Re: Apostolic 101
Tim R, would you say we are saved by our faith and our works?
I would not. However, if one is saved and then rejects baptism entirely or does not abandon sin, it would speak to his expience or lack of experience at the cross. In that sense I think James can come into view regarding salvation. Our works are not a qualifier for salvation, but do show the love and praise of Christ Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.
