    This is a perfect example of your ignorance of cause and effect.
    God saves by grace (cause) through faith ( effect). This has been shown, ad nauseam, via scripture and yet this simple truth escapes you.

    Do you grasp the fact that it is totally, 100%, God doing the work? As with sbw, you miss the forest.

    No one earns eternal life according to one's works. Romans 6:23.

    Faith alone in the finished work and person of Lord Jesus saves!

    Do you hold to Catholic Justification then, mixture of grace and our good works?

    Romans 11:6

    And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work

    How can you believe we are justified by the blood of Jesus “100%”, and still argue we are justified by our works? At most, you must believe the blood of Jesus justifies 99%, and our works do the rest.

    peace to you

    What does scripture say concerning Abraham? was he justified by grace alone, or was he justified in sight of Giod by his circumcision?

    My personal understanding is in # 132. I have presented in the OP and another thread, passages from the Bible that do show, that somehow, "works" are taken into account by the Lord, but I do not believe as "meritorious"

    I am going to create another thread what I believe to be the Bible's teaching on Justification, and it is not by "faith ALONE", which is very much unbiblical!

    My justification is not by my faith I can tell you that but you don't need to listen to me but by the Faith of the Son Of God Jesus Christ... Brother Glen:)

    Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

    8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

    8:30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
