He was said to be an “heir of righteousness” AFTER obedience so therefore he was not saved by faith alone. It also says that it was through his faith that he “moved with fear and prepared an ark”. So again, he was not saved by “faith alone”.

the Bible doesn’t say much about Adam. We don’t know about the entirety of his life. He lived for 930 years and you want to pass judgement on him based on one sin? No I don’t think that. Being a man of faith DOES NOT mean you have never sinned. Being a man of faith is someone who demonstrates...

What scripture would you like me to give? I did not say that building the ark was the ONLY reason I believe Noah was eternally saved. I’m saying if he hadn’t he would not have been. I’ve always said Noah was a man of faith and used this example just like Hebrews did. Hebrews 11:6-7 But...

None of this makes a lick of difference to you. Like “sin DNA”. There’s no such thing but you don’t care you’ll keep teaching it anyway.

The floods a comin

No, what Abraham did was believe in his wife not God. God had given him direction up until then but he didn’t have the patience to wait for God. He followed the direction of his wife. This was not “by faith”. Faith comes through hearing the word of God not by hearing what your wife has to...

Yes he did. Living a life of obedience or living a life of faithfulness does NOT mean living a life of sinless perfection.

No he didn’t but he did instruct the world to “believe and be baptized for salvation”. So are you going to mock and rail against this instruction are you going to believe and obey like the rest of the faithful?

The same way. Salvation for Noah was “in the ark”. Salvation today is “in Christ”. 2 Tim 2:10 Noah had to have faith in God enough to do what he said. Today, God says that one must repent and be baptized for the remission of sins and that baptism places one “into Christ”. Rom 6:3,4; Gal...

I personally believe that the instructions given to Noah were given in the way they were because God knew that the present world would not listen and obey. The point is....Noah was saved by grace but not by grace alone. He was saved by grace through faith in that he was obedient to the...

Maybe both. But that boat would not have held everybody. It was over 100 years and all we know is that only 8 souls heeded to the warning and did what God said.

God chose to work through Noah just like he chose to work through Cornelius in bringing the gospel to the gentiles. Cornelius was said to be just but it also says he needed to be saved. What about Paul? Did he find grace in the eyes of the lord? Even while killing Christians? How is that...

Where does it EVER say the HS worked within Noah?

Did I say.....sinlessly perfect? Don’t think I did. And technically all he did was say, “she is my sister”. Which was a true statement. Let’s play your game though... If Abraham “believed God” in Gen 15:6 then why did he impregnate Hagar? I guess he really didnt “believe” after all.

Are you saying Noah only received grace because he was a just man? How is that possible when titus tells us that the grace that brings salvation has appeared to ALL MEN. But we know that ALL MEN are not just individuals. Grace always comes first and it is not based on how good you are. Noah...

Are they different? Everybody Noah preached to decided not to obey. It was only his family that obeyed and was saved physically from the flood. Those that did not obey both perished physically and spiritually in the flood because they did not do as God instructed. You cannot be saved...

Who did that? Sure wasn’t me. Where did I ever say Noah was obedient to the gospel of Christ? Rom 15:4 tells us that what was written aforetime was written for our learning. These Old Testament stories are to be used for us to learn about God and what God expects of his creation. God has...

The Bible says....the sum of thy word is truth. Ps 119:160. You can’t just read Gen 15:6 and build an entire doctrine off of one generic verse. It’s not hard to understand when you consider everything that is said about Abraham. How is Abraham’s life summed up? By one verse? No...

Those passages don’t even mention Noah. So how does that prove your false position?

So, Abrams obedience had nothing to do with faith? Let’s let the Bible contradict what you just said... Hebrews 11:8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. The Bible says...
