    Let not man accuse you

    No man/woman can stop sinning in the flesh. If that were possible Jesus would not have had to shed His blood on a cross to pay for the sins of the whole world. Since man can not stop sinning because of his/her sinful nature the only way that God could save a person is by doing it Himself. He...

    John 3:5... YES! ANOTHER BAPTISM THREAD!

    WATER BAPTISM: Two places in the Bible that I do not feel support baptismal regeneration (water baptism necessary for salvation) are as follows. 1 Pet 3:18-22 (NIV) 18 For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in...

    John 3:5... YES! ANOTHER BAPTISM THREAD!

    Is water baptism required: What Paul teaches is that there are NO physical rituals, ceremonies, (physical works) required under the gospel of the grace of God given to him by Jesus. All the works required for salvation God completed on the cross and man cannot add to them. Salvation is a free...

    ADDING WORKS:

    What seems to be obvious is that those that teach a child of God MUST have works to show their faith have hung the statement of James that “faith without works is dead” around the necks of those “IN CHRIST” who believe in Jesus‘ work on the cross. To these we are just required to keep the law...

    God covers us with His righteousness:

    Isaiah 61:10 10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. NKJV It is...

    “THE RELIGION BOX”

    If you can see it, religion is a box that men of religion have built. It was built by Emperor Constantine in about AD300. It was called the “Roman Catholic Church” Their doctrine was established on a mixture of law, grace and what ever they could come up with to get people to come into it...

    The Gospel of Grace:

    The Gospel was changed by God: The failure or refusal to discern the Pauline Gospel as a separate and new revelation, and not a “development from Judaism,” accounts for two-thirds of the confusion in many people’s minds today as regards just what the Gospel is. Paul’s Gospel will suffer no...

    The Gospel of Grace:

    All scriptures from the NKJV After studying the Scriptures for over 60 years and writing many articles contradicting the writings of those that place their faith in their religions and religious practices, I have concluded that most will not believe what I write here. However, I am going to...

    JESUS AND THE TWELVE PREACHED A DIFFERENT GOSPEL

    My reply was to bbyrd009. It was not intend to write a book.

    JESUS AND THE TWELVE PREACHED A DIFFERENT GOSPEL

    Normally I do not reply to what you write. But here is your answer to my standing in fear of my Heavenly Fathers judgments. Rom 4:13-15 13 For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. 14 For...

    JESUS AND THE TWELVE PREACHED A DIFFERENT GOSPEL

    All very true. But because of unbelief on the part of Israel God saw that no one could keep the law and that most did not believe what God said so God came to the rescue of man by doing all that is necessary for their salvation on the cross where God (Jesus) paid for the sins of all mankind...

    ADDING WORKS:

    You have made many replies to the OP that started this thread. You use the writing of James and hang it around the necks of the Children of God. You completely ignore that James was writing to the JEWS ONLY (James 1:1). The religious use it so that you can glory in their works. No child of...

    ADDING WORKS:

    If you love Jesus you will shout from the roof tops about WHAT HE DID FOR MANKIND ON THE CROSS.

    ADDING WORKS:

    JBF, nothing in your replies negates what I said in reply #52

    ADDING WORKS:

    In that sermon He said to be perfect. Are you claiming to be perfect by your obedience to the law? You can claim that you are obedient to the law but the scripture says those who do are liars. Matt 5:48 48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect. NKJV Only...

    ADDING WORKS:

    And you don't love Jesus if you discount His payment for the sins of the whole world. If you loved Him you would have faith, belief, trust, and confidence in what He did on the cross. That is what obedience is today under grace.

    ADDING WORKS:

    It looks to me that some want everyone to believe they are so wonderful that they couldn't possibly commit a sin. Therefore they no longer need Jesus' work on the cross. Those that proclaim a person has to obey the law are oblivious to the fact that no man or women can keep them. They...

    ADDING WORKS:

    Okay, they tell us what sin is, Now what?

    ADDING WORKS:

    I already have it right.

    ADDING WORKS:

    Jesus upheld the law FOR US. Rom 3:19-24 19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the...
