Subject: What exactly must a person to be saved? |
Bible Note: Scripture? "Not of works that any should boast" You asked for Scripture and I gave it. I think we are very much alike. We both believe that a person cannot repent, do good, confess Christ, love, hope, sacrifice, etc so how do you not understand that I'm saying what you are saying. I'm not saying that Christians aren't different from sinners. Christians can't sin and they can't lose their salvation. This work of God is only possible with God's help all the way. He does it all. I answered your past post the way I did because I thought you were a believer in the Sovereign God. But now you say, "train your children to be servants of God." A true understanding of Scripture shows this is folly. God trains, God does, God moves. The unregenerate can't do anything spiritual, but the regenerate can do everything spiritual. Holy Spirit baptism brings instant salvation and knowledge through tongues and prophecy. The Bible is readable by the unregenerate but completely not understandable. But when given a new heart, the Holy Spirit did this, then reading brings understanding. Suddenly, miraculously, you start confessing and changing. blessings inhisname The truly born again can't DO sin. He therefore can only DO right. God is doing that! |
