I am trying to have a dialogue (conversation) with you. Sometimes long rambling post can be confusing. What about children who die before the age of reason? Let's say at the age of 10? Do they go to heaven? Can a non-Christian go to heaven? I feel like my point is pretty clear :( Sincer Mary

Fair enough FHII. Do infants go to heaven? Curious Mary

The frontal lobe executive functions is responsible for things such as planning for the future, judgment, decision-making skills, attention span, and inhibition. You are saying that President Trump is IMAIRED in all 5 of those areas?

Hi FHII, I never said they "counter grace through faith". Are we talking about "grace through faith" or Sola Fide? You have me confused....again. Mary

The discussion is about instituinlized racism and poverty. Not us as individuals. No....that is not not what tribalism means. You should have put your famous IMO after your statement. Let me help you: Dictionary by Merriam-Webster: America's most-trusted online dictionary Mary

Dear FHII, You were the first to mention Isaac to me in post #47. I have only responded to what YOU have said. I don't think I have switched anything....but maybe I am missing something here! Before we dig deeper I just want to make sure I understand what you believe. What is a person...

I agree, we are saved through faith in Jesus. Mary

Hi Armadillo, Grace is Jesus? So God can't show grace? I can't show grace to you? Only Jesus can? Curious Mary

I think we are in agreement. Your "If Abraham had died 10 minutes after being declared righteous...." statement sealed the deal. For the AVERAGE person and 99.9% of the Christians on earth...FAITH ALONE does not save you. There must be works...like scripture says. I appreciate your honesty. Mary

Armadillo, Here is a cut and paste from what YOU provided: for by grace have ye been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, [it is] the gift of God. Can you please show me where it says By faith alone you have been saved? The gift of God is GRACE. Faith is what you have to provide...

Dear Armadillo, You can tell me but it won't matter. Whether he was speaking to an atheist or a Jew or a recently convertred Jew to Christianity the message is the same: by works a man is justified, and not only by faith. If a man who recently learned of Jesus didn't have time to do "the...

No argument here sir. You are completely and utterly wrong in your belief about annihilationism and I don't think I could say anything that would change your mind about this recent theory or misinterpretation of scripture so I will let it go. Thank you for your articulate responses on...

Hi FHII, I don't think I ever said that Isaac being offered up was being discussed in Romans 4. If I have please quote me. I am looking at ALL OF SCRIPTURE. The fullness of scripture. Once again: Hebrews 11:17 says: 'By faith Abraham, when put to the test, offered up Isaac.' When he offered...

That passage says 'by grace' you have been saved. It does not say by faith alone. Have you another passage? Curious Mary

Hi Armadillo, So what am I to do with James 2:14-26 which says, in part: You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. Act like it was never said? Mary

Armadillo, I agree with you. We are righteous by our faith. But by faith ALONE? Mary

Good point. I agree with you. It probably is a simultaneous event. You have me very confused. I am not sure we are on the same page. Hebrews 11:17 says: 'By faith Abraham, when put to the test, offered up Isaac.' But you say though it speaks of Abrahams faith, it is not about him offering up...

But only one makes it to heaven.

Thank you. I never asked about mans law. Mans law has nothing to do with Gods law so I don't understand how you are equating the two. The good thief, like David, admitted his sin. The good thief was then told that today you shall be with me in paradise. So, ONCE AGAIN, we have a confession...

You make excellent points and use scripture to back it up. I appreciate that. David confessed his sin, fasted and prayed. If the robber/murderer never confesses his sin, fasted and prayed are they guilty of murder and will they go to hell? Curious Mary
