Featured Repentance: Easy Believism VS Hard Believism

Excellent video. You're getting better.

 

You are headed down a rabbit hole brother.

Why? Because only God sees the heart.

 

Salvation which is not a true gift is the heresy. There is so called "Easy Believism," a mere belief without the gospel truth. But the genuine easy believism is where salvation is a free gift. Matthew 11:28-30, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
.

 

I have often said that believing on Jesus Christ is one of the easiest things i know how to do.

 

easy believism is subjective

 

Subject it to scripture:

14 What doth it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but have not works? can that faith save him?
15 If a brother or sister be naked and in lack of daily food,
16 and one of you say unto them, Go in peace, be ye warmed and filled; and yet ye give them not the things needful to the body; what doth it profit?
17 Even so faith, if it have not works, is dead in itself.
18 Yea, a man will say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith apart from thy works, and I by my works will show thee my faith.
19 Thou believest that God is one; thou doest well: the demons also believe, and shudder.
20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith apart from works is barren? Ja 2

Faith is more than just 'saying', faith acts.

 

scripture is not subjective "thy word is truth".

 

Scripture is not the subject described as subjective in my post. The subject is faith subjective to scripture.

 

This needs to be fleshed out. I didn't catch where he suggested one man can see another's heart. Or are you saying no man can know even his own heart, whether he himself is easy believin' or not?

 

Is there a common first act?

 

well you have also entered unto the realm of opinion.

 

OK YOU define "easy believism" then compare it to someone eases definition.

 

scripture is not opinion, "thy word is truth".

 

I've actually meditated a lot on that. IMO, the one thing all His children have in common is respect for their fellow man, i.e., the golden rule written upon their hearts.

I said 'faith acts', well that's actually misleading, or not clear. Faith and works both derive from the same source. Take for example the Good Samaritan:

33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion, Lu 10

His actions were like a force of nature, from the heart, just as Paul describes:

13 for not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified:
14 (for when Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves;
15 in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing them); Ro 2

To do 'by nature' the things of the law. Matthew 7:12

 

opinion rises out of different views of the same scripture.
