That isn't my belief.What am I wrong about? I think that YOU might be wrong about your belief that God is restricted.

Are you sure?That isn't my belief.
There's a problem with your argument. Freewill allows works that may or may not be correct, and works that are considering salvation oriented, that also really just means of the faith, like what you are talking about, presumably, are not ones works, solely,@Disciple of Jesus You seem to be saying that anyone not of the class of people you are in can't perform for The Lord. Did I read you wrong?
I think you are saying that The Lord judges by a person's works. Believe in Jesus is work performed and according to you, it will lead to a person's salvation, and that The Lord will judge all those who don't believe like you believe unworthy for whatever you are hoping for. That looks like to me that you limit God's will because God will choose for salvation only those doing what YOU say they should be doing.There's a problem with your argument.

1 Corinthians 4:4
Normal works don't save, book of Romans.
Can I quote you?Study the occult for more context.

Go ahead.Can I quote you?
What do I think is salvation oriented other than this? Though the phrase "who fears him" was probably added later because it is also written that there is no fear in love. 1 John 4:18Acts 10:35Interesting, so people should do what you specifically think is salvation oriented, then? It's like your separating yourself from your own criticism.
Go ahead.
Why don't you prove that it was added later. I don't believe your speculations.What do I think is salvation oriented other than this? Though the phrase "who fears him" was probably added later because it is also written that there is no fear in love. 1 John 4:18Acts 10:35
Being righteousness is described beautifully at Matthew 5:3-12. But, nobody is perfect.
What have I said to anybody which indicates what I think they should do?
My arguing is about what I believe I should do. Is a book always written to steer people the author's way? I think that you are making stuff up.Why don't you prove that it was added later. I don't believe your speculations.
Then what are you even arguing? Your argument requires that.
Huh?My arguing is about what I believe I should do. Is a book always written to steer people the author's way? I think that you are making stuff up.
I know you don't. Why not prove it? It can't be done. If it could be done, it would have been done. I trust that most people who care about the Bible also care about what is true and are "good"* people. But, if the meaning of anything which is being called "God's Word" was changed somewhere along the way, the person or persons who did it can never be considered good. I think that is a fact. But, they're dead, so it doesn't matter anymore for them.Why don't you prove that it was added later. I don't believe your speculations.
OK. Yes. I believe that. What's your point?Huh?
Making what up?
Romans 10:2
1 Corinthians 4:4
1 Corinthians 4:4OK. Yes. I believe that. What's your point?
I think a person need not call 'The Way The Truth The Life' "Jesus". Can you prove that a person not believing in Jesus can't believe in his way?1 Corinthians 4:4
1 Corinthians 4:8
Galatians 2:3-5
The Scripture continually refutes your argument, and clearly explains the works in the context of faith.
