Subject: Do our works keep us saved? |
Bible Note: WTB, "Faith keeps us saved"? Where does scripture tell us this? However, by your statement, you seem to negate the sufficiency of Christ's atoning sacrifice. He either saves us to the uttermost, or He doesn't.(Heb. 7:25) I know that I'm saved because of the all-sufficient work of Christ on the cross, and by the fact that I've placed my faith in Him. Further, scripture tells us plainly so in 1 John 5. My friend, the doctrine of Eternal Security that you're vilifying is not one of cavalier or flippant faith ( as I mentioned before). I'm not saved to see what I can get away with. That's foolish, of course. But I am His workmanship, created unto good works that I should walk in them. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
