And now lets examine the bible my friend .
Sirs what must I DO to BE SAVED ,
BELEIVE YE ON JESUS THE CHRIST . that is how ONE is saved . Paul and silas knew that .
As did peter and them all .
SAVE YOURSELVES from this untoward generation .
I give us all a challenge . Look at how often JESUS used the words BELEIVE , to beleieve in HIM
then go to and look at what the apostels taught as they spoke to the jews and peoples .
IT was about HAVING TO BELIEVE ON JESUS the CHRIST .
SO correct you are my friend . And thus please let us know and understand
that interfaith is of anti christ and we darn sure dont want to sit at that table .
For ye cannot sit at the table of Christ and the table of Anti Christ .
Yes, let’s do examine the Bible.
What the scriptures indicate is that believe and obey are used interchangeably.
Example:
He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.” John 3:36 NKJV
He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.” John 3:36 NASB
And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him.
Hebrews 5:9
If one hears the Gospel and believes with biblical believing (not the believing that demons do) they will obey the Gospel command to repent.
Do you believe a person must obey the command to repent?
Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38
Do you understand how we obey the command to repent?
I’ll give you a hint: Before Jesus is our Lord, Satan is our lord.

Yes they must obey the commandment to repent .
Repent . Repentance from the darkness we all once lived in and were subject unto . Faith toward God . BELIEVE IN HE
whom GOD did send . We must obey GOD and HE has testified OF the SON , to BELEIVE ON HIM .
True BELIEF entails obediance . Who we love is who we obey . Who we beleive is who we obey
who we have True faith in IS who we BELEIVE and Obey . As did even abraham .
Many seem to not grasp what true faith is . What true beleif is .
So allow me to sum it up .
HAD one TRULY BELEIVED IN GOD they had BELEIVED IN CHRIST .
IF one truly Beleives in CHRIST they had beleived HIS WORDS , obeyed Him .
What must one do to be saved , BELEIVE ye ON JESUS the CHRIST .
What does GOD seal the beleiver with , THE HOLY SPIRIT that has SHED the LOVE of GOD upon their hearts .
The love of GOD , would LOVE GOD , thus LOVE the SON above all , first and before all .
THEY would now have the LOVE of TRUTH upon their hearts .
For this cause was i born to TESTIFY OF THE TRUTH , said JESUS to pilate
All who are of the TRUTH come to ME .
Its far simplier than what man has made it .
We should simply have preached Christ JESUS , those who hear amen and those who reject
its on them . THEN we should remind and get all who do beleive in HIM
back into the bible to learn for themselves .
So many get caught up in certain meats which sure have not profited them at all .
let our hearts be established by grace and be focused on the TRUTH whereby one will learn and grow .

Yes its interchaneable . Who we Beleive is who we love and who we love is who we obey .
That is faith . THEY are tied together as one . Its all about simple childlike faith .
When GOD called abraham , abraham beleived and obeyed .
TRUE BELEIF . When GOD had told them to go into the promised land
and that HE would deliver the aliens into their hand , that HE would be with them and they would
inherit that land . MANY did not BELEIVE HIM , were fearful of the giants of the land .
THEY DID NOT BELIEVE GOD . though i am quite sure they would have said they BELEIVED IN GOD .
But when GOD spoke to abraham HE BELEIVED and HE DID . Faith .
Are we gonna trust IN GOD , IN HIS CHRIST , IN HIS WORDS , DO we believe HIM
or do we beleive men that twist His words and have caused major disobediance and rebellion to GOD .
WHO do we BELEIVE , is it GOD or men
WHAT do we love , is it the flesh OR do we heed THE SPIRIT .
THEY are as one . FAITH , BELIEF , OBEDIANCE , LOVE .
For who we BELEIVE , who we love , is who we obey and in who our FAITH IS my friend .
The fruit of the SPIRIT is clearly seen . It is in al goodness , righteousness and Truth
proving what is acceptable TO GOD . AND disobediance is NOT acceptable ,
SIN is not acceptable , rebellion is not acceptable . OBEDIANCE IS WHAT HE has always desired
and NOW IN CHRIST we have THE SPIRIT by which to worship HIM in SPIRIT and IN TRUTH .
TO LOVE AND OBEY HIM .

Hi DJT
Just saw this thread.
You're right that all the writers of the NT agreed with one another....
but they fall wrote from their own perspective or what they believed to be very important.
To have the complete message of the gospel,,,,
all the writers have to be read and understood.
I agree with you that the gospel is needed to attain salvation...
but many neglect that this salvation must continue on to our end.
What happens at the beginning must continue on...
what must continue on is to believe what Jesus taught and what He taught is
the Kingdom of God and how to be a member of it. (here on earth).
§Everyone likes the being born again part....
not everyone likes the being a part of the Kingdom part...
LOL
It gets tiring, doesn't it?
A MAN JUST HEARS
WHAT HE WANTS TO HEAR
AND DISREGARDS THE REST.

The Gospel of Christ - The Way, the Truth, the Life, God’s Gift to the World
In the beginning, God made the heavens and the earth, and He made man and woman in His own image. He placed them in a beautiful garden and gave them everything they could enjoy, but He said, “Do not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for in the day you eat of it, you will surely die.” Yet all of us have turned away, following our own paths, choosing our own ways instead of God’s. We have carried sin in our hearts, and the LORD laid our sins on His chosen One, taking upon Himself the punishment that we deserved, offering Himself as the Lamb who would make us whole.
Jesus came into the world full of love and said, “God loved the world so much that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life. I did not come to condemn the world, but to save it.” He told His disciples with openness and sorrow that He would go to Jerusalem, that men would betray Him, mock Him, and strike Him. He would be beaten and pierced, hung on a cross, bearing the full weight of every sin, every hurt, every broken heart, even ours. Yet in His suffering, He showed the greatest love, and He promised that on the third day He would rise again, proving the power of God over death and giving hope that life could triumph over sin for all who believe.
When someone asked Him how to have eternal life, Jesus answered simply and clearly: “If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.” And He explained that following Him is not only about belief but about living in obedience, letting God’s ways shape our hearts. Whoever seeks only to save their own life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for His sake and obeys His words will find true life. The commandments are the covenant of God written in our hearts, guiding us in love, shaping our desires, and leading us to holiness. Those who hear His words and believe in Him who sent Him have already passed from death into life; judgment cannot touch them, because life in Him is eternal.
On the night He was betrayed, Jesus took the cup and said, “This is My blood of the New Covenant, poured out for the forgiveness of many.” He offered His very life, giving Himself completely for our sins, enduring shame, pain, and death so that we could be reconciled to God. He called Himself the way, the truth, and the life, saying that no one comes to the Father except through Him. His words, He promised, will never fade, and the good news of God’s kingdom will be shared with all the nations, bringing hope, healing, and life to everyone who believes. This is the love of God: He gave everything for us, inviting us to receive life, to have His commandments written on our hearts, to follow Him fully, and to live in the joy and fullness of His grace forever.
