Kind puts God’s salvation similar to instant pudding or jello. Just add milk and water stir till dissolved, put in refrigerator and now you have Pudding or jello.

where is God’s Grace?

antinomianism has been considered a heresy for many many ages.

But that is the problem with today’s Christianity rehashing previous heresies as church doctrine.

what type of fruit is antinominaism bearing?

what happens to the young christian when the babe comes into trial and tribulation - the christian walks away because never grounded in God’s Grace.

Get ready for His Kingdom. If you want to be great in His Kingdom that is coming, learn to be a servant of all. Getting saved by God’s grace is only the beginning. The worst thing that I can possibly imagine, other than spending an eternity in hell, is for the King to tell me that I squandered His gifts and am not fit to rule with Him in His Kingdom. Those believers who have not grown in their faith since their initial salvaton will simply watch with tearful eyes and grinding teeth while the faithful work with the King to rule in the millennial kingdom.

To follow the teachings of Jesus, to do good for all men, to put other people first, to love God, and try to follow in the teachings of Jesus, is the purpose of your life. Life is not about you, As the Bible says” I knew you before you were Born”, And “ I knew you when you were in your Mothers womb”. It is God’s plan for your life that is important, not what you want to do.

We have to be careful not to make our salvation anything but grace .

I did not repent and come to Christ because I want to rule in His Kingdom..I came because His Spirit drew me to Him and made me his child. I love Him and want to toss my crowns at His feet.. Like the prodigal son I will clean the barn with great joy..

God is not impressed with OUR WORKS, He does take glory in HIS work IN US. Any work that does not flow from Him is nothing more than filthy rags..

A child can not make himself GROW UP , that is a natural function of his dna , our spiritual growth is a natural outcome of our new "spiritual DNA"..because with it comes an incredible love of God and His word.. we will desire to know Him more and to please our dad.. and dad will place those things in our hearts

Christ is the author and finisher of our faith..

Paul’s point in Romans 7 is that following his Salvation (belief in Christ Jesus) he still sinned. All sin and fall short of the glory of God. That is why eternal life is a gift from the Father. You can’t do it on your own because you sin. It has nothing to do with how you live your life. Not a thing.

“Sin no more” possible? Not for me. But ‘twas Jesus recommendation. Guess we’re supposed to try.

Jesus said that you will.

I didn't come to faith in Christ in order to rule in his kingdom either. But he said that we will. And if we wish to, we must learn to be servants.

But as to salvation by grace, definitely, it is by God's grace alone, not by our works that we are saved. We are saved from the penalty of our sin. But what are we saved to? We are saved TO good works that we should walk in them.
