[TruthTalk] Christian Perfection

[Judy Taylor]

From: "Wm. Taylor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> There is no doubt but that I will spend the rest of my life having to rewind and re-remind myself that it is by grace that I have been saved through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ, that not even my faith counts as that which saves me, because that too can only be considered a work in the grand plan of salvation.   jt: Bill, I believe the faith vs faithfulness idea in your doctrine is in error. I don't have time right now to find scriptural proof right now because I've got to go somewhere this morning.   All the scriptures you posted should read "faith" - What does Hebrews 11 mean if faith is not important?  The people named would be no different than anyone else; that chaper is included as an example for those of us who have come later.  Faith and fear are opposite and to walk in fear is to walk in sin.  Until we deal with the fear in our lives we will not ever be victorious Christians.  Jesus did His part, he provides the victory but it will not benefit us or others if we will not walk in it.  Yes it's His faith.  I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me.   judyt
