Do Works Prove You're REALLY Saved? w/ Allen Parr | My Response

Why are Christians nit picking other Christians?? There’s a difference between attacking Joel Osteen and attacking a faith through grace and Christ alone Christian. Are you self righteous? Teachers and pastors will be judged much greater. Just let the Lord deal with him the same as He will deal with you. A lot of what you say makes sense, yes, but you don’t have to put Allen in blast. Here’s a challenge, communicate with Allen and make a video about talking points. I would respect that a lot more than being snobbish towards a brother in Christ.

[@ginaidoma5925]

This is so wrong on so many levels. Let me put it this way.... Jesus did all the work necessary to save everyone. So the issue of works in a Christian life is for rewards in Heaven. Works have nothing to do with validating salvation...whether it's someone else trying to validate your salvation or yourself trying to validate your own salvation. What a person must understand is salvation itself. Only a righteous person can go to Heaven. The scriptures say no one is righteous...no not one. So how do people get to Heaven? It is only through the IMPUTED RIGHTEOUSNESS of Jesus Christ to the believer. Those who put their faith in THE FINISHED WORK of Jesus Christ on the cross are imputed His righteousness. You do not go to Heaven because your sins are forgiven. You go because you believe your sins are forgiven by what Christ did on the cross. Faith is what pleases God...not works. Trusting in the finished work of Jesus is what you model your life on...not being a goodie two-shoes.

[@SlayingSin]

​@BouncySlim1 you are twisting Scripture to your own destruction. We can not tell who is a brother or a sister by which fruits of the spirit are manifest in the flesh. The verse you are quoting, and attempting to twist for your fake and perverted gospel of works salvation, is not about knowing a brother or sister bu their works, it is about how you can know a false prophet by their fruits. And these feuits are NOT their works, it is what they are professing, with their mouth. You can know a brother or a sister that same way also, if they profess that Lord Jesus Christ died for their sins, was buried, and ressurected from the dead, they are a brother and a sister in Christ. If you are looking for fruits of the Spirit to be manifest in the flesh, you've fundamentally completely misunderstood the Gospel. Do you not know that God desires His people to worship Him in SPIRIT and in truth? Not in the flesh?

Right on brother. I was trapped in that works to be saved garbage myself. Works is great for rewards in heaven for sure but being saved is by believing what Jesus did for us on the cross. He shed his BLOOD for us. These so called Christian churches that teach you can lose salvation and we need works are nothing more than the daughters of the Rome Catholicism.

I think you are right. There are very few. Most have some form of works or self righteousness. Catholicism is works. Any denomination that believes you can lose your salvation is of works and/or self righteousness. Any denomination that misapplies persevering, "back loading" works onto faith is perverting the gospel. When you get down to it, and I have thought about this, only a small percentage of congregations are preaching the gospel correctly. Catholicism: faith plus works Faith plus works, trusting in ones works or own self righteous ness to stay saved, or who believe in forfeiture of salvation in some way, includes: Episcopalianism Methodistism Lutheranism Pentecostals (Assemblies of God, Church of God, Church of God in Christ, etc ) Church of Christ "Back Loaders" of Salvation that express that lack of good works indicates one was never saved, or that emphasize stopping sinning or repenting from sins, to be saved, this adding their own "righteousness" to the finished work of Christ: Calvinists denominations or churches, such as Presbyterians, a substantial percentage of Baptists, as well as others. When you get down to it, with the exception of non-Calvinistic Baptists, some non denominational congregations, and some others, tge vast majority ( seems like 95-97 percent) either teach works, or add works, either knowingly or unknowingly, or teach loss of salvation on account of the believer.

Another way to frame this is to follow the interpretive view of those who see “faith in Christ” as generally meaning in the Greek, “the faithfulness of Christ”. So, we believe (trust, place our faith) in the Faithful One. It is Jesus’ faithfulness to the Father that secures our salvation, not our wavering, inconsistent partial faithfulness. This seems to be a better solution than viewing our security as either based on our obedience or based on our initial confession.

This is why we are called to show unconditional love to a world incapable of it: because it’s the unconditional clause of the gospel that makes it hard for us to believe fully. We do not see true love in ourselves or the world, that it’s hard to identify, let alone place faith in. This is why simply bearing fruit of the spirit brings light to the dim world, and releases seeds that the Lord can bless to germination.

The thief on the cross is a bad example. Jesus had the power to forgive sims while on earth. Additionally the thief on the cross was under the old covenant not the new Jesus had not died yet. In order for a covenant to come in effect there has to be the death of a testator the bible clearly teaches this. Again the thief on the cross was under the old testament.

Amen, I still have sins in my body and it's very hard to control and be a good Christian. I believe that we are saved by Grace. I was always not sure if I'm really Saved.

Very good explanation.

[@tenfold_rise5703]

We aren't going to pull a hard reset and just stop sinning, just because we believe in Jesus Christ. It is good to turn away from your sins, but that doesn't erase the fact that we've still sinned. We all need to believe in the lord Jesus Christ. Repent from what ever is stopping you from believing on the lord Jesus Christ. It is by grace ye are saved through faith and not of our selves. It is a gift from God. Not of works lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2-8-9)

[@watchmansascha4764]

These people are simply carnal in their thinking. That's the problem. The focus on the flesh, not on the Spirit. They brush faith to the side and put the spotlight on works. It's always the same "oh yeah sure you have to believe, BUT...." or they quote "the demons also believe and tremble" (omitting half of the verse) and so forth. This shows that they may not be saved because they downplay faith, when in the bible it's FAR more emphasized than works ever are. In fact it's the most important thing. As Paul says: "Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?" (Gal 3:3 KJV) The sad thing is that if you think you need to prove your salvation by works (and you are saved), then those works will most likely all be burned up.

“Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭3:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬

[@treyspencer3101]

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:21‭-‬23‬ ‭KJV‬‬ [21] Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. [22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? [23] And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. There is only two things you can conclude from this passage. Either their works were not good enough to save them OR their works were compltely irrelevent. You can't say they didn't have works. These people didn't say "but Lord, I have believed on thy name" no, they justified themselves by the "wonderful" works they did. So again, either their works were not good enough, or they were irrelevent. And I think the part of this passage that's as telling as anything else is the end of the passage where Jesus affirms "I NEVER knew you". That part is very important. These are not people who Jesus knew for a short time but then they fell away. Jesus says to them "I NEVER knew you". So these are people that thought they believed in Jesus, they did many wonderful works in his name, and Jesus NEVER knew them. So these are not people who fell away from the faith, they never even had the faith to begin with. What's missing? FAITH! What were they putting their faith in? Their WORKS. They gave Jesus lip service, but at the end of the day, the thing they were counting on to get them to heaven was their works, NOT JESUS. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved. Amen

Amen Onorato Diamante...excellent! I have to LOL...because these pastors are all cut from the same cloth...so proud...you can see it right away...Yet, It really isn't funny, and we need to pray for them...they just can't let salvation be solely of Christ...and do you notice that they all think you have to pray or ask to be saved when the gospel is by simply believing...they are so close to the truth, yet they can't see the forest for the trees. They also never explain that yes, a Christian can live anyway he wants but God will discipline them if they get too far off track...He is very loving and patient, but God will take a rod to His Children, like all good parents do.

Works backloaders might say that believing on Jesus is not enough for a man to be saved, that he also needs to be circumcised. Or, works backloaders might say a man doesn’t need to be circumcised in order to be saved but if the man is really saved, he will want to be circumcised. However, if being circumcised proves that a man is saved, then the implied stipulation is that a man must be circumcised in order to be saved. In any case, what saith the scripture: Galatians 6:15-16 KJV 15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. 16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God. In other words, works backloaders do not align with the RULE of no works for salvation. Whether it be circumcision or some other work that a man hasn’t fulfilled, the point I’m making is that works do not save us, prove we are saved, or keep us saved.

[@Daves2024]

I know I am saved because I follow the will of the Father which is to believe in Jesus for my salvation. However, I do want to do good things and pray that I will be guided to carry the light of Jesus out into the world to help. But I don’t know what to do and I don’t feel inspired or guided to do anything yet. What do I do now? I know I am a wretched sinner and can do nothing of myself.

I watched both of Allen's videos and I don't think he's preaching you can work your way into salvation or that a certain amount of works secure your salvation. .. What I got was that if you are saved, the spirit works within you to do good works. The good works is evidence of salvation, not salvation itself. ......

[@bsosborne6121]

So, I used to watch some of Mr. Parr's videos a long time ago, but I remember seeing some videos of his on Seventh Day Adventists, SDA's, and in one of those videos, if I remember correctly, he says he has family members that are SDA'S. He offers up disagreements with SDA'S but minimizes those differences with conservative evangelical Christianity. I knew he was in great error then, as Seventh Day Adventism is a cult, in my opinion, and that group is not Christian.

[@bloodboughtbigphilr8266]

To be fair to Allen, he pulled that video down as on reflection, he thought he was being too generous to the SDA's and hadn't done his homework. He basically gave an SDA representative a free platform to present what they believe and being a sneaky crowd, the wording was tailored to make them appear as evangelicals albeit with some inconsequential differences. Allen recognised his error there.

[@bsosborne6121]

@bloodboughtbigphilr8266 OK, I didn't know that since I stopped watching his channel at that time. I appreciate the information. However, if Mr. Parr is an advocate of Lordship Salvation, and I'm not saying he is. He just sounds like it, then that belief and SDA I think have similarities. The striving for perfection, things you must do in order to be saved, except SDA'S really place their faith in Ellen G. White as much as they do The Lord Jesus Christ, since they hold her writings and visions pretty much on the same level as the Holy Bible.

[@bloodboughtbigphilr8266]

@@bsosborne6121 Allen is not a frontloader and I consider him a brother in the Lord. However, he has got into a backdoor form of Lordship 'salvation' where works are viewed as evidence of saving faith. Allen calls his position works produced salvation which he sets forth as middle ground between Free Grace and Lordship salvation. The danger with this is that it shifts the ground of assurance from resting on Christ's Finished Work to subjective evaluation of performance. This will either produce despairing saints or conceited Pharisees. He does need to be taken to task on this but he does accept that saved Christians can have dry seasons and backslide, not grow much in the faith staying babes and be carnal in many areas of their life.

Just because you think you're "good" sometimes, it doesn't make you a "good" person all the time. Therefore, by God's standard of good, you aren't good at all. Only The Lord God is Good.
