Great! It's no surprise that you have no interest in those who believe what God says.

You do teach an unfinished sacrifice for sin.
Your ignorance does not equate to my false teaching. Sorry. You are mistaking justification with sanctification, making them the same.

They are different, just as salvation and justification are different, but both are imparted when we believe the Gospel.

Believers are justified. Rom 5:1; 1 Cor 6:11;
Believers are sanctified. 1 Cor 1:2; Acts 26:18; 1 Cor 6:11; Heb 10:10

It does for people like you who refuse to believe it. For those of us who do believe it, it is effortless.

The proud believe they receive from God by working for it, and so they never receive anything. They, like Cain, make a sacrifice based on their own labor, but God only accepts those sacrifices based on His work.

The Cain's of this world hate those who receive God's blessing and did not work for it.

So are you saying Jesus' followers dont have any work to do?

How about Jesus' command of "go therefore make disciples of all nations...caching them to obey everything I have commanded you"?

What does this have to do with OP?

So you just sit back and let Jesus do all the work for you? Jesus is your Lord, not your servant. do you know that?

You can't even get your categories straight. Salvation and justification aren't different. Nor are they the same. One is part the other. In better terms, justification is part of salvation. As is sanctification. Election. Glorification. Etc.

I pointed out to YOU that they are not the same, yet they both accompany salvation. And i pointed out to you that salvation is NOT justification, nor is it sanctification.

HINT: That is why they are different words.


Let's start at the beginning and see what you actually know.

Who did Jesus die for?

Romans 4

4 Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt.

5 But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,

You are not his apostle. And certainly not in the Body of Christ. Romans 4.





Jesus saves completely. A9D-EL

Titus 1:10-11

For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, whose mouths must be stopped

You said "salvation and justification are different, but both are imparted when we believe the Gospel". That's like saying "eating cookies and cookies are different. But both happen when you eat cookies".

I will type slower for you this time. Justification is part of salvation. It is the declaration of that our sins are no longer credited to our account. It is also the declaration that that Christ's righteousness has been credited to us (see 2 Cor 5:21). This is PART of salvation. It isn't salvation proper. So when you say that justification and salvation "both accompany salvation" it presents category errors and makes no sense.

Much in the same way as the day of atonement was only for the Israelites (the chosen people), cross is for God's chosen people. It is a propitiation.
