@Sabertooth So how do you think the poll votes are going so far? :)

@ReChoired FYI....did you see/vote in the poll, above? (sorry, don't remember if I asked you before)

@ReChoired I don't see that those who live and die in unbelief - whatever their profession - were ever truly justified by faith.

@ReChoired He never lost his salvation, right?

@AlsoAnne There are some threads on favorite Scriptures; Psalms, etc.

Great avatar photo there @AlsoAnne

I'm not arguing for being saved then lost then saved and supposedly keeping up the sacrifices...

@Michiah-Imla We indeed increase our assurance of faith - a great theme. There is however never any doubt in the sight of God of a true believer's eternal security, because He sees believers in Christ, on account of His finished work at the Cross.

It's good to remember that for the believer and his or her relation to the work of Christ eternal security is a given. These is no sense of someone being saved, then lost on Thursday, then saved again on Friday and if s/he keeps it up may stay saved over the weekend (this is how priestcraft...

It then speaks of declaring "at this time" his righteousness; the past referred to the time witnessed by the law and by the prophets, verse 21.

@John Caldwell From back; a lot of young Christians seem to head for the tattoo parlor and have it done without seeming regret, especially if it's faith based. The numbers of those getting it done shot up when women also started doing it more widely. Did you vote in the poll, above, BTW?

@John Caldwell It's the lyrics that really count; the style is more subjective.

@Ziggy Actually some older women seem to like to put red or blue streaks in their hair. (My wife doesn't color hers any more, though. She did do maroon at one stage.) Double ear piercing, though, has been around for decades that often it's older women who have had their doubles for 40 years.

@Ziggy True faith produces works. Good passages there!

@Michiah-Imla The true believer is never going to be lost, though. Romans speaks of 'obedience to the faith' and 'the obedience of faith'. True faith produces works; but it is faith that justifies.

@Michiah-Imla "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin." i.e., continues to cleanse us from all sin; this is what I had in mind.

@Christophany Faith produces works; it is not a requirement to achieve faith.

@Mantis FYI...do you have a favorite Psalm?
