No, they didn't.

Paul taught grace.

What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh?For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt.But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,just as David also describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works:“Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, And whose sins are covered;Blessed is the man to whom the L ord shall not impute sin.” - Romans 4:1-8 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans4:1-8&version=NKJV


James and John taught works.

Spoiler
What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble!But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God.You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. - James 2:14-26 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James2:14-26&version=NKJV

Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. - 1 John 3:4-9 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1John3:4-9&version=NKJV

If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also. - 1 John 4:20-21 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1John4:20-21&version=NKJV

The Elder, To the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those who have known the truth,because of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever:Grace, mercy, and peace will be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.And now I plead with you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning: that we love one another.This is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it. - 2 John 1:1-6 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2John1:1-6&version=NKJV


Paul preached to Jews and Gentiles, always going to the Jews first.

But Peter, James, and John never preached or wrote to anyone but Jews.

James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad: Greetings. - James 1:1 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James1:1&version=NKJV

Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To the pilgrims of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied. - 1 Peter 1:1-2 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1Peter1:1-2&version=NKJV

In fact, after Acts 9, Peter and the rest of the twelve don't even leave Israel.

Jesus didn't preach grace because he hadn't gone to the cross yet.

Jesus didn't preach grace because He was teaching Law to Israel, working with them so that they would become His spokesnation. to the rest of the world.

Jews and Gentiles are both saved the same way - by God's unmerited grace.

That is true today, agreed.

But it was not always true. That is the error you're making.

You guys have been judging without good reason all the time.

Your statements are so biased, unfair and hateful.

Jesus says to judge justly.

You guys are not judging justly, period.

Says the unsaved woman.

If such is actually the case (God knoweth), that still does not make her observation any less true, if valid.

Rom. 14:5; 5:6-8.

"If her observation is valid, then her observation is true."

Except most of what I've seen from those she is condemning is truth.

As for my claim that she is unsaved, she herself claims not to know if she is saved, and she certainly does not show herself as being saved as by the grace of God, rather that she says her obedience to Jesus' words (during His earthly ministry, not to Paul, whom she claims is a liar, or at the very least rejects that his writings are a part of scripture), if she can keep them, will save her.

Her point is a point you have obviously chosen to overlook.

And her point is valid - for even in Scripture, the witness of those considersd outside the will of God is acknowledged, when valid.

Case in point, of various that could easily be cited; the Apostle Paul's conceding the valid point of an individual like the following...

Titus 1:12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. 1:13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; 1:14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.

Nevertheless, Rom. 14:5 towards ya, in memory of Rom. 5:6-8.

Most of you claim to be saved, it is just self assurance which is arrogance.

Above all you, I don't see any of you to follow Jesus or Christian.

Isn't this Christian site?

Your comments are just strange to say the least.

Non-responsive.I did not ask you what it is called. Observe, the deception, bobbing and weaving, paty cake/patty cake, dodge ball. To wit-I asked her, based upon her on record argument, of...



"only one gospel..."(her words)...


What is the gospel of Christ? Specfics, toots-content. Chapter, verse.
Is it right next to the verse that says....





There is only one dispensation - the dispensation of sin which is fast coming to an end.

?


Weeks, and the admitted devil child will not identify this "only one gospel."


Chapter, verse.


Why is that, Damion? Rhetorical q: you don't know, as you've not picked up a bible in years, much less read it, or studied it. My evidence?You.


She is on record, satanically asserting that her saint Judas preached:

"Christ died for your sins....was raised for your justification...Believe this good news to be saved!!!!," per Luke 9:6 KJV.


Satanic liar, as you assert that there is just one piece of good news in the bible and all good news/gospels pertains to justification.


What is the gospel of Christ? Specfics, toots-content. Chapter, verse.

And if you don't follow Jesus, there is no salvation, people.

1.100% compliance-then everyone fails, devil child.

2. Translation: The cross was unnecessary, and Christ died in vain.




Tell us why Christ died-what happened 2000 years ago, at Calvary, and the resurrection, and why?



Silencio, for years.


Watch the sound byte, non response, cliche, craft avoidance/diss, that is her MO for years-watch. Guaranteed. She will not expound.

You can't even believe in the new covenant because you were brain-washed like the loser you are.

And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children’s children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever. Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore. Eze. 37:24-26

This is not talking about the literal David seeing he had been dead for 400 years when this was written!!!

It's symbolic language for Christ and the new covenant for believers!!!

The NC does not apply to respective members of the boc, wolfie, as we are justified by the blood, apart from any covenant. You and your daddy devil hate that, and you are fdrinding your big, bad, wolfie chops, as you read this.


I stay on topic, and the topic is this:


What is the gospel of Christ? Specfics, toots-content. Chapter, verse. Identify this "only one gospel" you cite. Did Judas preach it?


Watch the continued evasion, bobbing and weaving, "Chairman of the Fed" saying NADA act, punt, grunts, snorts, emotional outburst/pining, obfuscation, back peddling, until she is again ensnarled in ropes,cobwebs, strings, yarn, neurons, as a twisted pretzel in the wind.....never addressing a simple, yet critical, doctrinal question.

"they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children’s children for ever"

She: symbolic

Satanic, as she can "prove" anything with that debate ender.


Previously...the deceit, sophistry, of those that employ symbolism to craftily, subtily(Genesis 3:1 KJV)dismiss the literal, the physical, events/people/places/things/objects.....including prophecy, and satanically can thus "prove" anything they want. To wit:




Isaiah 2:3 KJVAnd many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.


Micah 4:2 KJV And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob;
and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

Her "response(crafty dismissal):


Symbolic of the church or the household of faith.

She can "prove" anything.



Matthew 28 KJV

6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

Epoisses: lol!!! Symbolic of Christ just "stepping it up," "rising to the occasion!!!!!" You are in a cult.....Wa....Wa....Wa...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
