    Not By Works

    The Bible clearly teaches that in all ages imputed righteousness (i.e., salvation) comes by faith not by works of the law. Gen 15:5-6. Abraham offered up Isaac years latter. Abraham showed his continuing faith/trust in God via this action. If you are suggesting that a person is not saved...

    Not By Works

    Faith is not a work is it. And God has placed a condition on salvation correct? That condition is faith in Christ Jesus, correct? We see the conditional salvation from the beginning with Abraham. Gen 15:6 Then he believed in the LORD; and He reckoned it to him as righteousness. Abraham's...

    Not By Works

    So you have people saved before they even believe. You say "Faith is a RESULT of GENUINE SALVATION." How does that work? Rom 10:13 for "WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED." but according to your view it should read "Whoever is saved will call on the name of the Lord" The...

    How was residentalien not giving God his due? Take off your theological glasses and actually read what he wrote. Look at the verses he quoted. Those that are of the OSAS view can fall into the "I don't have to do anything" mind set. What was his last line? Do you not agree with this? "People...

    Not By Works

    When we look at these verses in the context of the whole bible this what becomes apparent. Joh 3:16 The verse indicates God’s love is global, sacrificial, personal and eternal. Here is a single verse that shows us the mind of God, the heart of God and the will of God. 1Jn 2:2 The prima...

    Are we saved by faith alone or is works necessary?

    You keep saying that it is the faith of Christ Jesus that saves us so that means that it is not necessary for us to have faith to be saved. The only reason you would add our faith is if you think Christs' faith was not sufficient. You say Christ drawing all men to Himself is not salvation but...

    Are we saved by faith alone or is works necessary?

    So your saying that we do not have to have any faith at all. Interesting. You do realize that what is given to to those that believe is the promise not faith. The promise is salvation through faith. If you hold to it being the faith of Christ Jesus that saves then you have to hold to...

    Are we saved by faith alone or is works necessary?

    Christ Jesus was faithful but it is not His faith that saves us. It is our faith in the faithful one that saves us. Paul explains it in Gal 3:24-26 Gal 3:24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. Gal 3:25 But after faith has come, we are...

    Is Free Speach Under Attack?

    No you do not have to live in the US to understand free speech. Here in Canada we have a Federal Gov that has made it a crime to not call people by their chosen pronoun eg. them, Us, call a trans man she or vise versa etc. Our Gov is so woke it is hard for them to get any sleep. As Christians...

    Are we saved by faith alone or is works necessary?

    If you believe and trust in Christ Jesus as your Lord and savior then you will follow Him and try to be like Him thus that will translate into good works. Do those works save you NO but as James said faith without works is dead.
