Originally posted by KellyJay Romans 3: 10-12 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Do you think Romans 3: 10-12 is a lie?
Do you think Christ is a liar?
Mat 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
I know how to marry those two passages so that there is no conflict but apparently you cannot.

You sort that one out.
I know Jesus is not a liar.
The righteous will have eternal life.
So do you think Romans is a lie?
"You sort that out."
I like how a worker of righteousness such as yourself would hide truth as you see it
demanding others 'sort that out' since obviously you know and we do not.

KJV Ezekiel 3: 17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.
18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Originally posted by Fetchmyjunk Yes and I pointed out the contradiction in your response, i.e. nobody is righteous enough for eternal life but some are righteous enough to meet the minimum level.
You are welcome to believe something that doesn't make sense. That is your choice.
Originally posted by Rajk999 All people are sinners. Who is arguing that?
Some are righteous and some are evil, but they are all still sinners.
Jesus knows who they are.
He chose 12 and 11 were righteous and 1 was evil... but all still sinners
Mans righteousness is not righteous enough for God. Again who is arguing that?
Jesus will welcome those who are righteous [sinners] in His ...[text shortened]... ghteous [sinners] into the Kingdom
Jesus said that. Feel free to ague with him if you disagree.
So you are saying that a sinner becomes righteous by doing good works?
Originally posted by Fetchmyjunk I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.
What is repentance? It is recognition that one has sinned and the promise to refrain from sinning further. Jesus is asking people then to repent and live righteously.

Originally posted by Rajk999 Jesus will judge people. Your effort to get me to judge who does what is going to fail.
The teachings of Jesus are plain for all Christians to see. Trying to remove Christ from your eternal life is futile.
Thats all from me .. good bye.
I didn't ask you to judge who does what. When did I try to remove Christ from eternal life? I only questioned your definition of repentance. Funny how you always say good bye when someone questions you.
