I like what you wrote but disagree. Although the plane departs in the future, I have the ticket now. We have the ticket now even though we do not need it until later, Judgment Day. We can be confident of our future now, boldly approaching the throne of God. 3 Blessed is God, the Father of our...

You are in denial. What you are in denial of is RECEIVED but later Rejected. For if we deliberately go on sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, Hebrews 10:26

No sir! What I said is in perfect alignment with Acts 4:12.

Well, that was not my question. My question was about the relationship between REAL faith and actions. “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. Matthew 7:21

While I saw it the same way, there may have been some exchanges with the moderators that made his maturity level clearer - and insufficient for the intent of this forum.

I already did. If you disregard Jesus' words on salt losing its flavor, a vine that is not productive destined for the fire, and not all that call him lord, lord, bless your heart.

I know there is a lot of definitions thrown around in this thread. My pastor recently differentiated between faith and belief. Belief is not tied to action but faith is. Is this the meaning you had in mind in using the word faith in the above post?

Yes, it does. Scripture indeed teaches that salvation can be lost. This is the meaning of Jesus talking about salt that has lost its flavor or vines that do not produce fruit are meant for the fire. How do you construe these verses to NOT mean salvation can be lost?

Not sure how you come to this conclusion. Are you referring to practicing Christians or in name only? Do you have a link to a statistical study? Does this study delve into Christian women being too heavy handed with men? I do. There is a verse that says man is the glory of God but women are...

How does the shoe fit to say women have to earn being loved?

Why is it OK to talk about men in this thread but not women?

Do you mean idolatry?

Absolutely not! That is feminist dogma. If you read Ephesians there is no conditions in the covenant for either man or woman.

I think the problem is that some women do NOT know what respecting and submitting to their husbands means... Cases of abuse of Christian men by their wives is a prevalent phenomenon I believe. Most people don't get abusive when you do what they want. See arrest by police with and without being...

I'm not sure of the full context of your statement but I wanted to give you some encouragement. I watched an outstanding set of video's during a week long seminar on marriage. One day covered the responsibilities of the man. The next day covered the responsibilities of the woman. The pastor...

You do realize ‘can be’ is mere potential and not at all the same as ‘is the case.’ If it were, then universalism is correct doctrine.

You do realize a prerequisite to sitting at the right hand of God is that being cannot be God, right?

We covered this already. An exclamation is not a statement of fact. If someone shows me their cracked and non-functional cell phone and I say, “oh crap” that does not mean I am declaring the cell phone to be crap.

To quote a great song; if you can’t be with the ones you love, love the ones you are with.

I do recall reading that. I forget the term but it is possible to sin but not know it is a sin. This is different from knowing something is a sin and doing it anyway.
