Not at all.
Your doctrine does not line up with the bible ... it is a concern.
Look, by deductive reasoning and truth...IF one can LOSE it, then ONE must do something to MAINTAIN it...that DEVALUES JESUS and lifts self....regardless of any and all that try to spin it a different way....and I will flat OPPOSE that false ideology until the day I go to be with the LORD or HE cracks the EASTERN SKY.....
People that devalue JESUS by lifting self is clear as......fakes, frauds, faux, and every other word of like calibre and order

Again, where did I say that one works for Salvation? Please read correctly.
Question, what does this have to do with time and chance?
Throw more wood in the stove
Acts 7:51-53
"You stiff-necked people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You are just like your fathers: You always resist the Holy Spirit!
Was there ever a prophet your fathers did not persecute? They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One. And now you have betrayed and murdered him--
you who have received the law that was put into effect through angels but have not obeyed it."
Acts 22:20
And when the blood of your martyr Stephen was shed, I stood there giving my approval and guarding the clothes of those who were killing him.'
slaves to sin while claiming Christ.
1 Cor 5:11
But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.
Make straight your paths through faith in Christ, or be lost for all eternity.

Then why do you think you have to maintain your own salvation, thus in essence exhausting yourself. Ie, you CAN do something..
yet we praise God for working in us, and keeping us in HIS power to the end, and we do not exult Jesus?
something wrong with that picture.

James 1
26 If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless.

Good thing we are not saved by religion.
this poster seems to think we are
as I keep telling him, good luck with that,
The comparison of the human spirit and faith converges around their modes of operation. The spirit (Greek pneuma) may also be translated as "breath." As a breathless body exhibits no indication of life, so fruitless faith exhibits no indication of life. The source of the life in faith is not works; rather, life in faith is the source of works (Ephesians 2:5-10).
I lift Him up, brother man. Even if I get a bowl of Corn Flakes. Because in Him we live, and move, and have our being. Yes! Having been made righteous through faith in Him, I can even eat breakfast to His glory. Can you understand that? What being made righteous means?
How on earth do you divorce the two??
why do people still listen to david wilkerson after he prophecied falsely on more than one time?
