I was wondering when the workers for, Pharisees and Cainologists were going to come out with their own bible......notice the following possible embellishments based upon what they believe and their their own words....

For by self effort have you been saved through works, and that of yourselves, it is a debt owed and of works so that any man may boast

For by works of righteousness which we have done, and not according to his mercy has he saved us

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever works for him, should not perish, but have everlasting life as long as he keeps working.

He that worketh for the SON is having eternal life as long as he keeps working

He that works for the Son is not condemned, but is having everlasting life as long as he does many wonderful works

*DISCLAIMER* The above representations are not found in scripture and are the exact opposite of what the bible teaches and quite possibly represent the views of those who believe we must embellish faith with works to gain and or keep salvation/eternal life.

Hi theanointedsinner, please tell me where does this kind of talk come from. If you are angry about something that was said you should bring that to the table and explain why you are angry. At this point all you are doing is escalating the problem with your hateful words. It appears that you want to "drag" someone to "hell"

If I am misunderstanding this conversation please tell me, and God bless.

That is NOTHING to joke about. Or do you NOT realize that SATAN IS A REAL THREAT?

1 Peter 5:8-9 (HCSB)
8 Be serious! Be alert! Your adversary the Devil is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for anyone he can devour.
9 Resist him and be firm in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are being experienced by your fellow believers throughout the world.

Hi VCO, many would agree this is nothing to joke about. Unless you and I are misunderstanding the intentions of the poster "theanointedsinner." and exactly to whom is his post directed to, it does not say.
