Whether true or " pure ", you don't want to offer to God anything untrue or impure.Somehow you have mixed up the word “true” with the word “pure”. They don’t mean the same thing in everyday usage or in Bible usage.
There are many such adjectives, all as irrelevant as those. Janes used the word “pure”, not the word “true” so we cannot use James’ words as criteria for determining which religious belief system is correct.Whether true or " pure ", you don't want to offer to God anything untrue or impure.

That's why I used parenthesis on pure, quoting James. It was not to determine " religious belief systems ", it is to determine God's view on religion, which are good works, not to obtain salvation, as" religious systems ' aim for, but because we, who have received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, are already saved.There are many such adjectives, all as irrelevant as those.

You're follower Luther's perversions. If you don't like it I don't care.
It's amazing how you can't grasp how bad faith and that Jesus said on this rock I will build my church. You arent arguing with me friend. I can read to I don't need your interpretations unless you can show evidence that your interpretations are authoritative
Two plus two is four; not three, not five, and not 78.79.

You add to and subtract from scriptures at convenience just like your theological grandfather Luther.
It's so much easier to control the masses if they are illiterate. But these days you have to work at it a little harder by convincing them they're reading it wrong or prove that their logic is flawed. Ugh, remember when you could just silence them with a guillotine? Man, those were the days...Uh huh remember when no one was literate?
those were the days huh.
I see your point, but I still think that the expression "pure and undefiled religion" can be interpreted as "true religion" in the context of James 1:27Somehow you have mixed up the word “true” with the word “pure”. They don’t mean the same thing in everyday usage or in Bible usage.
All religions lead to God, Mat 25:34-46

The good news that sinners will be saved via the faith expressed by Peter in Matt. 16:16 and first manifested by Abraham per Rom. 4.
The HS was given to faithers for the purpose of teaching truth (John 14-16).
It is inane to think the church would be based on a sinner rather than on the HS/GW.
Don't forget to include Roman Catholicism in your list of errors.
The method God employs to convert sinners is persuading people to change their minds Acts 28:23-24.
Obedience to a pope or church is the mark of heretical cults (Matt. 23:9).
To a point, yes.I see your point, but I still think that the expression "pure and undefiled religion" can be interpreted as "true religion" in the context of James 1:27
Jesus Christ IS THAT ROCK! It is Christ's Church, HIS Body, His wife and Christ is it's Head.
and there are two different words used one for Peter (stone) and another for rock (large mass)
Christ said call no man father --Uh how does that work?? how do they get around that one?
Peter, petros, rock the Jesus built his church on just kike he said he would and promised the gates of the netherworld won't prevail against it despite your efforts it still stands
