Featured Easy believism.

Great, you have quoted three verses from the Bible. And?

 

Easy believism is false doctrine.

How do we "take His yoke?" By believing into Christ, which means by God crediting our faith as righteousness and on the basis of that faith in the truth, putting us into Christ spiritually. But Matthew 13 tells us superficial faith and holding on to some of our worldly treasures might not result in our faith being credited as righteousness.

A deep commitment, results so to speak in having a "root" within us, such that we will strive to walk the talk. Live faith not dead faith. Not whitewash on the outside, but vile on the inside.

 

Did anyone say salvation is not a gift? Nope - so one falsehood being hidden by yet another falsehood.

 

Please address what I actually said, I am tired of addressing disinformation

Sticks and stones, Sir, sticks and stones. No verse or passage supports the false doctrine of Easy Believism.

Salvation is indeed a "free gift." (Romans 5:15, Romans 5:16, and Romans 6:23)

Easy believism relies on "dead faith." (James 2:17 and James 2:26)

1 John 5:11 Eternal life is "in" (within) His Son. Only faith that results in God putting an individual into Christ results in receiving the free gift. To believe otherwise is false doctrine.

Romans 6:23, Eternal life is "in" (within) His Son. Only faith that results in God putting an individual into Christ results in receiving the free gift. To believe otherwise is false doctrine.

Romans 1:16 says salvation is to everyone who "believes" and it is God who decides who "believes." The second and third soils of Matthew 13 did not make the grade.

Romans 4:4-5 says it is God alone who credits or not an individuals faith, not ourselves.

John 3:16 says everyone has eternal life who believes "into" Him, thus spiritually transferred into Him by God based on credited their faith as righteousness.

Matthew 11:30 says those placed into Christ will find His Yoke beneficial and that is true.

 

Did anyone say, Easy Believism is faith plus works? Nope. Did the advocate of Easy Believism suggest the only alternative is faith plus works. You bet. Is the suggestion valid? Nope

For example, say a person fully commits to Christ and his faith is credited by God as righteousness, and he is placed into Christ.
Has he done any works? Nope. Can he lose his salvation if he do not do works? Nope. Having such a deep root within himself, is it possible he will not strive to follow Christ? Not likely, thus a changed life provides reassurance of salvation. And an unchanged life provides the opposite.

False arguments are used to defend false doctrine.

 

Believe what you will Sir, I have provided what I believe is overwhelming evidence your view is false doctrine. See posts #7, #9 and #11.
Romans 12:10-13
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor; not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, persevering in tribulation, devoted to prayer, contributing to the needs of the saints, practicing hospitality.

Easy Believism ignores the deep commitment indicated by Matthew 13, and the difficulty living for Christ might cause. It is therefore a false doctrine, certainly destructive to the ministry of Christ.

 

What else is required to be saved in addition to faith in Lord Jesus, and trusting in Him and His finished work alone?

 

How much is a full commitment to Jesus to save us? the thief did not seem toi have more than a basic view on Jesus?

 

Y1 suggests something else is needed, yet another false doctrine exposed.

 

Note the ignorance of Matthew 13. Can Y1 say why soil #2 fell away? No, of course not.
This is the sort of tommy-rot up with I must put.

 

No, YOU are the one that states believing in Jesus somehow not enough!

 

How much is a real commitment? Sounds like Lordship salvation?

 

One falsehood after another, Y1 did not answer as to why soil #2 fell away. Pay no attention to this person.
