Rom 2:6 fits other verses as Matt 16:27; Matt 25:31-46; 1 Cor 3:8; 2 Cor 5:10; Rev 20:12,13. Rev 2:26 the ones that overcome are the ones that keepeth Christ's works.....with overcoming based upon works. To the 7 churches in Asia, Christ judged them by their works "I know thy works" Rev 2:2...

The phrase "calling upon the name of the Lord" does not mean just calling out to the Lord but means to do what the Lord has said to do: Lk 6:46 "And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" Mt 7:21 "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the...

Jesus requires believing to be saved, then that makes believing part of Christ's law therefore those that do not obey the law by believing will be condemned Mk 16:16. Yet Jesus did not stop with requiring believing and nothing else but also required repentance, Lk 13:3 confession MAtt 10:32,33...

You have not yet proven from the bible that the unbaptized will be saved by belief only. The facts presented to us from the bible is: Grace>>>>>>>>>>>>saves Eph 2:5 Faith>>>>>>>>>>>>saves Eph 2:8 Baptism>>>>>>>>>>saves 1 Pet 3:21 Since there is just one way to be saved, no alternatives...

Faith/belief is commanded and therefore is part of Christ's NT law. This leaves the unbeliever a lawbreaker and lost.

Jn 6:45 "It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me." This verse tells me HOW God draws men and it does not involve any kind of irresistible drawing. God draws by His word when men are...

Where did I post I was seeking condemnation???? The unbeliever who is not baptized is the one Mk 16:16 says is condemned. The one baptism (Eph 4:5) is Christ's baptism of the great commission, Matt 28:19,20; Mk 15;15,16; Jn 3:5; Acts 2:38 etc. Christ's baptism is to be taught, practiced, is...

1) Rom 9:13 is taken from Malachi 1:1-4 which was said centuries AFTER Esau died, not before Esau was born and therefore is not said about the individual Esau. The context in Malachi 1:1-4 is about people/nations and not about individuals. God loved Jacob means God loved Israel. God hated Esau...

You posted "If love working through faith" when Gal 5:6 says "faith which worketh by love" The reason Gal 5:6 says 'faith which worketh by love" is because faith is a work and is dead if it is not a work James 2. Eph 2:8----------faith>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>saves 1Pet...

1) such an idea put moral culpability upon God for those He fails to 'instill the desire to do His pleasures" 2) Phil 2:12 goes with verse 13 which shows those that are obeying God are the ones that God is working in. For example, God commanded Noah to build an ark and Noah obeying proved God...

Rom 13:8-10 is law each person must follow or be accountable for on judgment day.

God, not me, has made baptism a law/command Acts 2:38. Just fact baptism has been made a command makes it necessary to salvation if for no other reason for no one can be saved who lives in disobedience to God. Jn 5:24: 1) for one to "not come into condemnation" requires that one CONDITIONALLY...

How can one be a saved believer yet does not do the will of God? Lk 6:46 "And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" Remembering without ceasing your work of (what kind of work?) faith, and labour of love, THe term 'faith' describes the type of work Paul was speaking...

This "exercise of religious routines" as you call it is what the bible calls obeying the will of God..doing righteouseness and without this work of righteousness one remains unrighteous and not of God. 1 Jn 3:10. In Rom 6:18 Paul told those to whom he was writing they had "become slaves unto...

Heb 11:7 "By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith." Did the work in building the ark earn the saving of Noah's house...

There is no verse that says "believing is not a work". On judgment day we are told God will "render unto every man according to his deeds". Those saved will be those who have done the deed of believing. (Once again: From the A&T guidelines; "Subsequent responses either opposing or adding...

Again , too many verses speak to the fact water baptism is the means God has chosen to save men. No 'physical exercise' that is, doing nothing cannot save anyone. How can one obey the commands of the Lord (do righteousness), Jn 14:15 by doing nothing? A person that "does nothing" would then...

Jn 6:45 God does draw by His word when men are "taught", "heard" and "learn" then men of their own free will "cometh unto Me" God draws...men come. Man can fall away from Christ and become lost yet can repent and come back to Christ. Rev 2:1-7

There are too many verses (Jn 3:5; Acts 2:38; Mk 16:16; Rom 6:3-7; 1 Cor 1:12,13; 1 Cor 12:13; Col 2:12-14; Gal 3:27; etc etc) in the NT that speak to the necessity of water baptism. Why? For God has chosen water baptism as the means by which He saves. The verse(s) that does not exist is one...

3 Jn 1:11 shows that man has both that ability to do good or do evil. I'm not familiar with a verse that say man "cannot do good" due to a sinful nature. If total depravity were true then man could not do good under any circumstance for he would always choose the evil. God is good, God stands...
