It's so great to have you posting again. I'm so happy.

That's certainly when Paul got saved, but I'm wondering when, exactly, he received the revelation about being saved by grace through faith without works.

Yep, I especially like this one. 1 Peter 2:12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.

My faith is in Him....not my own ability to stay faithful. 2 Timothy 1:12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day. 2 Timothy...

I don't know why it would no longer work....for those it was meant for. He was preaching the gospel of the kingdom to the Jews. Faith and works is what he preached. At what point exactly did God not allow faith and works for salvation? We see it again during the Tribulation. It's only...

John 11:14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead. The body is dead until it's raised (either by a miracle or at the resurrection.) That is speaking of Christ's resurrection...without that all would perish.

Aaron was simply a priest, doing what he was told. He was not a prophet and wrote no books of the Bible. I see nothing that shows he was saved or is anything like the Apostle Paul. I will say this. God can use ungodly men for His own purposes.

I'm thinking in Acts 15....the Jerusalem counsel, I guess, they decided the Gentiles didn't have to be circumcised. That seems to have been a big step for them at the time. I think the first step for the Jews was to recognized Jesus as the Messiah (which was the gospel of the kingdom) , and...

This is actually quite something to behold. You scold for our not preaching the Gospel, yet you complain about the thread on "two gospels". The reason we have that thread is because people like you don't even know what the Gospel is. And the complaint about the "millennial" reign and the...

He supports his position just fine. You, on the other hand, have no position to support. You just toss up ideas and hope they stick.

When you refuse to see there are different dispensations, you make big mistakes....like with your statement here below. Wrong. Faith and works were required for salvation before Christ's resurrection, just as faith and works will be required again after the rapture of the church.

To even suggest that one who was sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise, who is God's workmanship could ever be lost, is just plain wrong. It's the same as claiming we keep ourselves.

Peter was preaching the gospel of the kingdom from beginning to end, as I read it. Do you see him preaching anything about being a member of the body of Christ? Seems he was looking forward to the day his sins would be blotted out. Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your...

Which goes back to man being responsible for his own salvation....the keeping of it. Is that what you really believe? Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

So you think telling people to repent, keep the commandments, and overcome is giving assurance of their salvation?

Some people hate that, don't they?

No, he that overcometh is not the church of God. My point was that we are complete in Christ, and He has overcome the world for us. The churches in Revelation are tribulation churches and they must do works ....obedience to commandments and repenting in order to overcome. Enduring to the end...

That's hardly the case here. The scripture says the great tribulation would be shortened for the elect's sake. Nothing to do with their being saved by that shortening. There will be incredible suffering coming upon those who are left after the rapture. The "elect" John is talking about are...

I believe we're simply His body. If you can call that "simply".

Made you laugh, didn't it?
