1. You have already been disobedient, thus you are already dead (unless you have been saved by the death of Christ) so it is already TOO late to be good enough.
2. Those who are born again WILL BE OBEDIENT! Not perfect.
3. How good is good enough? According to scripture. perfection. If you have not attained this, you have already failed to meet the mark required by God.
thus it is you who is apposed to scripture. Because you state obedience is not required for salvation. then in the same breath, you state it is.. You contradict yourself.
You finally get it.. That is what the law was intended to do. To show us WE ARE DEAD.
No, this is what I have said all along.
No. the law is the problem. We can;t fullfill it. thus we are dead because of it. The law kills. Jesus saves. But if you want to keep trying to save yourself by the law. by all means do so.
That simply does not line up with scripture...
The Law is not the killer, sin is and sin is the transgression of the Law. Paul says this about the Law...
Rom 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
The Law defines sin but is not sin.
Rom 7:9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
The Commandment and sin are not one in the same. Sin does the killing...
Rom 7:11 For
sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it
slew me.
Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
The Law is NOT the problem...
Rom 7:13
Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
Now read the rest of the verse, it is sin (the breaking of the Law) that is the problem.
This makes no sense. Not sure why your trying to say here.
You have stated numerous times that...
Because cursed is the one who does not obey every command perfectly from birth till death.
So, does this apply to you? Have you ever sinned? Have you ever disobeyed? If the answer is yes, you are cursed. Unless you have repented and received forgiveness. You somehow try to imply because of this statement that the Law no longer is in place and force. Yes it is.
I will ask you this.
which is more biblical? which one is saved?
The one who is saved by grace through faith, and does what he can to follow God. but knows he will fail. thus never stops trying.
Which is the underlying theme I have stated in now 1882 posts. We are saved by grace through faith and that is the faith of Christ, not our own. Grace si not universally extended to those who refuse to obey God. He does not lavish this wonderful gift on anyone who repeatedly sins wilfully without a heart to repent and obey...
Heb 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
Heb 10:27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
Heb 10:28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
Heb 10:29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
To disregard the enormity of sin and continue in it in a wilfull manner brings death for eternity.
or the one who is saved by faith, and then uses the law to keep his salvation in tact so he does not lose it?
I have never said that the act of obedience to the Law keeps salvation in tact. What I have said is that God gives the gifr of salvation to those who obey, who have a heart to obey Him. He does not extend this gift to one who wilfully disregards and wilfully disobeys.
