Believeism is a false doctrine in and of itself!

I did call out to Jesus in prayer while I was repenting, but it didn't stop there!

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
John 6:40
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:47
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

Kinda like Preterism, it raises more questions than it answers!

You are right Ron that the Bible has not contradictions. Since we know that Pete tells them about salvation then they ask now what then he says repent and so on. It goes hand and hand here. You are asking me and everyone else to skip over what Pete said in Acts 2:21 about calling on Jesus to be saved. Then he tells them about about the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus then after that he tells the to go on and be baptized and so on. It ALL goes hand and hand.

Talk about those who pick and choose Scripture, I could easily post 20 more that say the same thing.

Are you separating and excluding everything we are commanded to do after we believe? There are things we do because we believe.

Right but what we "do" after we believe, doesn't save us. We do these things because we are saved not to be saved.
