Sorry to dissapoint you, but I am not worried about what you think. ;) One thing is sure: my salvation does NOT depend on what anyone believe or do, but on God and His Son.

Believing, being born again, being saved, not loosing salvation, getting baptized, ... Every one here looks they got so many things. No one can be born again by himself. It is the Father who make people His children ... nobody adopts himself to a father; it is a man, a couple, those who come to...

You are talking about yourself, and I think is true what you say ... but when somebody thinks of himself, that he is already saved and he won't loose what he supposely had already, then that person can easily fall in sins and believe it doesn't matter ... I can see that here a lot. PD: Again...

It is not to difficult to understand, seing how many people is here saying they're saved and not showing the minimal love for others. LOVE is a work and not loving others is a sin.

There are many people who declare themselves saved ... I wonder how that can be, if everyone's judgment has not yet arrived. Nobody is saved just for believing; that is a myth. It is evident that those in Mat.7:21-23 believed they were saved ... but they were not. Nobody can loose something...

The expression "glorified body" ... can anyone tell where in the Scriptures we hear about it? Php 3:21 ος μετασχηματισει __ (idea: meta-schema) το σωμα της ταπεινωσεως ημων __ ( having a human body is not a humilliation, but compared with Jesus' body is a very simple and humble one) συμμορφον...

Nobody can earn salvation ... I don't need anyone telling me that. But you can loose salvation; "working out the salvation" is doing everything necessary not to lose it: works. I wonder if when Jesus talk about obeying him you are taking it seriously. :unsure: Rom 1:4 (ESV) and was declared to...

I think a balance here is very necessary: even who say that we need works, they don't think that works are giving us salvation. Everyone knows it is not that way; no matter how many good works we do, we are not buying salvation; in the other side, people who think that is only grace must...

What you just said here reminded me something that happens all the time to my father. He is 73 years old. We came from another country to US ... My father does not speak English at all. When we walk down the street and my father sees a sign that says FREE, he thinks that the service or product...

I don't think a human can be born again if stay sinning ... that's a myth. 1Jn 3:6 (ESV) No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him.

Hi Nat ... I did not mean we all are practicing sin ... I believe that all humans get sin from Adam, that is unavoidable, even for people who obey most of the biblical principles ... even so they still are sinners, because they are humans; not only because what they practice, but because what...

There is something interesting about two words in greek very deeply related with this matter and I invite to the ones who like to go deeper to give us all their consideration about it: 1) the word "faith" in greek means LOYALTY also; 2) the word for "believe" in greek means OBEY also. Hope it...

1Jn 3:6 (ESV) No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. What have to do a person to not "keeping on sinning" but working out his own salvation? We all are sinners, but some of us need to fight hard against our weaknesses to not...

You are an example of persons who talk back against people all the time and don't use Scriptures. I just registered in CC and already saw that. Can you talk about the Scriptures I cited, cite some yourself, and stop talking about teologies and people?

According to Scriptures, or according to how some people interpret the Scriptures? Have you noticed that I am citing Scriptures and some responses to my posts don't? Have you realized that when some people use Scriptures in here looks like what hey are trying to do is to look themselves as...

Totally agree.

It looks to me that too many people put their faith on their own faith, but not really on Jesus.

The man didn't do anything but believing in Jesus, very much thuth ... But not for believing in Jesus he was already healed. Jesus had to heal him and declare him free of whatever he did. The power of healing was not in the man, but in Jesus who has the authority to forgive sins.

That is a myth; good works don't come automatically in anybody's life. We must will and act. Act 26:20 but declared first to those in Damascus, then in Jerusalem and throughout all the region of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds in...

About this I posted before: When someone thinks he already have been saved for his own faith, it is him, himself, who is saving himself .. it is not his faith ... That person is declaring himself saved. But is he declared saved by Jesus? ... when Scriptures talk about faith on Jesus saving...
