    Do I need the Gospel after becoming a Christian?

    It doesn't contribute to our salvation though since Christ is our Savior who SAVES. What we believe is the forgiveness of our sins won at the cross. How we live is because we love God and our neighbor. We don't have to earn our way to heaven and never could fully earn it anyway.

    Justification: By OUR works or CHRIST'S works?

    The good news is that because we cannot fully obey the Law, Jesus died in our place because HE could fully obey it. No one here condones sinning. Have you seen such a post?

    Do I need the Gospel after becoming a Christian?

    It's so dangerous to give self so much importance as to believe that they contribute to their salvation and as you've pointed out and making Christ irrelevant.

    I forgive you for your bad behavior toward me.

    What is sin?

    You weren't forgiven because you stopped your sin. You were forgiven because Jesus, before you were ever born, took your sin to the cross and it was forgiven. God accepted the sacrifice for all your sins. Then you were born. It's a BOY! You committed sins and the Holy Spirit showed you your...

    Can those called to serve forgive sins?

    I can confess to anyone my sins. Jesus forgives me because of the cross and my pastor can also give me the forgiveness from the cross by the authority of Jesus. It's not the pastor giving me HIS forgiveness.

    Justification: By OUR works or CHRIST'S works?

    Law and Gospel distinction is important for God's children to learn so they don't turn themselves into their own saviors all the while insisting it's Jesus.

    Do I need the Gospel after becoming a Christian?

    So you keep returning to the Law to save you instead of the Gospel...that message that saves and gives us life and renewal. You keep twisting Law and Gospel thinking one is the other and that makes you your own Savior as Josiah keeps pointing out to you and it's called ME THEOLOGY. You make your...

    Can those called to serve forgive sins?

    The authority comes from Jesus--see post 48 that MoreCoffee has written and posted scripture. He gives that authority to the Church. The priests and pastors are the shepherds of the flock.

    Do I need the Gospel after becoming a Christian?

    When we know how to properly discern between Law and Gospel then we can see the importance of each. The Law shows us our sin and the Gospel forgives. But the Gospel is also what gives us faith! The Law does not give faith. For those who don't think they need the Gospel then they are starving...

    are we saved if we remain in sin -? no

    Yes, it's extremely tedious when someone name calls and then tries to repeatedly defend his rudeness and unloving behavior by attempting to say it was in the name of truth. Name calling is not condoned by scripture in that attitude and you need to learn the difference. What if I called you a...

    Do I need the Gospel after becoming a Christian?

    Wow, if only Adam and Eve could have followed the law enough to make themselves perfect again. I mean, they were right there walking WITH God! He is the all powerful and they were in His presence. Yet...as you say, Josiah, the law of what we are to do and not do isn't going to save us. We fall...

    What is sin?

    He hasn't provided one because he doesn't know any such people. Neither do I. We are all covered by Christ, but we still sin as it's been repeatedly pointed out. Those in denial don't want to face their sins.

    What is sin?

    Yes, there are people who seem to be very godly. Give them time though and you'll see that they make mistakes/errors/sins just like the rest of us. I haven't met a person yet who is sinless except for Jesus. We even see it here (sins) on this site even though some are in big denial ;)
