lol, I see enough inquisitions on Christian Forums, but you’re right, I should have added that as well.

I take the Scriptures as a whole (getting the big picture), and what I come up with fits best with as little contradiction as possible. I’ve looked at many views in studying the Scriptures and that’s where I landed.

lol, it would also mean a return to Rome with all it's Mysteries, Intermediaries, Superstitions and Work Righteousness. Indulgences anybody?

lol, The giving of the law by Jesus (going to the heart, was to show mankind was unfit to save himself, they needed the truly Obedient One to save them... For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Moreover the law entered...

So Paul was conflicted?... Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) (Eph 2:5)

Yep, I think OSAS is biblical and I believe in the pre-tribulation rapture. lol

Where does the bible EXPLICITLY teach 'salvation by good deeds'?

No, you called them 'non-Christian'. Technically, they are called Tribulation saints.

Huh? I think you have the wrong address.

Ok, difference of opinion/timing. No biggie.

Those who came to faith during the GT., mainly Jews but some Gentiles.

Mt 25:32 says 'nations', not saints. I don't plan on being there. Yes Jesus saved me while in my sins. Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) (Eph 2:5)

I believe the Church will be raptured before/during the GT, so we won't be here.

Jesus is salvation. He changes hearts and lives.

From my understanding, that isn't the G.T., it's just the prelude. Chap 8 starts the real zinger. especially vs.7. In any case, I doubt Jackson sees either as the GT.

The last I checked we are not yet in the Great Tribulation.

That sounds very Roman Catholic, are you ex-R.C.? Which is it? Avoid perishing or losing fellowship with God?
