I got a better question . How can many Christians spend a lifetime in the word yet refuse the gospel as preached by Paul ? Look at poor departed John MacArthur. Lordship salvation preaching since 1968 . A wolf . A liar . Never did quite believe. It breaks my heart . Folks entangled in legalism are drowning . That's why I post Truth . ✝️🙏

Sharing a reply 1. With due respect. Grace and faith is different. Grace is solely from the Lord. Faith is from man that needs good work. Thank you for emphasizing Ephesian 1. You have highlighted " chosen before the foundation of the world.." , but then you have NOT included "chosen to be holy. " Ephesians 1: 4-5 💕For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be HOLY and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ It was primarily said, "BEFORE the creation of the world that God had chosen us TO BE HOLY." How can someone be in the identity of "holy" if in a moment or in a continued sinning? The definition of GOOD WORK is not only the ability to share blessing and talent but FOREMOSTLY HAD TURNED AWAY FROM SIN. That is primarily the identity who had done good work before even to overflow blessings to others. So it means that God purposed before the creation of the world that those who are predestined for adoption to sonship thru Jesus Christ are those who had done good work as a result of grace that had been bestowed to those who believed, those who continue to persevere to be holy till the end. As the Scripture had said , " Be holy, as you Father in heaven is holy," then the good works will come from man as a result of training seen from the pioneer who had shown a full obedience to Father in heaven, our Lord Yeshua, Jesus Christ. Do not defend the continued homosexuality as a result of grace to continue to abound, but then in continued sinning, there is no forgiveness in the end as seen in Revelation 21:8. Homosexuality is not primarily a sin against humanity but an abomination to God and those who defend homosexuality had the mind of Satan. Homosexuality is primarily a sin against God, a sin DEFYING THE WISDOM and the AUTHORITY OF GOD in creation, DEFYING THE NATURE OF HIS creation. That is why it is called an abomination to God necessary for punishment for it is a direct DISOBEDIENCE to the authority of God. My primary purpose of sending these messages is following orders in accordance to my belief and what is expected of me as a believer. There is NO single hint of hatred in my heart for gays for Iam reiterating my belief in the Scripture. You can also reiterate as what your heart told for primarily the judgment of mankind is thru the intensions of each hearts. If you feel judged , then it is not me who judged you but the Word of God.If you are confident in your belief, you dont need to be angry, for the judgment for each servant is only in the hands of their master. 2. The Scripture is very clear in the definition of faith. Philippians 3: 10-11 💕but that which comes through faith in Christ, the RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD that depends on FAITH — that I may (1)KNOW him and the power of his resurrection, and may (2)SHARE his sufferings, (3)BECOMING like him in his death, that by any means possible I may (4)ATTAIN the resurrection from the dead. When we say "faith" is not only the beginning of knowing or believing but it ends to the end goal of faith to the resurrected body together with the Lord. And the Scripture provides the whole interpretation of faith in Philippians 3. Inside the faith, there is good works in "share his sufferings and becoming like him in his death." And good works is not only sharing blessing or talents, but primarily TURNING AWAY FROM SIN, that is primarily the good works. This coincide in James 2:17 💕So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is DEAD. James 2: 20 💕Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is USELESS? For how can there be faith if it is dead? How can there be faith if it is useless? So there is no faith at all when it is dead and useless. But faith will only be called faith if there is inside good works or those who persevere or turned away from sin, doing what is right, giving glory to God. There is a difference between a believer and a non believer with regards to good works. With non believer of Yeshua, doing good works consequenced him nothing. For there is no faith where grace would come in..Good works provides nothing to salvation for salvation comes only from the Lord. Ephesians 2: 8-10 💕For it is by grace you have been saved, THROUGH faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God PREPARED in advance for us to do. And those who received grace are doing good works for these had been prepared in advance even before the foundation of the world. For believers of Yeshua, doing good works is called faith ( belief and good works = faith). For faith without good works is dead and there is no sense of faith when it is called useless. So Philippians 3 provide the best definition of faith where good works is inside of it. So I do believe that when we say faith, it must be from the Scripture, from beginning to last. This is what needed. Simple as this A. Grace from God + no faith( unbelievers) = man is not saved B. Grace from God + faith( without good works)= man is not saved for faith is dead for " For it is by grace you have been saved, through FAITH "These are those believers who continue in sinning. C. Grace from God +faith ( with works) = man is saved " So in short, all is needed, we only must knew what comes first, and that is grace. Salvation is already available thru Jesus Christ. If the man did not believed this, is the man s

I can't see why Jews need to accept Jesus. Why is the need to accept jesus relevant? Makes no sense to me. And I was brought up in a Catholic home by my basque grandmother.
