    What Would Be The Essential Components of Ensuring Eternal Life in Heaven.

    As typical for propounders of words, much confusion is perpetuated to fail to distinguish between the "Law" of Moses which is now abrogated, and the Law of Holiness unto God which is now commanded by Him. All "Lawless" people are damned to Hell. "Whoever commits sin transgressed also the law...

    Apostle Paul speaks of himself and other believers being "Constrained" and as "Slaves" unto the Lord Jesus. Hopefully, you will find an interest in what God's Word actually states, rather than try to think about the motives of other people. Have a lovely weekend.

    Actually Loving One's Neighbors As One Loves Themself.

    This is the Second Commandment verified by Jesus in Mark 12:31. It specifies that true Followers of Christ are to go further than mere tokenism when they encounter someone in significant need. The example would be in The Parable of the Good Samaritan found in Luke 10:25-37. The problem...

    What Would Be The Essential Components of Ensuring Eternal Life in Heaven.

    Remember, Matt. 5:16 has Jesus commanding "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and praise your Father in heaven." If you do not love all of your neighbors as you love yourself, it is okay. You can still be saved from Hell.

    What Would Be The Essential Components of Ensuring Eternal Life in Heaven.

    So sorry you are not reading well today, I will try to restate it. Christians are saved entirely by faith in the Lord Jesus the final sacrifice for sins. Any good deeds performed by Christians after being Saved are then rewarded at the Bema Judgement Seat by Jesus. This is specified in 2 Cor...

    Notice he will have no direct answer. Just as the Calvinists have no answer to the same question about Divine Determinism upon all of Creation.

    What Would Be The Essential Components of Ensuring Eternal Life in Heaven.

    Unfortunate ideology. Jesus said, "If you love me keep my Commands." Obedience to Commands will not bring spiritual Salvation unto Heaven, but obedience does bring: 1.) Temporal Beneficence and Pragmatic Outcomes. 2.) Bema Seat Rewards at the Return of Christ. Ignoring God's Commands thru...

    Have Any of the Popes Ever Issued a Sinful Edict?

    The first to come to mind is the proclamation thar no person can be accepted by God into Heaven apart from being a confirmed Catholic. The second would be that giving money to the Church on behalf of a deceased relative will help them escape Purgatory. A third one is the murderous Inquisition...

    Loving one's neighbor is the Second Command per Jesus Christ. Sorry to have not referred to it as such. The First Command is to love God.

    What Would Be The Essential Components of Ensuring Eternal Life in Heaven.

    Does your love cause or help you to love all your neighbors just as you love yourself, as Stanford stated? I am asking because I have never seen any person do that, and I would certainly not claim to do so myself. Is the Second Command a hyperbolic concept, such as is Jesus' directive to...

    How do you love your neighbor as yourself? Pay their mortgage and insurance? Yard work? Entertainment? Buy them a car? Buy them new clothes? Paint their house? Buy appliances? Gifts? What do you actually do for them on a routine basis beyond occasional tokenism?
