yeah so a lot of ppl think hteyre in good standing with Christ, when really theyre not.

Yeah, I'm glad we're not like them, huh?

 

[jckstraw72]

just to be clear, i wasnt making a judgment call on who does and doesnt know Christ, including myself, just saying ... a lot of ppl are deceived.

And they were pretty sure of their salvation till they came face to face with Christ.

And that's my point we can't be sure of our salvation till after we die.

Peace

so in your tradition, the Saints last name is included ?
thats interesting...why ?

 

[Rick Otto]

Whaddaya mean, "your tradition"? MY tradition? I have a tradition of not being very traditional.
And why not last names? Saints had 'em, why not use 'em?

And that's my point we can't be sure of our salvation till after we die.

Scripture seems to indicate the contrary, doesn't it?
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

And what about John 10:27-28 where Jesus said His sheep will never perish; John 6:47 where salvation is described as everlasting life; Romans 8:1 where it is said we have passed out of judgment; 1 Corinthians 10:13 where God promises to never let us be tempted beyond what we can handle; and Phil. 1:6 where God is the one being faithful to perfect us until the day of Jesus’ return.

not traditional, thats a tradition

middle names are often the most interesting, and often provide an essential rhythmic bridge between the first and last. Its just plain elitism to excise the middle !

We can have assurance.

 

[PassthePeace1]

Not me! NOPE, never have, NEVER will!

Never, say never....cuz...The bigger they are, the harder they fall!

 

[Benedicta00]

Welcome back Pam.

 

[Benedicta00]

We can have assurance.

Yes we can, as long as we ourselves do not reject and choose sin over grace...

 

[simonthezealot]

Are you suggesting I diet?
No fall here!
Haven't seen you post in a while hope all is good with you?
Peace,
Simon

 

[mont974x4]

Yes we can, as long as we ourselves do not reject and choose sin over grace...

I am assured that He is faithful to forgive me when I repent. I am assured that when He said I just need to beleive in Him to be saved that I am. I am assured that I don't have to be perfect to be saved and that He will finish the work He started in me.

 

[PassthePeace1]

Welcome back Pam.

Thanks.

 

[PassthePeace1]

No, just a prayer to the Holy Spirit and ask Him to lead you into the fullness of Truth.

Haven't seen you post in a while hope all is good with you?
Peace,
Simon

Thanks, wish I could say "yeah", but in all honesty I have been better... Having some health issues, prayers welcome...

Peace be with you...Pam

Christ IS the fullness of truth my sister, and His spirit dwells in me and makes intercessions according to God's will.

I will say extra prayers for you my sister! remember Nahum 1:7
The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him.
His servant,
simon

Are you suggesting that we don't have the fullness of the truth because we're not rc's?

 

[simonthezealot]

Of course she is!
Sad isn't it!

 

[mont974x4]

That is what I suspect, but I would like it to be admitted plainly.

I asked the question and I have no intention of reporting it, or taking any official action, if you answer is yes.

 

[jckstraw72]

well when there are two conflicting beliefs they cant BOTH be correct ...
