Catholics
Methodists
ALMOST ALL pew jumping charismatics
Lutherans
Anglicans
Free will and General Baptist
J.W.
Mormons

The MAJORITY of so called Christian religions spew a works based salvation that can be lost....
Faith plus works for salvation is a lie, false, double cursed and has no power........!
NO wonder JESUS said the number would be plenteous that comes before his throne boasting of thier works and self and claim to fame of knowing HIM

They got it from the Catholic church, and the catholic church came from pagan Babylon.
I believe the Roman church has infiltrated the protestant churches with various teachings, to destroy the opposition from within, but also in an attempt to unite all under the roof of Rome. If you think about it, the only thing stopping Rome from getting their way is the true gospel of grace through faith alone in the work of Jesus, which is taught in the protestant churches. Since the protestants are the opposition, all Rome can do is infiltrate the churches to destroy the true gospel message and therefore successfully bring about unity with Rome, where the Pope is leader of all.
The "come out of her MY people" suggests that there are true believers being warned to come out of it all.
The protestant prosperity gospel is a renewal of the catholic doctrine of indulgences. Conditional salvation is a catholic teaching, and the protestant churches are now also teaching that salvation is conditional, that it can be lost, that there is no assurance, that works are necessary. Also another teaching floating around on here is the idea that future sins are not forgiven by the cross. Probably more than these, but just off the top of my head.
But even before the Babylonian religion was established we know that Cain is an example of one that tried to go to God on his own terms and not God's way. How many today refuse to accept God's way, the narrow way. Few are on that path, but many are on the broad road.
Not sure about the Lutherans, but I did hear that many of their churches (if not all) have embraced the catholic eucharist and believe the catholic doctrine of transubstantiation (wow, my auto correct didn't have a fit with that word, lol).
Interesting though... the majority (if not all) lutherans are preterists, and there are similarities between them and the catholics because the Catholic church believes that they are God's current kingdom on earth.

You don think that placing the blood over the door was a work? It was the first works of obedience to the truth.. Those that did not do this work would suffer the same fate as the Egyptians who were in rebellion to God....How do you seem to get child like stories in the text completely backwards? God sees you as who you are. He is not some Bozo the clown playing peek-aboo with sinners, that mischief utter is folly and ridiculous...many twist the scriptures to their own destruction as the apostle Peter said hey would. Why? Because hey look for ways to remain in their sin and still inherit the kingdom..In short; they want the best of both worlds..of such are rebellious children and refuse to come to the light "ie" (blasphemy of the Holy Ghost)
I see you quote and reference men all the time...parroting what they believe and espouse.....what you stand on and your view speaks volumes to the fact that you miss the mark on the dual aspect of sanctification and the clear meaning of justification and the eternal application of said word through faith and the blood of Christ being applied by said faith!
Faith pal......that was the key......just like Abraham who BELIEVED GOD and it was put to his account for righteousness.....The bible is clear....WE cease from our labor and enter into HIS REST by faith, Jesus has done ALL the work and the verbiage is clear....
HE that BELIEVES on the SON is having everlasting life<-----NO WORK REQUIRED!
And blasphemy of the HOLY SPIRIT was to equate the work of Christ to the devil...a PERMANENT state of UNBELIEF and one cannot be forgiven and saved if they will not believe...
You cannot even get that right....now wonder, you still trust yourself over JESUS that you can be born again!
And for one that trusts his works...I am surprised you lie so much...the bolded above...which is also false allegation

For the ones who reject truth.....
David accurately described the blessedness of the man to whom God IMPUTES RIGHTEOUSNESS without the deeds of the law (works)
There are a few who reject the imputed righteousness of Christ as a neat little trick that does not work.....
My bible states clearly that that is exactly what God does unto those who exercise faith into JESUS!
