I learned something in this thread and am just going to paraphrase it: Past Something happened(what happened?recieving salvation by faith through Christ) Present Something is happening(what is happening? sanctification which also involves works/fruit produced) Future Something is going to...

Amen. I receive salvation by grace through faith but don't have a relationship with him, will I still be saved? Is it possible that if I don't have a relationship with God, then I was not really saved? How do we measure if someone is really saved? Or how can we tell if it's not real faith...

I thought you believed in the fact that our works will save us since you don't agree with those who say our works have nothing to do with our salvation. So I thought you were being sarcastic by giving that answer. Am so sorry, I really misunderstood you.

Oh I thought she was being sarcastic. My bad 🤗

Amen, it is ones faith and relationship with God. Hence the fruits are produced(John 15)

😂😂😂your so funny. John15:4"Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself. It must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me". I have been talking a lot and not quoting scripture. May the above scripture speak for itself.

How much faith should I have so that you don't question it?, Should it be as small as a mustard seed or as big as the mountain?. I want to have the type of faith that is unquestionable, probably like yours.

Yes I can't save myself, I have to depend on God. Without Him I cannot bear any fruits(John 15). Matthew 7:15-16"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves,by their fruits you will recognize them"... Matthew 7:21"Not everyone who...

Please show me how to answer step by step, the way you just answered me. You are right about the renewal part,my mind was partially renewed, hence, I received Jesus. However, my life did not drastically change on the spot. Still had my old habits. I need enough faith to be saved? How much faith...

I don't understand

Let's try and put it in this context "Change your mind" The mind is made up of the following: Intellect Peter realized that he rejected/betrayed Jesus Emotions he wept bitterly(felt sorrow/pestilence) Will Asked for forgiveness and decided to walk in fellowship with Jesus. Every aspect of...

Thank you for reminding me.

"To a certain extent" Calvinists, armenists etc are wrestling with this concept. e.g predestination. Yes it's very loving, no doubt about that.

That is so heartwarming, thanks for your kind words.

I also didn't get an adequate answer for that question. To a certain extent, the concept of salvation is beyond human intelligence.

Alright .

Thanks for making me aware, blessings!

I confessed with my mouth and believed in my heart that Jesus died on the cross... but that did not automatically renew my mind nor did it help in changing my ways. Some people only end here Question: Am I really saved? Every stage is crucial. I read the Bible, my mind became renewed and my...

To be honest with you, I just realized that what I said was not well thought out. Let me just say that when we look closely at the lives of the Apostles, we can see an evidence of good works. They did not do as they pleased, even Paul talks about pleasing God. The good works were their...
