“I’m sure you know people like her—they know and believe that Christ is the Savior, they know they need Him, but they are unwilling to make a commitment to Him. Perhaps they even go to church and hear the Word of God. They are like the proverbial man who says he believes a boat will keep him afloat, but never sets foot in one.”
What commitment does he mean?
A blood oath?
A total submerged baptism plus public confession of faith?
The gift of eternal life is FREE. Believe in your heart & confess the Lord Jesus with your mouth and it’s yours (Romans 10:9-10). Works-based salvation isn’t the Gospel of Christ, though more than many legions of misinformed Christians swear by it.
that's not what he said....
he did not suggest to do good "work"....
he suggested STOP SINNING....
the worse people I know talk a good Jesus....claim they're "saved" but in reality are the biggest liars and cheats around...vindictive and hateful..
but you go on believing that if you say you believe in Jesus then your whoring and porn addiction and your drunkenness don't mean a thing..
.infact, sin more.....
I recall all those Bible belt good ol'boy Christians in the south voting for Bubba, because as you know, ones' actions are meaningless, even if you're a high end grifter and rapist....
