1 | What about James 2:22-23 where he saids | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57513 | ||
What about James 2:22-23 where he saids faith was made perfect? Then he saids the scripture was "fulfilled" which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the friend of God. So if one has faith he must prove that it is real by doing what God tells him to do. Heb. 11:1-40 which person in this chapter only believed and it was counted or imputed for righteousness? I think this is what James had in mind, and Paul was speaking about the Law of Moses and man's own righteousness apart from God. Or else do we have a great contradiction between Paul and James? |

2 | What about James 2:22-23 where he saids | Gen 12:1 | kalos | 57521 | ||
AMPLIFIED John 1:12 But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name--[Isa. 56:5.] AMPLIFIED John 3:16 For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life. AMPLIFIED John 5:24 I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, the person whose ears are open to My words [who listens to My message] and believes and trusts in and clings to and relies on Him Who sent Me has (possesses now) eternal life. And he does not come into judgment [does not incur sentence of judgment, will not come under condemnation], but he has already passed over out of death into life. AMPLIFIED Acts 16:31 And they answered, Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ [give yourself up to Him, take yourself out of your own keeping and entrust yourself into His keeping] and you will be saved, [and this applies both to] you and your household as well. "Salvation is conditioned solely on faith in Jesus Christ. Nearly 200 times faith, or belief, is stated as the single condition in the N.T. (John 1:12; Acts 16:31). That faith must be placed in Christ as one's substitute for and Saviour from sin" (p. 1950, Ryrie Study Bible, Moody Press, 1978). |

3 | what I want to know is it mental consent | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57528 | ||
I believe all of what is said in these verses, what I want to know is it mental consent alone? because the devils believe in Jesus Christ. | ||||||
4 | what I want to know is it mental consent | Gen 12:1 | kalos | 57530 | ||
Do the following quotes from the Amplified Bible sound like faith or belief is mental consent alone? The devils do NOT "adhere to, trust in, rely on, cling to" or give themselves up to Him, take themselves out of their own keeping and entrust themselves into His keeping. AMPLIFIED John 1:12 ...believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name--[Isa. 56:5.] AMPLIFIED John 3:16 ...whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him... AMPLIFIED John 5:24 ...believes and trusts in and clings to and relies on Him Who sent Me... AMPLIFIED Acts 16:31 ...Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ [give yourself up to Him, take yourself out of your own keeping and entrust yourself into His keeping]... |

5 | What was the jailers response to what he | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57623 | ||
"AMPLIFIED Acts 16:31 ...Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ [give yourself up to Him, take yourself out of your own keeping and entrust yourself into His keeping]..." What was the jailers response to what he was told in the above verse? |
||||||
6 | What was the jailers response to what he | Gen 12:1 | kalos | 57626 | ||
"What was the jailers response to what he was told in the above verse?" Doctrine is established primarily by the Apostle's answer to the question in Acts 16:30, not by what the jailer did in response, which was to do as he was told: believe and be saved. Notice that Paul did not say "Believe and be baptized." What he did say was: "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved." You can never take scripture at face value, can you? You ask a question. Someone answers with a clear verse of scripture. Then you have questions about what the verse means. We know what the Bible means by what it says. "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved." What part of this do you not understand? |

7 | What was the jailers response to what he | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57634 | ||
The jailer did not know who Jesus Christ was, so how could he believe what Paul had told him with just that statement in verse 31? This is why when you read the rest of the story we learn more of what happen, and what persuaded the jailer to believe, in verse 32-33. And this is what you away deny, and you will never post the whole truth about this story. Why? | ||||||
8 | What was the jailers response to what he | Gen 12:1 | srbaegon | 57643 | ||
Hello The Bible Is Right It's true that verse 32 tells us when the full explanation of salvation came to the jailer and his household, but that does not take away from the fact that believing on the Lord Jesus Christ is all that is necessary for salvation. Steve |

Steve: Excellent point! The notion that in verse 32 (of Acts 16) Paul contradicts what he had just said in verse 31 is more than absurd, outrageous and ludicrous. It is moronic. Grace to you, kalos |
