    Amen brother! Took me 40 years of thinking my behavior was part of salvation. I know now it is what Jesus did on the cross for me that is saving faith. Trust in Jesus alone for eternal life. 😊

    This is a part of my life that I have been missing. I will continue to be and do the best I can , however I am doing so from a place of peace, knowing that Jesus has prepared a place and way for me. Instead of trying to open the door I walk in and live from there!

    As usual, I really like your take here. Your emphasis on having peace tied to Christ alone is of course of the essence.
    It's why I struggle sometimes with verses like Colossians 1:21-23, which seems to intimate a conditional security based on our staying steadfast in the faith. Thanks again for your perspective.

      Never project onto God the traits of fallen man. People can and will hurt you, let you down, betray you, not come through, etc, but none of that should ever reflect on a perfect, holy, loving God. Get with God in prayer and His Word and let Him refresh your perspective. God bless!

    From time to time i struggle with this because i get thoughts of when the holy spirit drew you that morning you believed on the Lord Jesus to save you asking him to save you, no i didnt doubt that he could and during that moment expressing to the Lord Jesus that i believed in his birth, death on the cross, what he did for me on the cross shedding his blood and dying and rising again the third day that god almighty raised him from the dead and felt such peace and joy and love, but get a feeling or thought that im not saved, almost thinking well i didn't say the right thing or something but its not about that i know, i know satan wants us to doubt especially as im praying and believing for my childrens salvation and other things in my life, he'll come at you hard.

      We're saved by faith, not how we feel. If your children don't feel like they're your children, are they still? Of course, and we are the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus (Gal 3:26, John 1:12-13). We walk by faith, not by sight (or feelings, emotions, fear, etc. 2 Cor 5:7). If satan/the demonic can get you feeling a certain way, they can usually manipulate you into doubt, fear, depression, etc. performance, you'll always have room for doubt. When your eyes are set on Jesus, you'll have no fear because you know that He did it all. Stand on the objective truth of God's Word, and not the subjective experiences/thoughts/feelings/emotions we can all have. HE did it for us. We trust in that. That's the gospel (1 Cor 15:1-4). God bless!

      I'll do something like that at some point, but in short all saved people will be with Jesus during His reign on earth for the millenium. People who survived the tribulation in faith will populate the world at that time, and we'll be in our new (glorified) bodies.

    What if you don't believe in progressive sanctification, but you do believe the Gospel; but continue as (for example) as a mafia hit man, involved in trafficking, and you pay no attention to the Holy Spirit trying to change your character, or convict you of sin, righteousness and judgement. Would such a person be guaranteed salvation, regardless of his lifestyle?

      Salvation is a gift (eph2:8-9, rom 6:23), and God never revoked His gifts (rom 11:29). He gives us a new heart with new and right desires (ezk 36:26), and the Holy Spirit to help us, but we still
      Have to choose to follow Him. David had a man murdered after he took the guys wife, Solomon built pagan shrines and burnt incense on them (1 kings 11:1-13), etc. they never lost their salvation. If your bad works cost you salvation, you would be saved by good works. We’re saved by believing the gospel, not of works (eph 2:8-9). Bad works bring consequence, loss of rewards, punishment, etc.

    When you become a believer in Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit will be dwelling in you and will make you more sensitive to the sins you commit and probably didn't care about before knowing the Lord. It could make you think you're a worse person than before. No, that is a lie the enemy could feed you.
    Instead of focusing on what you SHOULD NOT DO, focus on what you SHOULD DO. Follow Paul's advice (Galatians 5:22-23 and Phil. 4:4-8) or just yield to the urges of the Holy Spirit.
    God's power in your life did not stop at the moment you believe in Christ. It only started from there. It is not an "accept and forget" type of deal.
    Do not believe the lie that God is a passive God that only records everything you do. He is an active and loving Father to you guiding you in every step of the way. Just be sensitive to leading of His Holy Spirit that is now in you.

    Also consider these:
    ● Faith only:
    Jesus warned me it's going to rain, but i will NOT take an umbrella because it is a "work"?
    Compare with Heb 11^7 (how Noah became an heir of the righteousness by faith) - faith _sunergei_ (works together with) works (Jam 2^22).
    ● ... and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
    - Jam 2^18 KJV
    ● *"work/s"* - some examples:
    work of faith: 1-Thess 1^3.
    works of the flesh: Gal 5^19-21.
    work of ministry (plant, water): 1-Cor 3^5-15.
    works of the (Jewish) law: Rom 3^28-29.
    the works of Abraham: Jn 8^39 (compare Gen 26^5).
    works meet for repentance: Ac 26^20.
    the first works: Rev 2^5.
    the faith without works *cannot* [μη δυναται / mē dunatai / is not able] to save (Jam 2^14)
    ● to them indeed/on-one-hand seeking glory and honour and immortality by endurance of good work eternal life:
    - Rom 2^7 (the apostle Paul)
    ~KJV•Marshall•Young•Nestle
    ● "the righteous shall live by faith" (from Rom 1^17, Gal 3^11): the apostle Paul possibly refering to the phrase in Hab 2^4: the righteous shall live _be'ĕmûnātô_ [by his faithfulness].
    The Hebrew _'ĕmûnāh_ seems to have a wider meaning than the modern western interpretation: reliability, faithfulness, includes commitment & relational trust: compare with Prov 28^20, Prov 12^17, Psa 33^4, 1-Sam 26^23, 2-Ki 12^15, 1-Chron 9^31, 2-Chron 34^12 ... (see: Brown-Driver-Briggs, Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, Berean Strong's Lexicon, Englishman's Concordance).
    ● the "works of the law" in Rom 3^28 refers to that of the Jews (read the next verse ^29). Martin Luther "translated" Rom 3^28 using the phrase _"alleyn durch den glawben"_ - LUT1522 (alone through the faith) by adding "alone" into the Text. See "Sendbrief vom Dolmetschen" (written 8 Sep 1530) for his explanation - there are English translations of it on the internet.
    ● nevertheless the foundation of God standeth firm, having this seal: |the| Lord knoweth 《all》 them being His, and: *everyone* [πας/pas] naming the Name of |the| Lord(Christ) *must apostatize* [αποστητω/apostētō]º from unrighteousness.
    - 2-Tim 2^19 a literal translation

      "But to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness" Rom 4:5
      "he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy" Titus 3:5
      "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast" Eph 2:8-9
      If your works got you in the door, or keep you in the door, you have a reason to boast.

    Jesus saw dead people in the church 😮😥

    (Revelation 3:1) To the angel of the church in Sardis write: These are the words of the One who holds the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars. I know your works; you have a reputation for being alive, yet you are dead.
    _-
    The Christians in Sardis, had a reputation amongst other churches, for being alive in Christ. But when Jesus looked at them, He saw that some of them were already dead, and some were about to die. Only a few were still alive, and faithful to Christ, and His word.
    _-
    Are you dead, or alive?
    Adam and Eve died, because they listened to the lies of the devil, and they thought they knew better than God. They thought, obedience to God, was not that important. They could sin a little, and get away with it. But every time you try to water down God's word, lower His standards, remove the parts you don't like, and only preach and teach the parts that you like, you slowly begin to die spiritually.
    _-
    The devil's false teachings has entered the church, and many are dying spiritually. Sin is destroying them. Pride and arrogance, has overtaken them. Selfishness and hypocrisy, rules in their heart. Their desire to obey God, is dead. Their determination to stop sinning, is dead. Their compassion for the poor and needy, is dead. Their love for their brothers and sisters, is dead. Their desire to live holy and righteous, is dead. Their desire to produce good fruit, and good works for the kingdom of God, is dead.
    _-
    A dead person, can't talk, can't see, can't hear, and can't feel, or act. They can't show any love, to those who feel discouraged. They can't show any compassion, to those who are suffering. They can't see the needs of those around them, and can't do anything to help them. They sin and do evil, without feeling guilt or remorse. They're full of pride, arrogance, selfishness, judgement, condemnation, and hypocrisy.
    _-
    On the outside, they might seem alive, praying, singing, preaching, doing the work of God, but on the inside, they are spiritually DEAD. The Holy Spirit does not dwell in them, and the fruit of the Holy Spirit, is not visible in their lives. Because they are following a dead, false, and corrupted version of the Gospel, and man-made inventions and teachings, that causes them to keep doing the dead works of sin, and unrighteousness.
    _-
    If you follow the dead, death will begin to follow you, so follow those who are alive. God cannot use dead Christians. Jesus told the church:
    "Wake up, and strengthen what remains, which was about to die; for I have found your works incomplete in the sight of My God," Revelation 3:2.
    _-
    (Revelation 3:3) Remember therefore how you have received and heard. Keep it, and repent. If therefore you do not wake up, I will come as a thief, and you won’t know what hour I will come to you.

      _-
      The Bible keeps comparing people to trees, that either produce good fruit, bad fruit, or no fruit at all.
      A tree producing good fruit, is pleasant to God, Matthew 3:8.
      A tree producing bad fruit, is worthless to God, Matthew 3:10.
      A tree producing no fruit, is also worthless to God, Luke 13:7.
      _-
      If a farmer plants a few orange fruit trees 🍊, but some of the trees produce no fruits, year in year out, he will want to cut them down. If some of the trees produce only rotten fruits, he will want to cut them down as well.
      But the trees that produce healthy, and fresh looking fruits, in abundance, he will benefit from them, but also his family, friends, and neighbors will benefit from them. They will eat delicious orange fruits, and get the health benefits.
      _-
      Likewise, God expect our lives to produce good fruit, so that we will be beneficial to others. If we truly have the fruit of the Holy Spirit, it will impact people's lives, in a positive way.
      The way we live, must add value to other people's lives, and enhance and enrich their quality of life, for example, by speaking words of wisdom, life, and encouragement. But also, by being helpful, supportive, and kind to them.
      _-
      If we do not obey the Spirit of God, we won't produce good fruit. If we only live for ourselves, do what makes us happy, keep all of our blessings to ourselves, and obey the desires of our flesh, then we're not producing the kind of fruits, that pleases the Lord God. You better check your fruit, before you get cut down for good !

    You have to stop living in sin and repent to him and ask for forgiveness of your sins. Without hollyness noone will see God. You cannot say that you are saved and then do whatever you want (sin) and proclaim rigteusness and Jesus. We cannot be hypochrytes.
    Imagine now you are going to drink, gamble, fornicate...etc. and then you claim that you are saved by continuing to do so till the day of your death or rapture. You will have rude awakening in eternity when he says to you depart from me because i never knew you you worker of iniquity and you will go to hell. So if you do not stop living in sin and ask for forgiveness this is the final judgment for all those who refuse to accept Jesus and his call. Wake up.

      You live ignorantly. You did not receive your full salvation yet, but you have to receive Jesus and his Holly Spirit to be marked untill the day of redemption. There is no such a thing as faith alone that saves people, but in Ephensians it says that we are saved by grace through faith, not of our works so that noone can boost because we are created in Christ Jesus to do good works that God predestined for us to do. So if you do not forsake sin today and turn to God and live according to the scripture you will not receive salvation neither you will be raptured because Jesus Christ is coming for a pure and spottless bride and nothing unclean will enter heaven.

      Their spirit does not have the desire to sin because it doesn’t sin however our flesh does desire sin which it does. Paul makes this clear in his teachings…this is why we are encouraged to crucify the flesh daily and live by the spirit. Jesus is our advocate when we sin as believers. We are sealed with the Holy Spirt promise until the day of redemption.
