I said justified by faith alone and you disagreed. Cool. The way you put it, you are correct

You must really disagree with saved by faith alone, then, I can imagine.

Nice to have another outspoken saved by grace believer as taught in the Bible. . Not many hang out here

I think, you and others, get in heated arguments, when it is just a misunderstanding. I try to limit my Criticism, until I am SURE that I do not misunderstand, what he or she said. That is why I phrased the previous post the way I did. I mean others get onto you, because of lack of understanding you, and you will sometimes get onto them, due to misunderstanding. Like a few posts between DC and You, I have a Hard time understanding, because you both said the same thing in DIFFERENT terminologies, is all.

If they say, something that is just mean about our belief's, shouldn't we just thank them:

Matthew 5:11-12 (HCSB)
11 “You are blessed when they insult and persecute you and falsely say every kind of evil against you because of Me.
12 Be glad and rejoice, because your reward is great in heaven. For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

They were the 70 Rabbis who translated the Old Testament into the Greek Language, shortly before the time of CHRIST. Not sure what year that was, it says around the 2nd century BCE, and the completed O.T. is known as the Septuagint.

That was not what I was referencing.......geesh!

So DC, I was meaning to ask you.

What did Paul tell Titus to teach in Titus 2:11-15.

Why did Jesus give Himself for us in Titus 2:14?

What does the grace of God teach us, in according to Titus 2:11-12

Not in DCs Bible, I guess

Neither is 1 John 3:6. Why did you say something negative when I quoted 1 John 3:6?

All those things are about things that ACCOMPANY/ GO ALONG with salvation

Descriptive terms, remember

Are we talking about the SAME 70, that translated the Septuagint. If so Wikipedia says they translated it about 200 years before Christ.

DC was talking about the Sanhedrin and Pharisees. He likes to call grace teachers Pharisees, because they don’t think faith alone can save you, but salvation is by grace first, foremost, and last and everywhere in between

Remember when you corrected me for saying justified by faith alone. Well they say saved by faith alone

Yeah, really. If he didn’t display such self righteousness I could argue he’s trying to help people, but I digress.

Your scripture from Matthew was spot on. Thank you. You seem to be one of the wisest ones, maybe the wisest ones here

thank you DC.

And thank you VCO for saying that DC and I say basically the same thing. I told him that already.

So judge mental you are, Lightskin. Glad God put you on the Bema seat temporarily.

At least I don’t call people Norman. Take the beam out of your own eye before you try to help me

Same with DC. The guy that accuses people of calling someone insane when it never happened

Fix your own broken down houses before you try to fix mine
