The thing is with the Philippian jailer he was convicted he needed to be saved, that he was lost
and wanted a solution. Paul had been sharing about faith and repentance in the jail before the
incident had occurred. So the telling of the conviction of sin and need is very obvious.
Why do you always want to make the gospel into something it is not?
The gospel has always been about sinners finding redemption through Christ, the forgiveness
of their sins and learning to walk in righteousness. When will you wake up to this reality and
stop compromising and denying the very bible you have in front of you.

He chastens as many as the father gave Him, all those He loves by pardoning the eternal debt of their sin violate one guilty of the whole
Psalms 5:5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
Redemption is to have all your sins forgiven. If he would take one sin to the eternal account who could stand before his throne of Grace, and receive mercy. We fear him because he stood in our place not because we could stand without.
Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous “redemption”.And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities. Psa 130:1
How many sins has he forgiven you., all of them or just some and you must work to finish the work he started?

Yes as he, who is of one mind and always does whatsoever His soul pleases…. as he desires. He commandments men to repent not a sugestion , its turn them towards Him who has no form so they can repent (comfort themselves). No turning of God , no desire to repent of men.He gives us the desire of a new heart its where our treasure is.
The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!Thou hast given him "his heart's desire", and hast not withholden the request of "his lips". Selah.For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head Psa 21:1

imputed was a leagal term liked by Reformationist scholars and translators because they believed in Martin Luther's magical transfer of virtue myth..translated from the Greek it simply means reckoned on account of duties. Abraham DID the WORKS OF FAITH, and it was reckoned/judged to be righteous works by God...The word reckoned and imputed are interchangeable in Romans 3..I think Tyndale did a better translation concerning this matter whereas I think he only used the word imputed once or twice in his translation..False pundits will always skew the meaning of words to lend credence to mischief while allowing for provisions of carnality..the bible uses the term imputed sin as well..It also doesn't mean that sin is transferable either, its is simply reckoned on account according to the deeds done in the flesh. Sin is reckoned/imputed to those who are workers of iniquity, and righteousness is imputed/reckoned to those who do good, (IF thou doest well, etc. Gen. 4-7).VIRTUE IS NEVER TRANSFERRED anywhere within the text..it is an invention of carnal men seeking salvation while still in there sins therefore resisting the wisdom of 2 Cor. 7-11...

More deceit from spongebob....the bible states nothing of works...it clearly states he BELIEVED God and it was put to his account for rightousness and PAUL concluded a man was justified by faith before God without the deeds of the law and or works...no matter how many times you twist it into a lying false dogma of faith plus works for salvation it will never be true...but rather a lying false gospel that has no power and is double cursed....You align yourself with Cain in Jude as a false teacher that peddles works
God is clear....when I see the blood I will pass over you....by faith the righteousness of Christ is applied unto all true believers...his GRACE out bounds our sin, he forgives and cleanses us and if we still walk contrary he whips us as children.......again you fail to understand the truth and God seeing us through the blood of His righteous Son....!
Amen....there is not one place that states out works save us or keep us saved, yet the bible is replete with verses that state clearly that faith alone saves....people who add works to faith for salvation....PAUL UNDER INSPIRATION states they are foolish and bewitched by a false gospel that has no power to save.....end of story
