    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    "All is vanity." But what was done for the glory of God, "is finished." Now, by doing what once was for His glory, since He has made His glory known...is to deny that "Christ has come in the flesh." 1 John 4:2 The kingdom "is within." Without, is "outer darkness."

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    You obviously have not been paying attention. Christ clarified this, saying “If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple." But we are not talking about not doing good. On the...

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    Indeed. Not that I would call it hierarchy, meaning that some have greater authority. But as you (and Paul) have said.

    Hear, hear!

    Was James confused?

    Yes, I do see. And I would explain that difference as being due to the difference of those they were preaching to. That the Jews were subject to the old covenant while the gentiles of Paul's greater ministry were under the new covenant...that being the dead in Christ under the law, or the living...

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    It is not I who has a problem with the vanity of men (although I join Him), it is God. Notice that I did not take your bait of putting Catholic or Protestant labels on what I said. It is men in their vanity who do, and I do not join them, nor you. Indeed, but what you should have taken or...

    Was James confused?

    Still, it is reasonable of James to have considered and made the point, that the one action should produce a fitting reaction. That would simply make it another look at producing fruit for the kingdom.

    Common Sense

    Yeah, like a really blunt person would just say, "Don't be stupid" or "That's so dumb." ;)

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    You are avoiding the issue, and your position...which you have only just made clear. If you know that we do not clothe ourselves in anything from God, why do Catholics (and others) dress up and lift up their leaders in glory and reverence? I would argue (and have been) that to do so is putting...

    Was James confused?

    That is the simple answer to all this. Well said!

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    Stop calling names! If you understand that we do not cloth ourselves with glory from above, why do you cloth one with glory that is not from above? As for taking all these attempts, it is not me who has taken all this time to get to the reality of my above question, but you. Be glad that I did...

    Racism on parade

    I am not the one inciting violence here. Turning things around and blaming the other party for the very thing you yourself are guilty of seems to be a liberal tactic. Not only are you doing it with the subject at hand, but now you are doing the same to me for calling you on your part in inciting...

    Racism on parade

    The/his bottomline tells the truth. And if you do not agree with the truth... you are not capable of reason. But if I have agreed with the truth to tell you so, will you hate me too?

    Racism on parade

    Because you or anyone calling this racism, may as well be yelling "Fire!" in a theater. You are inciting violence. And it is not the same use of the word as it has historically been used - it's not the correct term at all. It's hate-speech, the incorrect use of terms for a political agenda...

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    Well, you are not being specific enough...try to be more clear. But since you asked about the "one", then it would be the Pope.

    Racism on parade

    In a/the word, No. Not if you call yourself a Christian. If you want to speak against Trump's politics, you are free to do so. But to undermine his effectiveness as a leader, No. Nor, to attack him personally. As for racism in America - this is not racism. This is hate, pure and simple, under...

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    Oh, it's there alright. You just have a way of asking the obvious to make your own point. Well, I am not following you down that path. But since you like questions, I will ask you the same question I asked of you which you have failed to answer. Let me spell it out for you...

    Racism on parade

    That is a bunch of hooey. We are not a racist society, in fact it was my generation that kicked it...and only our last president who brought it back for his own political agenda. Shame on those who now join him in creating division where there was a well established love for all races. Our...

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    So...perhaps all that bold and red text is you actually showing that you yourself have trouble seeing. Because I did answer you, and you are acting like what I wrote is not there, when it is. Again, post #1028 4th and 5th paragraphs. Perhaps you could have someone read it to you.

    Salvation loss. Is it possible?

    What do I have to do, quote myself, to show you the answer I already gave you? I don't thinks so.
