1 | And what about those who will die before | NT general Archive 1 | Morant61 | 98244 | ||
Greetings Joe! Joe is much easier than Dachande! :-) I too have lost many posts. :-( The new rule I follow is, for any long posts I compose, use a word processor and save them! I appreciate the response, and I think you are mostly correct in your summary. If by works, one is referring to the things we do because we are saved, I would agree that those kinds of 'works' are expected of Christians. If by works, one is referring to things we do to get saved, I would disagree with that definition. One distinction that I would be careful to make though is that Christians do not 'lose' their salvation by failure to do 'works' anymore than they gain salvation by doing 'works'. I do believe that salvation can be rejected (see my many previous posts on this point), but I do not believe that salvation can be lost because of a failure to 'do' things on our part. Other than that, I would agree with your position as stated in your response. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Heh heh, why thank you Tim! I've been up all night and I believe I got my second wake when it clicked, I seemed to offend Hank by accident but I do have to remember when I talk to people to break down what I want to say... I'm in the military and used to being very blunt, so it occasionally gets in the way ;( I gotta get ready to leave, but I'd say you're an easy guy to talk to Tim Joe |

Joe, James 2:18 "But someone may well say, "You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works." (NASB) I don't believe because I work, I work because I believe. Read the book of Romans. Colin |
