Saying FAITH alone DOES not Mean nga Nagtuoo rako pero akong buhat Dautan or wa nisunod sa Dios. It means nagtuoo ko mao akong buhat maayu.
Good works is the result of your faith in Christ, this is true coz how can you do a good work if dili nmo e uyon sa gusto or pleasing sa Ginoo? Don't misinterpret that by doing good without true faith is enough na for salvation and having a "faith" without doing a good work is a dead faith. There is a big difference here from doing good works only in order to go to heaven. A christian who accepted Christ do good works because of his love for Christ.
So sa Sitwasyun sa Thief which was Besides Jesus. Kanang mu ingun ka nga REQUIREMENT ang Maayung Buhat sa Kaluwasan - WALA nah na apply? kay wa man siya ka buhat ug maayu,
If requirement pa ang maayung buhat sa kaluwasan, nganu naluwas man siya nga wa man siya ka Comply sa isa ka Requirement? nga ang nahimu nya is Repentance raman...
Ikaw nag ingun sa imung previous post nga Repentance is NOT a form of Good Deeds...
If you die immediately after accepting Christ you are saved just as much as a person who once saved. Given the consequences to each person, the paralyze man and the thief in the cross can't do good deeds anymore. But saying like you or me or any other person who is able and healthy, maka buhat, maka lihok, maka tabang, maka pili unsay angay buhaton uyon ba o supak sa Ginoo... naa tay obligasyon mo sunod unsay maau if you truly love God and follow him.. it will be lame to just rely on your faith and not practice it as long as you live. mao ni ako punto, irrelevant imo e cite ang paralyze kay given sa iya situation dli na maka buhat ug unsay maau, all he can do if he wants to be saved is to repent (maka sala man ghapn cya sa huna2x) and accept God in his life. The thief on the cross who was dying which is an exceptional circumstance. If ingon ka dli requirement ang maayung buhat sa sama natong maayu pag lawas, if rely rka sa imong faith.. what does that make you? We need a true working faith and practice and live what Jesus tells us to live and imitate his way of life.. but then again we are imperfect, He just wants us to have a repentant heart.
