I did not say "So, you have to just preach it, not live it." That was what you said I said..

let me ask you this.. can your good works save anyone, including yourself?

For the umpeen thousandth time it is NOT either/or it is both. You cannot have faith without works or works without faith.

can your good works save anyone, including yourself?

Define "your good works". No works alone can save anyone. Neither can faith alone.

I did not say "So, you have to just preach it, not live it."

NL said: Is preaching limited to a recitation of the written Scripture or does it (should it) include a demonstration of actually living the Scriptures?

RN said: Works never saved anyone.

That sure doesn't sound like a "Yes, we should be living the gospel". And why bother with living the gospel if you are predestined?
