A short catechism

[Arch Stanton]

Too bad for you. Perhaps when you wake up dead someday...you'll find out.

As for me, I know I'm saved. I pretty much pitty your never knowing to the end belief.

but you haven't finished running the race [St. Paul]

 

[donadams]

but you haven't finished running the race [St. Paul]

He thinks Jesus did it all for him!

If you tell people they are saved, and there is nothing more to do, don’t be surprised when they don’t do anything more!

Antithesis of the gospel

Matthew 7:14
Because strait is the gate, and narrowis the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

[CrowCross]

Then you reject the inspired word of God, (scripture) and the eternal words of Jesus???

Then trust in your list.

 

[CrowCross]

but you haven't finished running the race [St. Paul]

Of course not....but that doesn't mean you're not saved until you're done.

 

[CrowCross]

He thinks Jesus did it all for him!

So, you lived the perfect life?
You fulfilled the law?
You died on the cross?
You're blood removes your sin?

If you tell people they are saved, and there is nothing more to do, don’t be surprised when they don’t do anything more!

Here's the big difference....
You work to save your own butt. I work because my butt is already saved.

 

[Arch Stanton]

Of course not....but that doesn't mean you're not saved until you're done.

and yet --

How does one receive salvation, justification, new birth and eternal life?
by believing
by repentance
by baptism
by declaring with our mouth
by the works of the Spirit
by coming to the knowledge
by works
by grace
by His blood
by His righteousness
by His cross

 

[donadams]

Then trust in your list.

My list for a scripture

 

[donadams]

So, you lived the perfect life?
You fulfilled the law?
You died on the cross?
You're blood removes your sin?


Here's the big difference....
You work to save your own butt. I work because my butt is already saved.

Only one is biblical

All Christians are to be of one mind, one heart, one spirit:

Acts 2:46
Romans 12:16
Romans 15:6
2 cor 13:11
Eph 4:1
Phil 1:27
Phil 2:2
1 Peter 3:8


Philippians 1:27
Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

Not according to Christ or scripture
Mk 13:13 Matt 24:13

And not it’s not correct: “you work to save your own butt”

We are saved by Christ and grace!
Amen!

Let me say it again to you...perhaps you didn't hear what I said....
You work to save your own butt. I work because my butt is already saved. Do you have a problem with that?

 

[CrowCross]

All Christians are to be of one mind, one heart, one spirit:

Acts 2:46
Romans 12:16
Romans 15:6
2 cor 13:11

So, unless I agree with your works based theology I'm not...one mind, one heart, one spirit???? I have to drop my works are a by-product of salvation not a reason for it theology?

 

[donadams]

How do you know you are already saved?

We don’t believe natural works can save btw!

Seems to me that if really believed scripture we would be of one mine and heart

 

[donadams]

Is baptism required

 

[CrowCross]

How do you know you are already saved?

I trust the Bible. Why don't you trust the Bible?

 

[CrowCross]

Your gospel is false. That's why we don't have the one mind and heart.

 

[donadams]

I trust the Bible. Why don't you trust the Bible?

Verses please

Really?

I don’t consider you an enemy btw

How can you possibly explain Matt 25 in light of “faith alone”?

Pray tell

Thks

 

[CrowCross]

Verses please

I believe John 3:16. Why don't you?
