That first one is so relevant as the number of funerals I've been to where people are told there loved one is in heaven when you know they never knew Jesus.

That lower place belongs to all who denied Christ as the only and do i mean ONLY way unto GOD , unto salvation .
I want to remind you of something you already know and i have read .
Cause todays churches in large are preaching a deadly lie unto the masses .
If good works alone saves one , as they claim . It this false lovey can save one as they claim .
FOR they say buddists muslims , atheists and non believing Jews are all serving GOD and are saved .
HOW COME CORNELIOUS . WHO did so much good , so much alms , prayed to the TRUE GOD
and did so much good that it came up to GOD for a memorial .
HAD TO STILL HEAR THE GOSPEL IN ORDER TO BE SAVED . Exactly .
MAY cornelious be remembered as an example of WHAT ONE TRULY NEEDS IN ORDER FOR SALVATION , IN ORDER TO be saved .
Peter even tells the church later at JERSUALEM concerining CORNELIOUS .
That HE had to hear words by which HE and his Household may be SAVED .
SO , if this pope and our own churches are so right about this false love and no need to beleive in CHRIST
HOW COME CORNELIOUS WHO DID MUCH GOOD in the eyes of GOD that HIS prayers and his alms CAME Up as a remembrance to GOD
STILL had to HEAR and BELIEVE the gospel in order TO BE SAVED .
NOW , my other point is , beware those who preach ye can live evil and have no works and yet if ya just lipped JESUS you are saved .
That too is incorrect .
SO let me sum it up . Faith without works is dead , but so is all the good works without faith in JESUS . WE better
arm ourselves with the WORDS in that bible . cause i see far too many heeding men and NOT GOD . As i am sure you would agree
my dear sister .

The gospel by which ye are saved , IF YE CONTINUE .....
folks might want to read the beginning of the fifteenth chapter of corinithains , as well as other places like in hebrews .
as well as romans too . Their is a word that is often over looked . And thus what follows that word
is often twisted to fit mens teachings .
ITS called IF . IF . IF .
Many folks often twist what follows that IF unto their own destruction . I say HEED EVERY SINGLE WORD WRITTEN .
LOVE and embrace it all . FOR IT works to the good of the hearer and doer . THE LORD is with the lambs .
HE knows how to KEEP us safe . But if one takes off from HEEDING HIM , THE SPIRIT , SOUND BIBLE DOCTRINE
Beware a BIG FALL is on the way unto all who do such a thing .

I would say not only the BETTER ROAD , BUT UNTO the ONLY PATH that LEADS TO GOD . JESUS CHRIST
the ONLY WAY the TRUTH and THE LIFE . AND none will come unto GOD lest BY HIM .
WE need to hold fast to , cling too and NEVER LET GO , of what was first delivered unto us .

 

[L.A.M.B.]

Agreed!
Yet this is the pat answer most give when someone passes, they are in heaven. It hurts to hear repeatedly ppl say this. For a very long time I could not make myself believe in deathbed repentance. Through study I've learned to let God be the final judge of others.

The above was a very hard lesson as was judging others salvation by how they lived.

It is heartbreaking to KNOW that many are decieved either by others or their own selfishness. My walk is based on what I have learned in the word by the Spirit over the years,and that is WHAT I must work out in fear and trembling.

Ppl say such foolish things in ignorance. Things that are false that they have allowed to take root in their hearts and minds. EACH day is a new beginning to receive salvation and instruction from God. We no longer have to cling to nor hid our secret sins,for he knows all.
IT IS TIME TO CONFESS, LAY ASIDE AND FOLLOW GOD !

What we DO in God's name and HIS WORK are done in obedience to what pleases Him. It's not for show nor respect from man but a heartfelt desire to make God happy.

I know as do many other who argue that the salvation of our souls was and is the GIFT of God by his son's sacrifice. Our redemption came at a GREAT price ! It cannot be earned by anything we can do, no amount of rituals nor traditions will save anyone!

Grace of God, faith of man,conviction by the Spirit after the hearing of the word stirs us to repentance and confession and turning from a life of sin and death.

Then OUR walk begins. Jesus said to put your hand to the plow and look back makes a person unfit for heaven. To build you house on shifting sand will cause it to fall. To have doubt and be tossed to and fro by every wind of DOCTRINE make a person unstable.

IT IS TIME WE ARE ABOUT HIS WORK AND HIS BUSINESS REGARDLESS OF WHO SAYS WHAT !

 

[L.A.M.B.]

Agree.
Ppl that think God is UNCONDITIONAL are delusional. We see a God of conditions by every little IF in the word. Ppl choose to by pass this word to be of no or little importance and yet.............This is in our contract of our path led and directed by Him.

I cannot walk another's path, I cannot make life changing decisions for them but I can PRAY,be a LIGHT, share the TRUTH and then LEAVE THEM WITH GOD !
