Great versus on Faith and Salvation

Romans 10:17
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
The word of God is the Bible so this points out how very important it is to read the Bible.

Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

2 Timothy 3:15
And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

Romans 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

1 Peter 1:9
Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

Hebrews 7:25
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth, to make intercession for them.

Mark 16:16
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Acts 16:30-31
...And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

Acts 10:43
To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Romans 10:9
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

1 Timothy 2:3-4
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

1 Timothy 4:10
For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

1 John 4:14-15
And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

1 John 5:1
Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.

Revelation 3:20
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Here are some versus that indicate that salvation is 100% done by God. In other words not even our faith (independent from God) or our "accepting Christ" had anything to do with it. These concepts were brought to my attention after reading the topics on Salvation from the book "Topics from the Open Forum" (www.familyradio.com)

John 3:27
John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.

John 6:44
No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

John 6:65
And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

John 15:16
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;...

note: I have deleted pretty much all the entire past entries, as I said I would edit them,

but, as I looked through the titles, so much has changed in me, I just couldn't justify today, leaving them up,

NOT so much the subject matter, but the anger and rage that I had, and because now I know, that the answer isn't hate,

the answer isn't becoming like the enemy to humanity, which comes in many forms,

the answer isn't lashing out...

it isn't denial either, nor is it hiding under a rock. I am, going to be writing on all the former topics,

but this time, I will be writing, from a new perspective, one that I know, is the right answer,

and yes, Yes, that answer, IS JESUS CHRIST,

the Word of God.

I do have another blog, that is very different from this one, I started it, about the same time, I came back to my faith,

I wanted to keep this blog up, to keep up the posts in regards to the misogyny suffered by women under Islam,

and I still, agree that the truth in our cultural relativist world needs to be told,

BUT it needs to be told, with the Word of God because ONLY the Word of God, can bring freedom, Only the Word of God, can set us free,

Only the Word of God, can reveal the lies of the enemy, Satan,

the king of yes, misogyny, the hater of all women,

the hater of life, the hater of God, the hater of God's creation.

There is, an excellent website for Christian feminists, that IS NOT, fundamentalist, and in fact, they are really confronting the lies of misogyny that have been tolerated in many denominations, and in fact, its getting much worse today,

but its not just women, and women's rights,

false prophets have twisted God's Word to promote capitalism, to promote selfishness, to promote slavery of other nations or inequality, to promote a androcentric patriarchy that is NOT Biblical, or Christ like,

there IS a lot of false teachings, just as Jesus, warned. There are,

Pharasectical (sic) Christians, legalists, literalistic legalists, who, just like the Scribes and Pharasees, knew the laws,

but they didn't know God.

They missed the mark, so to speak,

but, regardless, Jesus is faithful always, and I believe,

in these last days, there will be such evil and belief that evil is good, and that there is the anti-christ,

I believe Jesus Christ is coming soon, when I don't know, and whether or not its pre-tribulation or not,

I don't know, all I know, is that,

this world, everything predicted in the Word of God, is coming to pass.

And the more I read the Word and pray, the more I seek God, the more, He reveals to me, His love, His never ending love and grace, that He is NOT a misogynist, that He is merciful,

and Righteous.

He has changed my life and He has changed me,

I look back and am appalled, at my sin and myself, yet He forgives and as He said, on the Cross,

IT IS FINISHED.

Now my trust is in Him, not in politics, not in activism, not in raging against injustice,

and the answers, lie in Him.

I will be writing on the series, Is God a Misogynist, because His Word, is powerful and alive and will shed light in the darkness,

also, I will be writing on God's Economics, God's rules for taking care or being good stewards of His creation, that includes our planet and the animals,

not in the legalist sense but in how God is love and Love, does not harm. Not that God doesn't allow evil, to deal with evil and sin, He does,

and we are to stand strong in opposition to evil and the banality of evil, and on that I will continue to do,

but we are to do so, with humility and always awareness, that we are all sinners, we have all fallen short of the glory of God, and there is no way to salvation But through Him,

in peace,
