No mixing of apples and oranges
Salvation is by grace through faith alone in Christ alone. And I thank God for that. If salvation comes by being good and perfect, I won't qualify.
This is a wonderful news. Yet some are not ready to accept it. They have been conditioned since birth to work, work and work for whatever they want or need. They see anything free with suspicion.
I cannot blame them. Humans are known for scamming people by offering something as free but which comes with strings attached.
Not so with God. Free is free. He did all the work. He paid all the bills. So He can offer it to anyone who believes for free.
So reject any teaching that tries to dilute the goodness of God by mixing grace with works. Whether by the works of the law, or man-made work requirements or faithfulness to the end kind of works, these works are incompatible with grace when it comes to eternal life. They may be helpful in living spiritually (the Law for Israel, daily works for believers today), but they have no contribution to salvation. We work because we're saved, not in order to be saved.
Mixing Law and Grace or grace and works distort both (Romans 11:6; Ephesians 2:8-9). Keep them separate.
Manatiling nakapokus sa biyaya. Huwag ninyong hayaang nakawin ng mga huwad na guro ang inyong karapatang mag-isip ng doktrina.
(Kung gusto ninyo ng karagdagang impormasyon, bisitahin ninyo kami. May pagtitipon kami sa Dahat, kada Linggo, kada 1:00-3:00 pm. Sana manampalataya kayo at kita-kita tayo.
Isang mahalagang paalala: ang mga blogs na ito ay personal kong opinyon at eksposisyon; hindi ito opisyal na pananaw ng Partido Christian Bible Church. Kung nais ninyong malaman ang kanilang opisyal na posisyun, magtanong kayo sa mga matanda ng simbahan. Ang Nieto Bible Page ay isang hiwalay na ministri mula sa PCBC at independiyente rito. Nakikipagtipon ako sa PCBC, pero may personal akong kumbiksiyon sa mga bagay. Bagama't miyembro (muli) ako ng teaching and ruling leadership ng PCBC, anumang mabasa ninyo rito ay hiwalay sa kanila. Anumang nasusulat ay aking pananagutan.
Kung nakatulong sa inyo ang mga blogs na ito, mangyaring pasubscribe at pashare sa iba. Ibahagi natin at ikalat ang mga Salita ni Cristo at ang libreng biyaya ng Diyos sa lahat ng dakong Filipino ay lenggwahe. Salamat po.)
