My Friend, Wayne, and I are studying together and he discovered something remarkable. Wayne shared with me, “ It struck me that what identifies Christians today is ‘Gods Mark of Love.’ This mark is not a physical mark such as in “circumcision” (Genesis 17:10-11), but in some ways is similar, the circumcision is a hidden mark cut into the flesh, but it is hidden from the world. The “Mark of Love” is visable to the world, but the (true) mark of LOVE is hidden or invisible to the believer, only! Why?” Read More | Comments

A friend of mine went to a Bible study this week and contacted me with this question:“….we read a good amount of Romans. We ended up discussing how we are saved by faith alone, but I couldn’t help but disagree. James 2:24 clearly says we are not saved by works alone, and Matthew 7:21 says “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kindgom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven”. Ephesians 2:8-10 also addresses two different kind of works, and I also heard somewhere that “Faith must Act or it isn’t Faith”.
I don’t know if there are any contradictions in the Bible, but clearly there’s something going on with Romans and James. Am I missing something here? To be honest I don’t like questioning the Bible, but I don’t think that we are saved by faith alone. If you can help me out with this in anyway I would greatly appreciate it. I know you’re the one person I can count on for this kind of stuff!!!” Read More | Comments
