I have three scripture verses which say differently:
Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee. (1 Timothy 4:16 KJV)
Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins. (James 5:20 KJV)
And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. (Jude 1:23 KJV)
Do you really believe you have the power to save another lost soul? That would make you into God himself.
The first says point blank that the doctrine of Christ is what saves. The second was from James who never fully parted company with the law and the last is admonition built on vs. 21 which says to keep yourself in the love of God.
