You do not get to demand ANYTHING of me NOTHING.
You have seen what I depend in many times and YOU have commented on what I believe several times about salvation, but I will do it one more time. YOU are beginning to act like dan asking the same question whenever you believe it fits YOUR narrative , which I find disingenuous and dishonest.
Salvation is trusting in the Lord Jesus' sacrifice as a payment for sin believed through faith.Grace is 100% provided by God as a result of faith, but it does not stop there as per scripture. You cannot place your faith in God if you refuse to repent of a known sin that the Holy Spirit has convicted to lead you to place your faith in the Lord Jesus.
There is a verse that says ," they loved their sin more than God;another words, they refused to repent of their sin=lost.
lol
I can imagine you getting all bent out of shape :chuckle:
But actually...
1- If you're going to play Bible expert, you should at least have a clear testimony of your salvation.
2- It has always appeared to me that you trusted Christ died for your sins but that you then added some sort of an obvious doing or so called repenting on your part, to that.
You were saved the moment you trusted that Christ died for your sins.
What ever you then added to that in the very moment just after you believed, is nothing more than your religious confusion, and fortunately for you; too late - you had already trusted that Christ died for your sins and in that very moment by itself the Spirit right then and there baptized you into or identified you with Christ's death, burial and resurrection in newness of life with Him for eternity.
In short, what I have actually been attempting to get YOU clear on, is the following...
Galatians 3:1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? 3:2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 3:3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
3:6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
