Is there a scripture that teaches us God does hold our sin against us because we are in this life long process of sanctification, in which we don’t need to confess our sin to be forgiven? Can a singer disobey the Gospel and still be saved? JPT

Please provide the scriptures that you claim teach us that obedience is a gift from God. Let's start with that "baby step". What is neccessary for salvation is to obey the Gospel. Those who don't obey the Gospel, will suffer the vengeance of God. Here is my scripture to prove what I...

That’s what I have been saying. In order to be forgiven our sin, we need to confess it. 8 If we say that 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...

No scripture here about a gift of obedience, just more insults. I’m beginning to believe you are promoting a doctrine of your fantasy. Peter warned us about people like you. as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand...

Still waiting for you to show a scripture that teaches us their is a “gift” of obedience. Why are you insulting me? Just provide a scripture that says we are given some gift from God that is called obedience. If you can’t, then you need to repent of promoting an unbiblical doctrine of...

I never said James contradicts anyone. Those are your words. I clearly show from James the principle or law of faith. Faith comes to a person when they hear God speak to them, however that faith must be activated in order to produce the intended divine result, otherwise it remains...

Quoting an entire Chapter reference, without bothering to actually quote any scriptures at all, will not help anyone. Only those who confess their sin are forgiven. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9...

Any Gospel that does not have obedience is a false gospel. Only those who repent, turn to God by confessing Jesus as Lord are saved. 19 “Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision, 20 but declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the...

Just a question. Do you believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit? JPT

I don't, just like I don't use the NIV for study, but every once in a while I like the way it presents a certain scripture. JPT

16 Don’t you realize that grace frees you to choose your own master? But choose carefully, for you surrender yourself to become a servant—bound to the one you choose to obey. If you choose to love sin, it will become your master, and it will own you and reward you with death. But if you choose...

Yes, that is the grace part of salvation. It's called the power of God unto salvation. 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is...

No mention of any "gift" of obedience here. No mention of any "gift" of obedience here. No mention of any "gift" of obedience here. Brother, there is not one single solitary mention of God giving us the "gift of obedience" in any of these scriptures you quoted. Not one. The reason...

Do you have scripture that says we respond because we have been given the gift of obedience? I have never heard of such a gift. Where is this gift of obedience found in the Bible? JPT

So the people in hell, are going to turn back to Him, because He knows where they are ? If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there! Just because the Lord knows where you are, doesn't mean a sheep who is lost is going to repent? You have completely ignored what Jesus taught about this...

For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Believing with the heart with out confession of the mouth is not the obedience of faith. But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment...

You gave your opinion, and now you are bearing false witness against me, by saying I am teaching "salvation by works". Please explain how turning to God and submitting to Him, by confessing Jesus as Lord, is "works based salvation". Is believing in our heart and confessing with our mouth, a...

Yes, it is good news that God calls us to repent, while we are slaves to the devil, and bound up in sin. Good loves us and calls us to turn to Him, while we are yet sinners. Thats Good News. The way we obey the Gospel command to turn to God, is by confessing Jesus as our Lord, which...

Believe is a spiritual action of the heart. When coupled with the corresponding action of obedience, [which in the case of salvation is confessing Jesus as Lord], produces the intended divine result of salvation. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth...
