Lord. Here there must be tolerance and love. Whoever is not against Him
in service must be against Satan and therefore on Christ’s sideRate this question:

D. The believer’s life of sacrifice must be characterized by self-judgment and devotedness, otherwise it is worthlessExplanation

a sacrifice to God. It is salted with fire, that is, mixed with self-judgment
and self-renunciation. It is salted with salt, that is, offered with a pledge of
unalterable devotedness. If the believer goes back on his vows, or fails to
deal drasticallyRate this question:
