Wow... such ladylike behaviour.This is, as usual, pure bull.
Is this the best that you've got? If so, you're way out of your league.

"No I dont", nor have I been aware of the NIFB belief until now, thanks for the responseI had a feeling!There are few people out there who are post-trib, KJV-only, once-saved-always-saved, and believe that the Christians are God’s chosen people, rather than the Jews. Do you go to an NIFB church?
Just to follow upI had a feeling!There are few people out there who are post-trib, KJV-only, once-saved-always-saved, and believe that the Christians are God’s chosen people, rather than the Jews. Do you go to an NIFB church?
You’ve clearly missed Matthew Ch 19 and many other verses of the Bible that talk about our obedience to God. But hey, you do you.Ephesians 2:8-9
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.
By grace we are saved. The Bible tells us this. It does not say that we are saved if we are good people or devoted to God in someway. God is not looking to save devoted and good people. God sent Jesus to the world to save sinners.
Romans 3:20
Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
The purpose of the law is the show us our true image. Our own view of ourselves is by far not our true image. Through the law, we realize we are sinners before God. It is clearly written that by the deeds of the law no flesh shall be justified in sight. So God is telling us no matter how much we try, God will not justify us through our deeds, no matter how good they seem to us. Therefore, no one shall enter into heaven through their deeds no matter what, is what the Bible is telling us. So what then? Does that mean God just left us to be cursed? Does that mean we can only go to hell? Not so. This is the very reason why God sent us Jesus to save us of our sins so that we can be free from sin once and for all. The truth shall set us free.
Romans 3:21-22
But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
God's righteousness = Without law
Faith in Jesus Christ = Righteousness
Unto us that believe, what is God giving us? Yes, that is right! His righteousness!
John 1:12
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
We have been given power to become the children of God. How amazing are these Words? So now, after ALL that God has done for us, do we still say that we are sinners? "Oh God, please forgive me for my sins! I am a sinner." Then we sing hymns like, "Happy day, happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away." Then right after, "God please forgive me for my sins again!" What?? Satan deceives us by making us look at ourselves and making us look at our actions. Rather than believing in our own view and what we see in ourselves, we must put all that aside and focus in on with the Bible is telling us. Just as Jesus said on the cross," It is finished.", the perfect work of God cleansing us of our sins as white as snow by the death of Jesus on the cross is finished! So if Jesus said, "It is finished.", then it surely is! And if God tells me that I am sanctified, then I am sanctified. If God tells me that I am justified, then I am justified. If God tells me that I am righteous, then I am righteous! This is the gift of God to each and every one of us who believes in the Word of God, rather than our own thoughts.
Hello again SangWooSuh, since you mentioned 1 John 1:8, I'll assume that this reply was meant for me. I seem to have failed to get the main point that I was intending to make across to you in my last post (sorry about that), that God is less interested in getting perfection 'from' us than He is in having a relationship 'with' us. I'll get back to you about that, but for now, I'll try to answer some of what you said in your latest post.1 John 1:8 is referring to confessing our nature of sin. We were born sinners. The law shows us our true image before God. It is not telling us to confess every time we sin. There are 613 laws in the Bible. Also, are you able to remember all your sins? So what happens to the sins you don't even know that is sin or the ones you cannot recall? What if you have amnesia? If we are still left with sin after the sacrifice of Jesus, then what would be the meaning of his death? If we are to sin no more after receiving salvation, then who would go to heaven? The Bible tells us that Jesus obtained eternal redemption for us. Just as Abraham's faith was accounted to him for righteousness, our faith in the Word of God gives us righteousness, freely, by grace. We could never in million years become justified through our works.
I had a feeling!There are few people out there who are post-trib, KJV-only, once-saved-always-saved, and believe that the Christians are God’s chosen people, rather than the Jews. Do you go to an NIFB church?
I'm a Spirit filled Christian that follows no man, denomination, or sect, I follow the truth of Gods words alone in the KJV, led by the Holy Spirit of GodI had a feeling!There are few people out there who are post-trib, KJV-only, once-saved-always-saved, and believe that the Christians are God’s chosen people, rather than the Jews. Do you go to an NIFB church?
I could never post awful accusations as well as you can. It reminds me of Lucy and Peanuts.Wow... such ladylike behaviour.
Is this the best that you've got? If so, you're way out of your league.
She has been watching my posting throughout the forums, not just here, and her claims are correct on my beliefHi.. I'm truly asking.. Truth7t7 posted just two verses (Eternal Security). From that you came away with "Post trib, KJV only, once saved always saved and Christians are Gods chosen people rather than Jews".no clue how you came to that..
Heb 6, Heb 10. Its clear who Paul (Holy Spirit) was writing to. Some times we need to go deeper. One case Jews were saved and would go back and offer a sacrifice for that sin. There is no more sacrifice for that sin. Christ can not die again. So to offer a sacrifice puts christ to open shame. Another is those that have tasted.. tasted was used more then once. They were never saved. Have you only tasted of Christ?Its not about believers. One can taste of God and never be saved. They then make a choice. Some heard know Christ and know He is the only way and never repented yet walk away. There is nothing out there to forgive them. This is what I have learned regarding these two verses. Forgive me I am no writer..
To the OP sorry but 4 verses does not begin to touch grace. In those 4 verses I don't see 100% grace. I have to say I keep trying and I get stuck. Well I start talking about grace and then... well its like you start to walk in this puddle then you don't know how but now its an ocean and its SOOOO wonderful. Sin which leads to grace and His death and.. I get stuck there. HOW how can I keep going with out thinking praising Him for all He has done...there is nothing else that matter then to just tell Him worship Him to know I did nothing what so ever yet some day He will say "I made this for you..what else do you want?" And a endless love forgiveness mercy grace. You first see Him in this life and you run hide you know how evil awful unrighteous you are and how HOLY HOLY HOLY He is. Then He just forgives you....you don't feel sad evil unrighteous anymore. You know you are worthy because of HIM and HIM ALONE! You know you did NOTHING! You know all the sins you did.. you tried to forget forgive you self but the enemy would never let you. As you look at Him.. He does not see it. Your hurt but filled with such joy.. you can't stop crying. Every person on the earth gave up on you.. never truly cared.. Yet you find out He always did and shows you how HE was there every time....oh how did you not see it? oh Jesus..
Yeah thats it.. I quit haha. Just gonna leave it and go. Thanks.. I want to show others the same grace HE shows me. I give to them what He freely gave to me. Jesus I don't have the words you know I don't.. thank you.. I pray the WORLD KNOWS how much you love them
If we hear the gospel, believe the gospel, and do not grieve the Holy Spirit we are saved as these verses tell us. What if we decide not to believe the gospel, or we grieve the Holy Spirit, it is OK to do that because we have been sealed because we did that once? Or is it an impossibility to decide not to believe the gospel once we have believed? Are you saying it is impossible for a human to change his mind?She has been watching my posting throughout the forums, not just here, and her claims are correct on my belief
The bible clearly teaches (Eternal Secutity) in the two verses below
Hear the gospel, believe the gospel, sealed by the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption, it's that simple
Ephesians 1:13KJV
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
Ephesians 4:30KJV
30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Ephesians 2:8-9
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.
Hello again SangWooSuh, I will continue on a bit further with answering your last reply to me (though the question that I asked you earlier remains unanswered).1 John 1:8 is referring to confessing our nature of sin. We were born sinners. The law shows us our true image before God. It is not telling us to confess every time we sin. There are 613 laws in the Bible. Also, are you able to remember all your sins? So what happens to the sins you don't even know that is sin or the ones you cannot recall? What if you have amnesia?*
You are correct, our works do not/cannot save us, the Lord Jesus' works do, and that from first to last. He saves us in two ways actually (by both His life and by His death),If we are still left with sin after the sacrifice of Jesus, then what would be the meaning of his death? If we are to sin no more after receiving salvation, then who would go to heaven? The Bible tells us that Jesus obtained eternal redemption for us. Just as Abraham's faith was accounted to him for righteousness, our faith in the Word of God gives us righteousness, freely, by grace. We could never in million years become justified through our works.
Require faith,Ephesians 2:8-9
