you will have to forgive me, You posts are so close to fatalistic thinking, I can not tell you apart. Fatalists think exactly what I said is true. which is why I asked you

I am sorry, By saying things like this I just can not continue.. Good luck in your quest of whatever your trying to do. I will stick to the word of God

This is not true Many hear believe works are required to maintain salvation. They just do not see or admit it

continued I do not know all these things To me a christian is anyone who claims to follow Christ. If we look in the gospels. Anyone who followed christ were called disciples. Now of course, we learned that not all disciples were true believers. In the same token, not all people who claim to be...

When you confess something, You go and admit you have done something, ie, You go to a judge, or go to your parents, and confess or state what you did wrong. we call it take ownership. To repent means to change direction or change your mind. If I was committing a sin, and I did not think that...

Amen they demand works are required. But when push comes to shove, they do not know how many works will ensure they are saved,

yes I agree But if your doing these good deeds to maintain salvation. Your no different than those in the OT trying to earn Gods love by following a law they could never truly follow. And in doing so. you will fail to meet Gods demands, just as they did (see gal 3)

Prove it The penalty of sin is death, What work can overcome death? Paul. not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, (titus 3: 5) Paul Now to him who works, the wages are not...

your reading an English interpretation do you sin?

Like I Said, that covenant was made a nation and said to be an eternal promise,,has eternity ended? I have asked you about Lev 26 multiple times, why have you yet to mention it

So you think they are sinless? that passage says they do not live in sin, you like like we did in our old nature

Salvation has always been by faith, no one was saved by the old, that’s why the new had to be made but I am not talking about the salvation promises God made specific promises which had nothing to do with salvation according to Lev 26 do they still stand
