Thank you God for sending your Son, Jesus the Christ, to earth in order to save all from their sins and to reconcile man to you. Blessed be the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen

Salvation and living life as Christ wants us to are different issues. Salvation is once and for all. Living a life pleasing to our Lord is a daily challenge and can be held up only through faith, perseverance and growing in grace and maturity made possible only through yielding to the Holy...

Watched a movie on Prime Video last night called "The last full measure." It was a perfect example of a person (medic) who laid down his life for over 60 people. He chose to go where he did not have to go. He was a hero of the Vietnam War. It took 30 years for those people whose lives he...

Hope that each of you had a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving.

To lay down one's life for another is awesome. To lay down one's life for all mankind is saving and glorious.

I am so grateful for such a merciful God who tells me He has a gift for everyone and it's FREE because it's a GIFT.

OH my dear. I am so thankful you are ok. God is so GOOD, Merciful

This thread has been "off topic" many times. The topic always comes back to Salvation "not by works."

I love Dr. Charles Stanley and his style of preaching.

It's very difficult to "turn the other cheek" especially whenever that person has supposedly been a friend for over 20 years. But then we must remember Christ did show us how it's done, as he went to the Cross for everyone.

John 5:24 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. John 3:36 - He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the...

Well the Lord already knows if we are sincere whenever we publicly accept Him and go through the process of baptism. So, He knows who is truly asking for salvation and who is (Pharisees) doing such for show. There are those just like that group who think because they go through the motions...

Chester, my living the christian life was not "tacked" on as you put it. If you read that sentence you would have understood it to say "as a result of our salvation" we would most certainly enter into that life style because we are "saved" and there is my point.

Becoming saved through the gift provided by God Almighty who gave His only begotten Son in order the save the souls of His Creation is not complicated nor are there certain laws, formulas, procedures, etc to follow. The Lord made it simple but He will inspect the heart of anyone who comes to Him...

I looked at Chester's words and saw what he said. The "salvation" part was the main point in my original post. Chester speaks of not liking the "all we need to" which as far as salvation goes, faith in Jesus Christ is the "all we need for accepting Jesus whom as given the "grace" for us to be...

You are entitled to approach Christian living anyway you like but there is a "need to" for salvation and the bible plainly tells us how and why (the need to) which is not an angle IMHO

Faith is believing, without seeing, God Almighty, and accepting His Son, Jesus Christ as our Savior and Lord. "Works" has nothing to do with salvation. As for works, there are people who do not know Christ yet they do good things. There are people who know Christ and have accepted Him yet they...

If "legalism, laws" and trying to keep them are what people believe will give eternal life, then Christ died for nothing. To mingle legalism with grace distorts grace and makes a mockery of the Cross.

The "all we have to do" is pertaining to "salvation" and not how to live the life example of Christ. The "acceptance" part comes first and foremost. There are lots of "good" people living a good, clean life but who have not accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Just think, God loves us so much, even with all of our sins, that He gave His only begotten Son to be the ransom for all mankind and all we have to do for eternal salvation is to "believe and accept" the Son of God, Jesus Christ the name above all Names
