I question your interpretation of that particular verse. Faith is NOT an act of doing the Law. I believe you may be ignoring context. Consider Romans 4:5. Scripture tells us belief/faith is not a work.

What you're saying the verse says. So have I correctly summarized your position? Please answer my question, so we can continue reasoning together.

So I say again: the conclusion of what you're saying is that people are saved, they just don't know it. True or false?

So your point is that this verse teaches us faith is something we actively do?

Well? Any response?

Look, I don't like the president -- but "apparent attempt to insult them"? What was the insult? How about "stupid attempt at a joke that no one got or understood"?

In that particular verse, no. Jesus isn't telling the pharisees that faith is something they should do; He's admonishing them for placing their salvation on their works rather than faith.

Poncho, Poncho, Poncho. A military owned by banksters and corporitos is still a military.

How many troops does it take to operate 2 or more drones?

(It's a misunderstanding; the defense department has been reporting to Congress for several years that we're unable to fight two conventional war fronts at the same time; i.e., China and some other country in a conflict consisting of standard employment of ground, sea, and air power. What has...

.... Why can't we fight on two fronts at once?

So everyone's saved; a lot of people just don't know it. Interesting.

I already did. Your entire post is completely supported by three verses. There's no need to discuss it point-by-point, because all you did was reiterate the same thing several times. If Ephesians 2:8-10 does not summarize your position, then it's on you to explain why not. Upon evaluating your...

Ya know, all ya gotta do is play Risk with the "special weapons" option, where you can use a nuke to remove all the armies from a country...but no one's allowed to occupy that country for 3-5 turns to simulate the effects of radiation...and one could start to understand the strategic problems...

To be fair -- he said Obama could surrender. In fairness, Obama could try to surrender...and somehow, I think CMG would be right there with us resisting if Obama tried....

Who cares? He exercised his freedom of speech, and was later fired (a firing that was upheld by the Supreme Court) for plagiarism and unprofessional conduct. He's not on anyone's radar except as a whacko. No disagreement; but what's the point? Please explain what you mean by "hollow military."...

I understood them fully. The synopsis of your post is that we are not saved by the workings of the law, which is summarized in Eph 2:8-10. If you don't agree, it is now upon you to explain why what you said isn't what you said, and/or why scripture doesn't sufficiently summarize your post.

You could have saved a whole lot of electrons and simply quoted Ephesians 2:8-10 - by grace are ye saved through faith ... not of works ... we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works....

Risk. 'Nuff said.

Um...impossible. Really. There's no way enough jihadists could flock in to pose a serious threat to our military, much less the millions of rednecks that would never willingly surrender. THEN you have to consider, all those different factions--which one would we surrender to? Would the other...
