here is a bump for you LD
There are no bumps I will endure while on this subject. Because when explaining what I am going to explain it will be with God's own words. It won't be with my words.

B...,

Where did this ..."gotcha"...mentality come from? Not from G-d...that's for sure.
Thank you Preston. This is exactly what I'm talking about that takes place on this site all the time. Truth tellers are attacked and ridiculed constantly in an effort to shut them up. Not working with me.

Dcon, I'm sorry. I'm actually the one who told him he should check out this thread because I thought he could maybe be helped. I see now that it isn't going to be a help to him. Sorry that I directed him here.
No need to apologize friend...more chances for me to post scripture that refutes any and all working for lawyers, Pharisees and the blind that think they keep the law.....all they do is dig their ditch deeper, declare to all they are condemned, that they proclaim the exact false gospel that Paul condemns in Galatians and that they push the exact same thing Jesus references when he states that MANY will come before his throne saying...LORD, LORD have we NOT...........

I didn't come here because you directed me anywhere. Contrary to what you are thinking, I don't accept your directions. I was browsing and will bring truth here regarding works, if we can get past a couple other simple issues first.

TRUTH HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHA what truth.....another cake taker more like it.....

He has nothing.. he is just trying to attack, it is what he does..

Therefore we conclude a man is justified by faith without the works/deeds of the law.
You are evading. Is what you posted here actual scripture OR is it your summation of scripture ? If you say it is scripture, as you did before, then please provide the actual verse from any version of the Bible which it perfectly matches.

poor guy, He pushes the law. Yet you had to use the law against him to show him his sin.

Sad but typical with these type of people.

Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

(exact kjv romans 3: 28)


For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law

Romans 3:20 (KJV)
[SUP]20 [/SUP] Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
Romans 3:28 (KJV)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.


Romans 3:20 (HCSB)

[SUP]20 [/SUP] For no one will be justified in His sight by the works of the law, because the knowledge of sin ⌊comes⌋ through the law.
Romans 3:28 (HCSB)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] For we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.


Romans 3:20 (NKJV)
[SUP]20 [/SUP] Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
Romans 3:28 (NKJV)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.


Romans 3:20 (NASB)
[SUP]20 [/SUP] because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin.
Romans 3:28 (NASB)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law.


Romans 3:20 (NCV)
[SUP]20 [/SUP] because no one can be made right with God by following the law. The law only shows us our sin.
Romans 3:28 (NCV)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] A person is made right with God through faith, not through obeying the law.


Romans 3:20 (NIV)
[SUP]20 [/SUP] Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin.
Romans 3:28 (NIV)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from observing the law.


Romans 3:20 (NJB)
[SUP]20 [/SUP] So then, no human being can be found upright at the tribunal of God by keeping the Law; all that the Law does is to tell us what is sinful.
Romans 3:28 (NJB)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] since, as we see it, a person is justified by faith and not by doing what the Law tells him to do.


Romans 3:20 (YLT)
[SUP]20 [/SUP] wherefore by works of law shall no flesh be declared righteous before Him, for through law is a knowledge of sin.
Romans 3:28 (YLT)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] therefore do we reckon a man to be declared righteous by faith, apart from works of law.


Romans 3:20 (MontgomeryNT)
[SUP]20 [/SUP] For no man will be justified in God’s sight by works of the Law; for through the Law comes the consciousness of sin.
Romans 3:28 (MontgomeryNT)
[SUP]28 [/SUP] For I conclude that a man is justified by faith, altogether apart from the deeds of the Law.



SHALL I GO ON?
I did it once already....a working for lawyer cannot accept that verse..it destroys their law based false justification.....

Since you are a man of truth, then please provide us with it.

You claimed your words below to be actual scripture, but you have not provided the Bible verse to match those words exactly. Can you do that please ?

Therefore we conclude a man is justified by faith without the works/deeds of the law.

You then attacked me calling me a deceiver, but you haven't shown your words to be actual scripture, but rather your summation of scripture.

Lawyers and Pharisees constantly break the very law they claim to uphold......the truth is simple...the law justifies no one....it does nothing more than prove guilt and condemns a man before God

You are completely missing the point here my friend. I know what the Bible means, that is not the question here. The point is that when scripture is not printed "exactly" as written, then it is no longer scripture. You are not paying close enough attention to what dc said ( works/deeds ). There is no scripture printed in that exact manner, therefore it is man's words and not scripture. He changed the scripture, making it no longer scripture.
A prime example of the word's of JESUS......swallow a camel and choke on a gnat........the bible states BOTH pal....maybe if you actually studied the bible you could figure out that you are missing the mark.....

Romans 8
8 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:


_______

romans 9


30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.

31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.

32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;

33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Romans
Chapter 10

1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.

4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)

7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Your post 60725 was not good. You said it was scripture, but you cannot show it to being any exact scripture in any version of the Bible. It was your summation of a verse, but not an actual verse. Then when told it was not an actual verse, you proceeded to falsely call a man a deceiver. Are you denying you did this ?

Is it not "missing the mark" to falsely call another a deceiver ?
