1 John 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 4. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Is it possible to be saved and not know God?
1 John 3:14- We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.
Has a person who does not love the brethren passed from death to life?
1 John 3:18-19- My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.
The key word is BASIS. The basis for our keeping God's commandments, and loving the brethren, and loving God, and bearing fruit, is not to obtain eternal life, nor is it to retain eternal life, the basis is because WE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. In other words, if you have eternal life, there will be fruit and love and obedience, albeit not perfection.

a. works burnt to a crisp.
EVERY christian is going to have some works burnt to a crisp...
b. Cut loose for the destruction of the flesh
THAT THE SPIRIT might be saved in the day of the Lord. In other words, physical chastisement leading to repentance for the purpose of saving a soul from JUDGEMENT
c. Burn inheritance through riotous living.
You mean the prodigal who was LOST and DEAD? The prodigal represents sinners coming to Jesus. Remember? The setting and occasion of the parable of the prodigal son was publicans and sinners coming to Jesus and the scribes and pharisees murmuring about it?
d. What fruit, commandment or obedience did the thief on the cross exemplify?
Faith in Jesus. Faith is a FRUIT of the Spirit. SO is love. What kind of Christian doesnt do these? One who is a Christian in name only.
He that says he knows God and does not keep God's commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him. (1 John 2:4) You are not arguing with me, you are arguing with scripture. Can't help you in that case.

Strawman argument, LOL. IF YOU UNDERSTOOD what Jesus meant when He said "I am the vine and you are the branches" you would not debate me on this.
I don't seperate friends like Grace and Faith. Since when did Grace and Faith become enemies? (and where did I say saved BY keeping a commandment. We are saved by Grace through faith, therefore it is grace that saves us, but it is through faith)

All God. to argue that I am saying otherwise is a strawman. Jesus said "I am the vine, you are the branches".
that true believers love, keep the commandments, and bear fruit is not saying that we are helping Jesus save us. That is absolute sophistry.
I am saying that it is the VINE that gives life to the branches. The vine produces the fruit, not us.
You have enough strawman to build a scarecrow army.

Does no good to debate one who is deceptive......nor one who denies what they have said and or one who twists the word as you do......
and you are obviously MISSING who the commandment was given to.....but hey.......par for the course from one that cannot keep it straight.......you have a lot to unlearn and relearn if you are going to be right by God......

1. SOME will have works of God, silver and precious stones <--does not say they have works that are burnt, but rather purified
2. Does not say the Prodigal was lost and DEAD......he was very much alive and only perceived as dead......AT WHAT POINT WAS He not a SON......go ahead and tell us when he was NOT A SON
AND like normal....you conflate justification and salvation with SANCTIFICATION.......
The error of many like you with eternal consequence........

We really should be careful in not accusing each other, as it is the spirit of satan.
Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

No i did not misread at all, again those are characteristics of those who are saved, not prerequisites of getting or maintaining salvation
No one here demies this, yet you keep attacking them, then wonder why your seen as a legalist, you dig your own grave
And no one is arguing this, yet you keep pushing they do
Once again your digging your own grave, stop feeling sorry for yurself because you refuse to listen to what peopl say,
Oh and ps, in case your wondering, there will be many baby christians who produced little fruit because they did not grow, in heaven right beside the people, who matured and produced great masses of fruit.
God loves them all, because they are his children. He adopted them, he saved them, he gave them eternal life, and he will not go back on his word!
