Featured Justification by Faith !

@Brightfame52 you are just showing that you do not have a good command of the English language when you do not realize that " through faith" is the condition.

 

Under normal circumstances I would say you just do not understand the English language very well but now it is obvious that you just do not want to accept the truth of scripture.

You proclaim a false gospel and thus need to be shunned. Typical of all false teachers you do not want truth just compliance.

 

Galatians 3:8
The Scripture, knowing beforehand that God would justify the Gentiles based on God crediting their faith as righteousness, preached a portion of the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “ALL THE NATIONS WILL BE BLESSED IN YOU.”

Justification is accomplished by the washing of regeneration (being made alive together with Christ) based on God crediting our worthless faith as righteousness and transferring us into Christ spiritually. The washing of regeneration accomplishes the "circumcision of Christ" where the consequence of our sinful state and our past, present and future sins, are removed, taken out of the way and nailed on the cross so to speak, due to the faithfulness of Christ's sacrifice on the cross.

The promised blessing of "all the nations" (all kinds of people) will be blessed is unconditional. However, for any individual to receive the blessing of receiving reconciliation, God must credit their faith as righteousness, thus a conditional blessing of the individual.

Folks, note the absurd stonewalling!
1) Credited faith is a condition of individual election for salvation
2) Abraham's faith was credited and the faith of individual believers is being credited.
3) Abraham was promised to be the father of many nations (both believing Jews and non-Jews) all with a faith like Abraham.

...it's hard to get around your absurd showboating!

 

Once again we have a post disparaging me but stonewalling the topic. This behavior is the sine qua non of deceivers.

1) Credited faith is a condition of individual election for salvation
2) Abraham's faith was credited and the faith of individual believers is being credited.
3) Abraham was promised to be the father of many nations (both believing Jews and non-Jews) all with a faith like Abraham.

You are addressing me with false claims, which indicates your position.

2) Abraham's faith was credited and the faith of individual believers is being credited.
3) Abraham was promised to be the father of many nations (both believing Jews and believing non-Jews) all with a faith like Abraham.

Thanks for finally agreeing that we are justified based on faith, but that the justification is "accomplished" the blood of Christ, i.e. the washing of regeneration, the circumcision of Christ.

 

Absurd claims in light of all the verses that say justification is based on (ek) faith. Galatians 3:8 ring a bell?

The most straight forward rendering is "...justified based on faith." The preposition "ek" means"out from or arising from" faith. And as the OP correctly notes, the question is whose faith, ours or Christ's faithfulness. The effort to present "Christ's faithfulness" in both of the OP options is bogus.

Are we justified because of our faith? No, of course not. We undergo the washing of regeneration to be "made righteous." Thus we are justified by receiving the reconciliation provided by Christ's faithfulness in the sacrifice of His life on the cross.

The question I have asked again and again is why does God credit as righteousness the faith of believers per Romans 4:23-25? I do not think any Calvinist has provided a sensible answer. Or why does 2 Thessalonians 2:13 say God chooses individuals for salvation through faith in the truth?

In summary we were justified on the basis of Christ's faithfulness, when we are put into Christ based on God crediting our faith as righteousness.

 

Gal 3:8 What's more, the Scriptures looked forward to this time when God would declare the Gentiles to be righteous because of their faith. God proclaimed this good news to Abraham long ago when He said, "All nations will be blessed through you."

BF you have said a number of times that "Everyone Christ died for shall be Justified by Faith." but for you tho hold to that view would mean you have to be a universalist.

The scriptures are clear as to how Christ died for. Are you going to deny scripture?

Heb 2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone.

1Jn 2:2 And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

1Ti 2:6 who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time,

Rom 5:6 For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

Rom 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Christ died for the sins of all men but God will only save those that free trust in Him.

Gal 3:5 Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?;
Gal 3:6 just as Abraham "believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness."
Gal 3:7 Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham.
Gal 3:8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, "In you all the nations shall be blessed."

BF, I keep telling you to look at verses in context and then you will not continue to miss apply scripture.
