I agree with everything said. And also that the term “easy believism” is a response to antinomianism. But more importantly, those who attack “easy believism” also attack Gods grace and the work of Christ in salvation by going to the extreme of placing ones works as a means to justification. On...
The self righteous religionist! Boasting in how good and obedient he thinks he is. Not surprised such nonsense is tolerated on this forum though. The reason you believe what you do about Paul’s writings (Gods Word), is because you don’t believe salvation is completely in Gods grace and centered...
First sinful man does not have free will as you see it. Sinful man has no autonomy outside Gods control and Sovereignty. Sinful man, apart from regeneration, has no inclination or desire towards spiritual good. Second Romans 9 gives a good reason why God created man. To demonstrate His mercy...
It means what it says. Only God can open the heart and give understanding. Only God grants repentance. All you can do is proclaim the truth. One plants, the other waters, but it is God alone who gives the increase.. no man can come unto Me, except it were given unto him of My Father. John 6:65...
And this is where we disagree. Faith is always the fruit of being regenerated by Gods grace upon hearing the gospel of Christ. It is why salvation is all of grace, and that not of yourselves. And you know what I mean by man centered. Arminian soteriology is man centered. There’s no grace in man...
Both were not saved. This is evident in their actions. There are many wolves in sheeps clothing that do not possess the faith that is given by God, via regeneration. A counterfeit and superficial belief are nothing more than tares among wheat. The reformed or Calvinistic view of soteriology is...
It is the Spirit that quickeneth; the FLESH profiteth nothing: THE WORDS I SPEAK UNTO YOU, THEY ARE SPIRIT, and they are life. John 6:63. They are symbolic
Both are definitely not sound doctrinally. So your whole premise of using them as examples for sound doctrine on this subject is worthless. Both the orthodox and RCC teach works salvation.. that’s a denial of the gospel! Paul condemns the Judaizers for the same exact thing in the book of...
Eastern Orthodox and Catholicism are far from believing eternal life is secure in Christ alone, through faith alone apart from works simply because both teach works salvation and is full of idolatrous practices that lead and have lead many astray. I will repeat for the last time too, if one...
Yes you are. Then you would have to believe Gods Word contradicts each other. As Jesus said, whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.. John 3:16. In verse 9 of Hebrews 6 it speaks this way, But, beloved, we are confident of better things concerning you, yes...
No those scriptures do not teach salvation can be lost. That’s a humanistic works righteousness interpretation. Just teaches that they were NEVER known by God our Savior. These post are full of contradictions
I’m sure the Judaizers said that salvation isn’t by works either lol! Losing salvation by works is to believe salvation is gained by works and must be maintained by works. The deception is clear to the elect of God in Christ. Riding the fence, are those who can not stand on either side of this...
IF you abide rt? So everything said before that “IF” is nullified to justify mans works being the ultimate foundation for being saved, not Christ and His finished work. So how is what being said isn’t any different than the Judaizers? IF “you” don’t abide by the laws of Moses, one cannot be...
To become born again or quickened by Gods Spirit, IS to be saved by Gods grace. Titus 3:5. This is the problem with “free will” Arminian (Pelagianism) soteriology. You are contradicting yourself and centering and conditioning salvation in man. Man centered theology which results in works based...
