It most certainly was NOT a dodge. I told you that definitions must be agreed on, as they mean different things to different religions. I could be talking about one thing that means something completely different to the RCC. Don't you get that?

Now, as far as "my gospel", are you saying you believe that John 5:29 is the gospel Paul was referring to? That that is the gospel that all men will be judged on? And I'll ask you one more time, what does "faith in Christ" mean? Faith that He showed us how to live? Faith that He is there to guide us to be like Him? Faith that He gave Peter the keys to the Kingdom? Faith that He established a line of successors to Peter and a Catholic Church that the gates of Hell would not prevail against? What? All of these, none of these, more than these? Just what is that FAITH that gives us eternal life?

Look, if you think I'm dodging your questions, don't bother to answer this post. I'm just not going to get into a match of RCC language versus the Bible. It's that simple. If you truly want to know, I'll be happy to show you.

I am well aware that you believe there are two different gospels. The one Jesus gave to the original twelve for the Jew and the one He gave to Paul for the Gentile. I do not agree they are different.

As for faith, this is my faith....

That Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the second person of the Trinity who became man and was crucified for the expiation of sin.

That it is only by the grace of God, through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus that we can even hope to have eternal life in heaven.

It’s a simple question, with no semantics or word games.

For what will we be judged upon on Judgement Day?

I shall look for your answer later as I am leaving for work and won’t be home until late.
