    What does the Bible say about Grace and Good Works?

    Amen! Luke 18:9 - Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank You that I am...

    What does the Bible say about Grace and Good Works?

    That is correct brother. :) It's not about promoting sinful living or a TV show at all.

    What does the Bible say about Grace and Good Works?

    Salvation by works appeals to man’s pride and forms the basis of other religions, except for Biblical Christianity. The natural or unregenerate man (1 Corinthians 2:14) does not fully understand the extent of his own sinfulness and absolute need for a Savior. (Ecclesiastes 7:20; Romans 3:10-12...

    Sinless Perfectionism

    "Professing" (nominal) Christians out number genuine Christians by far and there are those as well who seem to be suffering from a terminal case of self righteousness. (1 John 1:8-10)

    Sinless Perfectionism

    Those are not characteristic traits of children of God. (1 John 3:9,10)

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    Ephesians 2:8 - For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved...

    Is believing/faith a work ?

    Amen! This confirms that one is a child of God. 1 John 1:6 - If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son...

    Of course he does as do ALL works-salvationists, including Roman Catholics, Mormons and Campbellites, just to name a few.

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    Our victory over sin is found only in Christ. (Acts 26:18; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21; Philippians 3:9)

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    Yes, and I'm sure that most of us have and this truly was a critical salvation moment for this young man.

    The Godly Heresy of Sinless Perfectionism

    It makes self promoters (like the Pharisee in the parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector in Luke 18:9-14) who trust in themselves, that they are righteous and look down on others, feel really good about themselves. The heart of the issue for such people is PRIDE.
