Whatever stick figures and cartoons you wish to draw here, let it be known that the believers in the grace of Jesus Christ, alone, need no affiliation with organizations of any type to be children of the King. The Lord of Heaven and Earth, the One True God of Israel has adopted us into the His family, not by our actions, behaviors, confessions, or even internal claims of faith, but rather because God, acting from all eternity past, laid hold of us and redeemed us according to His kind intentions. Such predestination and election is the message of the Bible, not this five-part club. You are welcome to parade it around, but at the judgment seat, the believers will be clothed in the righteousness of Christ...not their memberships.

Our faith and works proceeds from our rescue, not precedes our rescue. There is a mile between our theology and that of Rome’s...and we believe they are going to be weeping without end when this is over. Repent Rome, if you can.

James 2:24 See how person is justified by works and not by faith alone. Paul in his letters is talking about the temple works that are going on as he wrote those letters. The animal sacrifices and such which is not happening in today’s world any more.The old testament works with the 613 mosaic laws are done. But christian works are explained in The book of james.
