false prophet Bruce Warner - trying to justify the false prophets

One thing false prophets and false teachers have in common - they claim as long as you believe in Messiah Yeshua you do not have to obey G-d - calling obedience a "work" and we are "not saved by works" (yet faith without works - or obedioence as they define it - is DEAD!)

false prophet Bruce Warner is taking the false prophet's lies one step further claiming the works that show faith is alive is works by the Holy Spirit and not the works of the believer. Messiah Yeshua says He will reject those who do not obey G-d

Matthew 7
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Bruce Warner (15 Dec 2008) "'FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD', BUT IT IS NOT OF 'OUR OWN WORKS' THAT WE ARE SAVED!"
Dear Doves,

James 2:17
"Even so faith, if it hath NOT WORKS IS DEAD, being alone."

James 2:26
"For the body WITHOUT THE SPIRIT IS DEAD, so FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ALSO."

QUESTION:
So, by whose works is it that we are saved if it is not of our own works?

ANSWER:

2 Thessalonians 2:13
"But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God CHOSE YOU TO BE SAVED through THE 'SANCTIFYING WORK' OF THE (HOLY) SPIRIT and through belief in the Truth."

1 Peter 1:2
"WHO HAVE BEEN CHOSEN according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through THE 'SANCTIFYING WORK' OF THE (HOLY) SPIRIT, for obedience to Jesus Christ and sprinkling by His Blood."

It is NOT by the works that WE do that we are saved, but rather by the 'sanctifying works' that the 'Holy Spirit does' within us that we are saved! If the Holy Spirit DOES NOT dwell within us then we are NOT SANCTIFIED by any works that we do.

Come Lord Jesus!

Bruce Warner
