I have to renew my thinking... I have been sitting under Arminian teaching for decades.
Even though I'm a molinist, Armenians don't deny sola fide.
LORD O GOD. Shine your light into these hearts and show your GLORY, let us be vessels of honor for the masters use and let us always give
You ALL THE GLORY FOR SALVATION IS ALL YOURS
SALVATION IS OF THE LORD!

The most famous teaching in the church all over the world now days are John 1:12 but they just ignore verses 13 .And most teachings don’t agree with Roman 9 .May God open our understanding and have mercy on us all .
Good to hear Dr. White discuss justification.
The faith whitch save us is the faith of Christ Galatian 2:16 . I am agree 100% with Mr James White statement .
The faith that saves is Acts 16:31 Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and at that very moment you are saved forever. That's right salvation happens first not down the line somewhere. Get the order correct.
AMEN,it's the new birth that grants God's Elect the FAITH OF CHRIST that we believe with.
I remember James said he was going to start focusing more on prophesy (end time prophesy) 2-3 years back when he saw how dark the world is (welcome to the party). Aaaand nothing happened.
To the questionnaires, use the microphone, please!
1 Peter 4:8 “And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.”
Matthew10:5-6
These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Matthew 15:24
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Romans15:8
Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:
James1:1
James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
the body of Christ mystery message given to paul only
rom 16 :25-26
Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations
Galatians1:11-12
But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Galatians 1:17
Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
so from the time of ascension of christ in early acts to 3 years after Sauls conversion in acts 9 , in this time what message was peter James and the others preaching if the mystery message hadn't been revealed to them yet,????
gal 2 :7-9
But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter; (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:) And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
peter and James were speaking to Israel converts , not the body of christ ,
Read this. It clearly states that the Spirit is He who is doing the work in us. Not us!
James 2:26 KJV
"For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also."
Matthew10:5-6
These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Matthew 15:24
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Romans15:8

There is an overwhelming number of scriptures that each explains the Justification by Faith alone.
James 2:22-24 versus Romans 4, 5, and 8, Galatians 2:15, Galatians 2:21, Galatians 5:6, Ephesians 2:8-9
It is as if St. Paul wrote all these scriptures to make sure that the point of Justification by Faith alone is well explained across many churches and well understood to elaborate and expound on what St. James wrote about Faith without work is dead.
Furthermore, to understand James 2:24 one should try to also read 1 Corinthians 13:13 as love is also work but not all work is love. It says there that Faith without Love is dead.
So, I see that the true saving faith would have brotherly love towards another and is compelled to love people (as Jesus loved them). Bearing in mind that work does not produce Salvation (as warned in Ephesians 2:8-9), only Christ’s sacrifice provided Salvation.
"It is by WORKS and NOT BY FAITH ALONE that we are JUSTIFIED ", ( James 2:24), for "even if one has ALL FAITH, but does not LOVE, IT IS USELESS ". ( 1 Corinthians 13:2). The false and fallible teachings of James White, have made me a stronger Catholic Christian! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink
😂😂😂 this comment made me giggle a little bit 😂😂
He addressed James 2 and instead of giving a rebuttal you just quoted the same verse and then added 1 Corinthians 13:2 to a point he had already made so you made no sense. You probably just gave an opinion based on the title of the video instead of watching it😂😂😂 L
@juancontreras9745 LOL, he whited out James 2!! 🤣🤣 "it is by WORKS and NOT BY FAITH ALONE that we are JUSTIFIED ", for '"was not Abraham our FATHER JUSTIFIED by his WORKS ". Faith ALONE is never found in Holy Scripture, except to negate it, for even if one has ALL FAITH, but does not LOVE, IT IS USELESS! Protestants are so entertaining! Not Biblical, but entertaining! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink
@@matthewbroderick6287 read Hebrews 11 to seen what he means by works brotha. Babylon taught you that those works save you or work with Gods grace and that’s not where in the Bible. Everytime you see Grace you see faith on our part and then salvation
@juancontreras9745 Sorry brutha, you listen to fallible Protestant Pastors, rather than Holy Scripture, for even if one has ALL FAITH, but does not LOVE, IT IS USELESS, for to those who HAVE DONE GOOD, THESE SHALL ENTER INTO THE RESURRECTION OF LIFE, and to those who HAVE SHOWN MERCY, MERCY SHALL BE SHOWN THEM, for it is by WORKS and NOT BY FAITH ALONE that we are JUSTIFIED, as the Son of Man shall give to each according to one's works or lack of works! Your ignorance of Holy Scripture is quite evident sadly! You are in my prayers as you journey toward Truth! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink
The bible teaches we are saved :
- By Grace, an unmerited gift no one can earn
- Through faith, the free will response of man to God's grace
- A faith working in love (Gal 5: 6, Ja 2 14, 22, 24)
You realize that you didn’t refute anything just added your own view right? Which he refuted already.
@@juancontreras9745 james did not refute a thing. He only spouted his own fallible interpretation of scripture, which has been decapitated from the faith from which it came. Its 100% heretical.
@@TruthHasSpoken bro you believe that you have to work with Gods grace to be saved. That’s unbiblical and it’s how the Israelites were still enslaved. If you want to keep believing you’re enslaved Go ahead just notice what church is keep in you in chains.
@@juancontreras9745 "you believe that you have to work with Gods grace to be saved. That’s unbiblical"
Hmm..... is not coming to faith itself, the initial I BELIEVE, working with God's Grace, cooperating with it, an response of the intellect and will? Or are we atomitons having no freedom? I realize that there are protestant denominations that believe the latter .... protestantism itself is divided.
Catholic's teach what scripture says here. One is saved:
- By grace, an unmerited gift
- Through Faith
- A faith working in love
_“the ONLY thing that counts is faith working through LOVE”_ (Galatians 5:6)
Speaking of Abraham, God's Word says: _You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by works,_ (Ja 2)
Those are works of LOVE, not the OT law.
And guess what God says : _You see that a man is justified by works and NOT by faith alone._
When one is justified, made right with God, one is 100% saved!!
@@TruthHasSpokenyou are so blind. You just don’t get it. Faith working through love isn’t faith plus works. It’s what happens when you’re regenerate since that love is poured out by the Holy Spirit as the apostle says. It’s all 100% of God by faith alone. Faith and works is literally every other religion. Catholicism isn’t special, just another heretical institution among many. By the way, you still have to interpret so called infallible teachings. You’re still the final link in the chain in what you actually believe, hence why so many Catholics disagree. Just look at Sungenis’ latest video showing how jimmy akin was completely wrong in his recent debate against White.
"This is the work of God, that you believe on him whom the Father hath sent." (John 6:29)
According to Jesus, even believing is a work. A work that _we_ do.
This is the WORK of GOD!
For GOD works on you both to will and to do his good pleasure.
good thing paul under inspiration of the holy spirit clears it all up with the statement not of ourselves! for all you people who love to twist words like faith , works ,law etc Paul is our apostle to the church which is the body of christ not peter and James they taught a completely different gospel, for a certain group of people Paul is our apostle not peter, paul was given a new revelation the others didnt know because it was kept secret until the lord in his glory revealed it to paul only

What are the works of faith? Its not law. Its love.
Dr. White...if the wrath of God was removed for the elect because of Christ, how is it as reformed theology teaches, the wrath of God abides on even the elect until they believe?
more mic gain??
Nah ...it needs to lose weight 🤣
COVENANT THEOLOGY = SALVATION BY FAITH. SANCTIFICATION BY LAW. BEWITCHED.
A said faith and there is no reality to it. I am sorry that is not what Acts 16:31 says. That vs says believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved forever. We are saved at the moment we believe, salvation is complete before you know anything about the doctrines that help you grow spiritually. That is what the Greek says in this vs. Faith without works is dead, faith has to have an object...What faith is James talking about , No one who speaks on this vs. ever explains this question..Can that faith save him,the answer is absolutely if it is the faith mentioned in Acts 16:31. That faith instantaneously saves, and places the believer in union with Christ. Plus 38 other things. We are completely saved before we have the chance to perform (Thru the intake of bible doctrine )any works of any kind.
Faith alone is nothing. Show proof if you want to be believed.
Yeah I imagine there won’t be any talk on Jesus’ parables of the Good Samaritan, sheep and the goats, and Lazarus and the rich man! Let’s not let Christ, who we all agree is God, get in the way of typically stupid and shallow Protestant heresies!
White says God chooses men for eternal damnation before they are even born; that they have no free will choice to believe in His Son. That means we must attribute to God the work of the devil. I think that is called blasphemy.
2 Corinthians 4:4 KJV
In whom *_the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them._*

You just don’t understand 😮
Is God all powerful and all knowing?
@@snaphaan5049 exactly
@@paulswilley3737 ALL who HEAR, and BELIEVE, the Gospel will be saved, here's the proof:
James 1:18 KJV
*_Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth,_* …
1 Peter 1:23 KJV
*_Being born again,_* … *_by the word of God,_* …
Romans 10:17 KJV
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing *_by the word of God._*

[66] From that time *_many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him._*
[67] Then said Jesus unto the twelve, *_Will ye also go away?_*

@@snaphaan5049 Yes!
I am not a protestant and I think "faith alone" is a ridiculous idea and i do not believe in a God that would base salvation on just a belief in Jesus. Good works and minimal sin is what determines a pass or fail on your report card from God.
Then Gods word says in John 3:18 that you are condemned already.
@@MikeFree22 "Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son." Why would anyone believe in a God that would condemn over 2/3's of the worlds population because they do not believe in Jesus ?
@@dennisharvey5852
The answer to your question is:
Because the wages of sin is death.
The Bible says we have all sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23)
If God did not save ANYONE…He would still be totally JUST in doing so.
Who are you to question your creator?
On the contrary, who are you, you foolish person, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, “Why did you make me like this,” will it? (Romans 9:20)
Who is more merciful?
Your god who, to use your words, gives you a report card.
Or my God who saves COMPLETELY even while we are totally depraved and deserve Gods wrath.
The Bible teaches over and over and over that we are sinners who deserve death. That you cannot earn your salvation and that salvation is from God alone. Jesus is our only mediator and only way to be saved….He did it and nothing we ever do or say has any part in it. Our works are the product(or) evidence of our salvation….our fruit as new creatures in Christ…not part of what saves. The Bible is abundantly clear on this.
The traditions of men will not save you.
Praise God it is not up to any of us…or we would all perish.
I pray the Holy Spirit convicts you and you repent.
I do care for your soul. Time is short my friend.
@Rodrick Evans My sins are minor, but my good works are few so the answer is yes but I would not likely be held in high regard because I should have done better.
@@dennisharvey5852yeahhh my brother your arguement defeats itself because you say at one time that faith alone doesnt save but then you quote the passage talking about belief being what saves.. you also miss the whole point in this lesson but let me try and illustrate this in summary by saying "all of our righteousnesses are as filthy rags in the presence of the Lord"
The trinity is a lie.
If you don't believe in the Trinity your probably not saved
The nonsense of James White. No change in anyone by a personal action of the Spirit. No one after around the end of the first century has been given gifts and the Spirit NEVER entered anyone in a personal way. White, Jerimiah, Luther, Calvin....on and on...would not even know there way a Spirit but for the written word. So much nonsense. Faith alone is a ticket to hell.
Are you OK? You seem a bit hostile. If you think Dr White doesn't believe in an individual being changed by the Holy Spirit, I'd suggest watching some of his sermons. If you have a differing opinion could you please simply state it and scriptural support for it, also please present the opposing side of the argument and clearly explain how your view is superior.
This is what Dr White has done for his view of the subject and any refutation of that should therefore address his well known opinions accurately.
@@ChristisLord2023 My view is worthless and so is James White's. No one has ever been saved by a direct action of the Spirit. The Spirit has given us information in the word and when we read it and do what it says to do, we can be saved. The Bible tells us what the early christians did. They believed the gospel and were baptized into Christ. James White has some unscriptural notion about God picking some people and not others. That is not in the Bible.
@@numbers22_28 so more opinion without scriptural reference. Thank you for making the point.
@Anthony Bardin Your request is odd. You're asking me to prove something that does not exist. No one is saved by the Spirit entering them. It is not there in the text.
Jesus said, "He who believes and is baptized (that is water) shall be saved." So I can prove that believing who Jesus is an obeying his commandments will save, that it is a thing, yes. Showing you a positive example of Mr. White 's doctrine that is not in the word I can't do.
@@numbers22_28 I asked you to prove your own statements biblically. Please don't misrepresent me. You are choosing to refute his claims, show it in the scripture where he is wrong.
