    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    You might want to post titles that way, because, of course, I agree. :Z

    It was given by Moses and Paul. Does it stop a bullet? No, but God does. I simply believe God. It doesn't mean if someone dies young, they were disobedient, it simply means as a rule, God makes a promise of long life to those who honor their parents. Simple enough without discounting...

    Why Homosexuality MUST Be Recriminalized! Part 6

    There is no such thing as cheap Grace. It always bothers me when someone says that it didn't cost Jesus everything. Does it mean, however, that you can 'earn it?' No. Don't try, ACW, or it is works salvation. We can do nothing to gain His grace. It is freely given. If by that you...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    Do you? I said 'obedience is a condition of salvation' as in, it comes with being in Christ.

    Did you happen to read his argument? It is the talking point, regardless of emotions involved, so I totally disagree that emotions nor demonizing are impoverished of content. Some people need to be yelled at for being not just wrong, but harmfully wrong. She, is talking to him (us/we who...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    Just as long as you agree. People in Christ are not under the Law, it is under them through Christ. By nature, you will naturally want to do whatever is in keeping with Christ. The Law is unnecessary. You can encourage, but if you try and tell someone they should 'quit swearing' it is...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    I agree with you, but is missing this salvific? I'm not sure. A mistake? Yeah, but for me, not that huge of a deal if they are open to correction. To me, it seems an 'in-body' discussion and correction. As far as I can tell, it doesn't interfere with someone trusting the Lord Jesus...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    You missed my post, Christ supersedes the law, thus the law is fulfilled incidentally in the life of a new believer. It is like breathing, if you are in Christ, He makes you like Himself. If not, question whether you are in Him or check that you are spending time with Him as your Lord and...

    Ephesians 6:2“Honor your father and mother” (which is the first commandment with a promise), 3“that it may go well with you and that you may have a long life on the earth.” 🤔

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    Which means "yes" that technically, it IS a condition of being a new creation. If you don't get that point implicitly, it is going to mess up your theology. ONLY new creations, created in Christ Jesus, are capable of doing what pleases Him. Romans 8:8 Those in the flesh CANNOT please Him...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    Sure. It is the idea that if you are His, you do His works naturally. And? Are you HIs? Do you belong to Him? If so, you cannot help doing what He wants any more than you can stop breathing. A new nature DOES new things. As simple as that. Question is, do you have Christ dwelling...

    Is Obedience a Condition of Salvation?

    "Yes, Obedience is a condition of salvation." What it means and what it doesn't mean: Similarly, 'you must be born again' is a condition, it is not a command. It MUST be met. MAD disagrees that 'born again' is the same as 'if any man is in Christ, he/she is a new creation' but the...

    Fiona Hill: "The president was trying to stage a coup"

    It was the media that is really to blame, but whatever involvement we had in gossip and stoking those fires (and you certainly are culpable, less me, but I'll take blame none-the-less as a citizen). I may not have the ability, but it doesn't matter, I didn't stop it, you didn't stop it...

    Fiona Hill: "The president was trying to stage a coup"

    I think you do. It is Pavlovian, media driven. There have been 3 attempts + to draw some legal accountability. All of them agreeing that such is inconclusive. There were many people there that have no previous criminal record. Most in fact. What we saw 'we' collectively are responsible...

    :nono: It'll have to be a leash at a minimum to make a direct connection. There are way too many loose problems with a whistle being indictable.
