Do Works Prove You're REALLY Saved? w/ Allen Parr | My Response 

I address the passages cited by Allen below: Philippians 2:12 -------> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8ZIvioDh1qc.html John 15 -------> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-41b1FZx-uuk.html James 2 -------> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-usCuIboBxgI.html

"You will never experience a perfect assurance when the basis of your assurance is imperfection" Amen. That is why there are so many "devoutly religious" persons who aren't 100% sure of their salvation. Only He is perfect. The rest of us are sinners.

"For HIM that Worketh NOT but BELIEVES upon HIM that justifies the ungodly"!

Christ alone , faith alone...the death, burial and ressurection of the Son of God is what saves a person...that is the gospel message.

People like this used to confuse me, I thought that if I didn't preach the gospel all the time and if I wasn't "picking up my cross every day" that I was going to hell or something, but this gospel is more clear than the one that they are teaching which is definitely works

"You don't have to do anything else but believe" - Yeah, that's the meaning of a gift.

These are the type of teachings that had me messed up when seeking God. Glad you put this video out for people who maybe going through the same thing.

Free grace is not a license to sin and there is good reason to avoid sin. I started partying in college and kept it up for 30 years. What an utter waste. I would love to have those years back. I didn't "get away" with anything at all.

Allen Parr has been casting confusion on the Gospel for a long time and I’m glad people are finally starting to take notice and put some heat on him.

Amen. It seems that 99 percent of churches mix salvation and discipleship as the same thing. Even the ones that say Ephesians 2:8 9. They redefine the words to fit their heretical positions.

I’ll never be worthy of His saving Grace. Thank the Lord Almighty we are not saved through our own worth or righteousness but that we are made righteous through Jesus Christ.

I used to do good works well dirty rags works actually when I wasn’t saved I did so to try to earn salvation but now I do it because Jesus saved me from eternal damnation

Brother I found your channel recently. Thank you for your work. Prayers are with you! I hope to fellowship with you one day

Amen! That Parr guy has been casting doubt on the word of God and salvation for a long time.

Saved in Christ alone. That's freedom. And freedom is my paradise.

good works is the manifestation of somebody's true walk with Christ. But our salvation is a gift of d grace of GOD which we are saved thru Christ.

Excellent teaching! It’s so clear faith saves. And those with no works your faith will be counted as righteousness.

Amen brother, this is good! I’ve been saved for4 years and I now understand that we are saved by simply believing not repenting from sins. God Bless

Excellent, It's faith in what Jesus Christ did for me on the cross that is the determining factor. That's because it's the Only factor. I'm not trusting repenting from some sins nor in any other works I may do as a result of any measure of dedication I may have. I'm trusting what Jesus Christ did for me on the cross and that's ALL I'm trusting for my eternal salvation.

Found you from Young Don, and its a blessing. I love your teachings. I’ve learnt so much

Amen brother. I wish I could find a local church that teaches truth the way that you do. I have searched far and long, but still haven’t found a local church that preaches salvation the correct way. Scary how much false doctrine is out there.

“Ye may KNOW that ye have eternal life!” that KJV go hard

Amen! Romans 4:5; Romans 11:6; Galatians 5:16-17; Ephesians 4:30; 2 Timothy 2:13

My new hobby is watching you expose these false teachers.

thank you brother for reminding us of how we got saved, my faith in Jesus Christ, His deity and His works on the cross. nothing to do with what i do or what i dont do.

Amen!! God knows who's His and who is not.

Yes!!! Basing your salvation upon your good works will never give you assurance even to the day you die. Because if you ever stop doing your good works before you die then I guess that means you were never really saved. But basing your assurance on God's promise of eternal life by simply believing on the Lord Jesus Christ shedding His blood on the cross to pay for your sins and rising again from the dead the third day, gives ABSOLUTE assurance! Well said brother!

Works don’t prove our faith but improve our faith.

You will never experience a perfect assurance, when the basis for your assurance is imperfection." 🔥🔥🔥

When I heard this kind of teaching and preaching I was like "It's either grace alone is right or heaven's empty!"🤣

We aren't going to pull a hard reset and just stop sinning, just because we believe in Jesus Christ. It is good to turn away from your sins, but that doesn't erase the fact that we've still sinned. We all need to believe in the lord Jesus Christ. Repent from what ever is stopping you from believing on the lord Jesus Christ. It is by grace ye are saved through faith and not of our selves. It is a gift from God. Not of works lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2-8-9)

Thank you for clarifying this & other issues. Your videos are very helpful.

Don’t you love how he says false conversion?? I mean you either believe or you don’t!! But let me tell you who the only people worried about that are, legalistic people are the only ones worried about what believers do after salvation. Because it bothers them that they are working so hard to prove or earn their salvation and you aren’t!!

The way he's sarcastically talking about the free grace position is frustrating. Im so tired of people attacking the gospel and making fun of it. It's so annoying to hear the majority of people say " we think we can do whatever we want" to me that right there sounds like their in bondage and they hate the freedom and redemption of Gods grace. In this world today in the end times there is such a small percentage of us REAl believers. Those of us that actually believe in the gospel and Christ sacrifice for salvation alone. The gospel is honestly being forgotten and removed/changed in the world by Antichrist gospels. Channel's like yours are some of the last few standing on the solid rock of the Almighty. It is refreshing and very much needed. I hope and pray that God will send more people your way so they can hear the gospel through your channel.

I never understand the concept of "free grace." If it's not free, then it's not grace. "But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many." Romans 5:15

Thank you brother for your teaching on the word of God true the gospel amen my brother amen.

It's very hard to believe that I am saved sometimes. Why? Because I am honest with myself and I see my depraved nature. I am incapable of saving myself, only Jesus Christ could do that. Praise be to God the father through our Lord Jesus Christ that he didn't wait for me to save myself.

Amen! My son-in-law prior to salvation was a good natured, kind, gentle man. After he realized the gospel is true and he believed, he is still a good natured, kind, gentle man; Who knows he needs Jesus. 😊😊😊😊

the word "false convert" had me in a tail spin for months. I still struggle with it sometimes. I believe in Jesus and His finished work. But the teachers that talk of false conversion made me doubt if I believed right. satan likes to attack me with those doubts alot

Excellent, clear explanation. Many thanks, Brother. Most appreciated.

Amen Onorato Diamante...excellent! I have to LOL...because these pastors are all cut from the same cloth...so proud...you can see it right away...Yet, It really isn't funny, and we need to pray for them...they just can't let salvation be solely of Christ...and do you notice that they all think you have to pray or ask to be saved when the gospel is by simply believing...they are so close to the truth, yet they can't see the forest for the trees. They also never explain that yes, a Christian can live anyway he wants but God will discipline them if they get too far off track...He is very loving and patient, but God will take a rod to His Children, like all good parents do. Thank You brother for your dedication and your wonderful videos exhorting and warning people of false teacher's...may God continue to bless you, your family and your ministry. Your brother in Christ Rob :)

I downloaded so many of your videos brother ono 👍 I use to listen to so all of these false teachers you expose and actually expose because *God* is exposing them through you ❤

God bless you my brother

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:21‭-‬23‬ ‭KJV‬‬ [21] Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. [22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? [23] And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. There is only two things you can conclude from this passage. Either their works were not good enough to save them OR their works were compltely irrelevent. You can't say they didn't have works. These people didn't say "but Lord, I have believed on thy name" no, they justified themselves by the "wonderful" works they did. So again, either their works were not good enough, or they were irrelevent. And I think the part of this passage that's as telling as anything else is the end of the passage where Jesus affirms "I NEVER knew you". That part is very important. These are not people who Jesus knew for a short time but then they fell away. Jesus says to them "I NEVER knew you". So these are people that thought they believed in Jesus, they did many wonderful works in his name, and Jesus NEVER knew them. So these are not people who fell away from the faith, they never even had the faith to begin with. What's missing? FAITH! What were they putting their faith in? Their WORKS. They gave Jesus lip service, but at the end of the day, the thing they were counting on to get them to heaven was their works, NOT JESUS. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved. Amen

Allen Parr proved he is not saved because he said that salvation is by belief in Christ alone but that he needs works to prove and or maintain his salvation which means he does not believe in Christ alone for his salvation.

I love you brother! I'm going to see you in heaven and I'm going to thank you for preaching God's word God willing.

Galatians 6:15-16. 15 "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but A NEW CREATURE. 16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.".

Absolutely, thanks bud 👍

Amen, I still have sins in my body and it's very hard to control and be a good Christian. I believe that we are saved by Grace. I was always not sure if I'm really Saved.

Free grace theology position is biblical. Faith for salvation Service for discipleship. Great teacher you are ever brother ☺️..

I used to listen to Parr before I was saved. When it all comes down to it, his position is a works based salvation. That you have to "prove" your faith. Thanks for the video brother

Love how he butchered the free grace position by alluding that we teach a sinners prayer or that a simple "confession" of belief saves...smh

You are a blessing brother

Allen Par amongst others who call people a "good" Cristian because of the works they do are the biggest of liars, and hypocrites. Just because you think you're "good" sometimes, it doesn't make you a "good" person all the time. Therefore, by God's standard of good, you aren't good at all. Only The Lord God is Good. He's never failed or ceased to do what he's said he'd do, or to be the God he says he is.

Good works are fruits It ain’t something that you gots force yourself to do

Works backloaders might say that believing on Jesus is not enough for a man to be saved, that he also needs to be circumcised. Or, works backloaders might say a man doesn’t need to be circumcised in order to be saved but if the man is really saved, he will want to be circumcised. However, if being circumcised proves that a man is saved, then the implied stipulation is that a man must be circumcised in order to be saved. In any case, what saith the scripture: Galatians 6:15-16 KJV 15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. 16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God. In other words, works backloaders do not align with the RULE of no works for salvation. Whether it be circumcision or some other work that a man hasn’t fulfilled, the point I’m making is that works do not save us, prove we are saved, or keep us saved.

Amen my brother 💯💯💯

Amen, thank you for the wonderful message

The Bible doesn't say that works is evidence that a person is really saved! Onorato, great explanation brother!

Love this channel, keep up the good work and God bless you brother

Thank you for this!

I know I am saved because I follow the will of the Father which is to believe in Jesus for my salvation. However, I do want to do good things and pray that I will be guided to carry the light of Jesus out into the world to help. But I don’t know what to do and I don’t feel inspired or guided to do anything yet. What do I do now? I know I am a wretched sinner and can do nothing of myself.

Loving your work yet again dude, much love and God bless

Thief on the cross …

These people are simply carnal in their thinking. That's the problem. The focus on the flesh, not on the Spirit. They brush faith to the side and put the spotlight on works. It's always the same "oh yeah sure you have to believe, BUT...." or they quote "the demons also believe and tremble" (omitting half of the verse) and so forth. This shows that they may not be saved because they downplay faith, when in the bible it's FAR more emphasized than works ever are. In fact it's the most important thing. As Paul says: "Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?" (Gal 3:3 KJV) The sad thing is that if you think you need to prove your salvation by works (and you are saved), then those works will most likely all be burned up.

I don't need rewards because he's our exceeding great reward. I just want Christ. He's enough

Allen Parr is talking out both sides of his mouth Thanks for making this video

Thanks bro

Matthew 16:27 - For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

Acts 16:31 Believe and thou shall be saved.. Hebrews 10:10-“By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.” (ONCE FOR ALL)

Thank you so much for making this video my brother in Christ! This has strengthened my faith in God greatly! 🙏

Alan Parr is a Calvinist. It’s shameful how he framed free grace. What all these people who believe their works save them or keep them saved don’t understand is that they are not saved and don’t have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The free grace people are saved and do have the Holy Spirit. We don’t have to strive so hard to be good because the Holy Spirit is the one doing the work IF we submit to God and do our part (pray, read our bible) That doesn’t make sense to them because they are striving so hard to be Holy and in right standing with God, while we already are. We can rest in his goodness and let him do the work in us.

Free Grace rejects repeating prayers for salvation

Thank God for Mr Diamante.

Salvation is so easy that even a child or a dumb man (without any insult) can be saved. What Allen Parr teaches is quite uneasy to believe. Let's pray for this man

Great response.

7:02 🎉 thank you for clarifying this!

I agree with good works are a show of your salvation but too many people preach if you do any works then you are on a works based salvation. If you don't have any good works, then how are you saved? The Holy Ghost is not dwelling in you. Eph 2:10 says 'unto good works'. Too many people leave out verse 10.

So, I used to watch some of Mr. Parr's videos a long time ago, but I remember seeing some videos of his on Seventh Day Adventists, SDA's, and in one of those videos, if I remember correctly, he says he has family members that are SDA'S. He offers up disagreements with SDA'S but minimizes those differences with conservative evangelical Christianity. I knew he was in great error then, as Seventh Day Adventism is a cult, in my opinion, and that group is not Christian.

Faith in Christ will lead to works, brother.

“Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭3:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Amen brother

If works ensured Salvation well Mormons and Jehovah Witnesses would outdo Born Again.

One of the reasons I know that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus' finished work is because it is unlike every single other religion that was ever invented throughout history. That is why few can receive it. It's actually a lack of humility that prevents someone from receiving what they do not, and never could, deserve. That's the reason the Pharisees wouldn't believe on Jesus. They absolutely hated the thought that God would be so gracious to "sinners." Of course, they failed to acknowledge that they needed a Savior just as much as everyone else. Pride will not receive the gift of God. If you insist on paying for the gift, you can't receive it. Period. If you believe, you are given the RIGHT to become a child of God. It amazes me that so many people willingly reject that right that is freely given. Only those who humbly acknowledge that they are just as needy as anyone else will receive the gift. It's like refusing to allow the lifeguard to save you from drowning because you won't admit that you can't swim.

Hi Ono sorry I have to use my sister's account to reach you but my name is Meredith I like your videos a lot you have been a blessing.when I witnessed to someone the other day and they asked how do you believe on Jesus what exactly does that mean? I didn't know exactly how to explain. Please help me to explain correctly. Thank you ono have a blessed day.

Amen brother!!!

The attitude that good works prove you are saved is simply self-righteousness. What they are saying is, even though you say you believe, you don't really, REALLY believe like ME. See it's all about them. They are the "true" believers because they really, really, REALLY believe and the reason they think they REALLY believe and you don't is because they are impressed with their own works. They are looking at themselves like "man, I'm so great, if other people believed like I believe, they would look like ME". They pay God lip service, but it's all about themselves, how they look, what they do. God is really nowhere in the equation. Because if it was really God that was working, not themselves, they wouldn't be able to boast about doing more works than others. They wouldn't be able to say things like "believing isn't enough" because they would understand that the works are all CHRIST. As soon as someone says "believing isn't enough" then you know they are going to put the responsibility on YOU instead of on the SAVIOR.

Love your videos brother keep em comin

If I had to “prove” myself to every human being, every last human being would have different criteria for whether or not I’m really good and saved. Implying that a person who has believed the gospel would be so cavalier is the usual slander. I’m disappointed in Alan and won’t be listening to him anymore.

Why would I have to "prove" I am saved? Prove to whom? Man? Man's opinion is irrelevant about my salvation. Prove my salvation to God? That's even more ridiculous.

My wife wanted to know what test the spirits mean. 1 John 4. I said look at verse 2. 1 John 4:2 (KJV) Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: Notice it didnt say whosoever doth great works is of God.

A drowning man can't do anything to save themselves. All they can do is depend on someone else to save them. These unsaved, drowning devils want to take the glory from God for saving them. They want to say "well yeah, God saved me, but... I HELPED".

This is correct doctrine to the best of my knowledge.

Allan Parr is a mixed up false teacher. I would strongly encourage to mark and avoid

Faith is way beyond acknowledging. Abraham faith was three things: trust, risk and surrender, this is taking Christ and His Gospel at His word

Allen saying he doesn’t believe in works based salvation but he believes in works produced salvation is just him telling us he believes in retroactive works based salvation w out Him saying it outright 🤡

Allen is preaching Works salvation.

Loving your videos brother! God bless you and your channel! 🙏🏾

I have been saved for a long time doing works for Jesus. Now that i am told loveing God and doing good works isn't important, now i am free. I need money desperately, going to Steel my neighbors car, he has 2. Why not, I'm free,, screw doing good for people, i am saved, why burn good energy.

Works don’t save; should you continue to live in sin? No
