Wow. I didn’t read this whole thing. Let’s just say it like this - I suck so bad that no matter what I do, it is not good enough. Ok? I CANNOT redeem myself. But if I believe in God, and that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that is ENOUGH. And if I believe that, I will do good things.
I starred this thread to challenge the Works Faith guys to step up and regale is with the accounts of their heroic holy deeds. They haven’t because they can’t. Like all of us, regenerate or non- regenerate, they are sinners whether they are willing to be honest with that fact or not.
Our “good deed” in all likelihood will not be apparent to us. What we think of as good deeds need to be repented ot.
I don’t agree that what we think is good is actually evil, and needs to be repented of. What I know is that I suck, and I can’t save myself. Jesus did that for me. But because he did that, I want to be better than I am.
