---Jacob was agnostic.

---After you accept Jesus Christ in your life, you are not.

---James said that faith without works is dead.

---Romans said that you are saved by faith without works.

---Paul looks at the beginning as a starter.

---James looks at the middle, when sanctification kicks in.

---Are works important? Edward Heppenstall in Christ our High Priest said "Yes". We will be judged in the Investigative Judgment by our works.

---So we should not polarize "faith" with "works" and use Romans to throw out works of faith. Agnostic works cannot save. Never. Atheistic works cannot save.

Never.

---But the sinner who casts his/her whole life on Christ, will render works that fit a believer because one needs to be worth of the price He paid for us.

---What was given on the cross is not honey, but blood.

---It is not a cheap easy ticket to heaven although it is free. It comes with a

price. The price of self-surrender. Pride must be put away daily.

---Commitment and surrendering to Christ daily and obediently walking in His ways is what Ellen White had in mind.

---Some of our members think parroting Reformed Theology on the first part like Luther but not the second part like Ellen White, the enabling grace part.

---Salvation by grace plus enabling grace to walk obediently in sanctification.

That is the full Adventist gospel which is biblical and Spirit of Prophecy.

Nothing less.
