We all have to give an account, even those who are not destined for "hell fire". I don't know about you, but I have no excuse.

You can ask the Lord Jesus Christ when you give him an account. Paul's letters are direct revelation from him. And the answers are always in the text. Except when they aren't. The author of the Gospel of Luke, also wrote Acts of the Apostles. 1And certain men came down from Judea and taught...

It is. Here is what James said. 14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? You tell me the real text.

We know the claims, it is contrary to scripture. Peter's church fell. And Paul was raised up to take grace to the gentiles to drive Peter's church to jealousy. The self proclaimed Bishop's of Rome could be referred to in scripture. Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with...

It is a yes/no question.

According to James, can faith save him?

Scripture refutes you. Paul explicitly states he is the first, the prototype.

Faith has more than one meaning. For the gentiles in the dispensation of grace it means trust and belief. Trust and belief will not save you in the covenant of circumcision. Allegiance to your duty, and faith in God are both needed.

1Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ, our hope, 2 To Timothy, a true son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord...... 15 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ...

Do you remember Sozo? Of course you do. While discussing this same topic....15 years ago he said James was wrong. He was reading the Bible as it states, not what he wants it to say. This is why Paul says divide the gospel. Do not try to reconcile it. Do not apply the law of Moses to you. No...

Correct. We are justified by the cross, but the starting point for the church is with Paul. Paul explicitly states this.

Peter at Pentecost repeated it. James in his letter repeated it. Leaders of the circumcision that BELIEVED repeated it in Acts 15. James said Abraham was justified by offering up his son. He didn't say it was evidence of his faith, something you don't understand in the prior paragraph. He said...

You don't see the problem? Why was Peter so confused in Acts 10? The Holy Spirit gave him his utterance.
