    This is true of your “church”.

      First, is not my church. Jesus is the owner of the church. Second, what are you saying is true of the church you read about in Scripture? If you are going to make an accusation at least be specific.

      @@LGministry it’s not an accusation, it was merely a statement. The church of Christ does not see the plank in their eye.

      @@LGministry also lol this is not Yaweh’s church. COC is satanism. You teach works based salvation, which negates the crucifixion. Yawn. Ive explained this to you before. You’re legalist workers of iniquity. The only way to be saved is through faith ALONE.

      You might want to look up what an accusation is because apparently you don't understand what that word means because claiming the church of Christ (Rom. 16:16) that you read about in Scripture can't see the plank in its eye is certainly an accusation.

      To call the church of Christ Satanism is to call the Lord's body Satanism. I teach what the Bible teaches. You just seemed to be confused. I don't know of any fellow gospel preacher or Christians that is part of the body of Christ that He purchased with His blood that teaches that one can do works that will merit or make God owe them salvation. I think you have been listening to people outside the church that don't have clue what they are talking about. You are also probably confused on the kind of works that Bible teaches. The works of the law of Moses nor the works merit will never put us in position of earning our salvation. However, the Bible does teach that we must have works of obedience to accept the saving grace of God, but that is no way makes us earn it. Let me give you a few verses to think about.
      Hebrews 5:8 though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered. 9 And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him,
      Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me,`Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
      James 1:21 Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
      Notice, Jesus is the author of salvation these who OBEY. ONLY those who DO THE WILL of the Father will enter the kingdom of God. Jesus explains it best in:
      Luke 17:7 "And which of you, having a servant plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field,`Come at once and sit down to eat '? 8 "But will he not rather say to him,`Prepare something for my supper, and gird yourself and serve me till I have eaten and drunk, and afterward you will eat and drink '? 9 "Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not. 10 "So likewise you, when you have done all those things which you are commanded, say,`We are unprofitable servants. We have done what was our duty to do.'"
      So, you see, we are to have works of obedience, which includes being faithful until death (Rev. 2:10), but the works we do is because we love God and we want to honor Him. I nor anyone I know teaches that you can work your into heaven, but we do teach that if you don't remain faithful to God, then you are basically saying, I don't want you gift of grace and God will honor your wishes. If you love God you will obey His commands (Jn. 14:15; 1 John 5:3). Obeying His commands is simply doing our duty as unprofitable servants. We don't deserve heaven, but thanks be to God that He allows us to be His servants, friends, and children so that we can be with Him in heaven forever. Hopefully, you can begin to see that the we the belong to the Lord, don't teach what you think we teach.
