    Passive Righteousness

    Actually it's been presented differently so if you don't want to contribute in the thread you don't have to but I'm eager to discuss this stuff.

    Be good or you won't get into heaven

    I wanted to add that this thread is not saying to Christians TO GO AND SIN. There. That is said. No one is encouraging sin.

    Be good or you won't get into heaven

    Be good or you won't get into heaven. Have you heard that one? I've heard it...on plenty of Christian sites. I see people preaching Christ and then turn around and say But if you have to stop sinning or you won't get into heaven. Isn't that a contradiction? Are you relying on Jesus or are you...

    I like the caramel sauce with my ice cream although I don't eat ice cream too often.

    Passive Righteousness

    We don't earn salvation. At all. Nothing we do will add to what Jesus bought for us at the cross with His blood. We have no righteousness of our own to add to the mix. It's all God's righteousness which is a HUGE necessity.

    Cold air returns

    You have to blame the clothing manufacturers and store buyers of the products. When I started working again I couldn't find long sleeved thick clothing to wear in the wintertime. It was all short-sleeved sheer things which is ridiculous! So I ended up buying a sweater to put on the back of my...

    Passive Righteousness

    You guys don't have to respond in the thread then. I do enjoy discussing Christian theology and I found a quote that addressed something important so I posted it. There is nothing wrong with my wanting to look at this from another direction which I have done.

    Passive Righteousness

    Jesus knocking at the door is scripture addressing believers. Our response does not contribute to what God has already given to us. It does not add to it in any way or make it more solid.

    Passive Righteousness

    Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you are saved through faith, and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God; Yes, salvation is given to us by grace through faith and this faith is in the Savior who died on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins. The only thing that man can do is reject...

    Passive Righteousness

    I hope I have never suggested that God's righteousness is passive. Only our reception of it is termed passive because we do nothing but receive what He freely gives. Our reception isn't active in the way some think we have to reach out and take it or open it.

    Passive Righteousness

    Do you agree with what it means though? Do you agree that we have nothing to give to God or do in order to receive righteousness from Him because we are sinful? So that makes it a passive righteousness.

    Is Immersion required by Scripture when a baptism is performed?

    Early baptismal fonts in ancient churches are not large enough for immersion so we can see how it was not a demand that immersion be done for baptism.

    Cold air returns

    Not having your own thermostat is definitely something to worry about. It's like being stuck in an office where one guy is in charge of what the temperature is for the next 10 guys around him and he's hot all the time but doesn't realize women get colder...so that one woman has to wear her...

    Passive Righteousness

    I don't know who came up with "passive righteousness" but some of what I read up on it before my opening post was from Calvin.
