I object to subtle ' works salvation ' . Thats what I believe is at the heart of ' Lordship salvation ' as taught by Calvinism ,but unfortunately has permeated its way into many denominations.

Romans 10 ,9 -15 clearly says Jesus is Lord . So yes in order to be saved ,as it says , a person has to also believe Jesus is Lord . As opposed to a created being or such things. So having made that quite clear, what is your point ? Now the person has already believed ( 1 cor 1.21 ) Jesus has...

Its my experience that the majority of denominations teach the very thing I'm describing in this op . So could it be something else that's responsible?

Good bible teaching. How to read and apply it . Then the' Galation type errors' ( where its not Just keeping the law and circumcision, but a form of this to one degree or another is taught)would not be as rampant .

What does believing Jesus is Lord have to do with what i said ?

You left the chapter and the entire letter ? Could you walk through the chapter itself leading up to that verse please?

13¶In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of...

Does it say " in part " ?

“The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart.” So if a person wants to know what the Lord says, he can have access to it. And if a man wants to be saved, “the word of faith” is right at the two places that enable him to trust Christ: the heart and the mouth (vss. 9–10). God will...

Already answered . John 1 is referring to fellowship not staying saved .

Heres how Paul 'worked out his own salvation ' Philippines 1.12 12¶But I would ye should UNDERSTAND brethren, that the things which HAPPENED unto me have FALLEN OUT RATHER unto the FURTHERANCE OF THE GOSPEL l; 13So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other...

Its readily apparent that if you spend any length of time as a believer the most discouragement, despair, fear and doubt comes from .....Yes ,other 'Christians ' The doubt of course is undoubtedly on ' Grace ' and ' free gift ' . This is completely lost of the majority of Christians. I...

Thats a terrible interpretation of Rom 10 .9

Confessing sins AFTER a person is saved is not to stay saved . Its to stay in fellowship.

Could you read this verse and tell me what you think it means ? Eph 1 .13 13¶In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14Which is the earnest of our...

Eph 1 .13 gives a clear order in which a person is saved .

Yes you seem to have skim read what I said. I didn't say ' the Christian position ' ,as in some unified agreed upon doctrine . No i said the ' Christian(s ) position . Meaning our ( Christians / believers) position. As is regenerated, Justified , sanctified , sealed by the Holy Spirit unto...

Other letters including this one have already established the Christians 'position 'in Christ and how should walk . Romans being a good example . Imo philippians 2 is not about 'self examination ', sanctification, or any other 'self 'focused idea. Its the exact opposite of this . Its about the...

I think this is taking the assumption that its about sanctification. This would be focusing on ' self ' . The chapter is encouraging not to do this . 20For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state. 21For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's...

3Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. 20For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state. 21For all seek...
