You might be keen to know that they tend to have a circular way of arguing their point that "faith alone saves". There was a thread I started about salvation during the tribulation period and its the same circular argument that they used.
If someone who has faith in Jesus takes the mark of the beast, he is not saved in the first place since that proves he has no faith, so salvation is still by faith alone and not faith AND works.
And likewise, if someone who has faith does not "endure to the end", Matthew 24:13, it proves he was never saved in the first place, so salvation is still by faith alone.
Even though the layman understanding of the terms, "rejecting the mark of the beast" and "enduring to the end" are works, they will still insist its part of faith. There is no way to have a reasonable discussion based on such circular reasoning.

Khristós ... it would seem is used as a noun. The word as a verb anoint or anointed is used several time in the new testament.
It would seem to be the name used indicating that in the last days the Holy Spirit (Christ) would speak directly through the Son of man Jesus. It is like Jesus saying He is the truth personified. Or God is love. . not that he can but is the one source. Jesus was used as a demonstration of the unseen anointing work of the Holy Spirit (the father and son working together to establish the government of God.. . .as it is written
Christ is the anointing Holy Spirit of God. He does the anointing teaching, comforting, guiding and also brings to our memory that which he has taught us . He was active in the old testament as well as the new.
Sounds like the work of the Holy Spirit who began the good work of salvation in Noah and some of the family members. The spiritual seed Christ was still being developed and protected from the father of lies. That genealogy of the Son of man was fulfilled with Jesus.(Mathew 1)
God's love is long suffering (120 years) His patience is kind. . .(Noah was slow) teaching us the end of a matter can be better than the beginning. . . giving us a living hope that will not disappoint.. No need for him to boast in that which he does finish. He never starts something without...finishing
Its the kind of food being moved with a new desire to do the will of God unseen and finish it. .The kind of food that the disciples knew not of at first.
Philippians 1;6 King James Version (KJV) Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
It all began long ago in a far away place. Not a cloud in the sky. There God spoke and said.
Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. Genesis6 :4
We are informed in Philippians 2:12 it worked in Noah to both will and perform the good pleasure of God .( Imputed righteousness)
I am sure the neighbors had much dispute and murmured but the Holy Spirit continued his work of Emanuel (God with Noah ) .
For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Do all things without murmurings and disputings: Philippians 2:12
Hebrews 6 informs us that He will not forget the good works of Noah that Noah offered towards the name. . .as the authority of God that worked in Him. . it accompanied his salvation . Without it he could not believe God..
Who is working in us? Should be the same spirit of faith .the promise he will not forget our works that he works with us still applies.
9 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
