    Forgiveness is to those who keep the commandments of the Lord.

    I never said you was f course according to James. One can have 1 work and his faith would not be dead (no wrks plus 1 work = works) So again, can we get our focus off works and put it on faith, where it belongs once again we are talking about HOW one gets saved not what a truly saved person...

    1. I did not judge anyone 2. You where the one who judged someone, I tried to show you how you misread him 3. I have eternal life, if you want conditional life. Feel free. I will not stop you, neither will God,

    Your stuck on works Let’s stick to faith. Because we are saved by grace through faith, not of works, lest anyone should boast, works has no part in salvation, period.

    Yep but that does not mean one must work to earn salvation a true christian will work BECAUSE they are saved they do not work to get saved, james spoke to people who claimed to have faith only, he never said they had faith, he called their faith dead. A dead faith has never saved anyone...

    Nope. You twisted the passage. and by the way, if my gospel was so easy, you would accept it, that fact you deny it shows how hard it is. I recommend you stop with the snide comments and just stick with the word.. What is sad I added johns words in his epistle which proved my point, and...

    This is the second time you have accused me of something not true, I pray you humble yourself, otherwise you just show your true colors You work for a reward. By claiming you must work, your claiming you must earn salvation a gift is freely given not earned by works.

    Thanks for making it so easy Romans 11:6 And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work grace is unmerited, it is a gift, paid for by the giver, you work for a wage, or a...

    John 1:1 looked at HONESTLY!

    Who said Jesus was born a sinner? And born again in Hell? How do you get that from what I said? Give me a break man. My sins were imputed to him. So he could pay for them. He was not born a sinner. You seem to have a comprehension problem.

    No. He never said such a thing. Salvation is one event which happens at a point of time. It is achieved by grace through faith. Works are a part of sanctification. the fruit of salvation. Not the cause of salvation. Eternal life is the promise of God. If you do not have eternal life. You...

    Where did he say he was without works?

    Forgiveness is to those who keep the commandments of the Lord.

    Yes, The people James spoke of were hearers of the word not doers. They CLAIMED to have faith. But their life did not show the byproduct of faith which all people who have true saving faith have, which is works. They become hearers as well as doers. James is not telling them faith plus works...

    Forgiveness is to those who keep the commandments of the Lord.

    Your issue is this is a descriptive passage not a prescriptive. Gods people do good works. As a result of their salvation. Not to earn salvation. Those not born of God have no works. Their works are evil. because even when they do a good deed. It is of the flesh which is sin. John tells us...

    Actually no. Jesus words and yours are different. Jesus did not tell us to earn our salvation. If we could earn it, he would not have had to die.

    Forgiveness is to those who keep the commandments of the Lord.

    Grace and works do not mix. It is either of grace or it is of works. You can't do one work which will cause God to forgive you of one sin, Let alone the many sins you have against your account. As paul said. Not of works of righteousness (good deeds) which we have done but by his mercy You...

    John 1:1 looked at HONESTLY!

    Only someone who was God would even consider this you have it backwards he was before Abraham, he was not a created being at his birth so what was he? An angel?

    John 1:1 looked at HONESTLY!

    Yes because that was the penalty of sin that’s why Christ had to suffer spiritual death to pay for sin. the father and the spirit turned their backs on Jesus, because they can not look on the sin that was placed on him, for the first time in eternity, the bond between the father and spirit and...
