Rom 6:16 "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?"
One of the many reasons I reject salvation by faith only is each person is serving only one of two masters;
1) sin unto death
or
2) obedience unto righteousness
The idea of faith only rejects serving 'obedience UNTO righteousness' leaving only one other master to serve.
actually it dont . allow me a few words my friend .
The idea of WHOSE VERSION of faith only . THAT be the question .
Is it the hyper grace , pauline version of faith , WHICH I DARN SURE KNOW paul himself did not preach .
OR is it this kind of faith .
Now just listen to and bask in the beauty of this true faith i am about to explain .
WHO our faith is in is WHOM we believe and do serve .
The problem is many have their faith IN
, well in another jesus , in mens doctrines
in a jesus that hollers judge not
But hollers even louder TO JUDGE .
Does that sound like it might need some explaining .
GOOD .
Their jesus is fast to holler judge not those who enter in as brethren
And overlooks their sins and errors .
BUT it darn sure has convinced its followers TO JUDGE HARSHLY
those who come to correct those in sin and error .
OH believe me when i say IT IS BY FAITH we are saved .
But abraham had faith . SO lets look at his example.
WHEN GOD SPOKE did abraham try and find a way around What HE SAID
or DID HE BELEIVE GOD and thus DO what HE SAID .
YOU SEE , WHOM we beleive , whom we serve , OH MY ITS WHOSE WE ARE .
But many serve sin , many serve a jesus , a god
who has come in the name of what it calleth love
what it calleth grace
what it calleth faith
BUT FRIEND IT contradicts THE HOLY GOD , HIS CHRIST , HIS WORDS .
Many can claim and DO CLAIM to believe in CHRIST JESUS to beleive GOD .
But friend what they beleive darn sure DONT believe HIS WORDS .
AND THEREIN is the PROOF . What does charity rejoice in and what does it not rejoice in ..............
TRUTH and NOT INQUITY . yet many sure seem to love this other god who under guise
of love and tolerance has fed them their own desires, what they love and loved above all ,
THEIR SIN . A LIE .
