The average modern evangelical knows a lot more about what pop psychology thinks about man's problems than what God's word says about man's problems; he knows a lot more about what his friends and neighbors think about morality than what the Creator says about morality. And so, there is a wide chasm between what this kind of Christian says and what he does. He has not studied the Bible and does not know the truth so well illustrated by Abraham: faith without works is dead being by itself. thats funny - Christ and the repentant thief on the Cross might disagree - he found salvation with ONLY a profession of faith
Now if he were to live a while after professing, sure - works as a fruit should have been demonstrable - but its not conditional to salvation
Im in agreement with you - this is a hit piece and consistent with the tack that to build up "ours" we must tear down "thiers"

thats funny - Christ and the repentant thief on the Cross might disagree - he found salvation with ONLY a profession of faith I think the thief found salvation because he recognized that he and the other thief deserved what they were getting, because of how they had lived their lives. I think it was the repentant behavior that saved him.
