Subject: Isn't believing Christ for salvation suf |
Bible Note: Jam 2:19 KJV Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. Is Jesus not God! Would you say that those spoken of in the verse quoted above have received salvation due to their belief? Anyone who adds to what I have already quoted is simply adding leaven to the bread. "Paraphrasing the word." Be leary of mans leaven, (or at the very least, pray for discernment,) for you do not always know his intent nor level of spirituality concerning the true word. What I have provided in this and my last post concerning this subject is bread in its purest form. I have added my leaven in hopes of clarification. Discernment and understanding on the part of the reader is one thing I can not add to my post. 2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Your answer, whether you like, accept or understand it lies herein. I don't know about you, but I personally don't care what anyone else "believes" concerning scripture. If they can't back it with scripture, it is only "opinion." My years have taught me that "opinion" is rarely worth the paper it is written on... George |
