Be careful, a slothful doctrine can be a damning doctrine...

Christian, does your doctrine say that you do not have to do anything at all on your end in the realm of salvation?
I am not saying to “be saved” but once you are “saved”.
If your answer is “NO” then God’s word is directly opposed to your egregious error of doctrine.
In reality, we do not have to do anything, but for those who know and fear God, we understand that we ‘get to’ serve Him.
What one chooses in this regards has a direct impact on their overall eternal situation.
But THE MERCY OF THE LORD IS FROM EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING UPON THEM THAT FEAR HIM, AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS UNTO CHILDREN'S CHILDREN; TO SUCH AS KEEP HIS COVENANT, AND 🤔 TO THOSE THAT REMEMBER HIS COMMANDMENTS TO DO THEM👈👈👈. Psalm 103:17-18
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. James 2:26
Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 🤔BLESSED IS THAT SERVANT, WHOM HIS LORD WHEN HE COMETH SHALL FIND SO DOING👈👈👈. Matthew 24:44-46
🤔THEREFORE TO HIM THAT KNOWETH TO DO GOOD, AND DOETH IT NOT, TO HIM IT IS SIN. 👈👈👈 James 4:17
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, 🤔 WORK OUT YOUR OWN SALVATION WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING👈👈👈. Philippians 2:12
And being made perfect, HE (JESUS) BECAME THE author of eternal salvation UNTO 🤔 ALL THEM THAT OBEY HIM👈👈👈; Hebrews 5:9
But 🤔BE YE DOERS OF THE WORD👈👈👈, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but 🤔 A DOER OF THE WORK, THIS MAN SHALL BE BLESSED IN HIS DEED👈👈👈. James 1:22-25
His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: Matthew 25:26
Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Romans 12:11
And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the FULL ASSURANCE OF HOPE 🤔🤔🤔UNTO THE END👈👈👈:🤔🤔🤔 THAT YE BE NOT SLOTHFUL, BUT FOLLOWERS OF THEM WHO THROUGH FAITH AND PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES👈👈👈🤔. Hebrews 6:11-12
