It takes but a minute to enter into the salvation of the Lord, but it takes a lifetime to realize it. A life full of grace and repentance , joy and tears, confidence and fears. When we come to Jesus the foundation is laid immediately. But we still have to build the house. So getting saved, is a simple as can be. Being saved, is a bit more complex @Riverwalker my brother I love everything you said here, but especially your last 2 sentences / mini-paragraphs. They are both truthful and profound in their presentation, but simple with a casual (None condemning) pin-point truth. Love it all !!!

There will always be some who are at peace with their false salvation, so it is up to you me and others who know the truth to rattle their cage often. Thank you for the post which does just that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a reasonable question since it was the 'subject' of the OP and what seemed to drive the OP content--however, I saw no explanation for what 'plurality in God's word' meant. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the plurality of God's word? Paarden me but I have no idea what the plurality of God's is. For me the word Of God is the word of God. God is the same yesterday, today , and forever. God never changes only men. and it is for that reason we have great confusion in this thing we call Christianity. Salvation is built on a relationship is an absolute truth. There will always be error in the church, but the Lord knows His true bride. They shall come from the four corners of the earth. We must never put our faith in men who dilute truth. Plurality gives many ways to salvation. Gods word will always stand as one. There is no two ways. Jesus said I am the Gate to the sheep and if any try to come by any other way he is a thief and a liar. It is important to know the word of God. Study to show thyself approved a workman who need not be ashamed but rightly dividing the word of truth. Hunger for it as a wise man.

To me, Paul teaches that salvation is a life-long process, not an instantaneous, full-blown, completely saved event !!!

Would you benefit us with your "concept of "Plurality" of God's word" you stated. And what is the completeness of his message? I also am interested like others in your understanding of what you have posted. "Plurality" the fact or state of being plural. (verses one) a : the state of being plural b : the state of being numerous c : a large number or quantity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Son does what He sees the Father doing, and so we do what we see His Son doing. So simple that even a child can understand.
