The grace of God that brings salvation works through faith. Noah did believe God; hence, he was saved. At that point, God invited him to join Him in the work that He was accomplishing. While it is true that if Noah hadn't built the ark he wouldn't have been saved physically, it would also be...

That's the first I've ever heard of agape love being based on merit. What scriptures form the basis of his belief?

All this presupposes that agape love is based on merit or value on the recipient of the love. Where did you get your definition?

How does this answer my question?

So...when it says nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus, how does that relate to what you just posted?

I think my ancestors were Scooby and Shaggy. Oh, and welcome @welsh196 .

There is neither Jew nor Greek; only the new creation. There exists only 1 covenant that ever brought salvation: the covenant of grace.

The same for those in Christ?

I think Charlie Kirk and his associates were responsible for Arizona voting red this past cycle. The judge you speak of is an idiot. By his line of reasoning, anyone who breaks any law and doesn't get caught can simply say they did it before so they should be allowed to now. I know Mr Judge...

That's why I work out, so people who don't think I'm healthy won't have to worry. Where does hearing come from and what does it produce? Being pricked in the heart...what is that all about? Who works at the level of the heart?

That's 1 state. Others red states did similar things. It is not so on blue states. Until the voter rolls are cleaned up and only citizens are allowed to vote, I won't be convinced we have free and fair elections. This doesn't even deal with the government suppression of free speech, which is...

Added to the church, sure. Added to the body of Christ...that happens in verse 37.

Whoever they is. The point is, it doesn't say any believed. It does say they attempted to take Him and kill Him.

Keep reading. After He said that they tried to take Him and kill Him.

I've got some ocean front property in Arizona you might be interested in.

But they didn't believe because of the works, did they?

Verse 41 is a summary verse. It doesn't establish at what point individuals were saved. And the gift of the Holy Spirit is not the same thing as the indwelling of the Spirit. But we've swallowed that dust together before. Just out of curiosity, what do you believe is going on in verse 37?

That's a determination for the mother to make. While I don't necessarily disagree, I don't possess enough information to make such a determination. But the mom seemed to want her daughter to spend time with her father.

You are right that the lefties are far less liberal than their radical leaders to large degree. The right needs to persuade a portion of these to change tents. Concerning election fraud, simply because it was too big to rig last time doesn't mean it will remain that way. And election fraud...
