When did you "pass from death to life" Catholicism vs Protestants

[TomL]

This occurs when we die a natural death at the end of our lives, by sickness, or by accident. We are paying a wage for sin. We die.

Source of life?
We still die. How do you reconcile this?
The wage for sin is death. We still die.

According to scripture, there is a passing from death to life when we believe

John 5:24 (LEB) — 24 Truly, truly I say to you that the one who hears my word and who believes the one who sent me has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.

Q.E.D.

 

[jeremiah1five]

According to scripture, there is a passing from death to life when we believe

John 5:24 (LEB) — 24 Truly, truly I say to you that the one who hears my word and who believes the one who sent me has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.

Q.E.D.

So, let me be clear since you won't say it, being alive physically but spiritually dead, when we are born-again John 5:24 is speaking about being passed from spiritually dead to spiritually alive in Christ, but we still must all die physically at the end of life, through sickness, or by accident.

In order to receive eternal life, we must all die.

Um all the scriptures I posted prove my point

You did not address a single verse

UM, Yes, you are here to promote "Your" adopted religious philosophy and to prove "Your" point, and to justify "Yourself". Calvinists are here to promote "their" adopted religious philosophy, prove "their point", and to justify themselves, same as you. Pharisees, same as you. Methodist, Baptists, Mormons, the same thing. This is the tradition of this world's religious system, AKA "Babylon" which is made up of dozens of religious sects and 501c3's all competing with each other for contributing members. And you do this by carefully selecting verses in the bible that you can use to justify "your" religion, but you reject and refuse to respect, examine or even in this conversation's example, "Acknowledge" the Words of God that Jesus gave us, that you can't twist to justify yourself. The Pharisees did the same thing, they used selected scripture/command/law, and they say, "See" we are justified by doing this verse, (works of the law) by this verse we are able to prove "Our" point. But they despised, rejected and omitted from their Life, many of God's Judgments, Statutes and Commandments that Jesus lived by, and instructed us to Live By. The Jesus "of the bible" tells you about this in Matt. 24. And by doing so, they created their own religion with their own philosophy, their own high days, their own judgements, and men are seduced by them into adopting their words, in the same way EVE was seduced to reject Gods Word, choosing instead to "Live by" the "other voice" in the garden that also "Professed to know God".

What I wanted to point out to you, but you won't hear Him, is the Words God gave to Jesus that you must full well reject that you might live by your own religious traditions.

One verse that you reject, ignore and refused to acknowledge that Jesus gave to men to steer them away from this very wicked, widespread tradition of omitting much of God's Word that you are practicing and promoting to others, is in Matt. 4:4. I posted this verse for you as well, but you rejected it.

Jesus also warns about this religious philosophy you have adopted and are now promoting to anyone who will listen to you, in Matt. 7: 21-27. But you ignored Jesus in this teaching as well. In a smaller scale, EVE did the EXACT same thing.

You completely ignored the conclusion of Paul's teaching in Eph. 2: 1-10, by carefully omitting verse 10. You completely ignored Paul's Words in Romans 11 that I posted as well.

Even in John 5:24, you refuse to even discuss what it means to "hear Jesus' Word", "AND" Believe on HIM who sent Him, even though I asked you to engage in a discussion about them.

I addressed all these things, but you refused to answer even ONE of my questions, nor did you even acknowledge "ONE" of the verses I posted which gives men a more complete understanding of, Not "your point", not the "Calvinists point", not the "JW's point", but reveals to men the point that "God was making" through the mouth of His Christ, and the Prophets before Him, and the Disciples God gave to Jesus to further "HIS Point".

We should seek to know this God through His Son, not this world's religious system that you have adopted and are promoting to others.

And when I called you out on this wicked, but popular religious tradition of this world you are partaking of, as I am required to do, you lied to everyone on this forum by saying about me, "You did not address a single verse". And you are still lying about it, even after the record shows that I did.

Now understand that I'm not trying to persuade you to listen to and "hearken" to Every Word God gave to the Messiah, because Jesus told me you will not be persuaded in Luke 16:33. And HE told me why.

But I point this out because there might be someone else on this forum who sees the hypocrisy, blindness, and the self-righteousness of those promoters of this world's religions and their synagogues, who claim to believe in the Jesus "of the Bible", who call Him Lord, Lord, who "come in His Name" who "Transform themselves into Apostles of Christ", but completely ignore so much of God's Word that Jesus said to Live by.

This is why it is useless to try and have any kind of intellectually honest discussion about what the Bible actually teaches, with a promoter of one of this world's religious sects. It's the same with the Pharisees, JW, Baptists, Calvinists and on and on. It is truly the "course of this world" to engage in such dishonest behavior. Everyone knows I addressed this John 5 verse when you first posted it, in great detail in posts #10, #13 and #19. I addressed the Scriptures you posted in detail, by considering more of Paul's words, not just a verse here or there that is commonly used to...

it may be a surprise to you but all those verses demonstrate a demarcation point where one passes from death to life

It may also be a surprise to you but

Ephesians 2:10 (The New Testament: Translated from the Original Greek) — 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God before prepared, that we should walk in them.

Does not state you will be saved by good works

Ephesians 2:8–9 (The New Testament: Translated from the Original Greek) — 8 For by grace you have been saved through the faith; and this matter is not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: 9 not by works, lest any one should boast.

What nonsense

All the verses established a demarcation point which you cannot avoid by asking questions

Your adopted "demarcation point" can only be supported by erasing much of the Christ's Words, Paul's words, James words, and almost the entire Law and Prophets. That is the religious tradition of this world that I am speaking to. You are furthering the "tradition" started in the garden by the king of deceivers. You quote "Some" of God's Word to promote a philosophy that can't be supported if you honored God in His Every Word.

Calvinists do the exact same thing, only they promote a different philosophy than you, and therefore select different verses to establish their "demarcation point" and ignore different verses than you do. The Pharisees engaged in the exact same tradition of "Omitting" God's Word to justify much of their religious philosophy, as you are promoting today.

I have seen you judge the religious sect of the Calvinist over and over and over on this forum. It seems clear that you "SEE" the hypocrisy in their religious sect. But you engage in the exact same traditions, the rejection of many of the Christ's Sayings, and the refusal to "DO" as HE instructs. Paul speaks to this when he was addressing the mainstream religion of the world God placed him in.

Rom. 2: 1 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. 2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

This tradition you have adopted and are now promoting to others is a Tradition of this world's religious system, AKA Babylon. It is not an instruction from God through any of His Words, and certainly not any of His Words spoken through the mouth of the Messiah HE sent.

Your tradition of cherry-picking Gods Word to justify and promote the philosophies of a specific religious sect, is "the course of this world", not the "Way of the Lord" as defined by the Lord's Christ, when a person considers all of His Teaching as Truth.

I am pointing this out in case there are others on this forum that are seeking the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness, rather than seeking justification, which is what the promoters of this world's religious system does.

Ephesians 2:10 (The New Testament: Translated from the Original Greek) — 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God before prepared, that we should walk in them.

Does not state you will be saved by good works

It says what the entire Bible says from the beginning to the end.

Gen. 4: 7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

Rev. 14: 12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

God doesn't save men to promote Calvinism, or JW doctrine, of Arminianism or any of this world's religious institutions. Paul is teaching here that men are saved from "Their" traditions, when "they" walked in the religious philosophies of this world as "children of disobedience" to God, so that they might repent of "their" ways and walk instead, in the "Works" that God created, like Jesus did. Which is the purpose of His Mercy in the first place. At least according to Scriptures.

This is Paul's teaching throughout his letters. The Calvinists engage in the same tradition, only they use and omit different verses than you.

Paul tries to tell you, but you are not here to "hear him", you are here to justify and promote a religion, by using "some" of the Inspired Words of God.

Rom. 2: 6 (God) Who will render "to every man" according "to his deeds": 7 "To them" who by patient continuance "in well doing" seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

Not of (Man's) works, lest "any man" should boast.

For "we" ( Those who have yielded themselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and their members as instruments of righteousness unto God.)

are his workmanship, "created in Christ Jesus" unto good works, which "God" (Not Methodists, not JW's, not Baptists, not Mormons, not Calvinists, not Catholics, not the Pharisees, not Gamaliel, not any of the religious sects that make up this world's religious system, but as it is written, which "GOD" ) hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Jesus confirms this in His Words that you refuse to acknowledge in Matt. 4:4, Matt. 5: 17-20, Matt. 7: 21-27, Matt. 19:17, Luke 16: 31 and many many more.

As Jesus said "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that "heareth my word", and "believeth on him" that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

As I asked, but you refused to answer, "Does Jesus mean to hear just some of His Words, or "ALL" of His Sayings? And what does it mean to believe in the God and Father of the Lord's Christ?

Hello

Ephesians 2:8–9 (The New Testament: Translated from the Original Greek) — 8 For by grace you have been saved through the faith; and this matter is not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: 9 not by works, lest any one should boast.

and does nothing at all to deny the established demarcation point.

Because the Bible for many, is merely a tool of justification used by this world's religious system that you have adopted and are now promoting to others, you are right to say that nothing written therein, will cause you to "deny" your adopted, established "demarcation point". Consider the mainstream religion of Jesus' time. They had the Oracles of God in which God through Moses and the Prophets exposed and condemned their religious philosophies. Then John the Baptist, as Prophesied, came and rebuked and exposed their religious traditions again. Then the Prophesied Messiah came and showed them their wicked religious tradition. Then Stephen came and by the Scriptures did the same thing. And they silenced them all.

Then Paul came, and James and all these Faithful men are still speaking through the Holy Bible. But after all this, the religious system of this world still refused to consider that maybe Gods Word was right, and it was their adopted religious sect, the "other voice" in the Garden God placed them in, that had led them into being the children of disobedience.

I want to thank you for this platform, and the examples you have given here of the pitfalls that befall those who refuse to hear Gods Word in favor of "Other Voices" that also "profess with their mouth" that Jesus is Lord, Lord, but are not "Doers" of His Sayings.

There is no doubt that those "Christians" Jesus spoke of in Matt. 7:22 were also convinced by the same religious system of this world, that they had passed from death unto life. But what does Jesus actually say about these "many" who call Him Lord, Lord?

"And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

I can understand how these Words of the Christ might bring question to your "established demarcation point".

Perhaps that's the very reason why HE said them.

 

[Bob Carabbio]

I don't think many Protestants actually know when they "passed from death to life".

In which case they, in all likelihood, never did.

Being CONVICTED OF SIN by the Holy Spirit, Surrendering, and REPENTING in FAITH, calling on God for salvation isn't something that anybody is likely to "forget".

Bottom line - "Belief" is valid only until something more persuasive comes along, but FAITH KNOWS. You have to hold onto and defend "Belief", but FAITH holds on to you - FAITH has SUBSTANCE, and is EVIDENCE of your relationship with God (Heb 11:1).

Um its scripture

hello

You can deny it only by denying the verses

John 5:24 (LEB) — 24 Truly, truly I say to you that the one who hears my word and who believes the one who sent me has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.

gives the same demarcation point as does

Colossians 2:13 (NASB95) — 13 When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions,

Ephesians 2:5 (NASB95) — 5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

Acts 16:30–31 (LEB) — 30 And he brought them outside and said, “Sirs, what must I do so that I can be saved?” 31 And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, you and your household!”

Titus 3:4–7 (LEB) — 4 But when the kindness and love for mankind of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not by deeds of righteousness that we have done, but because of his mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we may become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Romans 10:9–10 (LEB) — 9 that if you confess with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth one confesses, resulting in salvation.

Acts 2:21 (LEB) — 21 And it will be that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.’

Romans 8:24 (LEB) — 24 For in hope we were saved, but hope that is seen is not hope, for who hopes for what he sees?

Romans 10:13 (LEB) — 13 For “everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.”

 

[Studyman]

Um its scripture

hello

Thank you Tom, for your continued defense and promotion of this world's most popular religious tradition. Yes, you are quoting "SOME" of God's Word spoken through the mouth of HIS Christ. For those reading along, the serpent in the garden behaved in the exact same tradition.

Gen. 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

So Tom, I know the spirit on you will not let you answer any questions that I ask, but I'll ask anyway for those reading along. Did God really say this? Let's see.

Gen. 2: 16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:

Gen. 1: 29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

So there you go Tom. Here is your "demarcation point" proving that the Serpent was right, and God was wrong, because "UM Hello, it's Scripture."

But wait a minute. What happens when a man rejects your adopted religious tradition, that you defend and promote on this forum so zealously, and actually "Hearken to" the Words of the Jesus "of the bible"?

Matt. 4: 4 But he (Jesus) answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth "of God". What happens to our understanding when we become "Doers" of the Christ's Sayings, and not hearers only?

So, let's turn away from your religion and actually "DO" what the Jesus "of the bible" instructs and see what happens.

Gen. 2: 16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: 17 "But" of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

I know you will not be persuaded by Scriptures, because you only use the ones that can be taken out of context to justify your specific religion. Calvinists do the same. Pharisees as well. This is the tradition of the "Course of this world" that you walk in and promote others to walk in.

But for those reading along who are "Seeking" the Righteousness of God as God Commanded through the mouth of His Messiah, can you not see why Jesus said to Live By Every Word, and the importance of being a "Doer" of His Sayings, and not a hearer only?

Consider applying God's Instruction HE gave through the Mouth of my Lord and Savior concerning the following cherry-picked verses.

John 5:24 (LEB) — 24 Truly, truly I say to you that the one who hears my word and who believes the one who sent me has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.

Matt. 7: 26 And every one "that heareth" these sayings of mine, and "doeth them not", shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

Colossians 2:13 (NASB95) — 13 When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions,

Luke 13: 3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

Acts 26: 19 Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision: 20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

All these verse flow together like a river of flowing water. My friends, get out of this world's synagogues, and their hypocritical traditions and rejection of Christ's Words that don't align with their specific 501c3. Hearken to the Words of the Jesus "of the Bible", as Gods Law requires.

Ephesians 2:5 (NASB95) — 5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God (not Baptists, not JW's, not Calvinists, not Methodists, not Mormons, But "GOD") hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Rom. 6: 15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. 16 Know ye not, that to whom "ye yield yourselves" servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

Acts 16:30–31 (LEB) — 30 And he brought them outside and said, “Sirs, what must I do so that I can be saved?” 31 And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, you and your household!”

Matt. 7: 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Tom, if you believed in this Jesus, you would have acknowledged His Words I posted and answered the questions I posed.

Titus 3:4–7 (LEB) — 4 But when the kindness and love for mankind of God our Savior appeared, 5 "he saved us", not by "deeds of righteousness" that we have done,

Who is the "US" here? Of course the spirit on you will not allow you to engage in any honest way. But for those reading along, who is the "US" here that Paul is speaking to?

"Rom. 6:12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but "yield yourselves unto God", as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. "

3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

Did the Love of God appear to all men, because of "man's righteousness"? No Tom, as Paul says, we were "foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another."

Seek to understand God's Word, not self-justification, which is all you do on this forum.

5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

but because of his mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we may become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Eph. 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; 24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God (Not your religious tradition, or the Baptists/Methodist philosophy, or the JW's, or the Mormons, or Calvinists, but the New Man which "AFTER GOD", is "created in righteousness and true holiness".

This is why Jesus said to "SEEK", not this world's religious system that you are here to justify and promote, but the Kingdom of God and HIS Righteousness. This Path HE said to Strive for is not as popular as the religious traditions you have adopted and are promoting to others.

Romans 10:9–10 (LEB) — 9 that if you confess with your mouth “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth one confesses, resulting in salvation.

Rom. 11: 22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

Matt. 7: 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Acts 2:21 (LEB) — 21 And it will be that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.’

Here again, you are furthering the oldest and greatest deception just as God exposed for us in the very beginning. "Hath God not Said" that "Everyone" who calls Jesus Lord, Lord shall inherit the Kingdom? "UM Hello, it's Scripture".

Romans 8:24 (LEB) — 24 For in hope we were saved, but hope that is seen is not hope, for who hopes for what he sees?

Hope for what Tom? That your specific religious 501c3, with your man-made judgments, your man-made high days, your man-made images of God and your rejection of God's Word that doesn't suit you, is the Path to eternal life?

Romans 10:13 (LEB) — 13 For “everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Gen. 2: 16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
