The key words here are “foolish, pointless, and worthless” Discussing the false doctrine of OSAS is neither one of those descriptors. It actually will decide the salvation of countless Christians. Paul goes to great lengths to warn us against continued, willful sin AFTER GRACE. Christ, in Revelation, LITERALLY, brings up that doctrine, that of the Nicolaitans, in Rev 2. You and your friends teach this doctrine as Gospel.

Just stop! You are intentionally bearing false witness here. I know this has been hashed over and over with you on myriad threads - NO ONE is telling people they can freely live in sin because of God's grace! That actually was the Gnostic heresy - they didn't even believe Jesus had a physical body. You insist you believe in salvation by grace through faith but then you blow it all up by declaring unless a believer lives in perfect obedience to God's commandments, he will lose his salvation. How does one lose something he hasn't yet ultimately received? And if my salvation is dependent on how I live my life (works), how can it be by grace? It's either grace OR works. God says it's GRACE. Until you open your heart to the pure gospel of salvation by God's grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone to the glory of God ALONE, any further arguing with you is pointless and a waste of time. If nothing else, you need to stop accusing us of teaching Gnostic heresy as "our" gospel. That is a LIE.

As I'm sure you will continue to try to drag this on and on, know that I am done discussing this with you.

——>perfect obedience to God’s commandments

No, that actually is bearing false witness against me, just like your friend Luircin said that I “outright confessed that I ignore Scripture that I don’t like...”

Why would I do that? IT’S THE TRUTH (no matter how many times you say it isn’t).
