    Is believing/faith a work ?

    Robert Harbach wrote: If faith is a condition unto my salvation which I must fulfill, if faith must originate with me, then my salvation is by works — and that excludes me — for all my works are filthy rags! Faith must be the gift of God so that I can believe! If I may believe through grace...

    The Atonement: What did it REALLY Accomplish?

    It effects a Life unto Serving God ! Its a shame how many so called preachers of the Gospel, the Cross of Christ, are so in the dark as to what His Death or Cross Work accomplished for all those He died for. Many don't believe that His death accomplished more than a chance to get saved...

    Is believing/faith a work ?

    Is making a decision a work ? Yes to make a decision is a work, no not a physical activity you do with say your hands, arms, legs or body muscles and mass, but a mental work, labor.
