24 | How do these points relate to the Great | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57520 | ||
"'James could not be more explicit. He is confronting the concept of a passive, false "faith," which is devoid of the fruits of salvation. He is not arguing for works in addition to or apart from faith. He is showing why and how, true, living faith always works. He is fighting against dead orthodoxy and its tendency to abuse grace." "'Again, James echoes the Master Himself, who insisted on a theology of lordship that involved obedience, not lip-service. Jesus chided the disobedient ones who had attached themselves to Him in name only: "Why do you call Me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?" (Luke 6:46). Verbal allegiance, He said, will get no one to heaven: "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 7:21)." How do these points relate to the Great commission in Mark 16:15-17? By the way these are good points. |

25 | 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? |

27 | So when does justification come? | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57507 | ||
So when does justification come? Is it when we are standing still and believe? Is it when we act on what we believe? "Then we're perfected by works: James 2:22 "Seest thou how by faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?" " Or is it in the above scripture? |
||||||
28 | So is this what Eph 2:8-9 is saying to u | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57505 | ||
So is this what Eph 2:8-9 is saying to us, that it must be obedient faith though Jesus Christ? And not faith all by itself, alone. |
||||||
29 | Eph 2:9 saids the same thing. | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57504 | ||
This is my point too. We have two apostles saying two different things about faith, and we know they are both inspired, so our interpretation of what faith is must agree with their. 2Peter 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. Heb 11 is known as the hall of faith, and all of the people in it are said to have done something by faith, but the book of Romans saids we are not justified by any works, and the book of Eph 2:9 saids the same thing. So my question is how can we understand this in light of what all the passages are saying in James, Romans, Hebrews and Ephesians. We know they were lead by the Holy Spirit and God is not the author of confusion 1 Cor 14:33. |

32 | So is the book of Romans 4 a contraditio | Gen 12:1 | The Bible is Right | 57482 | ||
Is there a such thing as "obedient faith"? I ask that, because in the book of Heb 11 that's all you see, that by faith so-and-so did this or that. And Romans 4:1-5 says " not to him that worketh" And James saids, 2:17 Even so faith, if hath not works, is dead, being alone. vs.20-26 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altat? Gen 22:1-18 vs.18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice. That's "obedient faith" that James is talking about. Jame 2:22 Seest thou how by faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? 23 And 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. Obedient faith is what justified Abraham. vs. 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? Hebrews 11 gives us all the people of faith, and what they did, and not one person was with faith alone. So is the book of Romans 4 a contradition to Hebrew and James? |

37 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 57140 | ||
It is evident you do not believe that baptism is for the remission of sins. This is my last post on this subject. I also noticed that the majority of the forum believe the same as you do on this subject. I will make this last statement: (no responce please) Matt 7:13-14 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. When we look at the thread on baptism which gate did You enter? |

39 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 57029 | ||
Then Jesus gave the Great Commission for nothing. Matt 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, (baptizing) the in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Mark 16:15,16 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. The Savoiur of the World spoke these word in vain if we take the attitude the baptism is not for salvation, baptism is what he commanded the apostle to teach and preach in the gospel when he gave the Great Commission. |

"Wasn't the Law also from God? By your reasoning, since the Law was from God, then obedience to it should have been necessary for salvation" Yes the Law was from God, But He replace the Law of Moses with the Law of Christ. The Law of Christ is for Salvation. Yes, Christ has a Law Gal.6:2. Heb.7:22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. Heb.8:6-13 vs.6"a better covenant,which was established upon better promises. vs.7 For if that first covenant had been faultess, then should no place have been sought for the second. vs.8 For finding fault with them, he saith, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will Make a New Covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: vs.13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away. "Nothing in this passage supports the view that baptism is necessary for salvation." This baptism that John preached was "for the remission of sins" Just like the one Peter preached. Is remission of sins Salvation? Both were commanded By God. Mark 1:4, Acts 2:38. " 1) Your challenge then is to present a single Bible verse which commands a person to be baptized within a certain time frame! Notice that I said 'commands', not simply records a baptism taking place quickly. If you can do that, then I will agree with you that a person must be baptized immediately after conversion." Acts 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. These are commands, but I know you will try to change them into something else, but you cannot deny that both of these are commands. If Baptism was not apart of salvation why would Paul ask this question in Acts 19:3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were you baptized? Sense salvation is in the name of Jesus Christ Acts 4:12 Neihter is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Baptism is not mentioned in this text, but the name of Jesus is, and the power in the name, which means "by the authority of Jesus Christ" And when you said that baptism is not for salvation, you are saying that the name of Jesus Christ has no authority. Matt 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All Power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 God ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. This to is a command from the "Master" Jesus Christ himself. Question: If Baptism is in the name of Jesus, and if one get's baptized in the name of Jesus doesn't that equal salvation? Acts 4:12 Your answer to the above question should set the record straight. If the bible is right, and it is, you shouldn't question the word of God about baptism, just except it, God said it's for the remission of sins, in the name of Jesus Christ. |
