Those working their way into the kingdom have less of a chance making it in than eternally-gratefull has in making a post without a typo. :D

I don't think he meant antichrist so much as...anti-Christ or against -Christ. :)
I agree with you concerning the must and the will. And I think Phart would agree on that too. He can speak for himself on that though when he wafts back into the room.
I know Frans argumument was that people like me refuse t say must, and PHart has liked her posts, so I can only go by what I see.

that is our contention and our division

if he disagrees h can say, although I will not see it

No he doesn't I had to clarify that post. PHarts post was accidentaly attached to the post I was responding.
I have known him a while now and have respect for him.

Mind you we don't talk about who drives on the right side of the road though:)

This is the outcome of "doing good works to be saved or to keep being saved". This is an anti-Christ belief system.
Yes, that is the idea G7 was stating, that when we substitute our works ....for Christ work ..... then we are putting our works in His place.

anti properly understood mean in place of

which makes it an anti Christ system of belief


I think both are wrong,

doing work is an antchrist event, never heard of this,

but doing nothing is just just as wrong, a true child of God can't do "nothing"

again, that is the difference between the two groups

they think one MUST do work,

We think they WILL do work.

Only one word is changed, but that one word changes the meaning altogether.

Nor has this side ever denied grace...[/QUOTE]

Have you read all those posts from the previous evening Meggido? I would disagree here.

ooh have I missed something?

I wasn't saying that about PHart, I was responding to Stone's post.
It seems though for some reason PHarts post has seemed to attached itself to posts she is making.

I have known PHart for a while and he knows I have nothing but respect for him.
And likewise, I have nothing but respect for BillG.......even though he drives on the wrong side of the road, lol.
He is a dear brother.

Oh no, we gotta big problem sister and salt wont fix it. UG's post attributed a quote to me that was from someone else. And it's all your fault because you didn't raise up that ipad in the way it should go...

Nobody in this thread had said works substitute Christ.

Nobody.

Nice try trying to clean it up though.

This is pretty funny!!! :D

I always have at least five extra redundant words.

I'd take a Mac if someone gave it to me..... & trade it for a PC.;)
Since Brexit the price of a Mac has rocketed.

I have the IPad Pro and IPhone but have no desire to get a Mac.

Same with a Big Mac as well, but I,like the fries.
