It's not a matter of doing something more. If we have faith, we also are happy to obey. If we are Not happy to obey, there's something wrong. Our obedience is a sign of our love for God. When we do not obey, we ask forgiveness and continue our walk with Him. This is different than living a life...

Just something that came to mind... But I can't remember why.

I hear the opposite of love is fear, not hate.

I don't feel guilty. I'm just talking,,,I like to hear what others think. No ill feelings toward anyone. Even when I don't agree.

Those who believe their works could save them are wrong. Only God could justify us. To justify means to make right with God. Only Jesus could make us right with God. His plan from the beginning...salvation through the atonement, which could only be accomplished by God,,,Jesus. So does this...

This is correct. Question is: .What are the works of the law? We of the New Covenant are under grace, not law.

God said we are to ask forgiveness for our sins. That means we sin. Hypergrace says we do not. Hypergrace says God is Insulted if we ask forgiveness. I hope you don't agree with hypergrace.

You deserve a commendation!

Tomorrow.

Yes, well, I knew you'd go here, which is why I mentioned that Paul spoke of THE prize, not one of the crowns.

Interesting observation.

Right. Paul also said that HE was afraid of not making it to heaven! 1 Corinthians 9:27. THE prize , not a prize,,,,,The prize is heaven.

If you read the scriptures you're quoting, you'll find that they are referring to you after you die, not now. Right now you are corruptible. On a mobile, sorry I can't do better right now.

LOL This is too sweet!! My eureka moment was about forty years ago.

Well, we have some here who say they never sin, And we have those who say we could not lose our salvation even if we return to a life of sin. Neither is true.

Read post no. 2252 And it's not the first time I've heard this.

I hope @Rollo Tamasi sees this post. You say sin cannot separate us from God. The scripture you had posted is 2 Corinthians 10:5 Why won't you explain it? Jesus said that those who practice lawlessness will not enter into heaven...they will be told to depart from Him. Do you not agree with...

There are those that say we can sin and still be saved. Is this a problem to you?

You're not able to explain a verse that you posted? Why did you post it??

When we don't obey God, we're sinning. When we damage our body, the temple of the Holy Spirit, we're sinning. When we hurt another human being, we're sinning. When we damage nature, which we're supposed to be stewards of, we're sinning.
