- We are continuing our series on often misinterpreted verses. Many have hit us with this verse in the comment section. Let's explain it! Is Matthew 7:21-23 properly used by proponents of Calvinism and Arminianism to explain away OSAS, Free Grace and the idea of Easy-believism?

Lord have mercy on me a sinner. My faith is only in You for my salvation.
Praise the Lord! We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ!
- Trent
If you love me, keep my commandments...Jesus says.
The will of the Father is to believe in grace freely offered to us in Christ Jesus for our salvation. Thanks so much Pastor Jesse for your excellent teaching. God bless.
Jesse Martinez is literally doing God's work...... I'm so grateful I found this channel !!! Thanks so much !!!
Always blows me away how upside calvanists are when they site Matthew 7:21-23 when it cleary condemns their salvation doctrine.
They have to make the scriptures fit their point of view. It can mean what it really means. For them, if it falls outside TULIP, then it needs to be squeezed back in…
- Trent
@@BibleLineJesus said “these signs will follow them that BELIEVE--in my name they will cast out demons.” So how can these not be believers who are saying they casted out demons in His name?
I’ve heard this sort of stuff more so from non denominational/non calvinists than Calvinists
@@Wisppp_ maybe you’ve heard lordship salvationists say this? They’re essentially the same thing.
Amen. Calvinists are Spiritually Blind, they drive me Nuts 🥜. They will pay for their Sins in Hell.
Ill tell you. I was previously one of them who would have said "i did this and that in your name." But that overwhelmed me with anxiety because i realized i was not good enough. I could never do enough good to feel like god was happy with me. I think this is why jesus said we need to be humble. Because those who are not humble, actually believe they are good enough to please God.
Two men went up to the temple to pray....(LUKE 18:10)
Amen! May God’s abundant blessings continue to flow over Brother Jesse, Brother Trent, and everyone at the Bible Line ministry. “May the Lord bless you and protect you.”🙏☝️👑
The Devils definitely working overtime to lead as many souls to Hell with his False Gospel/Bad News to get people to trust in their Works to get them to Heaven.
Great video! Keep them coming!
Excellent video as always Pastor Jesse! Keep it up!
Thank you. When i gonally understood this in context i stopped doubting my salvation. I was looking at my works or lack of.
Wow, what a great message. Keep up the good work
Great job on a great passage of scripture brother Jessie!
God bless! ♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!!

🙏 Amen ,Pastor Jesse.

Love this explained series
Thank you!!

You gained a new subscriber. Keep preaching the Gospel brother.
I just Subscribed ❤
I adhered deeply in Calvinism and it was really suffocating, I thank God for using people like you pastor Jesse to enlighten us,.. One person that I thank God for also using is the Channel Onorato Diamante.. those who are reading this comment, I also recommend that channel a lot.. thanks
Lol how free grace can you get?
Have you also looked at Soteriology with Leighton Flowers?
Great video!
Thank you!!
- Trent
Wow this is soooooooo Awesome
Amen Jesse! Thank you so much. Can’t tell you how much your explanations help and they are so logical, unlike Calvinism. Jesus is the truth and truly great. Hard for us to comprehend his greatness, it’s beyond our understanding. What a saviour!
Thank you so much. We must stick to what the scripture clearly says! Calvinism diminishes the truth of the gospel.
- Trent
This is for people who are thinking their good works will save them. They are not trusting Christ to save them but their good works
This is for those who do not obey Messiah. He told us to keep God's Law. That is what the Sermon on the Mount is all about.(Matthew 5 - 7) They refuse to obey Messiah. They refuse to keep the very Law that will be written on every believer's heart. (Jeremiah 31:33)
Shalom!
@@danielnelson9411 this is for those who think they can keep God's laws apart from Christ. all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. self righteousness is sin
Revelation 14:12
Here is the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus.
@@danielnelson9411So Daniel, how are you doing with keeping God’s Commandments? Is he pleased with you? Will he say to you on the day of judgement - Well done, thou good and faithful servant! Try to remember, that if you break one Commandment, you are guilty of breaking them all. (JAMES 2:10)
Thank you.
AMEN!!!
Thank you!
The bible says the workers of iniquity are those who boast in themselves.
Psalm 94:4 KJV
How long shall they utter and speak hard things? And all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
Thank God for this channel. There’s so much noise on RUclips that isn’t biblical!😫😫
Amen 🙏
Thank you!
Realist paster 🔥
Amen!!!
3:02 yes 6:46 and yes!! Both are correct. ✅
We see an excellent context clue starting in Matt 7 and verse 15
Amen Brother. John 3:16. Jesus said it, we believe it, and that settles it. John 6:47. God cannot lie. The simplicity of the gospel. Acts 16:31.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. John 3:16-17 (Jesus = the word made flesh)
"Lord, I defended you in the comments section on RUclips".😅
That's a real bummer.
YAH bless
Thank you for teaching the truth! I always freak out when I read the word may as it implies to me that it might or might not happen. Is there a way to clarify that?
I believe that Luke explains this very well especially when those who are persecuting those who simply believes and places their faith Solely on Jesus Christ for their Salvation.
Lets look at The Word of GOD says In
Luke 18:9-14
New Living Translation
Parable of the Pharisee and Tax Collector
9 Then Jesus told this story to some who had great confidence in their own righteousness and scorned everyone else: 10 “Two men went to the Temple to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a despised tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed this prayer[a]: ‘I thank you, God, that I am not like other people-cheaters, sinners, adulterers. I’m certainly not like that tax collector! 12 I fast twice a week, and I give you a tenth of my income.’
13 “But the tax collector stood at a distance and dared not even lift his eyes to heaven as he prayed. Instead, he beat his chest in sorrow, saying, ‘O God, be merciful to me, for I am a sinner.’ 14 I tell you, this sinner, not the Pharisee, returned home justified before God. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”
" humbling ourselves" as a sinner needing a Savior Jesus Christ for Salvation and for forgiveness of our sins not in what we can do to save ourselves but to look to Jesus and believe on Him to be saved that is real repentance to come from unbelief to believing in Jesus Christ for Salvation and not proud and arrogant with prideful and self righteousness. Only Jesus Christ can Justify a sinner not ourselves or anyone else can.
Those who doesn't believe Solely on Jesus Christ for Salvation is condemned already.
Right on. Thank you!
- Trent
I'm frightened because it looks to me like works salvation is the predominant view on Christendom. It is bad enough when my unbelieving friends and family turn me away and recoil when I try to share my faith, but it's another kind of pain when your supposed fellow believers scoff at you.
“Scoff” is the operative word here. Scoffing is from a prideful heart, and pride was the problem Jesus was addressing in these passages. “Lord Lord, didn’t we blah blah blah....those people Jesus referred to there in Matthew 7 were trying to come to God on the basis of their own righteousness, and that my friend is the essence of pride, to tout one’s own achievements as the ticket into the kingdom, and that flies in the face of what Paul said, when he said that salvation was “not of works, lest any man should boast.”
I’m grieved and hurt i was just called a wolf so I started to read about false teachers .. and came to this video . I was called a wolf by someone who said God said I was wolf in sheep clothing .
They were mad I told them they were being self righteous by condemning a teenager and not giving them the gospel and they even went on to say I thank God I’m not like that I thank God I wasn’t like that at my young years . Immediately the story of the Pharisee and tax collector came to mind and I in a very gentle way tried to point out their error . They than a day later said The Lord said I’m a wolf to her .
I started to examine myself again to make sure I’m saved .
I’m sorry about that rough experience. That’s not really beneficial dialogue at all, especially since you’re seeking answers.
You don’t have to examine yourself to see if you are saved. The only way to be saved is to believe that Jesus Christ died for all your sin, was buried and is risen again. He paid for all your sins. Do you believe it?
You’re saved in that moment. Nothing can ever take away your eternal life from the moment you believed in Christ. See John 3:15-18, Eph. 1:12-14, and John 5:24.
Examining is for a different purpose. I know I’m saved since I believed. See 1 John 5:10-13.
- Trent
Gaslighting
They were focused on what they did for salvation. We are saved by His grace and by having His Spirit in us. By His righteousness in us we become righteous also. This is why Paul teaches the unrighteous will not enter the kingdom. This is done by having a relationship with Jesus this is why He says to them I never knew you. And why Jesus says depart you who practice iniquity.
Romans 1:16 I am not ashed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one who believes. You have to believe the truth That it is His power not ours but by His his power we are made righteous.
Very good teaching on "the will of the Father" from John 6. Also in John 6;
Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. John 6:27-29
It’s almost impossible to find a Grace gospel church that preaches this truth. How to find such a church?

Yes exact opposite.. Jesus never Knew them in this fist place. They never believed in Christ alone in the first place.
Great channel brother, Subbed.
Thank you so much. That’s encouraging!
- Trent
@BibleLine God Bless you Brother Trent!! 🙏
Not that they didn't believe they believed their works of self righteousness saved them instead of believing in the finished work of christ
@@bigal98761 Great perspective! Probably should have said, "they never trusted in Christ alone."
It's important to note that Jesus is saying that he never knew these people. He's not saying that he used to know them but not anymore. And to say that I must come to church every Sunday and confess my mistakes so that their salvation can be maintained, that would have to mean that Jesus didn't pay the full price of our iniquities on the cross. In the passion translation in Ephesians chapter 2 verse 9, it says that salvation is never a reward for human striving. The passion translation derives from the original Aramaic language
DEFINE "GOOD WORKS"
Righteous deeds, change in lifestyle for good, obedience, keeping standards, following the law, being good, and trying to earn your salvation in some manner similar to those aforementioned.
- Trent
If you say, Lord, Lord, after doing lawlessness is another, the correct work of those who say, Lord, Lord, is todo good works, not in cast out demons, it's hard having that, who will heal them, simple there are Spiritual gift.
The reason why it says depart from me, you workers of iniquity lawlessness is because there is the law and there is grace through faith. If they’re not in grace, they are in the law. And we know that no one can keep the law so they are a breaker of the law
Thus workers of iniquity
The ones who work iniquity do not have a regenerated spirit because they have never believed. Therefore all they can do in God's eyes is work iniquity. They only have the body of the flesh. This group never believed.
John 3:18
- Trent
1:40 It’s more that, there’s a strong agrument that eternal Salvation and entering the Kingdom of God are two different things. Salvation is needed to see the Kingdom( conversion with Nicadimus) start your walk towards it.
That’s what is talked about.
Confession of sin
Can you give me proper understanding of confession of sins daily basis pastor?
Confession is acknowledging or coming to an agreement with God about your sin. We confess our sin to God to renew fellowship with him. Jesus is our advocate. We should be honest and run to him every time we sin. This is not about salvation, but it is the daily relationship we have with God. 1 John 1:4-10
- Trent
@@BibleLine thank you so much Bible line
I have been in tears feeling so dumb and confused on this . Been going through real pain mentally emotionally and very exhausted because I didn't really know how to do this Im still looking for a Grace based Faith church in Louisiana or Mississippi and how to pray daily?
Still learning on The Bible and want to live righteous but not for my Salvation because I know I am saved because I believe in what our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ did for our sins on the cross.
Yes He is Risen Amen Hallelujah ❤️🙏
This response comment was a blessing from GOD. GOD bless you guys ❤️🙏
That’s very encouraging. The 1 John series we are releasing talks a lot about this idea. 1 John isn’t a salvation test, but it’s a fellowship and relationship book. It is written “that your joy may be full.” (1:4)
- Trent
Very true, however I wonder how James 2 ties into this whole situation, regarding faith without works is dead. We are saved by faith alone, at judgement day the lord will declare to us whether or not our Faith produced good works
In james we learn that there is works involved in faith... but it distinguishes between a work of the law and a work of faith
Works are works: Romans 11:6.
No works apply to saving a man - Titus 3:5, Eph. 2:8-9, Romans 4:5
James is telling people who already have faith to work so they can profit others. They had faith, but they were living as hypocrites.
Nonetheless, their salvation was set in stone the moment they believed in Christ.
- Trent
Man never loses his ability to accept or reject Jesus, God gave us free will to do that as moral creation until we die.
Salvation is do you believe now, not did you believe in the past.
I suggest you listen to dr Michael Brown on this, before you teach the false man made doctrine of once saved always saved.
Jas 2:22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
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.
Jas 2:24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
I have sins I struggle with and I'm always sad and depressed because of it. Is this a normal thing? I'm not lazy about reading my Bible everyday because I absolutely love God's word but all I see is my sinfulness in it
I think it’s very normal. No doubt the Spirit of God is convicting, especially if you’re reading the word.
He isn’t out to beat you over the head, but God still hates sin in the life of the believer. You will never be condemned to hell (assuming you’re a believer in Christ), but you can and will be out of fellowship with God if you keep sinning. This is the entire reason 1 John is written. We are to not sin, but if we do; we have an advocate in Jesus Christ!
1 John 1:4-10, 2:1-2

"There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ " . ❤️🙏
@@BibleLine I believed on the lord Jesus christ at 19 years old I'm 43 now and was raised in a anti religion anti Jesus home. I was an atheist drunk on my couch when I couldn't find anything to watch on TV except this preacher Jack Vanimpie and I believed and led my whole family to christ but fell into terrible sin 😔 I was blessed to end up at a free grace church and my wife and I were baptized. I have always studied my Bible whether I was in sin or not! When I got saved I was filled with unexplainable joy and I noticed I loved people! Before that I hated people especially any kind of religion.
Yes its normal we are in the flesh so we will struggle with sin the apostle Paul spoke about the struggle between the flesh and spirit that fight against sin Paul said the good that I wanna do i don't practice and the things I don't want to do I practice
You need to read the last part of that verse. He’s condemning those who do not obey the Law of God (Torah).
Thank you for your explanation, Pastor. I have a question though...how were the people that Jesus said he never knew able to perform such godly signs if they never believed? Don't they need faith to do such mighty works?
Good question, and thank you.
We must consider the demonic and Satanic power and presence. Think of Moses and the sorcerers under Pharoah. They attempted the copycat of the wonders Moses performed by God’s power. They came close, but ultimately God is more powerful.
We could also consider the future of the Antichrist’s power through Satan. They will work all types of lying wonders.
Ultimately the people in Matthew 7 never believed in Christ, but they trusted in their own works and experiences.
- Trent
I wrote a 20 paragraph message on Matthew 7:21-23
The will of the father is to be a Friend of God
Here is what chat gpt says about Matthew 7:21-23
Matthew 7:21-23, in the New International Version (NIV), states:
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'"
This passage is a part of Jesus' teachings in the Sermon on the Mount. It emphasizes that mere verbal acknowledgment of Jesus as Lord is not enough for salvation; rather, it's about living in accordance with God's will. The passage warns against relying solely on external religious activities or accomplishments without a genuine relationship with God. It stresses the importance of sincere faith and obedience.
To be fair to you, here is what chat gpt says about the free grace translation of Matthew 7:21-23
From a Free Grace perspective, interpreting Matthew 7:21-23 would likely focus on the idea that salvation is based solely on faith in Jesus Christ, and not on one's works or religious accomplishments. In this context, proponents of Free Grace theology might emphasize that what matters is the personal relationship with Christ and trusting in His finished work on the cross, rather than relying on deeds or achievements. They might argue that the passage is cautioning against a reliance on human efforts for salvation, highlighting the need for a genuine, faith-based connection with Jesus.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4. The Gospel in which we are SAVED. 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Jesus took my sin with Him to the cross. He paid the penalty for me. "It is finished." My obedience to the law is out of love and thanks to Jesus for saving me. It is not perfect and adds NOTHING to my salvation.
Still Messiah rejected those who thought they were saved because they did not keep God's Law. The same Law that Messiah told us to keep in Matthew 5:17-19. The same Law He expounded on right after He told us to keep it. The same Law that so called believers were not keeping. This is all found in the Sermon on the Mount. There is no need to look up other verses to try to explain. Messiah was very clear and concise in what He said. He does not need anyone to clarify it for it is crystal clear until someone pollutes what He said, making it mean something else entirely.
@@danielnelson9411Daniel, you ALWAYS have to look up other verses to try to explain! That’s the name of the game when you study scripture! On any particular subject in the Bible, it’s always best to get the whole council of God.
A good study is looking into the "workers of iniquity" Just some examples.
Psalms 94:4 KJV
(4) How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
Psalms 64:2 KJV
(2) Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:
Matt 7:21-23 condemns boasters who think good works save. It’s clear!
I have trusted Jesus Christ alone as my savior. As my only hope of going too heaven Christ died for my sins and i have believe it. I have eternal life that Can never be lost im justified by Jesus Christ grace alone. His blood was the payment for all my sins forgiveness. He saved me before i was ever born into this world. Is like im dying on the cross with Christ buried with Christ and rose again too eternal life with Christ. All he wanted me too do is too believe he did it for me. And i have believe him
WOW!!!!! So clearly and eloquently delivered!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
Going to church and works doesn't necessarily mean genuine relationship with Christ. I believe these people who are told to depart are those who never came into genuine oneness with God

Great explanation Thank you , showing people should never put your personal works before Jesus Christ lord and Savior is #1 . And he will keep your path straight.
The thing that gets me, they accuse us of saying "you should lead a sinful life" and still be saved. Yet, nobody who has faith and believes in christ ever said "awww great! Im gonna go out and sin it up!"
And have you noticed the accusers always go to the extremes? They say things like "so i can go out and rape and kill children and women and still be saved?" Its always something so extreme. Its a strawman to make us look like miscreants when reality is completely opposite. Its not that we want to sin. Its that nothing we do can save nor condemn us. Its not about our works. Its about christs works. Whats so hard to get? Only a child of the devil, an apostate or reprobate cant see it and would make that accusation. Their voice when they say things like that is like satan accusing God to eve. Or satan tampting and accusing jesus in the wilderness.
King David was an adulterer, coveter, and murderer. I don't think he is burning in Hell.
There are people in the Bible that were the worst of the worst sinners Paul was the chief sinner no one can be sinless as long as we are in the flesh we will struggle with sin the spirit fights the flesh
It’s keeping the 10 Commandments if we don’t keep these 10 Commandments then we are lawbreakers. John. 14. [15] If ye love me, keep my commandments. [21] He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Do you keep all the commandments?...
The anti free gracers have it bass awkward!!!
You should debate James White 😊
You do know that people that think that way they do not understand scripture you jess you understand the scripture very clear. It’s clear to me that these are people that did not do the will of the father found in John chapter 6 verse 40.
These men were boasting about their own works of self righteousness to grant them kingdom entrance instead of relying on the finished work of Christ that's why he said I never knew you anyone who is relying on thier works to be saved are not saved
After salvation trying to do the good works actually stumbles you. What you are not allowed to do is to identify back with your old you. That is what satan tries to do after you are born again and delivered even in your body.
What happens if he manages to trick you and under pressure of thought about fear you put your trust back in the world and in appeasing the spirit which is in the world - you definitely lose your assurance, the wicked spirits flood your body and you become oppressed again ( “little children beware of idols”). Some say, like you, this is just the loss of reward ( cause you could stay saved in your body and soul as well).
Some say you lost your salvation by this.
It's crazy how many apostate works theologies that are out there.
Hello, can you please orient me where I stand with God.
20 yo or so, I was praying to God that he takes me away from here, had an out of body experience, got filled with the Holy Spirit, disentangled from sin( saw how it happens, those shackles like cobwebs torn).
My spirit and my body were filled with the Holy Spirit. But then satan came, it was similar to Jesus’s temptation in the wilderness, and I didn’t get it right that day, I acted out of works, not faith. I thought if I didn’t do according to “works”, satan would have the legal ground to attack me. I didn’tTrust Christ to protect me from satan if I do according to faith. As a result, on the contrary, my body left the covering of the Holy Spirit and satan latched onto my physical mind and body. It took years for me to realise what happened that day, reading, talking priests, recent years watching RUclips videos , until I stumbled upon the doctrine of Salvation, doctrine of faith, which additionally let me know that I have been fighting my recovery if one is possible during all the years after the experience, I tried to bring Grace back by works and was refusing all opportunities to act according to faith.
Russian Orthodox Church, where I am from, says that until I die I still have chance to get back to Christ.
What does your teaching say? Is there a chance to still recover by walking be faith( just like that day of the “ wilderness test”. I thought I must become clean first and then I would “have the right” to walk by faith, I positively viewed walking by faith as sin cuz it obviously was contrary to the outside rules).
Was my experience- the Salvation? Or did I forfeit it, given the opportunity to put my trust in Christ I didn’t put it?(by not resisting satan after submitting to God)
Was just my spirit saved and I let satan to repossess my body and my body, that physical person is not saved? Or did I flunk salvation altogether? Is the cure still possible if I return to walking by faith?
We believe the scripture says this:
All you have to do to KNOW you WILL go to heaven whenever you die is BELIEVE in Jesus Christ as your Savior. Do you believe that He died on the cross, was buried and resurrected to pay your sin debt?
The only thing separating you from Holy God is sin, but Jesus paid your penalty. All He asks you to do is believe it. Do you? If yes, you’re saved. You’re saved from that very moment. If never before, will you believe in Jesus Christ for the payment of your sin?
John 6:47 “he that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”
John 5:24 “he that heareth my word and believeth on him that sent me hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death unto life.”
Acts 16:31 “believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.”
It’s a free gift. Will you believe in Christ?
- Trent
I believe in Christ. I believe he saved me. But that I didn’t resist satan right after born again experience. ( I got confused, having a notion that any resistance was sinful. )
And my physical body got stuffed with those thorns and thistles. I feel sin matter present in my body and have bouts of anxiety that “ But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned”.
Often thinking that I may face “but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire”.
I want those thorns and thistles I acquired acting against faith be burned again, like it happened during Born Again experience. And I don’t know if it is still possible. I don’t know if it sounds arrogant but I still want the full package, my earthly body redeemed and cleaned, Even though I backslid. I hear some denominations call it rewards ( saved earthly stuff: sanctified body, recovered relationships with people).
If losing this( rewards) is not loss of salvation, it definitely feels that way at times, actually often times .
Thank you.
Yes, after you believe, you remain saved. Nevertheless, you can miss out on rewards as you illustrated. Salvation cannot be lost because our sin no longer condemns us.
- Trent
Beautifully done!
I always camped on the "I never knew you", and you just blew me away with the part I skim over. The will of the Father is to "believe in the one whom HE sent" Jesus, yes!!!!
Wow, overwhelmingly good!!!!!!
And just remember that when Jesus started that WHOLE teaching back in verse 15, he was referring SPECIFICALLY to false prophets.
Great teaching. I have a show called the Hope Report. Would love to have you as a guest if you’re interested.
9:57 ...you do realize that a core part of calvanism is predestination, that being not only are you always saved when your once saved, but before you were even born you were destined to be saved, right? i think you might be misunderstanding calvanism. because really, predestination and once saved always saved go hand and hand
To put it in different terms, there is only ONE who is WORTHY to enter Heaven.. the Son of God; Jesus Christ. We are not worthy, HE is. And by grace through faith, God views YOU as HIM.
HE is the one who was chosen; elect. Why do you think He speaks about eating His flesh and drinking His blood? Clothing yourself in Christ? The BODY of Christ.. being ONE IN CHRIST..
Believe on Christ.. be IN Christ... our baptism is IN Christ.. into His death, into His resurrection.. to be WITH HIM always. When you pray, you pray in HIS name. To be a Christian is to be in Christ.. Salvation is cleaving onto the Lord, to be one with him.. this is Salvation by grace, through faith alone. Salvation belongs to the Lord!
I want to help you, LOOK!! I have much knowledge and can help! 😁
Once saved always saved...
The Mathew passage is written to Israel not to us
I would rather be a “grace abuser” and think Jesus paid it all compared to a person that thinks Jesus dying was not enough, which is it 100%
Amen brother Jesus Christ is coming back soon!!!
ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED
1 John 5:13 KJV ❤✝️🙏🏼
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. (Jesus Christ).
Everyone is a sinner since the beginning.
Although avoiding sin will improve our spiritual walk with God and here on Earth, there are No repenting of sins, no false teachings like work for your own salvation, no false signs needed to know Jesus Christ has shed His blood for all and offers the gift of eternal life to anyone who believes on him. Know you are going to Heaven today by simply believing and trusting Jesus Christ, its as simple as drinking water. ❤ He is the propitiation for the sins of the world and no other, the Gospel = Good News ❤
Hebrews 10:38-39 . Those who live by faith,are justified. Not those who talk by faith,then live by doubt and unbelief. Live like the devil.
Bible.. Jesus plus His Instructions
OSAS Jesus ALONE..Jesus Minus His Instructions..
The just shall live by faith. Hebrews 10:38-39. Many Christians confess say they believe in the gospel of Christ. But live by doubt and unbelief. live a sinful lifestyle in the world. They don't repent, confess,seek deliverance from sin. Because they don't think they're doing anything wrong. Osas right!!. Wrong!. The will of the father is to, Live by faith. Not talk by faith.
I’m not baffled at it at all because the only people that take this burst the wrong way or those who don’t have the Holy Spirit or they have the Holy Spirit, but they are young meaning very very young in the body of Christ they are just learning but eventually, the Holy Spirit will Allow them to hear the truth so I’m not baffled at all because this verse in context is speaking of false teachers.
To believe in Christ is to obey Christ. Matt 7: 24-26
Trying to earn salvation won't work out for you my man
@@HouseRat1997 If you don't believe the words of Jesus, then I don't know what to say.
@@CalvinGoodloe-qh3ww you don't know Jesus.
Okay
Matthew 7:24-26 is not claiming one is saved by his obedience. The dissertation is with regards to his disciples. We do not lived disciplined lives to be saved, but we lived disciplined lives because we are saved. Salvation is utterly free by grace through faith in Christ for the full payment of your sin.

I have a couple of things to consider about this verse, that God pointed out to me. One, is Jesus says He “never knew them”. That term refers to He never had a close, personal relationship with them. Secondly, notice, He calls them”workers of iniquity”. And psalm 5:5 says God hates all workers of iniquity. So, according to the Bible, Jesus hates those people. And a person can’t have a close, personal relationship with someone they hate. Yes, you may not like this view, but I’m going by the Bible. Trusting in their works for salvation is wrong, I realize, but that does not make them workers of iniquity. I think maybe He could be referring to these so called “gay Christians” that do those works in his name. They are not the only people who are workers of iniquity, I realize, but none the less, they are workers of iniquity. And according to Psalm 5:5, God hates all workers of iniquity.
You have to rightly divide the scriptures math mark Luke and John those books are written to Israel under the law the are teaching the gospel of the kingdom not the gospel of grace read Paul’s epistles those books are written to us
Amen pastor thank you sir God bless you 🙏
I don't understand why people don't understand this. If you're a sinner, lost and you want to be saved all you have to do is put your faith in Jesus. Don't worry about works Jesus did the work. If your faith is real then he will sanctify you, he will cleanse you, he will redeem you. He will, not you. It doesn't mean you'll immediately become a saint, either. But if you're faith is in the Redeemer 'jesus' then he will forgive and sanctify you. If you put your faith in him and 2 years later your still a prostitute or drug dealer or what ever than your faith wasn't real, you didn't want to be saved
We sin less then we used to after we are saved no one becomes sinless after being saved if sinless perfection was possible then Jesus death was for nothing
You fail to "rightly divide" as instructed by the Apostle Paul in 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV)
This is really talking about false prophets who never got born again. Jesus didnt say they did good works - they did. The whole paragraph is talking about false prophets - look at their fruit.
Pull away from wallowing in the doctrinal mire Jesse. What you mean by 'believing on Jesus' is that a person has surrendered. Let me make this simple and non-opinionated: We are here for one reason: Luke 2:52 - to grow 'in wisdom and stature, in favour with God and man(those who recognise His power at work through us)'. Romans 8:29 explains the reason.
Jesus refers to those never surrendered, whose every motivation for every action they took in life was Pride. Regardless of their appearance of benevolence. Philippians 1:6 is the pivot of Matthew 7:21-23. If He never began a good work in us, nothing will have been carried out unto the "day of Jesus Christ". There will be nothing in us that He recognises as of Himself.
I agree with some of what he says.. but faith and trust are not merely intellectual.. genuine faith is married to works of faith.. in other words if no action or obedience is taken then its not faith.
Faith is not works. Romans 4:5. The two are completely different. Faith in Christ gives eternal life - this is free. Works are costly, require effort, and they are not free. They EARN things. Salvation cannot be earned.
- Trent
The thief on the cross is not the exception to the rule but the rule.
@BibleLine there are works of law and works of faith.. two different things. Read james.
Salvation does not require a work of law but it requires a work or better stated an obedience of faith
@@justinsalhani3734
God doesn’t make obedience the standard for your place in His family in the same way you don’t do that to your kids.
We don’t obey God out of guilt over past sins. Your sins are forgiven and removed by the blood of Christ. Serve out of love and not to cover guilt that has been washed clean by Christ.
You are a blind guide, leading the blind. I pray the Lord reveals the truth to you.
If I marry my wife, that doesn’t mean I’m a good husband. I’m a good husband because I love my wife. Similarly, believing in Christ is not salvific. One must be faithful, and works are an outgrowth of faithfulness
If you and your wife have a child
a boy and he is your biological son . Then my question is if both of you have a argument when he is older and you tell him " son you're not my son" and he says " well fine; dad you're not my dad" .
Is he still your son and are you still his dad biologically ? Or can you undo his DNA 🧬?
We receive Sonship once we place our Faith in Jesus Christ Alone. We can't ever lose our Salvation we are sealed with The Holy Spirit until the Day of Redemption.
Salvation is a Free GIFT from GOD and not earned by man through works lest any man should boast.
Salvation and Discipleship are totally different things.
Salvation is Free but Discipleship with cost us .
Service to GOD is works but it doesn't save anyone. ONLY JESUS CHRIST CAN .
Amen ❤️🙏
If you marry your wife you are married. Being a good husband takes work and effort on your part. If you belive in Jesus for your salvation you are saved. Being a good Christian or disciple takes work or effort on your part.
@@wib50 Believing is more than just understanding that Jesus is Lord. Believing requires abiding faith, otherwise it is meaningless. “If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned.”
John 15:6 ESV
@@SongwriterTacoyes, faith or belief is personally trust.
You literally just said “faith requires abiding faith.” Faith is believing. How is faith defined? Is faith as a child abiding faith, or does the child just believe (simply) in the promise? Faith is not works…
- Trent
They are not doing Goodworks.. Jesus..said it very clearly..I believe Jesus..I don't believe you
only faithfull believers will rule and reign with christ during the thousand year reign , the lukewarm will be counted as other offspring they will be saved they just do not recieve the promised rewards there is a differance from works of faith and works of the law
You need to find out what lukewarm actually means.
Other offspring? There is no "other" offspring. That is foreign to the Bible. Where would that idea come from?

Go Ahead,,, be LAWLESS,,, walk in your LICENTIOUSNESS,,, No altar call, No repeat after me prayer, none of the dung of Jesus come into my heart nonsense, is valid.
Without REPENTANCE, there is no Salvation. If you think you can do whatever you want, thats anarchy. There are rules, there are laws for all of mankind to follow.
No one is "saved", there has been no rescue,,,,,YET
No one is "born again" that is also a future event.
Wake up!!!!
Love God
Obey His commandments
Embrace Messiah Yeshua
This is your DUTY as men.
Yes, Jessie, you should read what the Bible says, the Bible also says that the will of GOD for you is your sanctification, that you should abstain from sexual immorality, (1st Thess 4:3) why didn't you mention that one? There's two more verses that specifically mention HIS will, one mentions doing good and the other mentions giving thanks. Besides that, every command in the Bible is HIS will for us. This is what happens when you eisegete, you have to ignore passages and explain away others.
So does abstaining from sex , save you , keep you saved, or if you have sex again will you lose your Salvation? Before you answer
let's remember JESUS CHRIST'S POWERFUL INNOCENT PRECIOUS BLOOD THAT IS SUFFICIENT BEYOND EVERYTHING.
@@Jesussaves.7777 the Bible doesn't say abstain from sex, it says abstain from sexual immorality. In other words sexual sin. If you are in a Biblical marriage, (one man married to one woman) you can have all the sex you want. A true believer can fall into sexual sin, but the HOLY SPIRIT will convict that person, the FATHER will chasten that person so that they repent confess and forsake it. If a person is PRACTICING sexual sin, meaning willful ongoing unrepentant, then the Bible, not me, says that you will not inherit the Kingdom of GOD. 1st Cor. 6:9-10
Gal. 5:19-21
Eph. 5:5-6
Notice those verses talk about being deceived, please, whoever you are, don't let anyone deceive you. These Scriptures are clear. JESUS mentions deception 3 times in Matthew ch. 24 when talking about end times signs.
@@stevehernandez1357 that is incorrect where in the Bible does it say that GOD can lose a believer?
@@stevehernandez1357 there is no such thing as a " true believer " either you believe or you don't believe in Jesus Christ for Salvation.
But woe to those who place their faith in works and not Solely in Jesus Christ.

True Disciples
21 “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. 22 On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ 23 But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
