grampa: That "well done" can only come by faith. After the parable of the fig tree. Christ tells Peter you must have faith.

Is it like the chicken or the egg theory ? which came first ? Works alone , without faith, deserves no reward. But which comes frst.. Obviously one can work without faith...but can one have faith and then not work ? I think not. So my conclusion is that it is not like the chicken or egg question.

Please pray for 'Barbie' , two bone marrow transplants have failed and they are giving her arsenic to stop the proliferation of white blood cells...literally a poison..that is how desperate the doctors are...this family has called me a kook and a religious fanatic. They have called Christianity a "cult". Then they have declared that a loving God would not preempt Christ as The only way to salavtion.......

But they desperately need prayers right now. Barbie is dying but declares no need for God or for that matter salvation.

I'm not buying into all the rhetoric, however. I ask God in Christ by His spirit to save every member of this family. I ask God to open their spiritual eyes to a love that knows no bounds,nor is limited by distance or by time , or by the degree to which this family can resist the advances of the Holy Spirit.In Christ.gregor
