The Security Of The Believer

May God’s good ways shine upon you.

I believe the gospel is 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. The gospel is believing that Christ died for our sins, he was buried, and risen the third day for our salvation.

But 2 Thessalonians 2:14 says the gospel calls us. This call of the gospel (not that it is the gospel) is ….

God has chosen you to salvation through Sanctification of the Spirit and a belief of the truth (2 Thessalonians 2:13).

Do you care to give me a word for word commentary on Galatians 6:8-9?
How about Romans 8:13?
How about 1 Timothy 5:8?

If our witness is not His true Gospel, is that not evil? If our witness condemns believers, is that not evil? If our witness draws the flock away from His true Gospel, is that not evil and wolf like? A born-again believer that is discerning and growing in His Grace can spot this evil by their rotten fruit/evil deeds.....wolves.

Our words are fruits(deeds.) Our witness is a fruit. If our witness for the Lord Jesus Christ is not His true gospel, it is evil and we are wolves.

Rom 3:23

John 3:16

Acts 16:31.

There is nothing more perverse than preaching a false gospel.

but yet you claim he can take away something from them they can not have without him

are you suggesting he might not

even if I gave you the correct answer you would still not believe.

Well at least not now that is

Bingo.
Darn.

Is that do you care or do you dare 🤔

that's what you did before.

This thread has been all about you

I wouldn't mind but it's not even your thread you've hijacked it.

The thread was for security of believers, it's turned into the thread for devils

Yes, we know Him. The reason we know is because we keep the commandments. But it doesn't say keeping the commandments produces eternal life. The whole book is a set of proofs designed to let believers KNOW that they have eternal life...5:13. This is the key verse in the epistle and establishes the purpose of the book...These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that you have eternal life,...
So picking one of the evidences of knowing that one has eternal life and calling that eternal life is the problem here. You are one of any number of Judaizers who have joined the site recently and are trying to teach others here that we should relate to God on the basis of the law. That has been tried and has failed. That's the whole reason a better covenant was necessary.
Thankfully, based on the pushback you are receiving, people aren't falling for it.

The gospel is 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 . It is believing that Christ died for our sins, He was buried, and risen the third day for our salvation.
But you need to realize that 2 Thessalonians 2:14 says that the gospel calls us (not that it is the gospel).
This call of the gospel can be read in 2 Thessalonians 2:13.
This call is… God has chosen you to salvation through Sanctification of the Spirit and a belief of the truth (2 Thessalonians 2:13).
This is confirmed by Romans 8:13, and Galatians 6:8-9 and by the immediate context of 2 Thessalonians 2:13.

Proverbs 28:13 says he that confesses and forsakes sin shall have mercy.
It’s not…. Believe on the finished work of the cross alone your whole life, and you will have mercy.

So one will not confess and forsake sin always if they hold to the view that all they have to do is believe on Jesus for salvation.
Hence, we will know them by their evil fruit or bad deeds.

The context of one being a wolf and knowing them by their fruit (Matthew 7:15-16) can be found in Matthew 7:26-27.
Jesus says everyone who does not do what He says is like a fool who built His house upon the sand and when a storm came, great was the fall of that house. Jesus taught the Parable of the Talents whereby the unprofitable servant was cast into outer darkness (Matthew 25:14-30). Jesus warned how how certain sins can condemn our souls in the after life (Matthew 5:28-30, Matthew 6:15, Matthew 12:37, Matthew 25:31-46, Luke 9:62, etcetera).

This is talking about “Initial Salvation” by God’s grace through faith.
If not, then you must believe Romans 3:11 applies to your current state as a believer. Romans 3:11 says you have no understanding and you don’t seek after God (Which if it is the case, it would disqualify you in teaching me anything).

Keep reading down into John 3:19-21. Pay close attention to verse 20.

This is an example of Initial Salvation, and not what faith looks like lived out.
I agree that we can believe on Jesus to be initially saved.
But what does faith look like when it is lived out? See Hebrews 11 for some examples.

your still not ready to accept it because your last posts confirms it, and it wouldn't be right for me to give a word that of this moment in time you will deny.

There is a time and place for everything and leading someone to reject the word is not my sorte,

So you don’t have to keep the commandment in 1 John 3:23 to know Him?

It’s a walk or a cooperation and not a hostile take over.

I fail to see how preaching the Word is uplifting myself. Actually, in Perpetual Belief Alone Salvationism, it is all about you and what you can get away with. In Perpetual Belief Alone-ism, it’s all about justifying some kind of sin on some level. Confessing and sin to have mercy is not necessary according to Proverbs 28:13. It’s not about picking up your cross and denying yourself to follow Jesus at all. It’s all about believing in Jesus and nothing else really. So then one does not even need the Bible if that is the case.

Meant to say confessing and forsaking sin to have mercy according to Proverbs 28:13.

There are sins of Commission, like do not steal, do not covet, do not murder, etcetera.
There are also sins of Omission like things you don’t do for God in this life, like not preaching the gospel (Luke 9:62), and not helping the poor (loving your neighbor) Luke 10:25-37, Matthew 25:31-46, loving your brother (1 John 2:9-11, 1 John 1:7, 1 John 3:10).
We have to confess and forsake sin to have mercy (salvation) (Proverbs 28:13). See also 1 John 1:9, and 1 John 1:7.
All of this is a part of the faith involving the next step of our faith in the Sanctification of the Spirit.
The first step is being saved by God’ s grace through faith in our Initial Salvation (which is a process of salvation without works) (Ephesians 2:8-9) (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) (Romans 10:9-13).

But most Christians today believe they can sin and still be saved on some level all because they have a belief alone in Jesus as their Savior or because they believe in the finished work of the cross. I believe many Christians will be surprised just like those believers mentioned in Matthew 7:22-23. They could not fathom or accept the idea that they were working iniquity (Matthew 7:23) and or that they did not do what Jesus said and thus they built their house upon the sand, which later led to a disastrous end (Matthew 7:26-27).

Christianity is about believing you have a saviour you have it wrong.
