    Salvation in the Last Days: Working Your Way to Heaven?

    Also, no action or obedience by a believer = no Salvation. Salvation is not automatically applied to everyone without the believer's response to the gospel. Jesus for sure died on the Cross making Salvation possible but not automatic and not to everyone, and only to those that believe, have...

    Salvation in the Last Days: Working Your Way to Heaven?

    Salvation isn't Jesus on the cross but is available through Jesus, by his death on the cross is it made possible.

    if a soul is a fusion between body and spirit... and that fusion dies.... whats left ?

    Your initial premise may be a bit off. The two come together to form something else; you become a living soul, a third thing. First of all, what is the soul? Some equate it with the spirit, but that's not correct. Some think that God gives you a soul which is also not correct. See below repost...

    GOD’S Acceptance Is Not About You Or What You Must Do. It Has Always Been About What JESUS Has done For You = Matthew 26;1-2

    You are way off the mark. The gospel is the good news that saves. After hearing the gospel abd only after can you then take action to obey it. The great commission will confirm that without going into any more detail than that Mark 16:15-16 15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world...

    Be Not Afraid, Only Believe = Mark 5:36, Mark 6;50, John 6;20

    Except belief alone is not enough to save your soul.

    GOD’S Acceptance Is Not About You Or What You Must Do. It Has Always Been About What JESUS Has done For You = Matthew 26;1-2

    Are you inferring that no one has to do anything at all to he saved? If so, you are very wrong. We too have a few things that are required of us to achieve salvation. We must obey the gospel which places some burden on us as well.

    Saved by Faith vs Repentance and Obeying the Commandments

    Your rambling words that ssy nothing, not the bible's.

    Infant baptism biblical?

    Further, Acts 5:14 14And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)

    Is baptismal regeneration…

    Infants can't believe, can't confess, have not committed sin so they have no need to repent nor can they, nor can someone make a decision on their behalf to have them baptized. It's all unscriptural and doesn't matter who has done it for however long. It's contrary to the inspired word of God...

    Saved by Faith vs Repentance and Obeying the Commandments

    You are 100% correct. Those that say belief alone is all that's necessary are ignoring many scriptures that say otherwise and are contrary to God's word. BAPTISM Necessity or option? Baptism is required in order to: · Be saved Mark 16:16 “He that believeth and is baptized shall be...

    rejecting Jesus Christ is different from the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.

    True. Repost The unforgivable sin answer is in verse 30 of Mark 3 as relates to verse 22, insinuating that Jesus is in fact aligned with the devil or Beelzebub and his spirit is unclean. Mark 3:22-30 22And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the...

    IS IT A SIN FOR A CHRISTIAN TO VOTE FOR A DEMOCRAT, OR IS IT JUST WRONG??

    Not a sin, but just dumb. Ecclesiastes 10:2 2A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left.

    Acts 2:38 is hidden from Christendom like Jesus is hidden from the blinded Jews

    You are correct. Acts 2:38 is routinely ignored as are other similar scriptures that plainly infer or blatantly state that water baptism is a requirement for salvation, no different than is belief.

    "And I Will Profess Unto Them, I Never Knew...Who, Exactly?"

    How do you become known by God? That's the question, and the answer is quite simple. You have to be HIS, and how is that accomplished? You have to become part of the body of Christ which is his church. And how is that accomplished? You're baptized into Christ, and the Lord adds you to the church...

    The One Baptism

    John's baptism did indeed remit sins as it was "the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins" Luke 3:3, but unlike Acts 2:38, it had to be repeated periodically if new sins occurred no different than atonement under OT law, whereas when you're baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the...

    The Impassable Great Gulf in Hell: No legs to walk with

    The great gulf may not be in hell when you consider the pertinent locations of it and it's counterpart. Hell assumed to be within the earth, but paradise, which is also the 3rd Heaven, is in a heavenly location. So, the great gulf may be between mid earth to some heavenly realm transitioning space.

    How do you do bible study?

    In my view, you must become very familiar with the scriptures first of all so you can be knowledgeable enough to recall scriptures, not necessarily verbatim, but generally what they said and where they may be found, because you must tie scriptures together to get the complete meaning in a great...

    The Unity of the faith.

    Hello. I tend to think this is not related to a future event but rather the past as relates to the early church and the need back then for the various miraculous gifts as noted in 1 Cor 12:8-10. I've done a study on this subject and will post some of this below which ties in 1 Cor, 2 Cor...

    We are eternal beings!

    Not quite. Before we were, we weren't. If we were truly eternal, we would have always existed as God has always existed. Not the case with us.
