I wanted to be friends. You have decided to make me your enemy with your rude, spiteful, and vengeful behavior.

I told you welcome. I asked you a simple question. and your answer was to ignore the question because you have an issue with doc.

I even thanked you in advance for the question you did not answer.

maybe you would so kind as to answer now??

Sorry, I don't trust you.
 
hello. welcome. just a quick question- do you think that anyone can go to a church, or should the church approves who goes? thanks in advance for the answer.
The only churches that I know of that require approval to attend are COG (Armstrongism) and LDS (Mormons)
There may be others. I do not agree with this practice. Why do you ask?

just curious. thanks for the answer.
 
I speak for myself only. I am not " up to " anything. again, thanks for your answer.
I still don't trust you.
You appeared out of nowhere asking strange questions.
The four that are harassing me seemed to have anticipated your arrival.
Yet you claim you are not up to anything? Right.

Why should I say to someone who does not believe the bible or is an Athiest? I want to be more prepared.

Do you think a church should require approval to attend?
 
You are once saved from the power of sin if you're baptized. and you will be always saved from God's curses, shame and poverty if you always live by the Gospel.

OSAS for me does not mean you are assured that you'll go to paradise when you became a Christian even if you do any evil. it is ridiculous.

Eternal salvation is a reward that must be work out as said in Philippians.

But you thought I would agree that a church should require approval to attend?
Why?

I asked you a question. you gave me an answer, which I thanked you for.

I get the feeing you want me to accuse you of being a former member back under another name.
I am not going to.
 
We repent. Days pass. We sin. The sin I just committed IS NOT PART of the sins I confessed to when I repented. So, in order to be saved I had to repent of ALL and CURRENT SINS at that moment. That HAS NOTHING to do with future sins, only that I now have a promise that if I am sincere and repent I will be forgiven.

I took all of your scripture references and NOTHING explains when I sin today it goes back to the day I repented.

That is some straight B.S. from the Adversary you got going on there :(

Repentance is part of our walk, but again, does not replace Christ on the cross. It is Christ and Him crucified. You keep adding something more that we "have to do" in order to be saved, but Christ is enough. He, as scripture says, is the propitiation for our sins. The appeasement.

There are many things we do as a part of our walk, and a natural result of being born-again, a child of God, but to place emphasis on them as the means by which we are saved is another gospel. It is not the truth.

1 John 2 explains it very clearly. If we sin we have an Advocate with the Father, this is speaking of our High Priest Jesus Christ. Why would it say this? He intercedes on our behalf. It is not sin confession for forgiveness that grants our sin's remission, it is the blood of Christ shed at Calvary (and His application of it in Heaven, Hebrews 9:23-28).

Your last statement is ugly, especially because you have, in ignorance, called the truth "bs" and "from the adversary."
