Yes that murder and adulterer was a man after Gods own heart. Why? because He asked God and sought Him for direction. He realized His downfall and relied on God. A totally different doctrine than what is taught today. When Davis failed is when He did not Seek Gods advice.
He did not ask God what to do.

He acknowledged God. And acknowledged his sin. And acknowledged that only God could save him, because he was such a sinner.

is Israel, in God's People, the Jews, the Hebrews, the FAITH JESUS IMPARTS is in YAHWEH,
through YAHSHUA,
and all of Yahweh's People expect completely TO OBEY YAHWEH fully every day without any compromise.

in america, and in this forum, perverts think they can have some kind of faith that doesn't obey Yahweh.

their faith will not help them today, or any day. Yahweh will cast them in the lake of fire on the appropriate day, unless they truly repent and turn to Him to live the way He says to.

And you prove you do not read anything.

There is a big difference between saying one HAS TO OBEY (place them under law) and ACKNOWLEDGING one can not OBEY ACCORDING TO GODS STANDARD (which is perfection).

when one acknowledges they still can not obey Gods law in the way he requries (perfection) thus still needs Gods mercy (grace) they are not saying one does not have to obey, that is just a lie from the pits of hell.

Sisters and Brothers,

for the life of me,
I just can't fathom or understand what the meaning is of
'dead works',

I beg your forgiveness for my ignorance.
dead works are works without faith. Many of the Pharisees acted out dead works in order to look more "holy".

amen,

a dead work can not save you,

can not give you blessings

can not give you rewards in heaven.

they are meaningless works. called dead, because the one who does them are trying to earn something (salvation, blessings or rewards) as apposed to a living work. which is done out of love, with nothing expected in return.

Works that are done not for GOD and not in truth.Any works that you do that are fleshly driven with a selfish motive.

Are you invited to the Wedding of the Lamb?

Have you ever read the parable about the wedding guest who arrived
wearing clothing unsuitable for the wedding?

People work after salvation in order to be properly attired in the Kingdom

The white robes are the deeds of the saints.

Throughout the Word, our deeds are equated with our attire.

Dead works are works of the world, striving for what is destined for the fire instead
of what is eternal, such as faith, hope and love.

Do you say you have faith with no works? This is impossible, but first one must be aware
of exactly what works are; I speak of good works of course.

Praise the Groom; He is coming soon, certainly, amen.
