Reasonings and Doctrine of Salvation
People can debate all they want about "this".. "that". Proverbs 16:33 The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the LORD. We are so entangled with "reasonings" regarding the doctrine of Salvation. We are so temporal in our focus and forget God's eternal promises. The spiritual knowledge is received by faith. This knowledge consists of data given by divine revelation and received by the believing mind without proof that by faith, I trust based on God's Character and God's great faiths in the Biible. We need to understand that this New Covenant is sealed in the blood of Jesus, Who is our Savior and Mediator, brought us together with His Grace and Mercy that we have great spiritual and eternal freedom. God's promise is eternal because Christ is the mediator of the covenant, that we receive the promised eternal inheritance. With that promise, as a Christian, I always thank God continually for my guarantee of my spiritual security and freedom in Christ. Christ is the mediator of the new covenant, that we receive the promised eternal inheritance.
We often disagree
how Grace work
how a Spirit-filled Christin work
how salvation really work
understanding God's commandments and doctrines
1 Corinthians 3:18
Do not deceive yourselves. If any one of you thinks he is wise by the standards of this age, he should become a "fool" so that he may become wise.
Galatians 6:3
If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
Colossians 2:4
I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments.
Titus 1:10
For there are many rebellious people, mere talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision (i.e. infant baptism, works) group.
James 1:26
If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless.
We take credit for almost everything we achieve, even our salvation. That is why the Apostle Paul wrote, “Your salvation is nothing you have achieved by your good works. It is a gift of God. You receive it by faith. That way no one can boast of his own accomplishments.”
