Works-salvationists don't understand this and they basically re-define faith to include works. .

Their deception is so deep that they believe they are teaching "faith", when they are teaching works.
They can't see it.
They will say..>"its God's Grace".....and then their next sentence, is "works, works, work, works".

I have never stated that Salvation is anything but God's Grace.
God's Grace is Christ on the Cross.
Is that your works?
But you would add works, your works to the Cross as your Gospel of self righteousness.


Listen, There are no works you can do, that God will accept to accept you.
This is why you have to BELIEVE... so that God will take that faith, and give you forgiveness, and salvation.
I don't think you can follow a logical argument with someone you disagree with. Unless I see some new way by you for twisting Scripture, which I admit you are good at, then I'll not be engaging you anymore.

You are not logical, you are self righteous, according to all your posts.

You just read that God's Grace is """ not by works""" and now you want to go and hide from your own posts that contradicted that Truth.
I dont blame you.
Your comments are ludicrous, your approach to the Grace of God, is to blaspheme it with works, and your theology is very anti-Cross.

You teach that Christ can't keep you saved and pretend this is 'sound doctrine".

Its not, its Cross rejecting heresy.

He can keep ME saved. But that is because I have not been taught the heresy that Christians willfully sin. In fact, you don't even know that not all sin is willful! Don't you realize that what you teach does not bring one to salvation, but to a justification of their sin. And the wages of sin is eternal death, not just death of the body as you teach.

Behold, did I ever ask you what your definition of God's grace is? If so, forgive me for asking again. Our differences may stem from different interpretations.

thats why legalism is so dangerous.. They can't get out of their own way.. They want to hand God their own righteousness. and refuse to accept their righteousness is as bloody rags.

until they see their righteousness for what it is, they will remain decieved. as the pharisees were
