1 | Obedience and ones salvation. | Matt 6:33 | Hank | 163384 | ||
Dear brother lionhart, if, as we agree that Scripture teaches, obedience is the effect of salvation, not its cause; and that therefore obedience is tantamount to good works; and if, as Scripture teaches, we are saved by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, then obedience is not and cannot be a factor in salvation. If it were, we would have a soteriology of grace through faith plus works, a doctrine that Scripture does not support. ..... I may not have answered your question fully and clearly -- and don't presume that I can! -- but it is hoped that my response at least is going in the same general direction as your question :-) --Hank | ||||||
2 | Obedience and ones salvation. | Matt 6:33 | lionheart | 163404 | ||
Yes in a matter of speaking you are headed my way.In James chapter two James clearly addresses the issue of faith and works.No we are not saved by our works,impossible,but might we not say that what we do is evidence of what we have and for that matter on the other hand dont have? You did quite well, lionheart |
