    Well I posted a response to DHK, but thought better of it as there really is no point in continuing discussions with you. Your mind is already made up, so now only time will tell.

    Faith

    We are saved by grace through faith and this faith causes action.

    All these works together.

    Some people will be very disappointed when they face Jesus and He tells them get away from me you evil doer, I never knew you.

    Goats are leading poor sheep in the pit of thier own destruction defending the word of men over the word of God.

    Do you really think that faith without deeds will save you?

    Do you really want to take a chance on your salvation, because men say you can fall asleep in faith and still be saved?

    Since faith causes action and you have no action with your faith, do you really have faith?

    We are going to fall make mistakes but we are to get up again and place our eyes on Jesus for He is the only one can save us. That faith is not in our works, but in the works of Jesus and if we love Him we will obey Him.

    We are to do good deeds not to save ourselves, but that other will see our good deed and praise our Father in Heaven.

    Under the Law we worked to try to save ourselves, under grace we live for others.

    If me eating meat causes my weaker brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again.

    Faith without deeds is dead, as an unbeliever is dead.

    You say you are the temple of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit works.

    And holding to some errant church traditions is going to leave a great number stunned when they stand before the Judge on that day. It's terribly sad, but a reality nonetheless.
