Do you believe this bible scripture and how does it fit into your 'saved' theology? Matthew 6:14-15 King James Version (KJV) 14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: 15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive...

I can also admit to seening a lot of good works perfomed by many good Christians that believe they are born again and saved unto good works for the love of Jesus and our fellow men. It is wonderful to see, and the Jesus is pleased with the effort.

Are you saying that the decline is due to those who declare they are saved are burdened by the good works that Christ has prepared for them to do? So burdened by the whole new person in Christ deal that is supposed to unleash one's desire unto good works, that they give up on the church they...

What do you think 'practicing the truth' means. It is doing good works.

So you would agree then that not being about your Fathers business, and have no or little good works is an example of not being saved? If your first statement is true, then my second statement has to be true also.

We are not saved by works, but your faith in Christ leads to unto good works that Jesus creates for you to do. So to be about our Fathers business is to be about good works with a joy that we are in Christ. Of course it does not matter to an atheist if they do good works. I do not doubt the...

We think that is part of the salvation equation. I could quote you many many scriptures of Jesus telling us what we also need to be saved. Scriptures that you ignore.

And so the endless false gospel of works salvation is taught against in all the churches, and the end result of preaching agains good works, is that good works is not thought of as a necessary element in the true gospel, and therefore good works are even looked down as a satanic work to adjust...

Good works is still the sign of being saved. Just take a note of all those in your Christian circle that follow the model of Jesus Christ and the good works that he did day after day after day, and tell me you know someone that even remotely approaches that standard? Remember your motto: The...

Thank you for that information. One of the good works that Christ mentioned in the parable of the sheep and the goats was that the sheep took care of the prisoner. So again, thank you for your service in Christ.

Will a spiritual flesh be able to eat real earthly food and digest it?

It will not have blood, because I think the blood will be replaced by pure spirit. But in order to eat things, I believe you have to have muscles etal.

I should not even have posted a response to your post. No need to argue this subject. So you can have the last word, and I will not respond to this particular subject again.

You always have to remember that if you have a mind that good works is a burden, and you do not have time for it, and you just can't be bothered etc., then maybe your new person in Christ, the one that loves to do the works of Christ, and follow him, was not instigated in the beginning. It's...

Oh, I don't know, let's look at a couple of possibilities that he was saved. 1) he was the son of a very important prophet 2) he followed his father and did as his father requested to help build the boat 3) he was 1 of only 8 people in the world to be saved by the arch. I would say he was...

Sorry that is not me.

Do you think I believe that you can lose your salvation each and every time we make a mistake? Hello, anybody home? Have you ever heard of the word 'repentance'. I know you do not use it much in your circle of friends, because why repent, if Jesus automatically wipes away my sins, every...

Thats all good, but at least 1 of these sealed up people were cursed of God (Ham) and lost his salvation. So not a particularly good analogy.

To give our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God is to serve, encourage, give, lead, show mercy, etc., etc., etc., are manifestations of good works. So our living sacrifice is to do good works. We keep our eye on the cross, we trust Jesus and have faith in his grace and with...
