How in your words do you understand saving Faith is fulfilled?

Could you elaborate in your words what you mean by"Faith alone".

Technically, the salvation journey starts with Grace. Or I could keep going back and show where it could have started before Grace. Our discussion and for the sake of sidetracking the topic, the salvation process for us begins when the Father calls us out to respond to that call.

Nobody comes to Christ unless the Father draws or calls them. The Father initiates the salvation process with that call, not taking Grace into account. We respond with repentance, which is a turning from our way to His way in our mind. We then respond by taking the first step of Faith or...

I understand that sanctification is the result of us responding in faith (pisteuo) . Pisteuo or saving Faith is our response to the call of the Father where God initiates the salvation process. Saving Faith or pisteuo in the Greek dictionary is ," a personal surrender to Him and a life...

Do you agree that sanctification comes by the Spirit of Christ, through Faith. Faith being a personal surrender to Him and a life inspired by such surrender?

I take these topics seriously. My apologies.

Then act like it. I replied to your question, respond.

That remains to be seen.

Okay, sorry for the delay. The question is, who is responsible for our sanctification? Sanctification defined is, being separated from our sinful natures, to God. Who is responsible for that? The Spirit of Christ does the sanctifying as a response to a person fulfilling Faith in Christ...

Could I jump in here without reading all 19 pages and ask the question? Has anyone correctly defined sanctification? And what is that definition?

For we who are called, it's all about "Faith". Salvation is by Grace,"through Faith". Our English word Faith, comes from the Greek word"Pistis," a noun used 244 times in the NT. That word Pistis has a corresponding verb, "pisteuo", a verb used 248 times in the NT. The word "Faith" in the...

I knew that, and is the reason for me sharing it with you. If you have the desire to know more just ask.

All of God's deeper truths are paradoxical. Those who have and are fulfilling pisteuo daily are theathered to this world in our earthly bodies, but at the same time seated in heavenly places. Both happening at the same exact time. But this paradoxical truth is not fulfilled by " believers"...

It's cool druth. Sometimes you gotta know when to just listen. The fact you didn't have the desire to do that tells me your not ready yet.

I look for certain kinds of people. And I don't find them very often, but they stick out to me because they ask the right question. Your OP, though the use of pistos instead of Pistis or pisteuo kind of spoke for itself, was the right question! Since you don't seem to be able to see the...

Okay, being honest with me, how have you learned the understandings your presenting to me?

I'm trying to make a point first. And to be honest, I'm not sure your following. This is my point. Pistis is the Greek word and noun where we get our English word Faith. The corresponding verb to the noun Pistis is pisteuo. The English language doesn't have a corresponding verb to the noun...

Acts, based upon a Belief, sustained by confidence, or pisteuo in the Greek look like this. When you went to sleep last night. Did you check to make sure there was enough oxygen in the room for the night? No, you fulfilled an act, got in bed, based upon a Belief, there was sufficient oxygen...

Let me ask you. How many acts, based upon a belief, sustained by confidence do you fulfill in one days time?
