Some sinning Christians, that have not repented of doing dead works, say that repentance unto salvation is only that of the mind. They repent of 'unbelief'.

However, we find certain words of the Bible doctrine and prophecy are not believed, much less obeyed.

So we see, that repenting of 'unbelief' in the true God, but not unbelief in some of His words, is no more than the faith of devils in James 2.

Repenting of unbelief in the true God, includes repenting of not believing His words. Believing God and His gospel is believing all Jesus and His apostles say, whether we like them or not.

Only by believing all of God's words can we possibly do them by faith, and please God.

Amen. There is an epidemic of epic proportions of ignoring Jesus' words. Most people derive their ideology based on a few disconnected verses that are twisted to conform to an already believed religious stance.

You really can get the bible to say what you want.

What is in very short supply are real honest seekers who are willing to put the words from God above their own opinions.

Halleluiah and amen brother. Christians love to condemn the Pharisees for disannulling God's word by their traditions, but let one of God's words condemn our own tradition? No way baby! Let me be true and every word of God a liar!

I really cannot count the times I quote a simple verse of the Bible, that cannot possibly be read any other way, and some Christians will come out and teach the exact opposite, and say they believe all the Bible.

Christians like to jump on JW's for not believing the Word was God, but quote go and sin no more, and pitchforks of sinners saved by grace come out en masse.
