K...I’m not trying to dismiss your post. I’m not in a place to be able to answer it fully. I will tomorrow.

Who cares! If we can’t lose our salvation and there’s no need to REMAIN in Christ, then who cares who comes in!! You’re not thinking logically.

Re: What is His name?

It's so hard talking to Christians who believe we're forgiven and saved by grace through faith in Christ AND [add in some works]. It isn’t a works-based salvation. If it is, then you have issue with SCRIPTURE since I’ve plainly given the texts to back it up. It is faith-based...solely on faith. Fai...

Re: What is His name?

NO! Faith doesn't WORK and it's not caused nor held together by works. If you HAVE faith, then works will be there - works are a result, not a cause, of one's faith. Being obedient is a SIGN of one's faith. You’re contradicting yourself...does faith work or not? If work is a result of faith, then f...

Re: What is His name?

So, faith without works is dead faith(which is still faith, it's just dead)? Or is faith without works, no faith? In other words, faith without works is dead, meaning not producing good fruit? Or is dead faith not faith anymore? I think you’re able to read and comprehend, RickD. What does the verse...

Re: What is His name?

Bavarian: "Maintain it? Not hardly. I don't maintain my salvation to any degree. It is secure in Christ as long as I remain faithful." Contradiction much? "I don't maintain my salvation" ... "as long as I _____________." That is saying it is secure, but based upon your...

Re: What is His name?

How does anyone think that THEY can manage to retain their own salvation? You couldn't earn it, NEVER deserved it, were entirely dependent upon God, as a poor beggar to receive it - and yet you think you can maintain it? What, by following all of the rules? Anyone who thinks they can maintain and p...

Re: What is His name?

When I use the term, "Committed to Christ," I'm referring only to those who really have truly believed and placed their faith in Jesus, and have expressed to Him their desire for Him - AS OPPOSED TO - people who once merely prayed a prayer and only intellectually believed, and only EXTERN...

Re: What is His name?

so I consider myself a Christian with some Jewish old testament beliefs (Jesus did not come to change the Law of God). Christianity is Jewish...except that the Jews should have let go of the 600plus laws that were a shadow of things to come. The Jews/Hebrews looked forward to a Messiah and salvatio...

Re: What is His name?

It may be God's sovereign will that allows us to choose, but it still remains OUR choice. Well, the FIRST choice was God's - as NO one could believe without Him FIRST drawing them, providing Jesus' sacrifice, AND allowing them the choice to choose or reject. And God's drawing and wooing will be eff...

Re: Caught In Hail Storm

Ok, let's look at the text: Genesis 2:2-3 Nasb 2By the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created [a...

I always have heard this, not as double tooth picks, but as "double hockey sticks".

Either way, it works.

Re: Caught In Hail Storm

Doesn't anyone understand irony anymore? y#-o It is understood, but can't always be deciphered from one that spews constant sarcasm and thoughtless posts as you say you do. . . Again, that was irony! Serious question: Do you have Asperger's? Again...if you weren't so sarcastic, you probably wouldn'...
