To: Salvation
You provide so much for .. I don't know why.

I am saved by grace, not of myself (nor can I muster up or call down .. grace) .. not of works (or a work or any work (including baptism)

why?

So no man can boast

God provides freely so that with childlike faith, we can come to Him and be saved

Festus cautioned Paul,

"As he spoke these things, and made his answer, Festus said with a loud voice: Paul, thou art beside thyself: much learning doth make thee mad. - Douay Rheims Bible"

I like and prefer the simpler way God has provided.

I was baptized that righteosness be fullfilled ... not to be saved.


I appreciate your hard work posting so much, but it is not needed
