The Scripture wouldn’t give us lesson after lesson of forgiveness of sin and perseverance if nothing were required of us but to say “Lord, Lord” once, so these 0% percenters haven’t read the Scripture very closely, if at all.

We not only read the scriptures 'very' closely, we believe what we read...And we divide it like it says...

Eph 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

We do the good works...NOT because we have to as the previous verses clearly show, but because God put it into our hearts to want to do good works for Him, for God's glory, not ours...

If we do good works to gain salvation, we'll be denyed salvation...And that's the difference between you guys and us...

Amen. They also believe infant baptism is salvific. I fear that may cause some to miss heaven.
