“Do you understand that God is not going to apply judgment upon you because of what Jesus did if you do two things...keep his commandments and believe in his ability to give you grace?” I think you have that reversed ... in fact I know you do, and that is precisely how the Mormonism apologists at FR have posed salvation, as something earned by keeping His commandments so then you can receive His grace. What is the commandment of God that men must do to be saved? ... The leaders in Jesus’ presence asked Him that , and He responded in what way? Do you know? The order you offer your instructions is a clue as to what your understanding of The Grace of God in Christ really is. You see, we Christians believe you believe, THEN God cleanses and send sHis Holy Spirit to be in you the Hope of Glory. And your old nature continues to war with your new nature so long as you live in the flesh you occupy. If you could keep His Commandments without His Spirit being the righteousness within, then Jesus would not have died on the Cross for your sina nd mine. He took you sin nature to that Cross. And try to get a clearer picture of what happened in the Garden. You’re tiptoeing mighty close to the heresies of Mormonism.
Go read your Bible, MHGinTN...and don’t just read it. Study it and let God teach you what it says. You will be a much better person for it, I guarantee! YOU took the words right out my mouth and you don’t even freaking know it! Obviously it’s just words to you that you don’t even understand.
