Sorry Cloudy but a Sinner who has been saved by grace is NOT declaring his own righteousness. Exactly the opposite.
Secondly, you don't understand the Gospel. What do men need to be saved from after all! We need to be saved from the consequences of our sin - separation from God in Hell.
The Bible itself says the preaching of the Gospel is an offence to those who are perishing.
Can I suggest you read the Bible before sharing all this nonsense you come up with.
I cannot save a single person including myself. If anybody gets saved ALL the glory goes to God.
Honestly your ignorance is astonishing. Have you read and studied the Bible?
Remember this Cloudy, Jesus shared the truth. He is perfect and there was no fault in Him. Yet despite this Jesus said they Hated Him Without CAUSE. Jesus laid down His very life for sinners but the Truth He spoke caused this insane hatred.
I am not perfect so people hating me could have cause. The point is that when dealing with the perfect Son of God they crucified Him.
They hated the light and preferred the darkness.
Why were some so upset with Folau. Because he shared God's truth with them exactly as it is written. He was faithful to the truth.
Nothing changes until that day when Christ returns to rule. Then every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is LORD. KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORD'S.
Man what a day that will be!!!
Maranartha Come soon Lord Jesus.
In the meantime folk need to get saved. Men are saved through the preaching of the Gospel and the work of the Holy Spirit. There can be no changing of the message to accommodate raging atheists etc.
You do them no favors by not telling them the truth. Folau knows that as does every child of God.
