1 | Grace AND? | Matt 6:20 | Rowdy | 120381 | ||
I think I can say Amen to everything you've said here. I'd just like to reiterate verse 6 is a very, very important part of this whole concept Jn 15:6 "If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned. Hopefully, this should motivate all those who truly are seeking after the Lord, like a live plant seeking after sunlight. IF that portion (person) of the vine is NOT seeking after God's light, then he/she is cut off (at Judgment Day) and cast into the fire. This is very plain and clear? Is it not? God bless. --Rowdy |

Rowdy, I disagree with you here. Verse 4 is the imperative to Abide - we have a choice to abide in Christ or not. See John 6:56 - This is a reference to one's SALVATION. Only those that are IN THE VINE (those who are SAVED) CAN become fruitbearers, those that do not choose SALVATION IN CHRIST are NOT IN THE VINE. Once we are IN THE VINE, we also have a choice to let His fruitproducing life flow through us or not. The message that you are preaching is akin to placing a millstone around a neck - I am saved by GRACE and there is nothing that I can do or not do to be rejected at the judgment seat of Christ. HE has PAID my penalty for sin. I am JUSTIFIED by HIS finished work. Rowdy, let's agree to disagree on this. I'm sorry you are so worried about not measuring up on Judgement Day . . . Judgement Day is NOT for the believer. (1 John 4:15-18) blessings, mommapbs |

Momma, Judgement day is NOT for the believer? Rom 14:10 10 But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you regard your brother with contempt? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God. NAS AO |
