The devil believes in the finished work on the cross. That belief isn't important to get you anywhere..

That is wrong. The righteous are righteous in God's eyes...otherwise they would be just hypocrites. When the bible says "righteous" ...that's what it means. Don't add a false interpretation.

Welcome to the thread...you will hear a lot of these kind of illogical statements posing as truth. :)

The rich young ruler....obeyed the commandments all his life (he was righteous)....so Jesus called him to follow Him into holiness. But that was too far...for this man.

If we can't understand righteousness on the human level...how will we ever understand what God's righteousness means? Jer. 12:5"If you have run with footmen and they have tired you out, Then how can you compete with horses? If you fall down in a land of peace, How will you do in the thicket of...

Jesus did not come to call the righteous to repent...just the sinners. The ones who are already healthy have no need of a doctor. (Luke 5:32) So simple...but the religious can't stand the truth. Go learn what this means (Mat. 9:13)

This is a defense of God's righteousness...against those who lift themselves up as being righteous. So this is against the religious ones.

Acts 10:22 22The men replied, "We have come from Cornelius the centurion. He is a righteous and God-fearing man, who is respected by all the Jewish people. A holy angel told him to ask you to come to his house so that he could hear what you have to say." This is BEFORE he heard the gospel. He...

All this to people who are already Christians.

Actually that fruit is from the religion tree. We can do things in our own strength....but we are weak. People mix up evil with weakness. Without Christ ALL people are weak...but not all are evil. Some are righteous. God calls the righteous into His holiness....and sinners are called to repent.

Anything spiritual will appear as nonsense to you. Step back and look at how religious you are.

That's how you misunderstand God and fall into the trap...the religion trap. It is the false gospel...

I am correcting churchy traditions. I am teaching what is actually found in the bible. AND I have the spiritual experience to know the actual grace of God. So I have 2 coordinates to speak from.

Imputed righteousness is OUR righteousness that God recognizes. To impute means to attribute. So then God's righteousness is IMPUTED to God. We can receive God's righteousness by putting ON Christ. But that righteousness is still imputed to Him. The actions that we do IN Christ are imputed to...

How many go down the path to the "dark side" of religion....with all that imputed righteousness nonsense? It makes a person religious to think that his own belief gives him the right to call himself righteous. The road to self-righteousness I call it. A righteous man does NOT consider himself...

This is what I'm trying to show is not the truth. God accepts those who work righteousness. Before God visits them. So you have the order backwards. God accepts the righteous....and calls sinners to repent. Those that work righteousness are already healthy...as Jesus said. You only have...

Even if you don't know you're doing it... actually...so much the better if you don't! :)

We are only holy by entering into Jesus to walk as He walked. We "put on " Christ to be holy. "saving yourself through works" is not a catch-all for everyone who isn't OSAS. That is a strawman.

Let no one take away from the simplicity which is of Christ. No need to judge others. Just love and be a light in the world. God does the rest.
