the thread is fine....
its just some of the occupants that for some reason think it is indeed "by works" (their works more specifically) that they are saved
Your post is the epitome of what I mean because you'd even argue with what is so glaringly true: The thread is ad nauseam and ad absurdum.
It is an illustration of the definition of insanity; arguing the same thing over and over day and night with the same characters who get banned then return under a new moniker, and expecting a different result...
There is nothing to gain but a waste of ones day arguing with the same people over the same recycled drivel.

look
i post because ive gotten pms from people who were confused...
younger brothers and sisters
who were starting to believe a false gospel
so now im going to keep posting here
even if look insane
but to be honest with you
...
i do wish we could all come to an agreement (on the truth)
I know, but this thread is the definition of insanity.
And, sometimes you just gotta learn to ignore those you repeat the same things to day and night, unless repeating the cycle is profitable. It's not. This is why the mandate is to ignore them, not rinse, repeat, rinse, repeat. Probably why Paul instructed us to just avoid them.
It's like many on here expect a different result, then wake up and repeat the cycle all day long, then do it again, and again, and again, and again.

to be honest
i wish youd post in here more brother
ive seen you make some valid points from a different perspective than me
Look.
Of course you're going to keep repeating the same thing expecting a different result, it's what you do all day. There is nothing profitable in that, if you receive a PM, cool, answer it, but to argue with these that return over and again under different monikers is a waste of time. And to argue with the one who lies and repeats the same thing over and over, and give the same response over and over in many different angles is frankly asinine.
There is life outside of this forum, believe it or not.

you make a valid point
about the SAME argument bit
lol
also about the life outside this forum
but i dont expect a different result from the false accusers
i expect different on lookers to see these liars proven wrong
How could it be called salvation if it does not save to the end?
Have you received your new promised body to go along with your new spirit and new heart, like any other saint you will die not receiving that incorruptible body?
What stage of salvation are you in seeing you say it comes in parts?
You are dividing up the one work of faith required to know God ,it’s a work of Christ faith founded on his ability to give mercy not that of our own self but his work to purify our hearts by a work of His faith according to His three day labor of love.
It would seem you are suggesting His work fell short of the glory of God..
If you separate the work of salvation that he began in us into parts . There goes what a person thought was salvation .I always though that the word salvation meant just that.
Do you think he will finish that which he began in His new creatures, us?
Just who is your confidence?
Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
So the its a yes or no. Not in part. That simply is not so.

poor spelling. So now I am a Spell Checker Criple. But I was getting that way any how. So praise the Lord.
Go there,
Tell everyone of the shyness of a sparrow, and the swift song of courage.
I remember when I was young, there was a love I had.
In the begining, what is to come, and all that is a Breath of Light and song of night. first to sing were the winds as they coarsed the earth. The trees soon heard and their branches testified of the song. Whose branches The birds made their homes always remembering and singing of The first song.
The tree whose roots bore through mountains, drawing nutrients and warmth from the depth of its begining. Whose very roots being intimately woven are given strength by the gentle passer by that guides it's life. A tree having a guardian that navigates the intricate spaces is rarely known to those that have not ventured the sacredness of the trees roots.
Though if they were to ask, they might find faith well placed . There they might even find a promise of eternal Life..
An elemental principle of immeasurable composure. And yet as gentle, tempered in patience beneath ones feet. Our Lord stands firm.
As a person person begins to recognizes the clorfull song birds.
They will remember their first love.
To sing.
Just as a sparrow clothed in the cream browns of an autuum forest is barely noticed.
They gently pass by and remind us all that the Lord brings us closer together when meekly arrayed.

Yes, praise God brother.
You aren't a Paul. Not even close. Paul didn't preach what you're pushing.
Okay, Jesus said "Be ye perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect." (Matthew 5:48).
Jesus said to be as perfect as the Father is.
Let us know when you've "worked" yourself up to that level.
As you know..the same has happened to me...I keep posting for those who will not go back and read the thread, but rather jump right to the present postings....I have had several thank me for my stance and incessant posting because it help cement in their mind the truth about biblical salvation...that alone is worth it to me.....
Agreed. I was merely pointing out to Ralph, that if one judges by the outward appearance (as he does), it is easy to be fooled.
he has not said it directly, that is why I said " if you think...", he has hinted at it, and most of these workers for salvation have the same schtick, and most of them think they do not sin. i.m basing my thought on past interactions with them

Well ignoring is one option but it isn't necessarily "better" all it gives way for is for others to get their minds scrambled,like say if all of us who are opposed to this "staying saved gibberish" or "you can be unsaved after being saved rubbish" and we put them all on ignore they wouldn't have an audience to preach to in us but some "troubled souls" might "buy" their garbage and souls be lost to "satan",either way it's no "quick fix".
