But if the work is burned up, the builder will suffer great loss. The builder will be saved, but like someone barely escaping through a wall of flames.
I'm starting a thread on 1 Corinthians.
Too much misunderstanding...

You got some script for this?
2 Corinthians 5:10
For we must all appear before the tribunal of Christ, so that each may be repaid for what he has done in the body, whether good or worthless.

plus many other supporting Scriptures

Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous.

I like John 5:28-29

He will only be saved upon the loss of all his works if he had and has the proper foundation at the end of his course. Without the foundation nothing at all will remain. Notice the difference at the end of the burning between the three Hebrews thrown into Nebuchadnezzar's fiery furnace and the strong soldiers who threw them into the fire [in Daniel 3]. Who had a proper foundation? What is that immovable, indestructible foundation?

"And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;" Eph 2:20

Oh you clever girl!! :)

Is that the right size for my avatar? I will give it a try.

THANK YOU!!
Don't look now "ByGrace", but that previous hand went away, and now there is a leperous hand sneaking up on you ... if you are still, and move in a quick motion, you might be able to run from it in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... RUNNNN!!!! :)

Jk of course.

Someone who's on fire for Jesus
someone who wants to pray
Someone who is willing to do whatever is needed in the family of God
Among other things.

Would you say that those with a new heart, being changed into another person (from old to new), given them by God, are such persons?

Would you say that those who are filled with the Holy Ghost, are such persons? Like at Pentecost, or other place.
Ok, R.T. What about these questions? Did you have a moment to think about these to reply? (I like the new pic you have up)

He will only be saved upon the loss of all his works if he had and has the proper foundation at the end of his course.
why do you say that? "if he has the foundation."
i'm trying to develop the same argument, but i don't see it in that passage.
Also i get the impression that "saved as through a fire" means like "barely," but ppls def of "saved" is so whacked now i prolly won't bother with that
