    Faith is what God rewards. Faith is how Abraham became the father to all nations. Faith is how Isaac was spared from death. Faith is what God seeks. Works is what mankind does, with or without faith. There are all kinds of "works." Good, bad, ugly. The Works of Man are simply as filthy rags...

    So then you rule yourself to perfection? 1 John 1:8–10 "8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make...

    No born again person is without sin . If we say we have no sin, we are not being truthful. Why? Because we have that spiritual side which is willing to not sin but we have the "human nature" side which is sometimes difficult to control. As long as we are in these bodies of flesh, we will sin...

    Some churches in America and all around the world are changing the message of God's Word to suit culture, period. Our bibles are not written to "suit" anything other than the Word of God and the need for mankind to be reconciled to the Creator. We humans messed it all up. Only God can fix it...

    Letting our light shine before men is how we show our love for God and it will show on our faces but that is not "works"

    That's a winner for me. I'm not going to coddle, sweet talk anyone who divides, sways, twist the Word of God nor whatever I say. That is what some on here have begun to propose. If they want to do so, ok but the only "preaching" I will deal with is from my Lord.

    Perhaps we are giving too much attention to what is not the OP which this thread was started for. How about we get back to that OP and discuss it.

    Let me be clear about myself. 1. I do understand every poster is a human being and that God loves all of mankind. 2. I often use my avatar but sometimes put up my baby dachshund as he looks better than me. 3. I do not believe any "doctrine" but I study, love, the Word of God as presented in...

    First off God says his servants must not "strive." That would include "arguing" about His Word. God's Word is never wrong. I'll stick with God's Word.
