TO BE SAVED BY GRACE OR TO BE SAVED BY WORKS IS THE QUESTION.

in #religion7 years ago (edited)

            ARE YOU SAVED? BY WORKS OR GRACE?

              During a time of universal deceit, the truth is revolutionary!


Know that all religion is man made.  Religion is created by the Devil to divide the sheep.  The Devil is at work by the creation of religion to divide and conquer by confusion. Being saved by Grace, works, or both? .... Hence confusion!

(1 Peter 5:8 8Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:), (John 10:10 10The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.)

           Realize God created everything!  You, me and the Devil.

1.  John 1:1-5 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

            God is Jesus and the Holy Ghost.

2.  1 John 5:7-8 7For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 8And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

4.  1 John 5:20 20And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

           There is only on God!

6.  Isaiah 45:22 22Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

7.  Isaiah 45:12 12I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.

8.  Acts 17:24 24God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is LORD of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; 

9.  Romans 13:1-2 1Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. 2Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.  

9.  1 Timothy 2:5-6 5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

10.  Ephesians 4:4-6 4There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5One LORD, one faith, one baptism, 6One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

11.  James 2:19 19Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.

           We all will be judged!

12.  Romans 14:11-12 11For it is written, As I live, saith the LORD, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. 12So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

13.  2 Corinthians 5:10 10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

            Do not be misled!

14.  Galatians 1:8 8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

            Be saved!

15.  Romans 10:13 13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved.

16.  Romans 11:6 6And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

17.  1 Corinthians 15:1-4 1Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

18.  Acts 16:31 31And they said, Believe on the LORD Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

19.  Romans 1:16 16For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

20.  Romans 2:16 16In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

21.  Ephesians 1:13 13And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit,

22.  Ephesians 4:30 30And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

23.  Titus 3:5 5Not 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;

24.  Ephesians 2:9 9Not of works, lest any man should boast.

           Jesus is the true LIGHT!!

25.  John 6:40 40And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, 

may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

26.  Acts 10:43 43To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

27.  John 6:37 37All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

28.  John 14:6 6Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

If you accept Jesus Christ as your savior ... nothing will separate you from our Father's GRACE!!

29.  Romans 8:37-39 37Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our LORD.

I pray for those who took the time to read this ... gets blessed.  If only one gets saved....then I have done the will of our Father in Heaven!  May our  LORD bless each and every one of you and your families!

Thank you for your time!

P.S.  I am human too and do not walk on water .... so forgive grammar and spelling.  Please feel free to add verses to this list!!

P.S.#2  I understand there is a few verses in the bible that state you can loose your salvation and works is required to be saved.  Please know that these verses are for the Jews during the tribulation when God judges the chosen people of Israel.  In Hebrews and in Revelations are verses as stated above and I am sure more exist but still all reference the Jews during tribulation.

P.S.#3  James 2:14-26 -- "Refers to faith without works is dead"  Faith brings about good works from and for man, but has nothing to do with GOD'S grace to accept you into his kingdom.  Only a few will enter and is by GOD's grace!



Sort:  

IMHO, we are saved by reason.

Whos reason... mans?? How can the creation be greater than the creator? Please explain... not understanding and do want to know your meaning of "reason" Iron sharpens iron and I am always up to learning something new.

Reason, prudence of thought, intellectual honesty, science. I think all these things are very important to make us better human beings.

No doubt and you are so correct about mans reasoning. Romans 11:6 is strictly about God's grace to accept us into his kingdom. Reason, prudence of thought, intellectual honesty, science is all man. If you where to die today...do you know for sure you will go to heaven? Man can not judge or assume he is going to heaven. Science is an not of our Lord. John 1:1-5 Science started with Darwinism and created by a man to mislead the sheep. Science is witchcraft and supports the big bang theory and not God who spoke everything into existence. Deuteronomy 18:9-13 9When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. 10There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch. 11Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. 12For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. 13Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God. You are preaching science and not the True WORD of GOD. Scientology it is for your comment.

Thank you for commenting and I enjoy this conversation. I will pray for you tonight! You must also believe in Atlantis Enki and Enlil, Sumerian, Egyptian, Greek, and Roman practices. All believe that man is his own God and divine being.
