Faith Alone. It is true that salvation is through faith alone, but what does faith mean? It is more than just believing in Jesus, his death and resurrection. Faith includes the need for water baptism, Mark 16:16. Faith means keeping the commandments, John 14:15, Romans 6:23, Ecc. 12:13. Faith means abstaining from future sin, Hebrews 10:26,27. Faith means seeking forgiveness for sins after water baptism, 1 John 1:9. This is true Christian faith in practice. In order to live, you have to live it out. Jesus said in Matthew 22:37-40 KJV ... Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. [38] This is the first and great commandment. [39] And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. [40] On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. - and in these two commandments we find the beginning of good works.

@jota_mca Isaiah 45:7 KJV I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

"¿Por qué creó Dios el mal?" [Esta es probablemente la mejor respuesta que he escuchado a la pregunta.] Un Profesor Universitario preguntó a sus alumnos: "¿Todo lo que existe fue creado por Dios?" Un estudiante respondió con valentía:

If you don't believe Jesus can strengthen you so that you don't sin and help you to walk perfectly before the LORD, do you really believe in Jesus?

It's not about attending Church. It's not about reading your Bible. It's not about keeping the law. It's about relationship with Jesus! Have you heard this before? I tell you those things listed above are relationship with Jesus. If you do them, Jesus and the Father will come and make a home in you.

Interpreting biblical context is easy. If it's in the Holy Bible it's written to you. It doesn't matter if it's the four gospels, one of Paul letters, or any of the 66 books, if you're reading the words, THEY ARE INTENDED TO LIVE IN YOU.

@elonmusk James 2:13 KJV For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

Yes

Be separate and avoid sin. 2 Corinthians 6:17-18 KJV Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, [18] And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

What does it mean to be a child of God?

@farmingandJesus 2 Corinthians 6:17-18 KJV Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, [18] And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

To anyone hearing this, the end of my video cut off but I wanted to tell you that repentance is a change of mind about who we are and who God is. He is Holy and we are sinners , all of us. There is no one good but God, we all sin and fall short. You don’t have to be who you are in your sin and that doesn’t define you when Christ can make you brand new, no matter what the world says you can be a new creation, your past can be washed away.. you can be a daughter (or son) of God if you put your trust in Jesus Christ for your eternal salvation. Church people fail; they are sinners too but Christ will never fail us if we trust him.

@DrFrankTurek Ask the Lord for help. As the hymn says, He is able to deliver thee. As many have stated already - confession, prayer, and of course an actual desire to quit.

What's the best way to overcome a habitual sin?

@yesiwetmyplants Did you ever read John 3:16? The first condition is believe.

What exactly does it mean to walk in the light? And why is it important to strive against sin. saltwaterheart.com/2026/03/25/wal…

@rabbriansamuel The punishment still remains. The wages of sin is death.

Yeshua took the punishments of the Laws away. He didn't take the Laws away. This is basic New Testament.

Correct interpretation is of God. That clearly means one person can be correct. It is not a matter of enthroning ones private thoughts. Genesis 40:8 KJV And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you.

In this exchange, he said, "No one person gets to decide what the Bible teaches." Then he described a process where the individual reads the text, studies grammar and context, consults scholars and the fathers, and then determines what Scripture means. So yes, one person does decide in the end. Himself. That is private judgment. That is Sola Scriptura in practice. It is the exaltation and enthronement of one's private thoughts and feelings.

@Operator037 @yesiwetmyplants Is that word respect my sacrifice by keeping my commandments. And do not trample my blood underfoot by continuing in sin?

@DeanNelsonHoff @yesiwetmyplants The blood of Jesus would like a word, Dean.

@clearwa51830290 @yesiwetmyplants The wages of sin is the second death which is Hell and eternal damnation.

@DeanNelsonHoff @yesiwetmyplants are you saying physical, spiritual or both? we believe in the death burial and resurrection and are sealed by the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption. if Christ saved you, he knew every sin you would commit before he saved you. He keeps us, we do not keep ourselves.

@yesiwetmyplants 1 John 1:7 KJV But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. - Some people are like I don't know, that sounds like work.
