I ask you to please explain yourself better. The last post you directed to me seemed like a jumbled mess..
I want to reiterate a point....
You believe that faith alone saves
John 12:24-43 - Nevertheless many even of the rulers BELIEVED in him, but b/c of the Pharisees they were not confessing him, for fear that they would be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God.
Just because they confess not does not mean they will get to go to Hell
loveing the world ..........believers do that know in 1John 2:12-17
look at peter denieing Jesus three times...he knew he would be tempted and he would fail.....still the Lord had him as an aspostel
God is faithful eventhough we are not
James 2:19 - You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder.
So I have a question for you. How can you possibly harmonize your beliefs with these scriptures? John 12:42 says "For Many of the Rulers BELIEVED in him." How can you get around it? The rulers believed! They had Faith! BUT THEY WERE NOT SAVED!!!!!!!!!! James 2:19 tells us that "the demons also believe, and shudder." The demons believe; However, they are not saved!
Job 38:7 The son of God got to see visally the making of the universe but that was not enough for them to believe that he was all powerful since they were powerful also...one third of the angels followed Satan in Isaiah 14:12-17 in trying to ascended above God......but stopped in there tracks
