    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    I already showed you the verse in Hebrews 10:26. Imagine a theology where both is true: there is a sin that no sacrifice covers AND there is hope in forgiveness and salvation. And that my friend, brings us to the OP. We have hope and faith, which is living with grace despite lacking certain...

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Wrong by half. Did Jesus say his real brothers are: A. those no matter how they act; OR B. those who act a certain way (in compliance with the will of God the Father)?

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    You say you understand it but they show that you don't. All of our hopes are in Christ. See above. There appears to be a stronghold in disregarding your action of receiving the grace of God, the sin that not even Jesus sacrifice covers. You say you understand but continue to write of a half...

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Brilliant. I've founded IDOLATRY in such doctrines, using coded words, which deny synonyms and other apt metaphors. Over-spiritualized people today want to believe in a feminized Jesus, where he is sugar and spice and everything nice. He came to save the world from sin, not be used as an IDOL...

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Again, only half the Gospel. "Receive" is another verb, which cannot be thought of as one and done because Hebrews tells us another verb, action on our part, has no sacrifice to cover. Jesus does as he promised but we do not is not his failure.

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Really side steps the question of our burden in keeping the faith, remaining in him, abiding in him. Burden on us on an ongoing basis is stated over and over again in different ways. Jesus acknowledge we are part of the Kingdom, a branch. However, if we do not produce fruit ... our fate is not...

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Nope. Hope. Certainty in what action will be taken by another. Not the same. If you can't understand that, I feel sorry for you.

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    This is half the Gospel. The other half is those who don’t abide in Christ, those who call him Lord but he never knew, those who are not his brothers BECAUSE they don’t do the will of the Father. Your theology undermines the only way to please God - through faith. There is a saying; keep the...

    What denial, to be arrogant about what your entitled to is a good thing?

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    I think the question is of the Adversary. A trap. I don't know how many times I've answered the question to well meaning evangelists who proceeded to bash me for giving a humble answer. There is no example in Scripture of Christ admonishing the humble for being humble. Others attempt to twist...

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Not answering my question does not answer it; Is Paul your Lord and Savior? The Messiah said IF we remain in him, he'll remain in us. This destroys your theology of OSAS and false justification no matter what we do. Although there should be no doubt, Hebrews 10:26 makes explicit the folly of...

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Your reference to doth not comport with whateth we speaketh todayeth. Project, you do, your error on who disagrees with youest. Seriously, the long list of commands, warnings, and evidences @faithhopecharity provided TOTALLY supports the idea that heaven will not be breached by lip service. Who...

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    yes. A church I attended had a saying. Give until it feels good not until it hurts. Dialing it back, I now feel energized rather than depleted.

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Are you playing is? Everyone knows the live chapter, the greatest is love. Ironic that you bash others for not reading closely enough. Putting that aside, what point iud your unique theology trying to make here regarding confidence and humility?

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    It's more the opposite. I have faith my car is where I left it this morning. Going out to the parking lot, I see my car there, which replaces my faith with knowledge I'm confident in. Another one who confuses faith with confidence. One can be confident in what they know. Applying "confidence"...

    I agree. Our friend @marks has a unique theology.

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Good quote. What can be more humble than declaring with certainty, what another person will do - not in general, but as it pertains to what column he'll put you in?

    How Confidant Are You Being Saved?

    Don’t hijack another thread. This thread has NOTHING to do with saving ourselves. You don’t think it’s arrogant for a saved person to say they are certain they are saved? Seems to me anyone saying that doesn’t possess the first divine quality; humility. Switching faith with confidence here...

    Trump and Politics

    Funny how quiet the Left was about Epstein when they had full control of the government. The idea that there is some file that is damaging to Trump the Left chose not to use it is laughable. I've come to the conclusion that there is not so much sex trafficking as there is child pornography...

    If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?

    No, it doesn't. The problem with the OSAS crowd is they treat as equal 2 groups, those who remain faithful and those who don't. Then they invoke a Post Hoc fallacy that if they didn't remain faithful, they were never saved to begin with. This is why there are so many of Christs words that prove...
