I just provided scripture not a slant!
Jesus says faith AND baptism Mk 16:16

never and nowhere does the Bible or the apostles say “faith alone”
Rom 13:11 that makes faith alone impossible

op: "Relationship With God" praise?:

Precious friend(s), Is not the Solution to Confusion recognizing
God's Differences Between "HIS Relationship (Father/child) With us,"
And "our fellowship with (following/knowing) HIM!"?

God's Will, Today, Under HIS PURE GRACE? Very Simply:

(1)
God Establishes HIS Eternal ("birth") Relationship With
those who humbly:

believe, 100% trust, place Total faith, In The LORD JESUS CHRIST, HIS
Death {Precious BLOOD}, Burial, And HIS Resurrection, According To The
Scriptures! (
1 Corinthians 15:3-4; cp Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 3-5 KJB!)

"GRACE Through faith" In The Merits Of HIS
Precious And ALL-Sufficient BLOOD Results:


All sins Forgiven, HIS Eternal Life, And, Peace With God!
{This Is Eternal DELIVERANCE From the PENALTY
of sin!}
Justification / Spiritual Sanctification First, And, THEN:


(2) earthly "Fellowship" With God:

The believer SHOULD do "good works" {Which will NEVER
EQUAL CHRIST's TOTAL PAYMENT For the above PENALTY
of sin!},
for Which we Are Created In CHRIST JESUS, to perform for HIM,
having "been Called into fellowship With HIM!"
Amen?:

We "work out OUR OWN salvation" {This SHOULD Be a
lifetime of DELIVERANCE From the POWER of sin!}
personal Sanctification:

(2a) Fulfil ALL Of His Law, In "ONE Word: LOVE your neighbor
as yourself!" (
Galatians 5:14; Romans 13:8-10 KJB!)

(2b) Study HIS Word Of Truth, Rightly Divided, to show
yourself Approved Unto God! (
2 Timothy 2:15 KJB!)

Eternal Results:
reward {or loss} (1 Corinthians 3 : 8-15 KJB!),
ruling and reigning With CHRIST, Which Will FINALLY Be At
The Judgment Day:


(3) Eternal Heavenly "Fellowship" With God:

CHRIST's GLORIFICATION of
All "members (Related By birth)" Of HIS Body!! {This Is Eternal DELIVERANCE From the PRESENCE of sin!}
Amen?
----------------------------------
Conclusion:
BIG Differences Between God's Relationship And our fellowship!
Correct?

Please Be Richly Encouraged, Enlightened, Exhorted, and Edified!

(2 Timothy 2:15; Romans 16:25; Ephesians 1:3-9; Ephesians 3:9 =
GRACE/Mystery fellowship {Romans – Philemon}, For ALL “to SEE,” today?)
