OK you White Washed Wall. What "Works of the LAW" were the Levite Priests, the Pharisees bewitching the Galatians with .
Rom. 3:
27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit (Justification) by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
What works of the Law would the Pharisees be pushing EG? Were they trying to get the Galatians to "Love God with all their heart and soul"? Are these the "Works of the Law" the Levite Priest's were "Bewitching" the Galatians with?
or maybe you preach that the Jews were "Bewitching" the Galatians by trying to convert them to "Love their neighbor as their selves". Is this a "DEED of the LAW" set aside by Moses for the remission of sins? Of course you won't answer.
Isn't it true that the Pharisees, the Levite Priests who refused to accept Jesus as the High Priest, were still pushing the Levitical Priesthood "Works of the Law" for the cleansing of sins? Deny it if you will Mr. self righteousness.
What LAW was ADDED 430 years after Abraham, till the Seed should? "Do not hate your brother in your heart"? Do you preach this is a 'LAW" that was ADDED 430 years after Abraham, TILL the SEED Should Come?
1 John 3:
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
Was this the Law that you preach was ADDED 430 years after Abraham? But what Law didn't Abraham have Mr. Self Righteous?
Gen. 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
Did Abraham have the Levitical Priesthood?
Gal. 3:17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
If I am depending, as were the Jews who were "Bewitching" the Galatians, on the Levitical Priesthood sacrificial "Works of the Law" for remission of sins, and not the Blood of Christ, then I am cursed to keep "All the Commandments" because as it is written: "For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins." Therefore if I depend on the "Law" to wash away my sins I am accursed. Because the Law can not wash away my sins, therefore my sins remain and I am doomed, cursed to die in them.
You White Washes Walls have been telling lies about this chapter for centuries and when folks point this out you ridicule, call them names and if it were in Christ's time you would stone them to death.
Yes I am fired up. My heart burns to see the way you self righteous "ministers of righteousness" twist and deceive to promote your tradition soaked religion.
Anyone on this site. Read this post and show me in God's Word where it is wrong. Show me that the Jews were trying to get the Galatians to Follow the Law of Faith, and not the Law of Works "ADDED" till the Christ should come.

*sigh*
of course not. and we've been over it 77 times so i search for an explanation of why you keep saying i do.
put "whoever believes has everlasting life" and "whoever believes and is immersed shall be saved" together with this. why do you assume everyone is double-minded? is it because we also believe the scripture 'when we are faithless He remains faithful' ? so you think no one who says this wants to remain faithful?
He says "unless you believe" -- believe what, specifically?
belief specifically in what?
what specific hope?
specifically which confidence?
by what specific means is this full assurance?
put these things in your 'i need to know this or else i won't understand Matthew 17:24-27' pile.

those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame!
(Psalm 34:5)
let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess,
for He who promised is faithful!
(Hebrews 10:23)
do not throw away your confidence;
it will be richly rewarded!
(Hebrews 10:35)
let us draw near to God with a sincere heart
and with the full assurance that faith brings

Matthew 17 --
- transfiguration
- healing a demon-possessed boy the disciples couldn't because their faith was weak
- telling them a second time He would be delivered to be killed and resurrected 3 days later
- then vv. 24-27.

What I'm trying to understand from you is what exactly do you say " genuine Faith in action " is ?
To me and supported by the Vines and Strongs , genuine Faith in action is specifically pisteuo . The " specific " action is what the Vines defines as " a personal surrender to Him and a life inspired by such surrender . Producing a full acknowledgement of God's revelation of truth .”
Are you in complete agreement with the Vines ?
If we agree on what pisteuo specifically is , we can then look at how it's applied .

Ok.
Genuine faith in action.
I want to be like Jesus.
I want to love people, I dont want to sin, I want to hear is voice, I want his will in my live to be complete, I want him to complete my life.
I want his love and reassurance, I want him to break down every stronghold, in want the chains that bind me to be loosed in order to set me free to help others that I have been set from.
I want him to enlarge my borders and take me out of my comfort zone.
In a nutshell. I want to be like Jesus to others as he was when he came to die and reconcile me to our Father in heaven.
And boy has he helped me. I won't go into my life experiences but he has dealt with it and it's using me to help others.
That's my desire.
