    Salvation through Christ alone not works less any man should boast.

    Our salvation is at the mercy and grace of God of faith and not works but once faith has caused us to come alive in Christ the Holy Spirit comes and teaches us to become mature in Christ showing us that to be mature in Him we need to do good works not to save us but to grow us from a child of...

    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin !

    Oops selective use of scripture to prove your point when the surrounding verses of Jude 1:19 show that Jude was speaking of a particular group of people. Jud 1:16 These are murmurers, complainers, leading lives according to their lusts. And their mouth speaks proud things, admiring faces for...

    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin !

    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin ! Oh how big a statement this is. I was not aware that you had sole interpretation of the scriptures but I might be wrong. Freewill does not mean that we can save ourselves because salvation comes through faith and that salvation faith is not of...

    Jesus the Man from Heaven !

    Sorry my bad worded what I meant to say badly. What I am trying to say is that Jesus did not become human flesh until He came to earth, He was always the mediator between God and man but did not complete the fulness of that role until He came to earth, became like man and died for our sins. John O

    The Fallacy of Freewill

    I agree with you on this Josh and I believe that one of the reasons we struggle with sovereignty is our response to the evil question. God clearly states that as per 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long suffering toward us, not...

    A Saviour unto Israel ?

    Correct but not until Israel first rejected Him then was salvation made available to the Gentile. John O

    Saved by Grace not of works !

    The problem is that while your definition of faith is fine you then reject anyone who responds in faith as doing so out of works which therefore does not count. Hebrews 11:6 clearly states that without faith it is impossible to please Him but whenever we speak of responding to God in faith YOU...

    Freewill religion is the Man of Sin !

    Oops interpretation of God's word according to savedbygrace again. The verse says that He desires all will be saved now unless God is a liar (and He's not) it is clear that God is allowing freewill acceptance of His salvation otherwise all would be saved because as you rightly pointed out when...

    The Holy Spirit and Salvation ! -

    Come on savedbygrace your interpretation does not match what this verse said. What it says is that those who follow after the world system and self can not receive Him because to receive they must repent and they choose not to. I asked previously of your salvation I would love to know and I am...

    Ye must be born again !

    In the flesh we can do nothing of eternal value but under the inspiration of our tutor and according to the word of God, we can do all things in Christ. Salvation is but the beginning/starting place for our journey to be like Christ. John O

    Saved by Grace not of works !

    Explain faith in the context of your thoughts on salvation? In your threads you talk about faith but never in the context of your encounter with or response to it. I would be most interested. Any chance you could answer the previous questions I asked of you? 1)Eternity is set before us so what...

    The Holy Spirit and Salvation ! -

    The problem with your view on this means that no one can be saved. Can you explain how you are saved? Did you suddenly wake up saved one morning? I would be most interested to hear your salvation experience. John O

    Agreed in the flesh we can do nothing of eternal value but under the inspiration of our tutor and according to the word of God, we can do all things in Christ. John O

    Saved by Grace not of works !

    Once again I am not sure you read your own thoughts. What you seem to be saying is that salvation is a spontaneous act not requiring any input from us. If this is the case why preach the gospel because that would contradict your thinking because those according to you do not need to hear the...

    The Holy Spirit and Salvation ! -

    The Holy Spirit has been sent to us as our tutor that we might know God. Those who respond to the prompting of the Holy Spirit will be saved as they call upon the name of the Lord. (oops for some that might be works but for the rest of us that's grace) John O

    The Lord Loves You

    This is the only Love God has, and it is not for those whom He did not choose in Christ before the world began Jn 17:23-24 (savedbygrace) Excellent twisting of the word Joh 17:23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent...

    Ye must be born again !

    Excellent agree but remember God has called us unto good works: 2Ti 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. John O

    Jesus the Man from Heaven !

    Establishing a sacred fact !, that Christ Jesus, the God-Man Mediator, did pre exist as God-Man before the virgin birth, even before the world began. (savedbygrace) Jesus was not man until He came to earth as a child of the Holy Spirit through the woman Mary. Show me a scripture that shows...

    Reprobation

    Contrast your take on this with 2Pe 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. I like Peter's version over yours. John O
