PETRONSKI: Another false tradition of men.
And again you display a sad lack of Scriptural awareness...
Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." -- Ephesians 2:8-10"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
We are saved "by grace through faith." This grace is not of ourselves, "it is a gift from God."
Quite the opposite, actually. I am displaying a joyful rejection of your own personal interpretation of Scripture.
Yes, you have misinterpreted that Scripture over and over again. But faith without works is dead.
What salvation be granted you for a dead faith?
Don’t know how it could be any clearer, but they sure do miss it don’t they?
