That's true. And it says "that is what some of you were" in v.11. So the ones who still ARE, they were not santified or justified YET.

This is what Scriptures says about it: 1Cor 13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels but do not have love, I have become a sounding [piece of] brass or a clashing cymbal. 2 And if I have the gift of prophesying and am acquainted with all the sacred secrets and all knowledge, and if I...

In Matt 22:40 Jesus said that on loving God and the neighbor "the whole Law hangs, and the Prophets". The Law of Moses was based on a Constitution-like document. The christians law is based on following the principles on it, the spirit of the law, which is the real meaning of the Law...

All christians, no matter how they think of themselves about salvation, will be judge by their works besides their faith in Jesus' blood. Rom 2:6 And he will render to each one according to his works: 7 everlasting life to those who are seeking glory and honor and incorruptibleness by endurance...

I would like to know what is the answer of this question ... What do you think about it? Before his death, was the body of Jesus a "glorified body"? If not, how so? If yes, how you can prove that with the Scriptures?

I just said that baptism in water is something that all christians must get. I did not said anything about its meaning. All christians were baptized in water in the first century. The baptism in water must be in the name of Jesus ... and that means it is not the same as baptism that John...

Baptism in water is mandatory for Christians as Preston39 showed with Scriptures. That's why the christian baptism in water is not the same baptism John applied. In the new christian baptism in water there is something new: it is realized in the name of Jesus ... but it is a baptism in water...

The saved ones are saved because Jesus' blood alow them to be ... but everyone will be judged for their works: Rom 2:1 (LEB) Therefore you are without excuse, O man, every one of you who passes judgment. For in that which you pass judgment on someone else, you condemn yourself, for you who are...

EG, read the passage again, you are going beyond what it says: Mat 10:22 and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.

EG, Jesus is talking about SALVATION ... I don't need the expression "eternal life" to understand what SALVATION means, do you?

Not EG. Jesus is talking about the one and only salvation that every christian is waiting for (some believe they already got it, though) ... and Jesus is not wrong Luk 13:23 And someone said to him, "Lord, will those who are saved be few?" And he said to them, 24 "Strive to enter through the...

You are saying Jesus was wrong, not me. His words are clear enough, but you are trying to give a different interpretation. Tell me something, please: what would have happened if Jesus had failed in the temptations that the Devil submitted to him?

I cited 10 passages: what Jesus said, what Paul and Peter said, what happened to David and how he saw it, about the crown of life, ... It is everything about the same: salvation is reached at the end of the christian race, not a price someone gets at a moment before that. Check again, please...

I don't think so. My cites are clear enough and not further interpretation is needed ... You cann't try to force the Scriptures saying they must adjust to your way of seing things; at the contrary: you must check if Scriptures support what you were thinking about that matter.

I don't think anything you are saying, those are your words. I just cited Scriptures, i.e. the truth, isn't it?

Jesus talked about persevering to the end to be saved: Mat 10:22 (LEB) and you will be hated by everyone because of my name. But the one who endures to the end—this one will be saved. Luk 13:24 Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will seek to enter and...

Jas 1:12 (LEB) Blessed is the person who endures testing, because when he is approved he will receive the crown of life that he has promised to those who love him. 13 No one who is being tempted should say, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no...

Jas 3:5 (LEB) So also the tongue is a small member of the body and boasts great things. Behold how small a fire sets ablaze how great a forest! 6 And the tongue is a fire! The world of unrighteousness, the tongue, is set among our members, defiling the whole body and setting on fire ?the course...

Nobody is saved by works, but nobody is saved without them: Heb 10:26 (LEB) For if we keep on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment and a fury of fire that is about to...

1Co 9:24 (YLT) have ye not known that those running in a race--all indeed run, but one doth receive the prize? so run ye, that ye may obtain; 25 and every one who is striving, is in all things temperate; these, indeed, then, that a corruptible crown they may receive, but we an incorruptible...
