So many people are confused as to what scripture says about the remission of sins. Please look at http://www.biblestudytools.com and do a search in the King James version for remission. Then look at every passage which has that word in the New Testament. Then look at the meaning of the words...

i dont believe in works-based salvation, Lamar does. That's why I posed him that question.

LOL now do you want to stop skirting around the quesiton and give me a real attempt at a truthful answer? Im talking about true saving faith. One has it. Now what is the cut off line in terms of good works does one need to know they're saved? Or is it a guessing game until your final breath?

it's amazing to me that the you need to be baptized to go to Heaven crowd honestly thinks if a man truly accepted Christ as His savior, repented of his sins and is now lined up to get baptized but dies of a heart attack before he gets dunked is going to hell forever. To stay intellectually...

so how much or many "good works" does one have to do before securing his own salvation, lamar? How do you know you've done enough?

Anyone else witnessing the heretical preaching of roman Catholicism and works-based salvation, please step up and snuff it out. Do your part. we cant let this preaching go unchecked on this board. This is CHRISTIAN CHAT not Catholicism chat.

Lamar do you just throw out all of Eph. 2:8? "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast." How clear can Scripture be? It literally tells you HOW to be saved and how NOT to be saved. You are 100% saying...

"Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’...

Faith based believers: What do you think will become of these faith PLUS works salvationists? Will God turn them away? I mean, they are literally saying Christ's work on the cross is not enough and essentially saying ''hold my beer (ahem, grape juice*) Jesus while I perform greater works of my...

You said this way better than I could have, Im not good with words. But this is the mic drop post that really should just this thread.

I wonder what the Catholics and the other law-based salvationsists think of matt 12:31 "31Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. 32Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but...

if these catholics want to live by the law they will be judged by the law.

youre just another works based salvationist. It's wrong and damnable. I guess we wont see Paul in heaven since at the time of writing to Tomothy he said "A faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into this world to save sinners, of whom I am the chief". Notice...

that why i said IF

We are baptized by the Holy Spirit at the moment of salvation when you trust in Jesus Christ as your Savior. (Matt. 3:11; Mk 1:8; Lk 3:16; Jn 1:33). It is baptism in the Holy Spirit that gives us eternal life when we believe in Jesus Christ. Immersion in physical water may clean the flesh...

If you go to heaven and you try to add ANYTHING to the accomplished work on the cross you are going to hell. Nowhere in the Bible does it teach Faith PLUS anything but repentance, and repentence is a prerequisite to faith. You can't get to saving faith without it. Good luck to you bringing...

Another poster who has NO clue what James meant by that. Read and study. Soak it in. https://bible-truth.org/James2-24.html

so it was faith PLUS baptism that saved you? Ok so the thief on the cross is in hell because he wasnt dipped in the magic saving baptismal water.

Exactly!

what does the bible say about being saved on faith alone?
