He has already preached the Gospel to them, and no doubt they have already obeyed, so why would he tell them again, he hasn't even re-preached the Gospel in this chapter.
The epistles are the letters written to the saints. They are already saved.

Like I said, worst argument in exegetical history. I can only re-state what's already been said. Paul instructed these people on MANY things they were already doing. It's completely absurd, beyond any comprehension, that he would write countless hours of letters and NEVER mention the salvational instructions of the "Three Steps." NEVER!!!
But he mentioned salvation dozens of times and he was absolutely consistent with his instruction. He was abundantly clear what brought salvation. He said the same exact thing that was recorded in
Acts 16:31.
