Unit 2 Choice 1

1) Why we must continue doing the work for our salvation?
According to Ezekiel 3:20 there are many “stumblingblocks” in life. The reason why we must continue to work on our salvation is because we are not perfect, we will stumble and fall. If we don’t try picking our selves up or in other words repenting then we will die in our sins and no unclean thing can enter into the kingdom of God.

2) Paul’s teaching of salvation.
Romans 12:1-reasonable service.
Romans 12:2- transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Romans 12:9- Love be without dissimulation, cleave to good, Abhor Evil.
Romans 12:13- hospitality and caring for others necessity.
Romans 12:16- be considerate
Romans 12:21- over come evil with goodness.
Romans 13:1- be subject to the higher powers of God.
Romans 13:3- do good.
Romans 13:8- love one another and don’t’ have debut.
Romans 13:9- Love thy neighbor as thy self, do not commit adultery, don’t kill, don’t steal, and don’t bear false witness.

3) What cautions did Paul give about judging?
            He reminded us in Romans 14: 10 that “ we shall stand before the judgment seat of Christ.” And it is not our place to put “stumblingblocks” (Romans 14:13) in our brothers way because it’s ultimately between them and Christ.

People may have different opinions and practices, but what is most important to remember?
            The only person that had to right to judge and condom was Christ. But we are reminded in Romans 15; 3 that “Christ pleased not himself.” It doesn’t matter what someone else is doing or hasn’t been doing it is our responsibility to “bear the infirmities’ of the weak.” Romans 15:1.

What additional insights come from reading D&C 38:25-27?
            Here we will find the parable about a father with 12 sons. He says to one sit hear, in fine robes. To the other’s he says sit their in the dirt while wearing rags. We have to be just and fair to others in this life.

4) What is the term Paul used to refer to church members in his day?
            The term Paul used to describe church members was Saints.
