Bible Question:
Greetings Merv! You wrote: " Yes, but righteous is given based on forgiveness, repentance, faith in God and finally proof of faith which is obedeience." Where exactly does Scripture say that 'righteousness' is given based upon 'proof of faith'? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
Bible Answer: Tim: James 2:18-24 Rom. 9:31-32 So question is just cause we have faith does it mean we do not follow the law - God forbid. Oviously, faith is shown by our obedience. But many "churches" want to call this legalism. But clearly this watering down the gospel. Just because our judgement is delayed till the time of Christ's return - we should take note how strongly God has dealt with disobedience in the OT. Pretty clear that is we are claiming to be saved and do not really want to know what God's law requires then we are watering down our salvation. We know what goes does to the lukewarm. In love, Merv |
