Your continued shouting of your so-called "Christianity" is akin to what Jesus was talking about in that passage. If you lived and acted like a true Christian, you wouldn''t have to scream it in everyone's face. Woe unto you, RBHILL! More acts of mercy and love towards your fellow man is required and less (or none) of your boasting that YOU will go to Heaven; it looks like you might be in for a big surprise if Jesus meant what he said in the Gospels.

Originally posted by no1marauderThere is nothing in MATTHEW 25 that says that Salvation is a process.
BF: CHRIST is the judge of whose Salvation is the most righteous. Which is why HE said and taught on what the Kingdom of Heaven was, and how to get there.
In Matthew 25. Read it and it might open your eyes.

Originally posted by blindfaith101Actually, it does. It says that you have an obligation to serve the poor.

That obligation is never over (otherwise you would be saved by works, which
is certainly not Biblical). That obligation is continuous; if you fail in that
obligation, you are demonstrating that you have failed to be saved. Only
upon your death is that obligation relieved, and your gift granted or not.
The gift is granted by being of pure faith, which means (at least in part)
being a worker.
So, you can profess your faith all you want, but it means nothing if you aren't
feeding the poor.
So, I ask you: have you worked in a soup kitchen this week?

You are illiterate, Blindfaith. I can't have a serious conversation with
you when you refuse to read the very basic things I ask you to read.
Note above that I said that 'being saved is a process.' Thus, neither
I nor you are saved, but in the process of it (according to strict, literal,
Christian, Biblical Doctrine).

Originally posted by blindfaith101Learn how to read, chump. Verses 31-46 clearly say (Jesus' words) that you will be judged on Judgment Day on how you treat your fellow man. Sorry, a "I believe Jesus is my personal savior" won't do it; you have to actually do something for your fellow human beings. Deal with it.
There is nothing in MATTHEW 25 that says that Salvation is a process.

Originally posted by NemesioBeing saved is accepting JESUS CHRIST as your Savior. As well as living and doing all that HE taught. When you accept CHRIST as your Savior, you are saved. Not waiting for the proccess of salvation to begin or end.

GOD, CHRIST, and the HOLY SPIRIT are well aware of what I do and have done, to gain entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven.
