Sir how can you reconcile the word "Sin unto death" from the word of God, isn't it that we believers are saved thru faith on the Lord Jesus Christ? and he saved us unconditionally? Will that fall on the works based Salvation? I mean I agree that a Christian so be found faithful, we can deny the fact that there Christians out there that are used to be faithful, examples are: DEMAS so is Demas not then saved?, Solomon worshipped Molech and other Gods and he died a backslider can you say that Solomon is not in heaven? Please do enlighten me with regards to those examples. Because I can clearly see in your stand that We are saved if we keep on being faithful but if we stop being faithful and choose to live a carnal life then we are not save.
"works of obedience aren't really works" what on earth do you think the Law was??? It was a Law of OBEDIENCE and it was done away with because it couldn't be kept PERFECTLY which is what was and is necessary to come into the presence of a Holy God. So now you want to put people under a NT Law of OBEDIENCE that also can't be kept perfectly and yet you think that your works can get you into heaven. Y'all say that baptism or works don't contribute to your salvation and then you turn around and say that without them you can't be saved. That makes great sense!!! NONSENSE
Gal 3:26 For YE ARE ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. Gal 3:27 For as many of you as have been BAPTIZED (ooppps KJV left off water) INTO CHRIST have put on Christ. 1Co 12:13 For by ONE SPIRIT ARE WE ALL BAPTIZED into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. You just can't trust the KJV apparently but it got the following verses correct. Joh 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and baptism. Joh 2:9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the baptism that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the baptism knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, Mat 14:25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the baptism.
@@dwbid42 Pet 3:21 "There is also an antitype which now saves us; baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ," It doesn't get any clearer than this. Baptism is one of several things mentioned in the Bible as being involved in "saving" you. Others include belief, repentance, grace, and works of God. To clarify characteristics of baptism Peter mentioned that baptism didn't just wash filth from thebody. Why do you suppose he said that? Do you think it was because people would think when they were baptized with the Holy Spirit filth would be washed from their body, or because when they were immersed with water in the baptism Jesus' disciples baptized with (such as Peter and Philip) that they would think the water was washing filth from the body? I said that to clarify that Peter is speaking of water baptism here. Not "Holy Spirit baptism" as some claim. Finally Ananias said Acts 22:16 'And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.' Saul did just that. He was baptized. His sins were washed away. Would it not then be safe to say that when his sins were washed away he was saved? Isn't that a definition of saved? Having no sins between you and God? Make a note then that although many claim Saul was "saved on the road to Damascus", he actually wasn't saved until he was baptized and had his sins washed away.

I would add to the comment about the tattoo to be careful where you have the tattoo placed. I've seen part of a tattoo that my daughter has that has to be just above her left nipple. She was sinfully wearing a very low-cut blouse and the top of the tattoo caught my eye. I told her that the only way she could've gotten that was by exposing her breast to that man who gave her the tattoo. If I remember correctly, she also has one just at the top of her gluteal cleft, which is another place that a strange man should not have access to.
"The idea that James is talking about faith before men doesn't make sense in the context" (while he's reading from Matthew 25) - You get the context from JAMES. Jas 2:18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: SHEW ME THY FAITH WITHOUT THY WORKS, AND I WILL SHEW THEE MY FAITH BY MY WORKS. Our works do not justify us before God as he sees our hearts which is the place that good and evil come from. Luk 16:15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but GOD KNOWETH YOUR HEARTS: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Mat 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Jas 2:18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Mat 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD WORKS, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Jas 2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works*, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? So are you saying in verse 21 that James is saying that Abraham was justified before God by his works???? He can't possibly be saying that or James and Paul are undeniably directly contradicting (by 180°) each other. Abraham was justified before men by his works and there are millions and millions that have seen his works through scripture. Rom 4:2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; BUT NOT BEFORE GOD. Jas 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. Jas 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. It wasn't the fact that Abraham did something that made him declared righteous it was the fact that he BELIEVED which enabled him to do what he did. Y'all when talking about Abraham constantly talk about his works. The Bible MENTIONS all the WORKS he did but here's what the Bible says about Abraham: Gen 15:6 And he BELIEVED in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. Rom 4:2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but NOT BEFORE GOD. Rom 4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Rom 4:9 Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that FAITH was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. Rom 4:12 And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that FAITH of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised. Rom 4:13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF FAITH. Rom 4:16 Therefore it is of FAITH, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the FAITH OF ABRAHAM; who is the father of us all, Rom 4:19 And being not weak in FAITH, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb: Rom 4:20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in FAITH, giving glory to God; Rom 4:21 And BEING FULLY PERSUADED that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. Rom 4:22 And therefore IT WAS IMPUTED TO HIM FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS. Gal 3:6 Even as Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. Gal 3:7 Know ye therefore that they which are of FAITH, the same are the children of Abraham. Gal 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY THE HEATHEN THROUGH FAITH, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. Heb 11:17 By FAITH Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, Heb 11:18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: Heb 11:19 ACCOUNTING THAT GOD WAS ABLE TO RAISE HIM UP, EVEN FROM THE DEAD; from whence also he received him in a figure. Jas 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS IMPUTED UNTO HIM FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS: and he was called the Friend of God. Y'all are so fixated on WORKS that you are blind to what the Bible says.
