repent (change their minds) about their attitudes regarding their works. "You have left your first love/repent and do the first works."...

Salvation is not probation. Eternal life is not temporary life. Jesus is the door. He is not a revolving door.

Acts 13:39 - and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.

John 1:12 is attached with "a personal surrender to Him" in Vine's definition. John 1:12 - But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name. There is the personal surrender to Him. When we choose to believe in/have faith in Christ...

I have a Strong's expanded exhaustive concordance of the Bible and Pisteuo #4100 says - to have faith (in, upon, or with respect to, a person or thing), to entrust (especially one's spiritual well being to Christ). It goes on to say, Pisteuo means not just to believe, (READ THE REST) but also to...

Quite clear indeed. People need to properly harmonize scripture with scripture before reaching their conclusion on doctrine. The harmony of Romans 4:2-4 and James 2:24 is seen in the differing ways that Paul and James use the word "justified." Paul uses the term to describe the legal (judicial)...

Good luck with that one indeed! We cannot save ourselves by the law. (Romans 3:24-28; 10:1-4; Galatians 2:16; 3:1-14; Philippians 3:9; James 2:10) Salvation by "grace plus law, faith plus works" is a perversion of the gospel. (Galatians 1:6-9)

Hebrews 4:9 - So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. (NASB) Notice that the Greek word "sabbatismos" here is used no where else in the Bible. Amazing that Sabbatarians would suggest that this is the word for "keeping the weekly Sabbath" when it is never used anywhere else in the...

Amen! Like these many people in Matthew 7:22 who will say 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? (The correct answer would have been Lord, Lord, didn't YOU die for my sins, was buried and rose again the...

Those who have works are believers, hence sheep. The good works mentioned in Matthew 25:35-36 is the fruit that is manifest in the lives of believers. Those who are placed at Christ's right hand are not there based on the merits of their good works, but because of God's imputed righteousness...

In James 2:14, we read of one who says/claims he has faith but has no works (to validate his claim). That is not genuine faith, but a bare profession of faith. So when James asks, "Can that faith save him?" he is saying nothing against genuine faith, but only against an empty profession of...

Amen! When descriptive passages of scripture get confused with prescriptive passages of scripture, the end result is salvation by works. Good works are the fruit, by product and demonstrative evidence of authentic faith in Christ, but not the essence of faith and not the means or basis by which...

Completely false. No such thing as "faithing" which is a made up word. Even when I spell it out, spell check changes it to "farthing." The word "believer" is Biblical. Acts 5:14 - And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women. (KJV) 1 Timothy 4:12 - Let no...

Amen! John 6:40 - Everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day. John 6:54 - Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. John 6:47 - Most assuredly, I say to you, he...

Amen! God's Word makes it very clear that Sabbath observance was a sign between God and Israel: "The Israelites are to observe the Sabbath, celebrating it for the generations to come as a lasting covenant. It will be a sign between me and the Israelites forever, for in six days the Lord made the...

I recently watched an interesting video on the origin of the Roman Catholic church, which explains how pagan customs flowed into the church.
