Thanks for quoting it anyway, TMK. It sums the whole big argument up in one short line. Books have been written on both sides of the issue, but the plain simple truth of the whole matter is there.Speaking of works ... the entire book "The Acts of the Apostles" could very well be translated: "The Works of the Apostles". Their faith produced works; therefore, we have the New Testament to read.

We are going to close this thread, I believe we have answered the questions clearly in this thread and trust everything to God.To make it crystal clear I believe this statement of faith: https://img.sermonindex.net/fellowships/guidingprinciples.pdfChristianity without the Holy Spirit is not Christianity at all. Once we believe in Christ we then receive the Spirit by faith. And receive sonship from God. We therefore do not act, walk, talk like others in the world we are a new creation.This thread is being locked.
