self explanatory.. sadly you dont read well.. its your comment and im quoting it.. ive never missed any of your verses.. you've ignored them all :-)
.No la. I have not ignored ALL your Bible comments/opinions.

If you think your works and effort sustains your salvation, and thats your reward.. then you are not doing enough.. Jesus has clearly said
Matthew 5:17," Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil."
Jesus was here to fulfil the law, that no man be JUDGED by works/LAW but only by Faith and Grace.
But in your persistence to do good.. you're not good enough..
Matthew 5:20,"For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."
Acts 4:12,"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."
Acts 16:30,31,"And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house."
So, was it Believe and DO GOOD WORKS? Believe and CONTINUE TO DO GOOD WORKS?
NO!
the ONLY word was BELIEVE!
Acts 16:34,"And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house."
ONLY BELIEVE!!
2 Timothy 1:9,"Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,"
NOT ACCORDING TO OUR WORKS!!
NO!!!
So, if you so strongly believe your works can sustain your salvation, are you saying 2 Timothy 1:9 is CONDITIONAL? is NOT COMPLETE?
NO!!
The Bible DOES NOT CONTRADICT itself..
your understanding is MUST be Bible based
