So you still cannot explain how one can be saved by faith alone and still be blocked from the kingdom of God because of sin. You can obfuscate, dance around it, and try to distract with other issues all you want, but your inability to to explain this contradiction illustrates that the idea of salvation by faith alone is contrary to Scripture.

True, I can't - but this fella said...

1 John 5:18 ESV

We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.


I think we both agree that a 'believer' does NOT magically become a person who NEVER sins again.

Thus the question becomes, "How much sin can a Christian do after he believes, before God says - "Ok buster: that's enough. No heaven for you!"


I think a math multiplication staement might have an ability to shed some light on this subject...

70 X 7
