If all you understand and HOLD to is when Paul says God "might deliver us" , "according to what they have done.", "by persistence in doing good", "if we endure", while "working out my salvation in fear and trembling".

Then you do not fully understand Paul's doctrine on eternal salvation. Go ahead, live out your life with good works to attain salvation, and in the end, see where it finds you. Do not ever try to accuse me before the living God that I need to find a new belief.

I AM A BELIEVER IN JESUS CHRIST, I AM:

I am justified freely by God’s Grace and by Christ’s FINISHED WORK on Calvary:

Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: Romans 5:9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

I am sanctified in Christ Jesus by Christ’s FINISHED WORK on Calvary:

1Corinthians 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. 1Corinthians 1:2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

I have been made "righteous" by (and through) Christ’s FINISHED WORK on Calvary:

No, this isn't all I hold on to, but you keep ignoring these verses, and say I don't understand. I understand his clear words in Scripture, which does not support your beliefs.

Instead of adding other verses into the discussion, please show me how the few verses I cited support your beliefs.
