[QUOTE="Psalm27, post: 1306223, member: 16703"] Dead faith is still faith. Our righteousness is by grace through faith. The blood of the lamb is enough to cleanse us from our sins and give us eternal life. That's why Jesus said "It is finished" before he gave up the ghost at the cross (John 19:30). [b]Romans 4:8-9[/b] Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin. Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness. [b]Romans 11:6[/b] And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work. [b]Ephesians 2:8-9[/b] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. [b]Matthew 7:13-14[/b] Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
