You never replied to the rich man and Christ answer to "what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life"
Well, first of all, I don't believe I have any obligation to respond to every trollish post that is posted here.
Secondly, when posts like that are themselves EVASIONS of my own post, I'm not going to enable such evasive behaviour. If someone wants me to address his issues, he has to first stop RUNNING AWAY from mine.
And finally, the poster in question doesn't offer honest, open-ended questions, they are just worthless rhetorical questions rigged by being worded in a way that tries to force an answer inside a Mormon paradigm. This indicates that the poster isn't interested in learning in the first place.
Did God say to him, "faith alone" or did he not say sacrifice all you have and follow me... so according to scripture, faith alone is not mentioned but as I discussed before about Abraham and his willingness to sacrifice all he had, even his very son...
And Jesus likewise didn't teach any five-year-olds calculus.
There is a PROCESS you have to go through.
You can only get to "faith alone" after going through Rom. 3:19-20 (which you guys keep RUNNING AWAY from), and learning that NO amount of works can get you there.
And sadly, that is the lesson that Mormons are still failing to learn.
