You are promoting a salvation by grace plus works, the blood shed by our Savior for your salvation was not good enough for you, so you must drag your wonderful works with you to complete Gods plan of salvation. Your weak gospel is; God's grace plus your works, "A False Gospel." We are, "Saved by grace, not by works" a lesson you fail to understand.
A "False Gospel" right here for everyone to see: "I do believe that a lack of good works/love will damn me."
You are "mixing grace with works", a false gospel. Your gospel brings gloom and doom, not "Good News", you have created a "Self-righteous", save myself false gospel."
And also; "What Church Denomination are you associated with", everyone wants to know.
2Timothy1:9
He has saved us and called us with a holy calling, "not because of our own works," but by His own purpose and by the grace He granted us in Christ Jesus before time eternal.
Titus3:5
he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,"

The problem is that the focus on the Biggie's for us greasy gracers.
So it's ok as a OSAS believer to go out and murder and still be save, to sleep around and and still be saved"
How many belivers have you met that have said its ok to do what we want and still be saved?
How many belivers have you met that say, "We must confess every sin we commit in order be saved, be baptised in order to be saved, forgive every sin against us in order to be saved before we die, do good works in order to be saved?
If we do not they do not quantify a number other than 1 number.
Once.

Love God and those whom He sends to represent Him on the most personal level
that any of us can ever hope to understand -
Paul, His anointed and most forgiven that we can identify with on our own 'personal level',
for what we have 'done' in our most 'un-holy lives'...
we are all a 'work' in progress', own it and just stop trying to justify yourselves for your
behavior -
if you feel that you are truly 'called-chosen-elected', then 'prove it', 'walk in His Light'...

N
well amen
^_^
encouraging words
good reminder
it isnt just about what God has done
and is doing
and will do for us
but a reminder He uses His own as witnesses
and we ought to examine ourself if we are in error or walking according to the spirit
not for our gain
but for His kingdom
how much power do words of truth hold
when they are spoken in vanity?
(i think i understand what you were getting at
... God bless you)
forgive me if i misunderstood)

Now you are trying to twist what I said. The Holy Spirit produced CONVICTION (MOURNING) over my utter Sinfulness, and I cried for hours, asking for HIS FORGIVENESS. When I realized that HE HAD FORGIVEN ME, that is when His Love was poured into our hearts, in the same instant it produced LOVE FOR THE LORD, and I surrendered LOVINGLY to JESUS AS LORD meaning MASTER. All of that in the first NIGHT that
HE SAVED ME.
Then the WALK IN CHRIST began, the SANCTIFICATION PROCESS; and I WAS ABLE to start to WALK IN OBEDIENCE, because I LOVED HIM. You will learn to WALK like Christ, becoming more and more like HIM your whole life. NOTHING we do is for SALVATION, that was all accomplished by JESUS CHRIST, bought and PAID FOR. We strive to Walk like CHRIST, because WE LOVE HIM.
Many will think they are SAVED, will find out they NEVER WERE. Many because of Easy Believism, settling for something less than Genuine Salvation. Many because they substituted what they DO FOR HIM, instead of a REAL, SAVED, Personal, Relationship, with HIM as LORD meaning Master, out of LOVE for HIM.
1 Corinthians 2:9 (HCSB)
9 But as it is written: What eye did not see and ear did not hear, and what never entered the human mind— God prepared this for those who love Him.
Matthew 7:22-23 (NLT2)
22 On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’
23 But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
That is the Inner, Personal, Love Relationship with Jesus Christ as LORD that I was talking about. With out it, you will be the MANY, that claim they did all of it for HIM, but lacked that PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP.
