ECT The Mystery: What and Why

[heir]

Oy vey- Did I, or did I not, thank you as to your last post on that prior to this one :chuckle:

Thanking a post does not necessarily mean you agree with it.

Is the power of God any of the above?

And as asked before:

What difference does it make? After you tell somone the good news, do you tell them they need to do any of these things for salvation?

Is this what you tell people after telling them that salvation is a gift, Danoh? Will you call the above, what it is: a perverted gospel of Christ?

Will you call the above, what it is: a perverted gospel of Christ?

 

[Danoh]

Is it any of those?

No, precious one.

All it takes is believe that Christ died for your sins, and rose again for your justification.

I don't even have a person recite a sinner's prayer.

No work - none.

Believe.

Period.

 

[heir]

No, precious one.

Of course it isn't any of those things. So call it like it is. Those things that someone is being told to do are perversions of the gospel of Christ! That's why I don't understand why it is so hard for some to call it what it is! An unequivocal answer on the matter should have been some time ago from you. Why the hesitation not to call it like it is? After all:

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

In what sense is the preaching of the cross the power of God unto salvation?

This is a question all must ask.

For clarity on this issue when preaching the cross is critical to preaching the cross soundly.

Absent of said clarity; the preaching of the cross is rendered of none effect.

Even if they are a dope selling pimp?

No matter who they are or what they were doing while they were there, they can be saved by trusting the Lord believing 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV!

What do you mean by were?

 

[heir]

What do you mean by were?

No matter are or were, all can be saved by trusting the Lord believing 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV! Are you saved?

 

[1Mind1Spirit]

No matter are or were, all can be saved by trusting the Lord believing 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV!

That doesn't answer my question.

Are you saved?

Can one be receiving their salvation and not be?

 

[heir]

That doesn't answer my question.

Yes, it does!

Can one be receiving their salvation and not be?

Receiving the love of the truth is by faith in the event that took place in our stead. Have you?

I was testing Danoh. I agree with both of you.

 

[1Mind1Spirit]

Yes, it does!

Nope.

You said were.

Receiving the love of the truth is by faith in the event that took place in our stead. Have you?

Have I what?

 

[Danoh]

I was testing Danoh. I agree with both of you.

I never have been in favor of such tactics - ask DP :chuckle:

 

[ClimateSanity]

DP? Danica Patrick?

 

[Danoh]

Nope.

You said were.




Have I what?

Sheesh.

Have you received the love of the truth, in other words...by faith...in the event that took place in your stead, or do you believe there is something you can do either to merit salvation, or to keep said salvation...

I can go slower if you need that :chuckle:

 

[heir]

Nope.

You said were.

And clarified with an are or were!

Have I what?

Have you received the love of the truth by faith?

 

[heir]

I was testing Danoh. I agree with both of you.

I know.

I'll use any and every opportunity to testify the gospel of the grace of God!

 

[ClimateSanity]

Sheesh.

I already graduated kindergarten.:thumb:

Now I'm .........

1 Peter 1:9
Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

 

[Danoh]

I know.

I'll use any and every opportunity to testify the gospel of the grace of God!

Show off

Nah; back then my choice were the real man's poison - either Bacardi straight, or Tequila.

Whoa - just got a massive hangover flashback :chuckle:
