[quote:Anonymous Coward 4781813:MV8yMDcyNTQwXzM0OTE3NjMxX0I1Q0M3RTMw] [quote:Syn Dominus 29265601:MV8yMDcyNTQwXzM0OTAwNTAxXzNDMTA4MkEz] OP stop perverting the gospel and spreading the HERESY of Lord ship Salvation. Galatians 5:4, "Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace". The verse is self-explanatory. If a person is trying to justify themselves by keeping the law, then they have turned away from being saved through God’s grace, through faith in Christ alone. God brought salvation to mankind by His grace in sending Jesus Christ to pay for our sins. (Titus 1:11). Salvation is offered as a free gift to anyone who will receive it by faith in Jesus Christ, believing that He died and rose again in payment for their sin. Ephesians 2:8,9 states very plainly, "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." Galatians 5:4 does not teach that you lose your salvation; but, rather, that you do not have salvation when you turn, or "fall away", from God’s offer of grace and try to justify yourself by good works. "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." (John 3:36). I'm not saying you should live a life of sin, and yes being genuinely saved does produce fruits, but it doesn't dictate whether you're saved or not. Jesus Christ does ALL the saving. Did not KIng David sin? Peter deny Jesus 3 times? Are you saying if he died that night in his sin he would have went to hell and wasn't saved to begin with? Are you saying you're holy and without sin? Self-righteous Lord Ship salvation HERESY. No amount of good works will ever save us (Isaiah 64:6) and no amount of good works will ever keep us saved; since we were not saved by good works to begin with. (Titus 3:5). I John 1:8 (addressing Christians) says, "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. Salvation is a FREE gift, paid In FULL by the blood of Jesus Christ and resurrection. Why pervert the Gospel?? In Romans 11:6 we are told... "And if by works, then is it no more grace, otherwise work is no more work." In other words if eternal life is by grace; it is by grace alone. If it is by good works, then it is by good works 100% and not one bit of God's grace is involved. Salvation is either 100% by grace or entirely by works, not a mixture of the two,no matter how little of each we try to add. If we take the Word of God as our Authority, the answer becomes clear. Works = Rewards, not salvation. If you want to bring up scriptures about Faith without works is dead, etc, I invite you to read this incredible book by Dr. Max D. Younce. It will explain everything, which seems is something you need preaching the Heresy of lordship salvation. http://www.heritagebbc.com/library/salvationandthepublicinvitationweb.pdf "For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness." This is a direct quote from Genesis 15:6. This is when Abraham was saved by faith without works. This was Abraham's justification in GOD'S EYES for salvation. God does not need works to know we are saved, but man does. Now, notice again in James 2:17, "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone." James continues and illustrates this point by using Abraham as an example,"But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?" James refers here to a different time in Abraham's life, many years after he was saved. This record is found in Genesis 22. This is justification in MAN'S EYES. If we say we are Christians and our way of living does not back it up, then no one will believe our testimony. We must have good works to substantiate our faith; or, our testimony will be dead and lifeless as far as anyone believing what we say. When we claim to be a Christian, our lives are always watched by someone. Matthew 7:21-23 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them , I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Notice the people here were depending on their own self righteousness, and didn't believe Jesus Christ as their savior. What is the will of the father? John 6:40 40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. :hf: [/quote] ^^^ABSOLUTE HERESY^^^ Who made YOU fit to interpret the Gospel?? Best you read the Letters of St Peter again and take heed. For the road is narrow, not WIDE as you make it to be..ALL you types are of whom He speaks. Repent. No one is saved unless they turn from sin and confess their agregious pride in rejecting the narrow path and embracing the wide. Satan is proud of you and kyour man-made doctrine for it is inspired by none other than Himself. [/quote]
