Can a believer come to faith in Jesus, through knowing Jesus and the cross,
having a deep conviction of sin, repenting, putting their faith in Christ for
the forgiveness of their sins, start walking in love and obedience to Christ
end up in works salvation?
My answer would be no.
Many people grow up in churches and absorb the culture trying very hard to
be obedient and put on a show. They are prime targets for works salvation.
Others join a church where conforming is all that matters and sin or conviction is not
a problem, it is just praise and grace, They are prime targets for works salvation.
Others join a church who live the nice life, and all their friends christian or
otherwise are nice people. They are prime targets for works salvation.
Now those who are redeemed sinners, who abide in Christ and walk in love
they are the fulfillment of the promise, they are our example, the goal to
which we should be desiring to walk. Amen.
Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. The one who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. 8 The one who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work.
1 John 3:7-8
You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
