Bible Note: Dear Discilerami, Our views are so far apart that it is not humanly possible for us to reach agreement on the issue. I believe salvation is of the Lord from start to finish. I was drawn by the Father, raised to spiritual life by the Son, and through the power of the Holy Spirit became a new creature in Christ. And this salvation was not due to my will or any good thing in me, but by the grace of God alone. You believe that Jesus is your Saviour as well, but that He has only made salvation possible. The rest is up to man. Requirements for salvation: 1. Sorrow for sin and a desire to turn from it. 2. Faith to trust in Christ as saviour and lord. 3. Do a good work; be baptised (by complete immersion only.) 4. Continue your life as a holy and faithfull christian. Given the time, I sure that additional rules would come to mind. The New Covenant is not about what we do. It is about what He has done and what He will contiue to do in and through us. Correct me if I'm mistaken in my conclusion. John |
