God’s Word - the Holy Bible- the Gospel Message of Salvation in Christ covers the Earth..... the seed of faith is sown.... the heart of the hearer will determine if faith in God’s Word will grow.... Faith works by love, without love for the Truth faith cannot take root and grow.

Go back and ponder the parable of The Sower that Jesus taught. :love:(y)

Do NOT doubt the Gift of Salvation that God has given all that believe in Christ. There is NO SALVATION IN ANY OTHER.

Hold on to your faith! Amen. :love:(y)

You are a Micky taker....plenty of your posts take the Micky......not Godly at all....I see absolutely no building up in your posts..again very sad.

Kind of like these posts? Make no mistake, you are a hypocrite extraordinaire......hilariously sad and so remind me of a previously banned poster......she was a hypocrite as well!

You take the Micky ..even when there is no dogma of false teaching....from what I observe...you have been doing it for quite some time....You aren’t Glorifying God.....you seem to be Glorifying yourself....which makes you look silly.

Your emotions are engaged ..if you can’t see that.....that’s your problem.....I will pray that the Lord takes the blinkers off your eyes....I find you also engaging in conversation with others on this thread....agreeing with their ranting....would you like me to post one of you doing that?

There you go...EleventhHour....that’s one..plenty more of those.

Very petty and showing your emotions and where they are at.

Indeed..but I am trying to figure out who you are in Christ....so far it’s not very promising.

I am not angry at all "Least" and you can read the thread....I do deal with people differently....when they are a Jesus devaluer or a salvation loser or self salvation/faith maintainer I cut them zero slack....nor can I stand self righteous hypocrites that do just like you do.......go look in the mirror....seriously before it is too late!

Jesus would never behave in the manner that you address members on here....some of your posts come across as hateful.

Did you say look in the mirror.....I suggest you do the same thing......do just like I do?

Haven’t a clue what you are talking about.

It sounds like a misinterpretation and twisting of my posts.

Hmmm..now that is concerning.

If I am a born again ,why am I not bearing the fruits of the Spirit.

I think it would do you good to read up on that....for your own benefit.

Have you always walked in faith?
I do now........but self keeps rearing up...feelings, emotions..do you know what I mean?

It used to be like a constant fight....Spirit against the flesh...mind you it still is.i guess for all of us.

For those of you who have recently joined this site, many of us have been here a very long time. I just love it whenever newbies come in and "wonder" how we have not been banned. lolol

If you subscribed to a doctrine that believers could lose their salvation due to things they either do or don't do, you will take it either from the 4 gospels, or from Hebrews to Revelations, doctrine directed to Israel.

Peter, for example, teach all the Jews that salvation is something they can look forward "in the future", it is never present for them now.

Acts 3:19-20
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.

20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:

Acts 3:19 stated that Israel's sins will only be blotted out (past tense) when the times of refreshing shall come. That is not happening now.

If their sins are not blotted out now, how can any of them be saved now?

1 Peter 1 repeats what Peter stated in Acts 3.

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,

5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

However, if you instead subscribed to OSAS, you will take it from Romans to Philemon, which your detractors here are basically doing.

Thanks G
The difficulty or difference between me and OSAS believers is that I think of the whole plan of redemption as opening the possibility of relationship with God and not merely saved from hell. This I see from Genesis to Revelation. So they see these matters as once they’re going to Heaven they cannot miss. I see it as although I walk with Him today, I could leave Him. So many times we’re talking apples and oranges.
