You sound like a stuck record, go back and read my previous posts slowly and attentively.

You haven't answered this question.

How young will your kids be when you start inculcating them with the wisdom of Sagan, Marx and Darwin?

What do you mean?

But I'm not an atheist.

How many times do I have to tell you that we are not saved by our works before it will actually sink in?

So you believe that good works are, in fact, unnecessary for Christians and that they are "saved" even if there are none?

No I said good works don't save you. But a person that is saved cannot help but do good works. It becomes part of their nature.

I have answered this question already, and did so in a candid, point blank way, in detail, and it was addressed to you specifically and directly. You seem to be 'doing a Suzianne' or 'a chaney3'.

People who believe in Jesus cannot help but do good works although doing those good works is not actually required or necessary? 😕

I think you have your tongue in your cheek.

I know you did. You keep saying it over and over again as if it were answering the question that's being put to you when it's not. Here it is again: Are good works optional for a Christian?

So in your mind if good works don't save you then they are not necessary or required?

You're still dodging.

Are good works optional for a Christian?

Dodging the question I see.
