It is not conditional, It is Son Jesus for us all
There is no more work of self or others to do. Only the done work of Son working that out through us each that sincerely believe, as God knows all, I assuredly do not, thank you Father and Son as Won (One)
So we each can and will be and are one with you Father and Son as Won for us to love in the same mercy and truth to all, thank you
What does "it" refer to? Salvation? If so, then you disagree with Paul's Gospel per Romans and Galatians:
1. Romans 1:16 says the Gospel reveals that (s/e) is for “everyone
who believes”, both Jew and Gentile.
2. Romans 1:17 describes s/e as “righteousness from God” that is
by faith “from first to last” or from creation until the end.
3. Romans 2:4 teaches that God’s kindness or patience with sinners is meant to lead them toward
repentance, which implies that sinners are able to repent because of God’s leading.
4. Romans 2:5 warns that those who
do not repent but instead stubbornly resist God’s leading are storing up wrath against themselves for the day when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed, which implies that God enables sinners to repent–or not (cf. Deut. 30:19).
5. Romans 2:6 affirms what is called karma by saying that “God will give to each person according to what he has done”, which (in Gal. 6:7-9) is called reaping what a person sows.
6. Romans 2:7 speaks of the need for “
persistence in doing good” and seeking glory, honor and immortality in order to receive s/e or eternal life, which echoes what Jesus commanded (in Matt. 7:7) and connects with the doctrine of perseverance (cf. Heb. 10:36 & Jam. 1:3-4).
7. Romans 2:11 teaches that “God does not show favoritism” (cf. Eph. 6:9, Col. 3:25, 1Pet. 1:17), which is how God judges people justly, so the fact that
some sinners ignore God’s Gospel indicates that His will or leading is resistible because of MFW.
8. Romans 2:15 teaches that sinful souls have a conscience or awareness of “the requirements of the law”, which may be combined with Romans 1:20 to teach that God’s power and moral nature or will may be perceived via creation and conscience (called natural revelation), thus those unfamiliar with God’s Word in Scripture have no good reason for resisting divine leading and choosing atheism/evil.
9. Romans 3:20-21 states the law makes souls conscious of sin and that “the Law and Prophets testify” or prepare the way for the new revelation of righteousness from God apart from the Law, which takes up where Romans 1:17 left off.
10. Romans 3:22a says that “righteousness from God” or s/e comes
through faith “in Jesus Christ” (cf. Eph. 2:8), a phrase Paul used eleven times in Ephesians 1:3-14 to indicate s/e.
11. Romans 3:22b says that God’s righteousness is given “to all who
believe—there is no difference”” signifying that all sinners may believe or be s/e (cf. 1Tim. 2:3-4, John 3:16, Tit. 2:11), because there is no favoritism (#7).
12. Romans 3:23 teaches that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”, meaning that no one can be good enough to earn salvation because of their own merit.
13. Romans 3:24 says sinners “are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus” (
via faith per v.22, cf. 3:27-28); s/e is free because Christ paid the price/cost.
14. Romans 3:25a explains redemption as being “a sacrifice of atonement” for those who have
faith in Christ’s work of dying in their place.
15. Romans 3:25b further explains that God demonstrated his just patience (#3) or forbearance in leaving unpunished those sins committed before the revealing of the Gospel (foreshadowed in Gen. 22:8 & 13), implying that sinners had/have the opportunity to
believe and be s/e thereby demonstrating God’s justice/not showing favoritism (#11).
16. Romans 3:26 continues to emphasize divine justice by declaring it three ways (“justice…, just…, justifies”), which justness is synonymous with righteousness (2Thes. 1:5-6, Heb. 6:10).
17. Romans 4:1-25 presents Abraham as a Gentile who became the physical father of the Jews and the spiritual father of all who choose to
have faith in God/Christ.
18. Romans 5:1 echoes Eph. 2:8 by describing s/e as justification through
faith, Eph. 1:5 & 7 by using the phrase “through Jesus Christ”, and Eph. 2:14 by describing s/e as having peace with God.
19. Romans 5:2 & 5 also echo Eph. 2:18 & 3:1 by describing s/e as having access to God’s grace via the Holy Spirit.
20. Romans 5:6-10 states that God’s love (cf. kindness in #3) for the ungodly, for sinners and for His enemies is demonstrated by Christ dying for their s/e or justification/reconciliation.
TOP #131: Do not pervert the Gospel of Christ by reverting to belief that salvation is earned via observing the law. [Gal. 1:6-9, 5:1-12] Such doctrine is anathema or condemned (1Cor. 16:22). The purpose of the law of Moses was to lead people to faith in Christ (Gal. 3:22-24). This truth is akin to TOP #37.
The reference to an angel from heaven deserving condemnation to hell is reminiscent of TOP #128 (Gal. 1:1-10). As a reason to
believe the true Gospel, Paul described how he received it from Christ via revelation even though he had been a zealous anti-Christian. There are discrepancies between the account of Paul’s activities in this epistle and that of Luke (in Acts 9, 11:25-30, 12:25, & 13-15), but Gal. 2:1-9 seems to refer to the meeting in Acts 15 regarding a dispute with “believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees”, who said that Gentiles must obey the law of Moses, beginning with external circumcision. Verse 10 refers to the request for Paul to collect alms for the poor in Jerusalem (cf. TOP #125). Verses 15-21 refer to living by
faith in the Son of God rather than by obeying the Mosaic law (cf. 2Cor. 5:7).
In chapter three Paul illustrated obtaining salvation via
faith by sharing the example of Abraham that is also cited in RM 4 (TOP #26). Paul said we are redeemed from the curse of the law because by faith believers receive God’s Spirit (cf. TOP #27). He also stressed that the promise or covenant made with Abraham included his “seed”, referring to Christ, and the law Moses introduced 430 years later cannot annul it, so the purpose of the law was to specify sins rather than to serve as the means of attaining righteousness (Gal. 3:15-22).
At this point
Paul returns to his concern that his preaching is being perverted before citing the example of Sarah and Hagar as figuratively representing the Gospel of Christ versus the law of Moses (Gal. 4:8-31), which Scripture commands to “get rid of” (in Gen. 21:10, cf. #132).
TOP #134: Continue to be free of the law by having faith in Christ so that you will not be “alienated” and become “fallen away from grace”. [Gal. 5:1-5] This indicates the possibility of apostasy or intentionally repudiating saving faith (cf. Heb. 6:4-6).
TOP #135: The only thing that matters with regard to satisfying GRFS is having faith that is expressed through love. [Gal. 5:6&14, cf. TOP #27-29 & TOJ #129] Love in its various forms manifests the fruit of the Spirit (called the “new creation” in 6:15). Those who pervert this truth, thereby leavening the Gospel with heresy, deserve their penalty including emasculation (Gal. 5:7-12).
TOP #136: Do not cite freedom in Christ as an excuse for committing sins. [Gal. 5:13] These sins or “acts of the sinful nature” include: sexual immorality, idolatry, hatred, rage, drunkenness… and conceit (Gal. 5:16-20&26). These evil behaviors manifest the opposite of saving faith and love or living/being led “by the Spirit”.
