Work for anything? You see that is how YOU and YOUR crew view God. You believe that a change in behavior is works, you focus more on the outside than anyone I know. Just upside down. If a new convert felt moved to wear a long dresses in your congregation and made the stupid mistake of telling you that God moved her to do it. You would with everything in you to convince her otherwise. Bro, don't make me laugh anymore than you have. Your idea of the True Gospel wasn't preached to the Gentile's in
Acts 15:20? They were admonished to reject paganism. The adultress in
John 8:11 didn't have your so-called True Gospel preached to her. She was admonished to "go" commanded to sin no more, not having to work for anything? Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
Luke 7:47. I don't think its work to be married, I don't view what I do for my wife and children as WORK.
When I first met Sister Benincasa, the things I did for her wasn't ever considered work, and they are not work now. You are saved by grace, but you are judged by works
Matthew 16:27,
Romans 2:6, 2 Corinthians 11:15, 2 Timothy 4:14,
Revelation 2:3,
Revelation 2:5,
Revelation 2:9,
Revelation 2: 13,
Revelation 2:19,
Revelation 2:23,
Revelation 2:26,
Revelation 20:13. Those works which are judged are not performed out of vain human discipline, but out of love through the Holy Ghost. Jesus said a good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit, you will know them by their fruits. Trees don't have to WORK to produce their fruit.

Wouldn't you be shocked to find out that you are the real legalist.

Yes, no doubt that Paul penned those words, but Peter penned these words for you; "And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood,
which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction."
Sad.
