Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

You claim to be citing scripture. Which version is this?
This version is The King James in 1 John 4:3;

"And every spirit which does not confess Jesus is not of God; and this is the spirit of the antichrist,
of which you have heard that it is coming and now is already in the world."


"Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness,"​

is a false statement IMPLYING salvation as being initiated by the lost sinner and not The Savior, JESUS CHRIST.

This is a sentence fabricated with the sin-cursed reasoning in a mind that is under the curse of the Law.

And, it is Antichrist.​

I do not know of any evidence that there is writing anywhere in the history of mankind where a statement exists that is similar to this
and I do not believe any evidence exists that this sentence can be found anywhere on earth, except in Van's head. Period.

Do you not have these verses in your bible?

Joh 3:18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.

Act 16:30 He then brought them out and asked, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"
Act 16:31 They replied, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved--you and your household."

Rom 10:9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

We do, cannot save ourselves but God has set the condition of our salvation, faith in His son.

You are in error when you say that view is from the ANTICHRIST. You are actually denying clear scripture.

As we are told by Paul
Rom 1:16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
