Except Ye Repent...

[Phoneman777]

Every Christian, new or long time, delights continually in the truth that God's love is unconditional.
Salvation, however, is very much conditional - on condition, according to Jesus Himself, that we repent from sin (Luke 13:5 KJV).
This in no way renders our "faith alone" Gospel insufficient -- BECAUSE FAITH ALONE IS SUFFICIENT.

The problem is many have "faith" but not saving faith - faith established by anything and everything except the Bible.
Therefore, the question we must ask is: "How do I know that my faith is Biblical faith?"

Biblical faith always produces repentance (1 John 2:3-4 KJV) (James 2:14-18 KJV).

Yes we can put it that way, that saving faith is that if we believe, we will also follow. I remember having a better example of explaining what kind of works Paul in his book was talking about, like your own works will not work but only works of the faith in Christ Jesus we must follow, not our own works without Jesus/God.
