Here are a few additional thoughts and scriptures on this topic that I hope you find helpful: "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit." -Titus 3:5 "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8 "The Gospel is this: We are more sinful and flawed in ourselves than we ever dared believe, yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope...Religion says, 'I obey; therefore I’m accepted.' Christianity says, 'I’m accepted; therefore I obey.'" -Timothy Keller (1950-2023) "The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us." - C.S. Lewis (1898-1963)
"What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them 'Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,' but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." - James 2:14-17 "Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way? For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also." - James: 25-26 We are all saved through faith, and our works flow with the intent of love. Protestantism gets this wrong everywhere. The one true church, the Catholic Church, understands this.
@@Christendom88 James was saying that you can't have true faith WITHOUT works to show you are truly repentant. Paul said I will show you my faith BY my works, yet also says by works you cannot be saved. We do works, guided by the Holy Spirit, because we are grateful for what Jesus has done for us on the cross. Not for our own gain, and what we can do, but to further the kingdom of God.
@@Christendom88 Your verse are also true. Though John 14:6 says: “6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” This doesn’t mean that we stop doing works it means that we start following Him so that we just naturally do those works out of love not struggle to follow some rules. It is a relationship He is looking for first and foremost. 1 Samuel 15:22 says “22 And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.” Jesus wants us to obey and follow Him so that He can help us because He knows doing it on our own (sacrifice) we WILL fail. He was the endall sacrifice so all we need to do is follow Him and He will guide us to do what He may. After all, Proverbs 3:5-6 says: “5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” To just do works without having a relationship with Him and having Him guide you is “leaning on your own understanding” of what needs to be done.
@@JTNugget, I did not say you quoted it in error, I was asking you if you understand what you quote because it seems not appropriate to refute the Calvinistic concept of salvation?
@@JTNugget yeah “faith” faith in what? Faith in our salvation through the blood of Jesus is why we do works out of that same faith, not by your works you will be saved. We cannot nor will ever be saved by anything we can do to earn it. It’s a gift to be received to believe that any human being without the blood sacrifice of Jesus can be good is beyond crazy. None of us can name one perfect human being except Jesus right? Who do we think we are that we can save ourselves?

You want to believe him because his method is easy and welcoming, but what if she’s correct and we do need to work at salvation instead of simply believing?
@@johnjeffreys6440good thing we don’t because NONE of us can do enough works to overcome our sinful nature. What your expressing is prideful look at me look at me look what I did. God don’t care how much God you do in order to earn something. God cares about how you act because you feel gratitude.
@@DangerousWordsPodcast well a lot of ardent Christians on YT say that we do need to repent and get sin out of our lives. I hope it is as easy as simply believing, but there is a lot of evidence to the contrary, even in the Bible. I struggle to avoid a glass of wine and a couple of beers at the end of the day because I believe it’s sinful. I’d much rather drink those beverages with no guilt of thinking it’s leading me to hell. Not sure what that has to do with pride as you mentioned to me.
I agree with the preacher but come on, the video literally ended as soon as he stopped speaking. How could you know the girl was left speechless unless you saw the whole raw and uncut video before this clip?
@@garebaregoof4226 I get so tired of the "us vs. them" mentality where every other political headline says: "So-and-so Humiliated...Destroyed...Owned...etc. by their Opponent". She wasn't left speechless. She was just starting to realize that he's not as stupid as she initially thought.
They think they're hiding their hatred but it's obvious to Christians that they're not. Showing them respect and love mixed with truth just short circuits their brain.
@@MrBeen992Question for you- if I'm wrong and following Christ's teaching doesn't get me to heaven- how did that hurt you? Evan just following what he defines as the greatest commandment- love the Lord your God with all your heart and soul and mind and strength and the second- love your neighbor (or each other) as your closest friend ("brother") makes the world a better place.
This is the difference between true Christianity and every other religion on earth. Christians believe that we are not worthy of forgiveness, and eternal life and that we need a savior, a sacrifice to satisfy the wrath of a just God. Only Christ could pay the wages of sin for us. Every other religion believes you can somehow earn your way into heaven.
Why we not worth the forgiveness? If my father kill a man will I punish for his crime ? so the god from your perspective not fair .. in our religion god forgive adam for his slip (it’s not sin the lord say ) and instead blame adam , God blame the Satan ( The one how manipulate people to make sins and we can’t see him ) .. "It does not blind the eyes, but it blinded the hearts in the chests" from quran .. may allah guide you all accept my greetings
Without the Lord Jesus Christ, I can do nothing good, scripture also says, all our good works are as filthy rags before a Holy and righteous God, Isaiah 64- verse 6. I belong to the Lord Jesus Christ, He has bought me at a price. That price was the spilling of His most precious blood, He won't let me go, and I can't live without Him. Amen
No, not from a "peaceful religion," but instead the love & calmness comes from "a relationship with the Lord Jesus." It's TRULY not about religion, it's about a RELATIONSHIP.
"O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 2: 8-9 "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast."
So does that mean , we should continue in sin and not do works like preaching the gospel because we have or will be saved by just having faith in God? Please explain
@Victorsesan3578 no, of course not. What Paul is saying here is that the only reasonnwhybwe believe is because of the faith we have given to us by our Father in heaven. A free gift. When we heard the Good News of the Gospel, we repented. In other words we felt ashamed of living on our own strength and understanding of life. Now that we have come to the light it is God's Holy Spirit that brings us to glory and glory. Being transformed the renewing of our mind. Good works won't save you. Good works us the evidence of God's seal.on His people. That's what Ephesians 2:8-9. But, remember Paul also explains that we're still in the body. Our flesh has sinful desires, therefore; our spirit is at war with the flesh. Which one are you feeding the most? At the end we are the branches and Jesus is the vine, without Him, we could do nothing. So, the fact that you are saved and doing good works from the Holy Spirit is all because of Him who died for you. Like Paul said to the church of corinthians, if anyone is gonna boast, let them boast in the Lord!
@@cinemma5834 the preacher in the video also share that sentiment of the simple belief in jesus gains you access to forgiveness of all your sin, even if you continue to live a life full of sin. She says you have to do works and actively be a good person to get into heaven to which he says jesus is his free pass
@goranmilic442 that's a MASSIVE question. And a dang good question as well. 1st. Read the 4 Gospels. They're the equivalent to 120 pages or so. If thats too much, start with the Gospel of John. Decide for yourself, if Jesus is someone you want to trust and put your faith in. I would say start there. When reading them think... what were His ethical Teachings? What were His moral teachings? Also. Check out the 10 Commandments. The 1st 4 are how we are to treat God. The last 6 are how we are to treat each other. God bless. Ask more questions of ya have them.

I think Koran in fact says in one of its sura that for a muslim transgression "people of the Book" (Jews and Christians) will pay lol. So in a way she won't be the only one paying for her sins, even according to the very core teaching of hers - they still need Christians and Jews
Not in the Quran but certainly in the Sunnah hadiths does it mention that a Jew/Christian will pay the penalties of a Muslim, which is obviously corrupt as they are punished for sins they didn't commit
The Koran is not talking about paying for sins, they didn't even have that concept. They used to literally make Jews and Christians pay a tax to not be Muslims. If they couldn't pay, they would be enslaved or killed.
@@SimonASNGno there are references if not in the Quran then the Hadiths that mention a Jew or Christian will replace those (Muslums) in hell when they enter Heaven.
Wow, I didn't know that. But she sure should have. Lol she would have to live perfectly and still need Christians and Jews to also obtain salvation by works. So if it's not based on her works alone, but also other's works, there really isn't a chance of salvation apart from Christ. Still funny how she says she "loves Jesus more..." When she doesn't even put her trust in Him.
Quoting random verses without context doesn't help anyone. I'm more guilty than anyone of doing it as a young Christian, but we have to seek truth and wisdom according to God, and from God, not to profess a narrative for our egos.
”For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast.“ Ephesians 2:8-9 Then it is the next verse that puts works in context. ”For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“ Ephesians 2:10 Works, for the Christian, are a thank you to God for already saving them. Christians WILL do good works. They are necessary. But good works themselves do not save us or anyone. Only Jesus saves.
"O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." 1 Corinthians 55-88
I am a “Christian” and I disapprove of this. Jesus said “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” This message alone should prove to you that you must be Christ like. Of course we are all sinners but being a Christian means you choose to live life without sin. Therefore you must act for salvation. I am so tired of hearing Christian say that all you need to do is believe in Jesus.
Tbh. It's both. It is a gift, but you are to follow after. If you are not given the gift you don't have any way to follow after Christ and cease from sin. It is His Spirit that gives us the freedom from bondage. So even in the end, it is not your own works. Infact, you are His handiwork not your own. [Eph 2:8-10 KJV] 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
@@Tyfron I agree full hearted. Everything comes from God therefore you are doing his work not your work. It is still WORK that leads to salvation not faith alone in my beliefs.
She believes she can pay for her sins? No, she can't. We're sinful and only Lord Jesus is sinless. No one is good except Lord Jesus. God won't accept our sacrifice or goodness to delete our sins because only Lord Jesus is upto God's standards. Lord is the Lamb of God,and He is sacrificed Himself to purchase us ,by God through His Blood sacrifice. Thank you Lord Jesus my beloved saviour and Blessed Hope. Amen
That’s what every false religion believes…that we have to work to get to heaven, pretty much saying that the perfect sacrifice of Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection isn’t sufficient. What could we possibly offer the Creator/One True Holy God? Anyone that thinks this way, must think quite highly of themselves. Jesus said It is finished! Therefore I shout it from the mountaintops, submit and bow now to Jesus Christ, as your Lord and Savior. You can do nothing to earn your salvation or add to the atoning blood Christ shed for us. 🙏💕
@@lewlewbelle7275no , in every religion there is exteme ideas; first the way you say it islam says you are by default deserve to go to hell, even if some so called Muslims say that, i dont believe in this kind of islam, second the way you say it it feels to me you say we are unworthy to reach heaven without Jesus paying for you then this is to me just lack of self dignity, not thinking highly of oneself, you don't need to be as perfect as Jesus to deserve heaven, god has given a piece of his/her soul to every human and for each human a different tribute to encounter , different strength and weaknesses, so everyone is different,you cannot always compare but, as somebody who has the soul of god you may still be able to win your tributes and do help otheres within your abilities, and go to heaven, that is human being for having god soul can be and is great but for that very reason can become a gread evil, and you can still be infinite but finite and tiny compared to another infinity like comparing god to a good human being, like the infinite subset of integers compared to the much bigger infinit set of rational numbers, what i mean you can still be worthy and good without thinking too highly of yourself
@@johnconor7703 the Bible says none are good but God, The heart is more deceitful than all else And is desperately sick; Who can understand it? Jeremiah 17:9. Every one of us deserves death and hell, that’s what makes Jesus’ death burial and resurrection that much more precious, because He has provided a way to bridge that gap to God and is the only One that can declare us righteous through Him and give us eternal life.

I think faith in Jesus should be sincere not just superficial belief. But following Jesus' teachings is something that is done not in order to be saved, but because you already are saved.

Great video. Great example for all Christians. There are Judaizers among us who claim we must keep the Laws of Moses, feast days, sabbaths, sacrifices. This denies Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross. Don't fall for it. Salvation is by grace, through faith in Jesus. 🙏🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻
"Stop preaching the gospel (and the need for the gospel)!" "OK, so, do you see how this gospel I'm preaching sheds light on this present situation..." Love it :)

There are two things about salvation that go together that must be rejected as well. Salvation of faith alone (another false doctrine) and the Sinner’s Prayer. I’ve already just explained why at this point “faith alone” is not sufficient based on God’s Plan of Salvation. The “Sinner’s Prayer” is neither biblical nor scriptural and none of the passages used to support “sinner’s prayer” salvation work as advertised. The Reformers know that “Faith Only” just does not make any sense either Biblically or practically. Here is the problem: It is just too vague. When exactly is one saved? Don’t say, “at the point of faith alone without any works of obedience.” No one really believes that and that is NOT what the Bible teaches! There has to be some point of practical reference in which (at which) one goes from “being unsaved to being saved.” Where is that point in real time? Exactly when does the “new life in Christ” begin? With “Faith Only” there is just no real perceived point that is easily clarified in the minds of men. It is just too vague and nebulous. (“Faith Only” is a great sounding doctrine, but it is a lousy one when it comes to practice and practical implementation.) So, enter the “Sinner’s Prayer”! Now we have an actual moment, a line of demarcation, a dividing point from the old life to the new life. A time that can be specifically identified (and remembered) when someone “gets saved.” The Sinner’s Prayer is only the result of the doctrines and commandments of men, not God. It is a sorry attempt to fix the defective doctrine of “Faith Only.” What is more, it does not do a very good job of it. Saying the sinner’s prayer is simply a way of declaring to God that you are relying on Jesus Christ as your Savior. There are no "magical" words that result in salvation. It is NOT faith alone, but faith working in harmony with working obedience. You see when Paul talked about faith in Romans, his concept of faith was one that worked. He started the letter with, “Through Him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith among all nations for His name, among whom you also are the called of Jesus Christ” (Romans 1:5-6). And he ended his letter on the same note. “Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began but now has been made manifest, and by the prophetic scriptures has been made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith” (Romans 16:25-26). The Bible doesn’t teach that salvation is exclusively by faith. That was a doctrine that originated with men. The Bible has always taught that salvation occurs when faith is joined by obedient action to the commands of God.
"O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

Exactly, in every other religion you pay... So basically every other religious system, is just that, a system of chores to pay a debt of sin that ironically no man can pay

You got it half right, believe in Jesus and do His word. God give his Grace so we can do His word. Always strive to to do better each day and persevere to the end. My wish is to hear “Well done good and faithful servant “ when I stand before Jesus on the last day. I pray that all will come to pickup their cross daily and follow Jesus.

The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God. 1st Corithians 1:18
For the Word (logos) of the cross is indeed foolishness to those who are perishing, but to those of us who are being saved, it is the power of God. For it has been written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will bring to naught." Where is the wise, the scribe, the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who are believing. (1 Corinthians 1:18-21)
James 2:14-18 There is belief, and there are works or actions that we choose to make. Actions and comportment, according to our beliefs is faith. Faith is belief put to action.
Amen! Keep preaching, our World is upside down, but only for some people, others, are at peace, not because of unawarness, but by faith, according to the promises of God's word!

Well, it’s not by Works alone, because we cannot by ourselves reach out to God, but it’s not by Grace alone either, because God is so merciful, just and loving, that He wants us to participate in our salvation.
Here are a few additional thoughts and scriptures on this topic that I hope you find helpful:
"Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit."
-Titus 3:5
"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
- Romans 5:8
"The Gospel is this: We are more sinful and flawed in ourselves than we ever dared believe, yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope...Religion says, 'I obey; therefore I’m accepted.' Christianity says, 'I’m accepted; therefore I obey.'"
-Timothy Keller (1950-2023)
"The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us."
- C.S. Lewis (1898-1963)
"What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them 'Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,' but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." - James 2:14-17
"Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way? For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also." - James: 25-26
We are all saved through faith, and our works flow with the intent of love. Protestantism gets this wrong everywhere. The one true church, the Catholic Church, understands this.
Amen and. Jesus is Savior and king of my husband.
@@Christendom88 James was saying that you can't have true faith WITHOUT works to show you are truly repentant. Paul said I will show you my faith BY my works, yet also says by works you cannot be saved. We do works, guided by the Holy Spirit, because we are grateful for what Jesus has done for us on the cross. Not for our own gain, and what we can do, but to further the kingdom of God.
@@Christendom88 Your verse are also true. Though John 14:6 says:
“6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
This doesn’t mean that we stop doing works it means that we start following Him so that we just naturally do those works out of love not struggle to follow some rules. It is a relationship He is looking for first and foremost.
1 Samuel 15:22 says “22 And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.”
Jesus wants us to obey and follow Him so that He can help us because He knows doing it on our own (sacrifice) we WILL fail. He was the endall sacrifice so all we need to do is follow Him and He will guide us to do what He may.
After all, Proverbs 3:5-6 says:
“5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”
To just do works without having a relationship with Him and having Him guide you is “leaning on your own understanding” of what needs to be done.

If we had to earn our salvation, our way to heaven, then we wouldn't have a snowball's chance. Thank you Lord God for your mercy.
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
@@JTNugget, Do you even understand what you are quoting?
@@reynaldodavid2913Jo Tell me how I've quoted in error
@@JTNugget, I did not say you quoted it in error, I was asking you if you understand what you quote because it seems not appropriate to refute the Calvinistic concept of salvation?
@@JTNugget yeah “faith” faith in what? Faith in our salvation through the blood of Jesus is why we do works out of that same faith, not by your works you will be saved. We cannot nor will ever be saved by anything we can do to earn it. It’s a gift to be received to believe that any human being without the blood sacrifice of Jesus can be good is beyond crazy. None of us can name one perfect human being except Jesus right? Who do we think we are that we can save ourselves?
God is working in the midst of this confrontation.
Amen!

You want to believe him because his method is easy and welcoming, but what if she’s correct and we do need to work at salvation instead of simply believing?
@@johnjeffreys6440good thing we don’t because NONE of us can do enough works to overcome our sinful nature. What your expressing is prideful look at me look at me look what I did. God don’t care how much God you do in order to earn something. God cares about how you act because you feel gratitude.
@@DangerousWordsPodcast well a lot of ardent Christians on YT say that we do need to repent and get sin out of our lives.
I hope it is as easy as simply believing, but there is a lot of evidence to the contrary, even in the Bible.

This is the difference between true Christianity and every other religion on earth. Christians believe that we are not worthy of forgiveness, and eternal life and that we need a savior, a sacrifice to satisfy the wrath of a just God. Only Christ could pay the wages of sin for us.
Every other religion believes you can somehow earn your way into heaven.
If you don't have to earn your way into heaven, what's the purpose of having hell and commandments?
Why we not worth the forgiveness? If my father kill a man will I punish for his crime ? so the god from your perspective not fair .. in our religion god forgive adam for his slip (it’s not sin the lord say ) and instead blame adam , God blame the Satan ( The one how manipulate people to make sins and we can’t see him ) ..

Ephesians 2: 8-9 "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast."
Amen
So does that mean , we should continue in sin and not do works like preaching the gospel because we have or will be saved by just having faith in God? Please explain
@Victorsesan3578 no, of course not. What Paul is saying here is that the only reasonnwhybwe believe is because of the faith we have given to us by our Father in heaven. A free gift. When we heard the Good News of the Gospel, we repented. In other words we felt ashamed of living on our own strength and understanding of life. Now that we have come to the light it is God's Holy Spirit that brings us to glory and glory. Being transformed the renewing of our mind. Good works won't save you. Good works us the evidence of God's seal.on His people. That's what Ephesians 2:8-9. But, remember Paul also explains that we're still in the body. Our flesh has sinful desires, therefore; our spirit is at war with the flesh. Which one are you feeding the most? At the end we are the branches and Jesus is the vine, without Him, we could do nothing. So, the fact that you are saved and doing good works from the Holy Spirit is all because of Him who died for you. Like Paul said to the church of corinthians, if anyone is gonna boast, let them boast in the Lord!
@@Victorsesan3578haha no of course not what made you take that leap in logic?
@@cinemma5834 the preacher in the video also share that sentiment of the simple belief in jesus gains you access to forgiveness of all your sin, even if you continue to live a life full of sin.

So how can humans know which is true? How can we know is Jesus necessary for salvation or God can forgive?
@goranmilic442 that's a MASSIVE question. And a dang good question as well. 1st. Read the 4 Gospels. They're the equivalent to 120 pages or so. If thats too much, start with the Gospel of John. Decide for yourself, if Jesus is someone you want to trust and put your faith in. I would say start there. When reading them think... what were His ethical Teachings? What were His moral teachings? Also. Check out the 10 Commandments. The 1st 4 are how we are to treat God. The last 6 are how we are to treat each other. God bless. Ask more questions of ya have them.

She believes in Allah not in this Christian stuff
I think Koran in fact says in one of its sura that for a muslim transgression "people of the Book" (Jews and Christians) will pay lol. So in a way she won't be the only one paying for her sins, even according to the very core teaching of hers - they still need Christians and Jews
How convenient for a muslim
Not in the Quran but certainly in the Sunnah hadiths does it mention that a Jew/Christian will pay the penalties of a Muslim, which is obviously corrupt as they are punished for sins they didn't commit
The Koran is not talking about paying for sins, they didn't even have that concept. They used to literally make Jews and Christians pay a tax to not be Muslims. If they couldn't pay, they would be enslaved or killed.
@@SimonASNGno there are references if not in the Quran then the Hadiths that mention a Jew or Christian will replace those (Muslums) in hell when they enter Heaven.
Wow, I didn't know that. But she sure should have. Lol she would have to live perfectly and still need Christians and Jews to also obtain salvation by works. So if it's not based on her works alone, but also other's works, there really isn't a chance of salvation apart from Christ. Still funny how she says she "loves Jesus more..." When she doesn't even put her trust in Him.
"faith without works is dead"
Well said.
Yes we need both, not just one or the other
Quoting random verses without context doesn't help anyone. I'm more guilty than anyone of doing it as a young Christian, but we have to seek truth and wisdom according to God, and from God, not to profess a narrative for our egos.
@@1John3.8 If you disagree, then at least know that if other people say you are wrong, there is a very, very good reason.
”For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast.“
Ephesians 2:8-9
Then it is the next verse that puts works in context.
”For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“
Ephesians 2:10
Works, for the Christian, are a thank you to God for already saving them. Christians WILL do good works. They are necessary. But good works themselves do not save us or anyone. Only Jesus saves.
Beautiful, clear message. Only God can pay the price for sin.
Thank you Lord Jesus, God incarnate. ❤
"O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." 1 Corinthians 55-88
I am a “Christian” and I disapprove of this. Jesus said “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
This message alone should prove to you that you must be Christ like. Of course we are all sinners but being a Christian means you choose to live life without sin. Therefore you must act for salvation.
I am so tired of hearing Christian say that all you need to do is believe in Jesus.
Tbh. It's both. It is a gift, but you are to follow after. If you are not given the gift you don't have any way to follow after Christ and cease from sin. It is His Spirit that gives us the freedom from bondage. So even in the end, it is not your own works. Infact, you are His handiwork not your own.
[Eph 2:8-10 KJV] 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
@@Tyfron I agree full hearted. Everything comes from God therefore you are doing his work not your work. It is still WORK that leads to salvation not faith alone in my beliefs.
Amen to that 🙏🙏🙏, Pastor 🙏
She believes she can pay for her sins? No, she can't. We're sinful and only Lord Jesus is sinless. No one is good except Lord Jesus.
God won't accept our sacrifice or goodness to delete our sins because only Lord Jesus is upto God's standards. Lord is the Lamb of God,and He is sacrificed Himself to purchase us ,by God through His Blood sacrifice.
Thank you Lord Jesus my beloved saviour and Blessed Hope.
Amen
She can definitely pay for her sins, it'll just be getting cast into the lake of fire. Only Jesus can save us from that fate.
That’s what every false religion believes…that we have to work to get to heaven, pretty much saying that the perfect sacrifice of Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection isn’t sufficient. What could we possibly offer the Creator/One True Holy God? Anyone that thinks this way, must think quite highly of themselves. Jesus said It is finished! Therefore I shout it from the mountaintops, submit and bow now to Jesus Christ, as your Lord and Savior. You can do nothing to earn your salvation or add to the atoning blood Christ shed for us. 🙏💕
Each will die for their own sin
@@lewlewbelle7275no , in every religion there is exteme ideas; first the way you say it islam says you are by default deserve to go to hell, even if some so called Muslims say that, i dont believe in this kind of islam, second the way you say it it feels to me you say we are unworthy to reach heaven without Jesus paying for you then this is to me just lack of self dignity, not thinking highly of oneself, you don't need to be as perfect as Jesus to deserve heaven, god has given a piece of his/her soul to every human and for each human a different tribute to encounter , different strength and weaknesses, so everyone is different,you cannot always compare but, as somebody who has the soul of god you may still be able to win your tributes and do help otheres within your abilities, and go to heaven, that is human being for having god soul can be and is great but for that very reason can become a gread evil, and you can still be infinite but finite and tiny compared to another infinity like comparing god to a good human being, like the infinite subset of integers compared to the much bigger infinit set of rational numbers, what i mean you can still be worthy and good without thinking too highly of yourself
@@johnconor7703 the Bible says none are good but God, The heart is more deceitful than all else And is desperately sick; Who can understand it? Jeremiah 17:9. Every one of us deserves death and hell, that’s what makes Jesus’ death burial and resurrection that much more precious, because He has provided a way to bridge that gap to God and is the only One that can declare us righteous through Him and give us eternal life.

There are two things about salvation that go together that must be rejected as well. Salvation of faith alone (another false doctrine) and the Sinner’s Prayer. I’ve already just explained why at this point “faith alone” is not sufficient based on God’s Plan of Salvation. The “Sinner’s Prayer” is neither biblical nor scriptural and none of the passages used to support “sinner’s prayer” salvation work as advertised. The Reformers know that “Faith Only” just does not make any sense either Biblically or practically. Here is the problem: It is just too vague. When exactly is one saved? Don’t say, “at the point of faith alone without any works of obedience.” No one really believes that and that is NOT what the Bible teaches! There has to be some point of practical reference in which (at which) one goes from “being unsaved to being saved.” Where is that point in real time? Exactly when does the “new life in Christ” begin? With “Faith Only” there is just no real perceived point that is easily clarified in the minds of men. It is just too vague and nebulous. (“Faith Only” is a great sounding doctrine, but it is a lousy one when it comes to practice and practical implementation.)
So, enter the “Sinner’s Prayer”! Now we have an actual moment, a line of demarcation, a dividing point from the old life to the new life. A time that can be specifically identified (and remembered) when someone “gets saved.” The Sinner’s Prayer is only the result of the doctrines and commandments of men, not God. It is a sorry attempt to fix the defective doctrine of “Faith Only.” What is more, it does not do a very good job of it. Saying the sinner’s prayer is simply a way of declaring to God that you are relying on Jesus Christ as your Savior. There are no "magical" words that result in salvation.
It is NOT faith alone, but faith working in harmony with working obedience. You see when Paul talked about faith in Romans, his concept of faith was one that worked. He started the letter with, “Through Him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith among all nations for His name, among whom you also are the called of Jesus Christ” (Romans 1:5-6). And he ended his letter on the same note. “Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began but now has been made manifest, and by the prophetic scriptures has been made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith” (Romans 16:25-26). The Bible doesn’t teach that salvation is exclusively by faith. That was a doctrine that originated with men. The Bible has always taught that salvation occurs when faith is joined by obedient action to the commands of God.
What a clear and direct statement of the gospel
Lord please help us not to be comprimised Christians. In Jesus' name
Kudos to this lady. Why? Because she is clear on how salvation is obtained according to her religion.
I love brother Todd Friel. Bless him.

You got it half right, believe in Jesus and do His word. God give his Grace so we can do His word. Always strive to to do better each day and persevere to the end. My wish is to hear “Well done good and faithful servant “ when I stand before Jesus on the last day.
I pray that all will come to pickup their cross daily and follow Jesus.
"O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." 1 Corinthians 55-88
I PRAISE GOD FOR THIS PREACHER, BEING AWESOME IN THE WAY HE EXPLAINED THIS & I BELIEVE SHE SHOULD APOLOGIZE FOR CALLING HIM STUPID !!!
The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God. 1st Corithians 1:18
The "good" we do it's like filthy rags. We need Christ's redemption to be in good standing with God.
For the Word (logos) of the cross is indeed foolishness to those who are perishing, but to those of us who are being saved, it is the power of God. For it has been written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will bring to naught." Where is the wise, the scribe, the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who are believing.
(1 Corinthians 1:18-21)
James 2:14-18
There is belief, and there are works or actions that we choose to make. Actions and comportment, according to our beliefs is faith. Faith is belief put to action.
Our works is exchange in fortune in heaven but by believing and repenting is the way to go there
I’m catholic and salvation is by faith and by works not by faith alone, works should be the result of faith
Amen! Keep preaching, our World is upside down, but only for some people, others, are at peace, not because of unawarness, but by faith, according to the promises of God's word!
"O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." 1 Corinthians 55-88
Well, it’s not by Works alone, because we cannot by ourselves reach out to God, but it’s not by Grace alone either, because God is so merciful, just and loving, that He wants us to participate in our salvation.
He laid the scriptures on her, and the argument was over.
She wouldn’t dare act so stridently in a Middle Eastern country.
