I'm looking for the Acts 28 believer's position on salvation, primarily during the period from Matthew 1 to Acts 28:27 for the Jew, and also the Gentile.
My own understanding from 18 years of studying the Book using principles of right division is that it is works and faith, just as James describes, for the Jew. Not sure about the Gentile though.
I understand that many say that everyone is saved by faith only in all dispensations, and that works follow. But what I'm saying is that works are required, and not only that, faith is essentially works if it is not grace through faith, as we believe. |
