Of course it's true that we're saved by grace through faith (and trust) in Christ alone, not by works.........says the dude who flatly refuses to accept that one is saved by faith and trust in Christ only, and keeps insisting more is needed....
I shouldn't have to point this out but "forgiven" and "pardon my transgression" is the same thing - and both mean "taken away". Let's stop with your false dichotomies, OK?Is that the same verse ? Looks like a different one ?
So, I corner you theologically once again, and leave you with no argument, so you resort to ad hominem?With respect and I would rather say this in the hope that it may help. Let go of the SDA garbage. It has you in a fog where you can't see past it . Wake up !!
You Dispensationalists claim Jesus will come "as a thief in the night" to rapture the saints before the 7 year tribulation, but Peter says when the day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night, at that moment the Earth is burned up, according to 2 Peter 3:10-12 KJV, right or wrong?Matthew 24 is tribulation passage. The church is raptured prior to it.
You keep trying to make false dichotomies. The OT people were saved the exact we are: by grace through faith.Hebrews 9
15And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
That has zero impact on how people were saved and empowered to live righteously in the OT. They were to look forward to Cross while being saved exactly the same way as we who look back to it.Sins were covered but not redeemed until Jesus redeemed them on the cross .
the Spirit is free from the Law
this is what i mean-Of course it's true that we're saved by grace through faith (and trust) in Christ alone, not by works.
What is false is the OSAS crowd's belief that "we're saved by faith and trust in Christ to keep on forgiving our habitual, deliberate, known sin from which we refuse to repent."
I'm pretty sure Jesus told those who love Him to keep His commandments, right or wrong? (John 14:15 KJV)Hi can I ask you.. are you their/mans God? No why does it or would it bother you? Its written we are not here to please man. The "many" you used answer to Him not you or me so what they do praise GOD. You post this knowing the debate about the Sabbath, its been going on way before I was even born. We listen to a preacher and we go home thinking.. you know.. I don't do that.. maybe I should. See what you're doing here Christ never does. He will not judge us nor condemn us. Its always our choice. He will whisper something by that sweet holy Spirit where you will never feel guilty or condemned.
Now I am thinking in this day and age God might be saying "you've been RESTING WAY to much" haha
Phoneman's Guide to Talking Out Both Sides Of One's MouthStep 1. Repeat after me:
"Christians are not obligated to keep the Ten Commandments."
Step 2. Repeat after me:
"Christians are not at liberty to break the Ten Commandments."
If Elijah were here, he'd ask, "How long halt ye between two opinions?" which we down here in alligator huntin, gumbo eatin, Cajun territory translate as, "H'long y'all gon' sit on dat fence, cher?"![]()
Elijah's love for God grew so cold that he prayed for death so he could go be with God, next to God, never to leave the presence of God, right?Elijah's love waxed cold, yet he endured in faith, and is saved.

Oh, so you NO LONGER believe salvation covers a Christian's deliberate, habitual, known sin from which he refuses to repent?this is what i mean-
the first sentence is correct.
but, just like all legalistic Bible thumpers, you keep talking and add other conditions to salvation.
is this now turning into an OSAS thread? lolOh, so you NO LONGER believe salvation covers a Christian's deliberate, habitual, known sin from which he refuses to repent?
Congratulations, you've broken through the fog of popular Churchianity and come to understand Biblical Truth.
Do you understand the concept of "compare and contrast", right?
Hey Brother was he not running from a women LOL That will have you crying for death everytime LOL ahahahBut he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree. And he prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!”(1 Kings 19:4)what does he mean, "no better than my fathers!"
?
why does the LORD renew and redeem him at this time?
Elijah's love for God grew so cold that he prayed for death so he could go be with God, next to God, never to leave the presence of God, right?![]()
repeat after me Jesus is the only way to God, not the law. And you are only concerned about one law that is the Sabbath. Which you do not keep today.
