we are saved not by anything we have done but because of God's purpose and grace.
this grace was given to us before the beginning of time.

that's what scripture says ((see above)) :)

God gives us the grace to persevere until the end if we choose to cooperate with this grace.

how is it false? inheriting kingdom of God is salvation he said.

but if you dont inherit the kingdom of God where are you but outside the kingdom? whats the correct doctrine here.

Salvation is a one off event based upon faith, the inheritance is subject to gains and losses based upon faithful service ir a lack thereof.....2 different sides of a coin!!

IF A SON (BY FAITH) THEN AND ONLY THEN JOINT HEIRS WITH CHRIST and JESUS DETERMINES your inheritance at the bema seat......SOME will be NAKED AND SHAMED WITH NO inheritance but A SON NONETHELESS

Those scripture passages you posted do not destroy the scripture passages about everyone's need to persevere until the end.

I'm persevering this thread and staying in the liberty found only in Christ that keeps me from being put under the bondage of persevering Works for Salvation. lol! :giggle::love:(y)

So sorry, if I offended you, I just couldn't help posting this comment........:giggle: I find humor in things that others might not. Wishing you the best! :love:

We're only disagreeing on our beliefs, please know you are loved and accepted in the Beloved. God will fix us! :love:(y)
