    We are judged by works, not by faith

    No one is justified by doing works of the LAW, they are justified in faith in Christ -> and Good works that God creates them for is performed by and through Spirit -> The credit goes towards God, not man (saying look Lord how good I am), Faith and works will be evidence of a changed life from...

    Our souls apart from our bodies

    It's good to know it is all your opinion, @Aunty Jane it cuts a lot of the pressure of responding as you believe how you do. A question though I would like to know though is, Where do you expect or hope to go when you die?

    It's Getting Real Folks

    From my standpoint, I am all about people having the ability to obtain health care. Doesn't have to do with submitting anyone as their Lord? And why does Paul even suggest subjecting oneself to governing authorities, such as Nero who came around the same time the Letter of Rome was written by...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    Truth is the bottom line. I dont go on about once saved always saved, as the bible has plenty of evidence of people backsliding, even becoming unbelieving from once believing. I dont know what you think about that friend, it's not up to me to judge. Peace be unto you, and love to you, carry...

    World Powers Are Revealing UFO's as Real

    While people can talk about aliens, even enjoy shows like Star Trek. None of the recent news impresses me, its just something new for people to talk about which has been talked about for many, many years. A friend of mine a long time ago, who used a lot of meth, told me a lot of aliens, even...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    One more thing, I think a lot of what Paul suggests to the Gentile - about not being justified by works are works of the LAW, not works that God had created them to do. its important to know the difference... I hate for people to be in the dark on these things, and I believe Ghada is in the...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    There is also this scripture James 2:25 And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? How was she justified in faith - by works of love... So it's hard to tear apart Faith - and Works. Jesus makes...

    Anyone else who would like to add?

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    Yeah no one is saying that here. What is being said though is that what you allow yourself to go through with Yahava in your life - at the end of it will be rewarded spiritually. It is not based on the fleshly experience of life at all, Look at me look what I do, look what I did for you...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    Hello rapture, I tried to answer your question on #66 People can lose deliverance - by no longer seeking out God in faith, and no longer looking at the Lord Yeshua who is the way to the Father. Christians who do this without turning completely from God - are liable to quench the spirit. You...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    Redux. Jesus Christ -> leads to deliverance -> from a former old lifestyle. With now Spirit of Christ in you -> you allow God to work in your heart and mind -> that means your faith is valid cause you show love for God and love for others. What one reaps they sow, God will not be mocked. All...

    Jesus and his Beauty, Was Jesus ever really beautiful?

    Your thoughts are considered, my assumption is as well however there are these paintings that wrongly depict how he looked, such as white, with blue eyes and it kind of creates a false persona of who he was. Someone which there was no beauty to hold about him. He might have had some crooked...

    Mental Disorder of LGBT: Analysis - Spiritual, Political and Scientific

    @BarneyFife People just hate people... because of what they do. It's a disease, and the only solution for the hate is love... and that only comes from the true solution. Yeshua.

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    You make some great points, sometimes I just let myself go ahead and do whatever it may be. It's all personal cause God looks at the heart, and the communing is there. If Paul says everything is lawful, but not everything helpful. Some things do need to be cast down right away when it leads...

    Split within the Southern Baptist Church

    Adam most likely had an obligation to protect eve. Eve was beguiled, but Adam sinned. 2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 1 Timothy 2:14 And it was not Adam...

    Jesus and his Beauty, Was Jesus ever really beautiful?

    No worries friend. There will be a glory and a resurrection given to each member of the body of Christ who follow to seek and love God and others, so Amen to that.

    Jesus and his Beauty, Was Jesus ever really beautiful?

    according to Isaiah there was no beauty to behold. There is no [c]beauty that we should desire Him.
