1	Belief alone saves?	John 3:16	inhisname	80166
	You do not answer my question. It is a good question. When are you saved? With or without obedience? I don't think you want to answer. If you say with obedience then you are at least consistent. But if you say it is by faith alone/only, and then start talking about all you have to do to stay saved, then you are inconsistent. That's my only point and you don't answer it. Maybe we should not talk any more. blessings
2	Belief alone saves?	John 3:16	inhisname	80165
	I'm not embarrassed as I accurately depict Calvin, but you seem to compromise him. Let me say it again, because you seem to want to ignore my point. Did I say I am not different? No. I am different and it is proof of the work of God. If you continue to ignore my Biblical point of view then you are without excuse. Who works? You or God. What does the Sovereignty of God mean? It is lipservice to say otherwise. From my vantage point, you want to work and therefore get some of the glory for it. I take no credit. Your name calling is a sign of your frustration. You are in an impossible position to defend. blessings
3	Belief alone saves?	John 3:16	inhisname	80153
	"...old flesh to refrain them from doing good..." Do you believe I can lose my salvation? The Bible says no. "Satan is a deadly enemy of both." No Calvinist can believe this. This makes no sense unless we no longer accept the Sovereignty of God. God elects and Satan can do NOTHING to alter it. Right? Whoever writes this cannot believe Calvin's tenets and the inevitibility of the Sovereign's will. My opinion is that you are not consistent. Last word. Blessings.
4	Belief alone saves?	John 3:16	inhisname	80087
	Yes, This is what I've been talking about. The thief did not work. He was saved by faith alone/only. Just as Luther and Calvin taught. Calvinists must not turn and ask people to work.
5	Robots?	Gen 4:7	inhisname	79983
	Sniper says this and it is same as what you say. "We all agree on where the saving power is. However, God does require obedience to his word, commands, gospel. This appears to be where the disagreement really is." - Sniper So how are you consistent? Calvinist must stick together.
6	Are all sins equal and delt with the sam	Matt 5:28	inhisname	79980
	I'm sorry but do you believe you must pray to be saved? I'm glad you know Jesus but salvation does not takes works. It is 'faith alone and only.' Four years old is pretty young.
7	Robots?	Gen 4:7	inhisname	79979
	"salvation is by faith alone." Everyone says this, everyone in the big spectrum. Sniper put something from Calvin on baptism but he believes salvation is by faith. I've seen some of snipers post. He says the same thing. You cannot say this because this is not different than what sniper says. How is your faith different than his faith? Mine is best I can tell the one that is faith only to the end. I'm consistent and you might not be.
8	What exactly must a person to be saved?	Bible general Archive 1	inhisname	79978
	There are too many other verses that teach God, first to last, does it all. So those verses must be interpreted in the light of them. You see?
9	What exactly must a person to be saved?	Bible general Archive 1	inhisname	79977
	This place you take is most Calvinist problem. I'm consistent. I don't deny I'm different because God does it all. I explained Ephesians 2:8,9, It looks like work but its not because God does it all. You betray Calvin by changing the message after salvation and make people work. I'm consistent. The robot does what it is told but it has no choice. The operator of the robot is doing everything.
10	Robots?	Gen 4:7	inhisname	79879
	This is why I have hope you are on my side. Sniper says this, "It must be very pleasing for God to have created a people that will worship him when he makes them." And you respond, It pleases Him infinitely to redeem for Himself a people for His own possession from the mass of sinful humanity that has rebelled against His authority and holiness. Right, it's not about us wanting to it's just that we do. That pleases God. I admit we have not choices because I admit we are what we are. If we are redeemed we don't choose because God already chose. We are on the same page. We are just saying it different.
11	Robots?	Gen 4:7	inhisname	79878
	Maybe sniper is talking about a willing slave. But there are no willing slaves of Christ. They are robots.
12	What exactly must a person to be saved?	Bible general Archive 1	inhisname	79877
	You are working too hard. Let the Spirit work. It's not about your power to persuade, it is God's power. You should show some faith.
13	Could cain do well?	Gen 4:7	inhisname	79876
	Restricted speaking here. We must not converse on this subject.
14	Are all sins equal and delt with the sam	Matt 5:28	inhisname	79875
	"We need to..." This does not compute with salvation by grace alone. Salvation is not by works. When is the exact moment you are saved? Will you tell me your story?
15	Could cain do well?	Gen 4:7	inhisname	79874

16	Could cain do well?	Gen 4:7	inhisname	79836
	When he says, "Hence those who have thought that baptism is nothing else than the badge and mark by which we profess our religion before men, in the same way as soldiers attest their profession by bearing the insignia of their commander, have not attended to what was the principal thing in baptism; and this is, that we are to receive it in connection with the promise, "He that believeth and is baptised shall be saved.' (Mark 16: 16.)" Without baptism he is not saved? Calvin didn't think Holy Spirit baptism was an outward sign of earlier salvation? Or he didn't think water baptism was an outward "insignia" of earlier salvation? Surely he was wrong. I think all of those verses are talking about Holy Spirit baptism. Water is not mentioned. That must be the answer. Peter commanded Holy Spirit baptism in Acts 2:38 and the other verse. I'll study more.
17	What exactly must a person to be saved?	Bible general Archive 1	inhisname	79834
	"You have not taken a single one of them and explained how the passages telling Christians to obey aren't REALLY telling Christians to obey." They can't because telling is like commanding. Commanding is like having to. Having to makes a bad outcome if you don't do what you are told. Then it just comes around to me and works and not God. God's doing it. Every act I do is credited to God. It is to His credit and glory. Others see the Christian in action and glorify not the man but God the doer. Wait, I'm reading the last part...are you saying that faith and works are equal. That's been disproven, I'm sure. You agree with Romans and then you say just the opposite. I always say the same thing and I don't change. If works are EVIDENCE then you must think there is no honor to God when someone says they are saved without EVIDENCE, but faith alone. I think we are saying the same thing but in a different way. The first question: what must a person do to be saved? Answer: Faith alone; God's gift is Faith; My part is nothing. God gets all the glory.

	I did not mean to say you were a fool. I'm not sinless, I just don't practice it because I can't. I've got a new heart. Do you practice sin? If so, then you may not have a new heart. Do you know what changes the heart of man? A miraculous and supernatural intervention by the Holy Spirit. It is changed. Since salvation is comes even before a single thought of goodness, then how are works now necessary? You don't believe like some that it starts with faith and ends with works? I'm sorry for sounding offensive to you.
20	What exactly must a person to be saved?	Bible general Archive 1	inhisname	79831
	"God...made us alive" "raised us up with Him" "seated us with Him" God "brought near by the blood of Christ." In the Calvinistic way, I understand that God made me alive, raised me up, seated me, brought me near. Am I closer to Him? Yes. Did I do it that I should boast? No. So it looks to man like works, but isn't. Thank you for asking about my wrists. They do hurt a little bit but its more to do with the position of the mouse.
