    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    You are incorrect about initial salvation. No one was saved by belief without obedience. Not one example in all the bible teaches this. You are incorrect about James' teachijg. James taught salvation comes only by an obedient faith, James 2:14 ; 2:24-26. James gives us the example of Abraham...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    You cannot give an answer to your error. How are these Jewish disciples already christians before they heard and believed in the death, burial and ressurection of Christ, 1Corinthians 15:1-4? You have given no explanation. You err every time you claim these Jews can be christians before they...

    Conscience vs Holy Spirit

    Calvinism has no assurance of salvation. Honest calvinist's will question their salvation until judgment day. The reason is, in calvinism you can do absolutely nothing to be saved. Therefore it is not up to you. Since, you cannot do anything at all. Then, no one knows for sure if God has...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    You do not believe the scriptures Sir, Acts 11:26 First called Christians at Antioch

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    You need to learn the order in which things occurred in the history of the Bible. The gentiles were not saved by Jesus' gospel until Acts 10. Show me one gentile Christian before Acts 10? The gentiles could convert to Judaism in the old testament. Then they became part of Gods people. You...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    You gave no answer! 2Peter 3:16, ....which untaught and unstable men twist to their own destruction as they do the rest of the Scriptures. You are cursed, Galatians 3:10

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    Yes, no way could a person who believes we are bound by the old covenant have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. They are to ignorant of the Spirit's revelation.

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    Error, A person in the gospels that was a disciple of Christ, was in fact Jews under old Mosaical law. No disciple of Jesus became a born again Christian until Jesus' new covenant come into force, Acts chapter 2. You have a huge problem Sir. You have the Jews being bound by the new covenant...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Go read where the Ephesians obeyed the gospel in Acts 19:1-7. You will learn the Ephesians did not get saved by faith only. In fact they did not receive the Holy Spirit until after they were baptized! Ephesians 2:8-9 is teaching no works of merit save man. Not that no works of any kind play a...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    Answer my question. How were the disciples of Jesus in Luke 23:54-56 already Christians? How? They had not believed in the gospel, 1Corinthians 15:1-4! They could not believe in Jesus' ressurection. They only believed in Jesus' ressurection when He physically appeared to them. Even then the...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    Baloney! Judaism was nailed to the cross! But Jesus' new covenant did not become binding until Acts chapter 2. There is a simple reason for this, NO ONE HAD YET HEARD THE GOSPEL PREACHED TO THEM BEFORE ACTS 2! It would be unfair for God to hold the Jews under the new covenant, WHEN IT HAD NOT...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    The women and the men who were disciples of Jesus did not believe that Jesus had risen from the dead until Jesus appeared to them. Even, then they were not Christians. They were still jews. Jesus' gospel did not come into effect until the apostles were given the power of the Holy Spirit, Acts...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    As I already said, You do not understand what was taking place in the book of Acts. This is why Paul continued to keep Jewish customs in the book of Acts. One simple reason, to reach the Jews. To win the jews to Christ. The jews knew Who Paul was. Paul was famous. If Paul had not followed...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    Answer my question, How can these disciples of Christ already be christians when they have no way of believing in Jesus' gospel? To be saved in Jesus' gospel one must believe in the death, burial and ressurection of Jesus Christ, 1Corinthians 15:1-4. No one before Jesus' ressurection could...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Nowhere in John 21 did Peter rebel against Jesus. Nowhere in Acts 10 did Peter not obey the commandment to preach to the first gentile convert, Cornelius. Peter was confused by the vision, that is all. You do not know the laws the Jews had to follow with non-jews. No jew until Cornelius went to...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    The passage gives me peace. Jesus' gospel did not come into effect, ie in force until the testator died. None of Jesus' disciplles were chtistians before Jesus' death nor immediately after His death. It was not until Jesus ROSE FROM THE DEAD, that His new covenant, His gospel went into force...

    "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."

    As Paul said the old law kept brings a curse on all who do not keep all of it, Galatians 3:10. You never heard such and idea from me. Where are you coming from? That would be Jesus' new law we keep today, Galatians 6:2 ? Quote me where I said Christmas and Easter are in the commandments of...
