Are Protestants "saved? "

[Reggie Belafonte]

Because ! who is it that is in the Kingdom of God and who is it that is not ? clearly the Kingdom of God is not of this world.
The Kingdom of God has a handle on Sin, but the world does not. and that's clearly why Jesus Christ said such, their is a great void between to two.

 

[Enoch111]

I don’t think I am right. I think the church is right.

Which *church*? If you are referring to the RCC (or if you insist the CC, makes no difference), it is as wrong and wrong can be.

It would take several volumes to discuss all the errors of the Roman Catholic Church. But unless you are open to the truth, it will do you no good.

 

[Brakelite]

In that passage He is speaking of the Apostles only

According to whose interpretation?

According to your interpretation of that passage ALL Christians will be taught “all things” .

Oh. On that basis then only Nicodemus needed to be born again.

If you’re interpretation were correct we would all agree on EVERYTHING because the the Holy Spirit is helping ALL of us in “remembrance “.

Depends who's listening. And God does give some more insight than others... That's why they are teachers. Not everyone is as open minded as others... Not everyone is as ready for truth as others. You call yourself Bible study Mary. How often do you sit down with your Bible and a concordance, ask God to give you understanding and insight into your study, and rely upon and trust His Spirit to enlighten and teach you? Do you think He can? Do you think He would? Would you believe what you heard? Would He say no, go to the church and ask the church? Bible study closed.

Isaiah 64:6 does not say that all acts of righteousness are as filthy rags to God, but that those being rendered to him in Isaiah‘s day were.

This just proves you have yet to repent.

If you think your righteous works offered to God for your sin is anything other than filthy rags, your sadly mistaken,

James never said that, he was taking to Christians who understood that it's the Holy Spirit that impels you to do the will of Christ Jesus. anyone who claims otherwise is of Satan.

Anyone who claims they are working for their salvation is a fool, one is to boast anything of what they did, as fact is that all the glory is only given to the Holy Spirit and not of ones self at all.

Look what I did ? No ! look what the Holy Spirit did, the thing is to abide in the Holy Spirit, we do not give our selves any glory at all, it's all due to the glory in Jesus Christ, as it's him that we serve.

Faith without the works is in fact dead! remember about that the workers are few ? and that the one must bear fruit ? and that Jesus cursed the fig tree because it did not bear fruit, Nathaniel was working at that Tree in hope for it to bear fruit, because he was a true Israelite and Jesus came and then we hear what Nathaniel said to Jesus and Jesus said of him and what he would see ?:)

Jesus said that one must abide in the vine, so if one does not abide in him you are not a Christian at all, are some claiming to be born again due to their own will or a one time event knowing that the vine exist but they do not abide in it and end up all puffed up in pride of ownership of the word.

Owning it and doing it are two different things. are they trying to own the word ? but have tossed away the deeds. like they did when they took over the Vineyard and the Prophets came and they killed them all and when Jesus came they did the same. that's religion !

All people are religious, not one person ever was not religious ever regardless what they may say ? but you must be truly born again to come out of that whore and to enter into the Kingdom of God, for Jesus Christ is not of this world.
The religious are of this world. just look at all the religions of the world, only one is not of this world, they are on about this world ? but Christ Jesus is about the Kingdom of God ! now no one can enter but for they who are worthy, the Bible points out who can not enter ? fact is that such as is pointed out can not because it's imposable for such a corrupted one to have such a perception to enter because they are wrapped up in this world. because they are degenerates and not worthy. Adam and Eve were kicked out of the Kingdom of Gods Paradise, due to being temped as to abiding in Sin = Satan's Kingdom of this world.

We see religion is claiming that we are all sinners, so they embrace the Sin and that's why prop up Sodomites, they are empowering them ? claiming that all sinners are the same, well no they are not the same at all !

So I am from satan?

preach these words

what does it PROFIT a man if he CLAIM to have faith but has no works. CAN THAT FAITH SAVE HIM?

1. he never said they were saved, he asked if they could be saved by a particular type of faith
2. He did not say that had some works, he said they had NONE!
3, he later declared their faith was DEAD.

For you people who think a dead faith, the same belief demons had, ever saved anyone, I am just worried beyond all worry.

 

[Waiting on him]

Does God prefer one religious bent to another? Or is that about us?

As in.."I can believe anything I want based on a verse taken out of context"

It appears to be the longest protest, ever,,, hands down.

 

[Yehren]

I have had faith-only people tell me that if one has faith, then works will come. And that's a good answer, too. If your faith is dead, you will not do the will of God, and you will not be saved.

Is giving to the poor a righteous act (work)? Scripture disagrees with you.

One thing you lack," he said. "Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven.

10For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to

Matthew 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

James 2:14-17 - What [doth it] profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works?

 

[Marymog]

According to whose interpretation?

John 13 sets up 14. Read 14 in context of that.

If the CC is in error then all churches are in error since all churches have some doctrines that AGREE with The Church.

GOOD! You've got this correct - all are in error, beginning with the mother of errors.

I never said it was not a righteous work

your comprehension skills are suspect

if you giving to the poor thinking that act will help you in your salvation, it is done out of selfish intent, your trying to earn something, not give sacrificially (expecting nothing in return) and it’s called an act of self righteousness, or filthy rags

True all churches have some doctrines that agree with all other churches

it’s the gospel that matters.

get this wrong, your doomed

 

[Joseph77]

You are in error?

:)
Good question.
If I had stayed in one of the daughters of the mother of errors, then yes, I would be in error.

So, thanks be to God in His Almighty and All Seeing Grace, His Redemption by His Choice, His Way,
who called us (all Ekklesia ) out of the error,
we no longer abide in the error,
rather in Jesus, in Truth, as He and His Word clearly Show Daily.

Soooo are you ever in error?

Here? Rarely. When I am, disciples of Jesus, and disciples of the enemy, both point it out.

Jesus makes it clear that our works DO give us something in return. It gives us “salvation in heaven “

Lol.....Rarely??? I am glad to see that you are brave enough to admit that sometimes you are in error. Since you are in error....why should I believe ANYTHING you say?

Not "in error". Any error revealed is repented of/ changed/ so as never to be in error ongoing, like your decisions continue to be. So, like me,
Repent (change) , come out of the error you have lived in for however long, or you cannot believe ANYTHING Jesus says in His Word.
