Faith alone,not saved by works,when we confess Christ,for we are in the flesh,and have not received the Spirit yet,for that is all we can do is have faith,and our works are as filthy rags.
Faith alone,and not saved by works,only applies when we confess Christ,for we are in the flesh.
When we receive the Spirit the responsibility falls on us to maintain our salvation,for we work out our own salvation with fear and trembling,and a person is justified by works,and not faith alone,and if you do not continue in the goodness of God,you will be cut off.

God said He wants all people to repent,and to come to the acknowledging of the truth,and be saved,and the Spirit and bride say,anybody can have that salvation.Jesus lights every person that is born in to this world,which everybody can see the light of Jesus and be saved.
God had the plan to give mankind salvation before He laid down the foundation of the world,so it is the same as the saints have salvation from the foundation of the world,and this salvation is to whoever wants it,like the Lamb was slain from the foundation of the world,and the prophets blood shed from the foundation of the world,although they were future events.
God's kingdom is love,so He would not choose people to be saved without their input,for then it would not be true love,and God is not evil to condemn people that have no input in their destiny.It goes against the nature of God.

The Bible says those that name the name of Christ has to depart from iniquity.
Do not depart from the living God by the deceitfulness of sin.
Be righteous,and sin not.
This separates the children of God,from the children of the devil,those that do not do righteousness is not of God,neither those that love not their brother.
If a person holds unto sin their soul is not saved,until they get rid of the sin.
If a person holds unto sin the blood of Jesus cannot wash it away.
Sin does affect our relationship with God,and if a person does not want sin they can abstain from sin by the Spirit.There is no excuse for sin.

The Bible says if anyone preaches that God blesses with material things,and money,for our wants,withdraw yourself from them,having food and clothing,be content,and they have erred from the faith,and James,their faith is dead,and John,the love of God does not dwell in them.
God only blesses with our needs,and not our wants,and some people pray amiss to heap it upon their lusts.
If any person loves the world,or the things in the world,they are not of the Father.
Some people want to hear their beliefs according to the flesh so much,that they go against what God said to hold unto their beliefs,of no responsibility,no worries,no stress,can live like the world,enjoying vacations,cruises,material things,worldly entertainment,and it does not affect their salvation,even though God said it does.
What do they not get.
Jesus said many will say to Him why can't we dwell with you,and He will say they were workers of iniquity,for they have a form of godliness,but deny the power thereof,ever learning and never able to come to the truth that sin does affect their relationship with God.
They will not allow the Spirit to lead them,for they want to enjoy things of the flesh.They will not let go of the flesh,so they make an excuse they are alright,and want to hold unto their beliefs so much that they go against what God said,abstain from sin by the Spirit,and this is what separates the children of God,from the children of the devil.
