The Christian's Duty To The World. Ronny Milliner Indianapolis, Indiana. What is the relationship that the Christian is to have with the world? Paul answers, "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God" (Rom. 12:2). The Work -- Negative. Paul approaches this responsibility first from a negative standpoint. We are not to be conformed to the world. The word "conform" means "to fashion or shape one thing like another. . . . This verb has more especial reference to that which is transitory, changeable, unstable" (Vine, p.227). The ways of the world are unstable compared to God's ways. We must not allow ourselves to be poured into its mold. There are a number of areas in which it can be easy for us to become like the world. We can conform to the world in our dialogue. As surely as Peter's Galilean accent gave him away (Mk. ...

Is One Saved by Faith, Grace, or Works? By Robert Waters. So, you think your faith in Jesus will save you? If so, you may have been deceived regarding what mere faith can do. Are you aware that in Jesus' day many leaders of the Jewish synagogues believed in Jesus as the Son of God (had faith) but “they did not confess him,” which is required (John 12:42; Rom. 10:9-10)? Also, the devils who “believed and trembled” were certainly not saved (James 2:19). So why then do you think that “faith alone” (advocated by many denominational preachers) will save YOU?  A passage that is often thought to teach “faith only” (salvation at the point of faith) is Ephesians 2:8-9. But have you looked at it carefully? It states that GRACE, not faith, is what saves. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:” Faith certainly has a part in justification that results in salvation, as do works (J...
