Ed: I take it you are referring to what Jesus said. Jesus stated plainly that the works for man today are to believe that he did the works. Believing connects man to God as from the beginning. Man made works mean nothing!! TK

Ed: There have always been two types of people in front of God. One type tries to do something or be something special or better to appease God or find favor with God. And on type that says I may not look it or feel it by if you (God) say it's true then I believe it!! Those of faith/believing are accepted! Your efforts according to Jesus are of no…[Read more]

This is a great day for those who will accept their perfection from God by faith!And this is a terrible day for those choose instead to continue in a life of sin.Ezekiel 33:10-11 Therefore, O thou son of man, speak unto the house of Israel;Thus ye speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins be upon us, and wepine away in them, how should we…[Read more]

Ed: From Abraham until now, FAITH was the connection between man and God. God will not connect with anything that is not perfect or has sin or is in darkness. No impurity can exist in God or connect to God. The only impurity from the beginning of time to now was (trying to be pure unto God) and not believing God. Following one another s actions…[Read more]

Ed: So, as far as you are concerned there is “doing good” which is “right” unto righteousness, unto acceptance and favor with God! Salvation based on your personal efforts!And there is “doing wrong” which would be “wrong” or away from righteousness, apart from God, wrong in Gods eyes, sin, or cause rejection from God!This would mean that “sin” or…[Read more]

theodorej: I didn't see any response to my post which is ok you are not required. But I can't let go quite yet pertaining to your post. It seems that possibly you believe that there are future events that must take place for the works of Jesus to be completed. Putting off into the future something intended for today could rob a person of all…[Read more]

Ed: If you really knew what the ego is you would have known the answer to your question by what I wrote to Irene. The ego is an energy system formed in the mind, through acquiring information from the five senses of physicality. As I see it, from birth, a human being begins to create his “ego” or “self-awareness” from the five physical senses. The…[Read more]

Irene: Did you really have to ask? I have no truth in and of myself. I'm a nobody from nowhere! I emptied myself of any and all pre-taught ideas about God as best I could praying and promising God that I own nothing, no doctrine, no teachings from anyone and I am willing to give up any beliefs that don't align with Jesus my lord! I have…[Read more]

Ed: Here is a shorter summation of my truth. To live in the truth of God it must be accepted/believed in the heart of man. Anything a man owns as his life/truth is in his mind/heart! To become what the truth of God says about you through the words of Jesus it is only by faith believing. As you learn all the different aspects of how God…[Read more]

Ed: Lets face the truth here Ed. You say….. faith “AND”…..God just says “FAITH”!! If your personal actions or deeds or works have ANYTHING AT ALL to do with your righteousness or your forgiveness, or any part of the total salvation, then it is of “YOU” apart from God.
