Baptist Evangelical here: YES we are saved and cannot lose it because of God's perseverance of the Saints. It's not once saved always saved; its God's Holy Spirit is what saves us , its not our goodness or eating the sacraments that imparts sanctification. Ephesians 2:8,9 the Greek is a Salvation that starts but continues throughout our lives. So, Justification as well as Sanctification is a result of a changed life through the working of the Holy Spirit. It's His motivation that causes us to do works that are righteous and acceptable to God.

Although we are freed from sin (Romans 6:18, 22) we nevertheless retain our sinful nature (Romans 7:5,18,25). Thank God for two passages of Scripture that teach us how to share in the divine nature: First, 2 Peter 1:3-4 His divine power has bestowed on us everything that makes for life and devotion, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and power. Through these, he has bestowed on us the precious and very great promises, so that through them you may come to share in the divine nature, after escaping from the corruption that is in the world because of evil desire. Second, 2 Corinthians 7:1 Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of flesh and spirit, making holiness perfect in the fear of God.

Faith alone. Works as a result of faith. The verses you've provided show this. Demonstrate their repentance by their deeds. In other words, demonstrate that they're saved by their deeds. In other words, beer fruit as evidence of your faith. Not to cause your salvation. Faith without works is not faith. Faith naturally produces works. The Holy Spirit doesn't allow fruitless trees in His kingdom. If you don't have fruit, then you don't have a faith that is legitimate. There is no evidence that you have salvation. I don't understand how you guys mix this up. Works cannot save you. Period. Faith alone. Then works prove your faith.

@@Andromedon777 You're wrong, my friend. I don't need the rest, but let's look into it. I mentioned Romans 3:28"For we maintain that a person is justified by faith APART from the works of the law." I'll prove to you soon enough that it is BOTH faith and works working independently which save and prove. Your error is thinking that faith alone causes a man to have works, but this is false. We see that Balaam in the old testament had faith and even boasted to have eyes that were open when he was in the presence of God. This says a great deal about him, but more is also said when the princes request his presence to curse the Israelite camp, because they know that whoever he blesses is blessed, and whoever he curses is cursed. These are the gifts of a priest of God, while the righteous are blessings or curses upon others by the actions and words of others. Yet, what do we see from Balaam. Was he not found and killed together with the Midianites who practiced divination and other detestable practices? He shared in their deeds and their festivities, otherwise he would have not been found there. If he had faith, how is it that he joins the faithless in their fate? Now consider the centurion who gave gifts to the poor, but who did not know the gifts of faith. Peter was sent to his house and the Holy Spirit was given to them to share when they BECAME acquainted with the way of faith in Christ. What about Apollos, who only knew John's baptism? He was doing the will of heaven while still being ignorant of Christ and resurrection, but received the fullness of that faith by such works. What of Saul before he became Paul? Even as he was healed, what did our Lord say regarding his expectations of Paul? Even though he was revealed the savior and knew faith, he was required to suffer to be worthy of the Name. How does one merit anything, if his acts and trials and pains are not attributed to their full cooperation? I will say that you are as blind as Paul was if you think faith alone can save you. Even the demons proclaim that Jesus is the Son of God, yet they continue to bathe with the pigs.

It’s funny to me that when James says you are not saved by faith alone, Protestants will read more into it, but when Paul says you’re not saved by WORKS OF THE LAW, they read that last part out. To make what is clear, obscured, and what is obscure, clear. Peter even warned against misunderstanding Paul’s letters. It just seems too ironic to be true.

"... and unless you can see that it's weird, you haven't fully understood what we're talking about." (48:00+/-) Right! Although for me, personally, the Lutheran idea of "consubstantiation" makes the best and simplest sense. Why can't you think that Jesus is actually, spiritually present in the bread and wine, which is, in some way, changed invisibly by his Presence and grace for us. If you want to say it's not just bread and wine, then good. We are not just old, ordinary humans either once we have truly encountered Jesus and accepted his loving grace. We become children of God. And the bread and wine, too, become his body and blood, soul and divinity, through Jesus' Presence... because He said so. I don't have to understand it. It's a mystery of faith.

I feel troubled when Catholics say that apostasy is a full rejection of the Christian Faith when it should be defined as the full rejection of Catholicism. Cameron Bertuzzi is a Protestant who wears a shirt that says, "Btw, Christianity is true." So I could ask what doctrines it includes when there are about 40,000 Protestant denominations. Is Christian doctrine is what's left when you remove the heresies? Is it composed of only the doctrines that C.S. Lewis defended in his book "Mere Christianity?" If I become a Christian by merely accepting Christ as my Lord and as my Savior, am I free to believe anything that the Bible seems to teach? The phrase "complete rejection of the Christian faith" is vague because it's hard to know what it is that the phrase "the Christian faith" signifies. I suggest that the Catechism of the Catholic Church defines apostasy as "complete rejection of the Christian faith" because its authors wrote vaguely to be tactful. I say that a religion is Christianity in itself if and only if that religion is Catholicism. What's more, I suggest that Presbyterianism, Lutheranism, Methodism, and so forth are different religions we describe with the general word "Christianity." The phrase "Roman Catholicism" can confuse people, too. Is Roman Catholicism just the Roman Rite of the Catholic Church? Does it include, say, the Ukrainian and Maronite Rites? Is the Ukrainian Rite Catholic because the Catholic Church is headquartered at the Vatican in Rome? James White would tell you that if I commit a serious sin, I'm not a real Christian. That's an example of the no true Scotsman fallacy. It's a way to dismiss, excuse, or explain away evidence against a belief. In his book Catholicism and Fundamentalism, Karl Keating says that the once-saved-always-saved doctrine prevents the certainty it's meant to give. If a real Christian wouldn't sin seriously, do I need to accept Christ each time I sin that way? Each time I sin that way, should I think, "Oh no, I accepted Christ. Maybe he didn't accept me in return."?

Lutheranism, Methodism, Presbyterianism, Pentecostalism, Dutch Reformed Christianity, and so forth are different religions we describe with the umbrella word "Christianity."

@@christopherskipp1525 Mr, Skipp, I know there are many methods to interpret the Bible. So I suggested St, Vincent's Commonitory to let him tell you what method he recommended in the 5th century. If you've read Chapters 2-3 in it, you know that he believes that we need to rely partly on the Church's authority to help us believe what has been believed always, everywhere, and by all. He's not saying, "Just believe your prelate," since he admits that some prelates have become heretics. There are many methods to use to interpret the Bible. The question is how we know which interpretations are accurate. However many denominations there are, disagreements still splinter them. So it seems that some interpretive methods aren't working very well. Evangelicals tell me that Scripture is their "final authority." The Bible is clearly authoritative. But it can't do what living authorities do. It can't tell me, "Bill, that's not what I meant. Let me explain." When Christians say that the Bible interprets itself, they mean that you can use some parts of it to interpret other parts of it. But what if some parts only seem to support others when someone misinterprets the supported ones, their supporters, or both? How much does the Bible's infallibility help us if no one can interpret the Bible infallibly? Many ignore what the early Church taught because they believe that the Bible is all they need to learn from. But then should it surprise them when interdenominational disagreement suggests that no one knows what the Bible means? How much do the disagreements at least seem to discredit it for, say, atheists, agnostics, and pagans? I believe I found the 40k at (HTTP://www.adherents,com), Even if 40k is a wildly inflated number, there are at least hundreds of Christian sects. That's enough evidence to show that some interpretive methods aren't working very well. In the Book of Mormon, Moroni 10, I think you'll read that the Holy Ghost will tell you that it's divinely inspired. They think He gives them what some Protestants call "internal testimony." Will internal testimony tell me how many books belong in the Bible when even some Protestant Bibles have 73 books instead of 66? How well are scholarly methods working if we can't even know for sure what canon is complete?

I'll leave this here to show an example of the heresy of Modernism. Is there a contradiction between Vatican II’s declaration on religious liberty (Dignitatis Humanae) and traditional Catholic doctrine as expressed in numerous encyclicals, and most especially in Pope Pius IX’s Quanta Cura? In recent years some intellectual conservatives have audaciously denied that there is any such contradiction. Before commenting on their attempts, let us remind ourselves of the texts: Quanta Cura: “…against the doctrine of Scripture, of the Church, and of the Holy Fathers, they do not hesitate to assert that ‘the best condition of civil society is that in which no duty is attributed to the civil power of restraining by enacted penalties, offenders against the Catholic religion, except insofar as public peace may require.’ “From which totally false idea of social government they do not fear to foster that erroneous opinion, most fatal to the Catholic Church and the salvation of souls, called by Our Predecessor, Gregory XVI, insanity, viz., that ‘liberty of conscience and worship is the proper right of every man and ought to be legally proclaimed and asserted in every rightly constituted society’.” “...Amidst, therefore, such great perversity of depraved opinions, we, well remembering our Apostolic Office, and very greatly solicitous for our most holy Religion, for sound doctrine and the salvation of souls which is intrusted to us by God, and (solicitous also) for the welfare of human society itself, have thought it right again to raise up our Apostolic voice. Therefore, by our Apostolic authority, we reprobate, proscribe, and condemn all the singular and evil opinions and doctrines severally mentioned in this letter, and will and command that they be thoroughly held by all children of the Catholic Church as reprobated, proscribed and condemned.” Dignitatis Humanae (Vatican II): “This Vatican Council declares that the human person has a right to religious liberty. Such liberty consists in this: that all men must be immune to coercion whether on the part of individuals, social bodies or any human power so that in religious matters no one is constrained to act against his conscience or prevented from acting in accordance with his conscience in private and in public, alone or with others, within due limits [these due limits are defined in paragraph 7 as being those of public peace and morality]. “It further declares that the right to religious liberty is truly founded on the very dignity of the human person as known by the revealed word of God and reason itself. “This right of the human person to religious liberty in the juridical ordering of society is to be recognised so as to become a civil right.” Now to all appearances these texts are in radical contradiction on three points. Pope Pius IX condemns the following ideas: 1. all men have a right to liberty of conscience and of worship; 2. this right of religious liberty should be made a civil right in every well-ordered society; 3. the best state of society is that in which men’s civil right to religious liberty is limited only by the demands of public peace. These three points condemned by Pius IX are all three apparently taught by the Vatican II text. Moreover Pope Pius IX is exercising the Extraordinary Magisterium and teaches that these propositions are opposed to Holy Scripture (written divine revelation) while Vatican II declares its opposing doctrine to be founded on the revealed word of God and requires all Catholics to observe its teaching religiously. www.cmri.org/ novusordowatch.org/start-here/

Rather than dirty myself in the muddied semantics of this debate I would like to kindly remind you that Vatican II was an ecumenical council and as such all of its binding teachings are not only superior to ANY papal encyclical, but they are also protected by divine infallibility and as such cannot be false. You must trust the Holy Spirit will not allow any Pope to bind into law anything that would scandalize or weaken the Catholic faith.
