Can i not be Christian and Saved?

[twcstp]

John 4:24 NKJV - God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

1 John 4:16
God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

Matthew 22
KJV
36Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38This is the first and great commandment. 39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.


To be 'born again' means to believe and obey the commandments of Jesus, and to recieve the Spirit of Truth (In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God)

Jesus also said "My Father is greater than I," and that is His Spirit.

Jesus also said I am in the Father and the Father is in me.

Jesus also said that the Father and I are one.

Jesus , The Father and the Holy Spirit are One God

May the Lord fill us with his wisdom and love

"There is nothing we can do to get ourselves saved"

Is that the "Done" teaching that you're talking about. This is a Theology of the devil. The done teaching believes that there is nothing that you can do, nothing at all that it was all up to Jesus whether or not you're going to be saved. And this is a false teaching.

Everyone knows you have to do something important very very important. You have to accept Jesus as Lord and savior. And that is something that you have to do.

By the way, I have read the original book on the done teaching. And the author contradicts himself a few times in his own book.

Done teaching? I have not heard. Philipian 1:6 inform us if he has begun the good teaching work he will finish till the last day

Not sure how offering that God is not served by human hands in any way shape or form has something to do with the devil who is served by human hands? Legion the man of sin .

We can see him working to deceive Peter. Peter's heart lifted up against the Lord . Forbid the lord from finish the work saying . . this shall not be unto Jesus . Then in effect the Lord gave words to his prophet Jesus and His word rebuked the spirit of lies commanding him to get behind the lord walk after the will of God. Not the will of the father of lies Legion.

Peter was forgiven of his blasphemy against the Son man Jesus . Blasphemy against the unseen God has no forgiveness.

Doing nothing is like the person with the talends , burying them in the sand.

Do you not understand. Faith itself is an action word. And it takes faith to believe.

If you are idle, you are only the devils tool.

We are called to Faith and Love, and they are both words of action

I see people hear professing to be saved by the grace of God.
But then say they are not christian,that they dont act like chrristians,and even that they hate christians.
The way scripture reads,i would think if claim not to be christian,dont act like a christian,dont like christians period.....you are lost and undone and a fearful judgments awaits.

Biblically, you'll "know 'em by their LOVE". remember that the VISIBLE CHURCH is always a mixture in varying proportion of "Wheat", and "Tares", and that to HUMANS they're indistinguishable one from another - until the harvest.

 

[KingJ]

Let me ask it in another way.
After a person IS saved,is that person now a christian,or no?

Yes.

The original Greek word for Christian is “Christianos” which comes from the two Greek words “Christ and tian.” The word Christ means “anointed” and tian means “little.” So the word “Christian” literally means “little anointed ones.” During his life Jesus was called the “messiah” which meant “the anointed one”.

There are people who do not know they are Christians. It is because of thier love for others that makes them Christian in Gods eyes

Yet the Word says Mine is a nation of Priest not Christian.. n it says nothing about the church of chrsitianity or Christian in revelations. . so are you saying YH is wrong His is not a nation of priest??

Both are true and acceptable.

 

[Twistie]

Both are true and acceptable.

Naw I'll Take YH ova man anytime..

N it's written

And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.

There's not two Truths just one.. perhaps that where we differ...

Many gotten stuck in the world's words n ways

It takes the faith of children to enter Heaven. Twisty has that faith simple and pure. And her love for God is perfect

Being good and generous does npthing for you. A lot of good people will be in hell. You must accept Christ and be forgiven. Because youre good would be salvation by works.

You do not understand God. You are only thinking with your head, not your heart.

God does not look at a persons words, God looks at the heart.

You can scream to the mountain tops, Jesus is my Lord and Saviour, but it will not save you.

Have you never read the scripture " it is not listening to the law but by keeping it that will make people holy in the sight of God. For instance, pagans who never heard of the law but our led by reason to do what the law commands, may not actually possess the law, but they can be said to be the law. They can point to the substance of the law engraved on their hearts." Romans 2, 13 - 15

I said accept him as savior,not merely professing

Those whose hearts are circumcised already have

Rom 2:29 "the real Jew is one who is inwardly a jew, and the real circumcision is in the heart - something not of the letter but of the spirit. A Jew like that may not be praised by man, but he will be praised by God"

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.

Thats true. And what instument circumcised that heart?
