Does John

[@AnnaApril15]

Thanks for your work. 💕 I’m disturbed at the amount of the folks that say they believe the Gospel but turn round and say lgbt are unsaveable. I think there are many free grace hypocrites and saying this secretly Calvinism but you guys aren’t. God bless ❤

Anyone can be born again IF they repent of their sins and believe in Christ.

@@2Chronicles714_Repenting and/or turning from sins might be admirable, and also very popular-widely promoted-but is it Biblical? Could you or would you not simply remain in your sins apart from Christ’s precious Person, His Work on the cross on our behalf? Repenting involves a change of mind-from saving one’s self to Jesus, Him doing the saving.

Judas Iscariot followed Jesus and did not believe in him, so it is possible to do. If following Jesus were sufficient for salvation, Judas would be saved, but obviously isn't. Thanks for the work you all do.

Grace Evangelical society, Yes. To your question. Don't believe Andrew Farley.

John 3:19-21,36 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. 20For EVERYONE WHO DOES WICKED THINGS HATES THE LIGHT and DOES NOT COME TO THE LIGHT, LEST HIS WORKS SHOULD BE EXPOSED. 21 But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God. 36Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. To merely say I believe while loving darkness,and living in unrepentant sin HATES THE LIGHT by not obeying the Son. Repentance followed by obedience results in a lifestyle change that is saving Faith.

So you’re relying on yourself for eternal life.

[@2Chronicles714_]

@karent743 I would be totally relying on my own ability IF I was too self righteous to humble myself to God admitting I'm a guilty vile sinner who won't change my mind and turning away from my sinfulled life and turning to and trusting Jesus as Lord and Savior making a commitment to serve God for the rest of my life Only a person who has been convicted of sin with Godly sorrow will repent and believe in the gospel. IF they aren't broken and repentant over their sins they certainly won't believe,since they have no desire to be made right with God.Only people that are convicted and a desire to be right with God will come to Jesus acknowledge sin by repenting. Repentance is the consequence of faith. It's God's will. 2 Corinthians 7:9-10 I now rejoice, not that you were made sorrowful, but that you were made sorrowful to the POINT OF REPENTANCE; for you were made sorrowful ACCORDING TO the WILL OF GOD, so that you might not suffer loss in anything through us. 10For the SORROW that is according to the WILL OF GOD PRODUCES A REPENTANCE WITHOUT REGRET, LEADING TO SALIVATION, but the SORROW OF THE WORLD PRODUCES DEATH. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, NOT WILLING FOR ANY TO PERISH, but for All TO COME TO REPENTANCE. Jeremiah 15:19 Therefore this is what the Lord says: “IF YOU REPENT, I will RESTORE YOU, that you may SERVE ME; IF you utter worthy, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman. Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them.

Whenever Jesus speaks, his followers ought to be all ears. When he begins, “Very truly I tell you,” there must be an immediate response of obedience. John 12:24-26 Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. He who loves his life loses it; and he who hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal. (IF) anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there shall My servant also be; (IF) anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him. One of the key realities of the Kingdom of God is that life springs from death. The time for meeting people and talk has come to an end. Jesus is saying that the hour has come for him to be glorified, to die like a kernel of wheat. What follows these verses is the instruction that Jesus expects his disciples [true believers] to live and die in the same way. God made us and called us to bear fruit, but as long as we hold on to the world and our old ways, it is impossible. Ironically, by loving and holding on to our life in this world, we lose it for the next, which is an infinitely greater loss. Lay down your life at the feet of Jesus. Die with him in order to live in him. In this way, you will bear fruit, perhaps a hundredfold (Matthew 13:1-20). If you are not willing to die both figuratively and even physically for the sake of Christ, you will not see the Kingdom of God.

[@kenyantrader1084]

Isn't eternal life a free gift? And have you laid down your life? Seeing that you are here, I don't think so, so by your own admission you aren't saved then

[@2Chronicles714_]

@kenyantrader1084 You obviously have no interest in surrendering your life to Christ otherwise you wouldn't have a negative response to scripture that speaks of obedience. John 3 clearly speaks of obedience. Yes I would lay my life down for Jesus would you?

[@kenyantrader1084]

@2Chronicles714_ if the disciple Peter denied Jesus three times because he wasn't ready to lay his life down for him who do you think you are? You are just delusional and probably a reprobate, it is not us laying down our lives for Christ that saves us, rather it is Christ who laid his life down for us on the cross that we are saved. Keep playing holy self righteous and trusting in your obedience and see where you end up.

[@Clod-Hopper]

For you attend a church in which you disagree with nearly every sermon? I doubt it so why come onto here and be a tare? Go over to the many channels that preach your version of salvation and stop being a hindrance to those who have left that bondage. I can assure you that you aren't leading anyone to salvation, not nearly to the extend of the Parable of the Seed and Sower and yet you pride yourself into believing unless your fruit is evident you are not a Believer. Most people on here recognize your pride and ignorance and keep scrolling. How many lost souls have you led to the Lord that are still walking with him today....neither do you experience rest but those you poison don't either.
