1. I don't promote Pelagianism. You're lying about my beliefs. Lying is a sin and Scripture says liars won't get to Heaven. Be careful 2. Romans 2, 6, 8 & 11 say works are required to be saved. Or doesn't matter if you don't like this. That's what it says.

1. I didn't lie about your beliefs. You said "works are required". Don't say it if you don't mean it. 2. Give the reference that says "works are required to be saved."

2. Read the parables of the sheep/goats, talents and unforgiving servant. In every one of those, the actions and works determined if they were saved or damned. Period

So, you're not going to provide references in Romans? I'm not surprised.

Ephesians 2: 8-9 "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast."

The word "alone" isn't in those verses. And read the very next verse....

What do you suppose the "not by works" means?

It means not by the degree that you follow the Jewish law to. Circumcision, bo blood in the meat you eat, ritual washings, etc.

Then you stopped reading at verse 9. Why is it two verses later is talking about circumcision and gentiles? He is talking about how you become part of this faith. It’s not because you are circumcised or not. God’s Grace is what leads you there. However that is not the end

Right. It is by grace through faith, not anything you do. That's what I said.
