LOL, riiiiight.
Context minus the portions Luther threw out because he accepted the authority of self-appointed, anti-Christ, anti-Christian, Pharisees rather than the authority of Christ, the Apostles, and fifteen hundred years of accepted Christian teaching as well as other limitations chosen for convience sake.
Sure, context as Self defines context for the convienence of Self at any given moment.
Exactly the sort of "context" that twists the simple, direct, statement of "not by faith alone" into "that's a different kind of faith because otherwise I'd have to be inconvienenced".
Protestantism is and always has been the same lie Eve swallowed. The lie that the individual can rely on their Self and Self Alone rather than submitting to and obeying God.
I'll pray for you
And what parts did Luther "throw out"?
Or are you going to claim that he added the words faith alone to the Bible??
What part of Romans did he toss, or of the Gospels, etc.
You made the claim, you gotta back it up.
Not sure what part of John 3:16 you disagree with.
Maybe you don't like this one either:
Romans 10:9 "that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved."
Romans 10:13 "for whoever will call upon the name of the Lord will be saved."
or this one
Eph 2:8-9 "for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not as a result of works, that no one should boast."
You will never hear me say one doesn't have to submit to God. Part of that submission is the faith part.
No one needs a priest to explain this. The Bible is clear on these issues; if one just reads it in its proper context.
