After reading this thread, He might change His mind about wanting to save us...
God wants to save Christians too. --- Say what?

LOL
That's funny, but...
I believe God LOVES it when we get real. That CERTAINLY is what Jesus was about.
Therefore, I think God was smiling when he saw what was going on here.
From my perspective, there were many beautiful moments.
And I REALLY appreciate the way it lit up this morning. (in my time zone)
He did repent of making man on earth before, He can do it again!
Wow. I guess there is salvation in repentance. But...He did repent of making man on earth before, He can do it again!
(help me, I need a good punchline here)

Why are believers so hard to save?
Aren’t they already saved, if they are believers and Born Again.?
Am I’m missing something here @St. SteVen ?
I’m pretty dim to be honest, when understanding certain words.
We can’t be saved by this or that church can we?
Only God can save us from eternal damnation..by birthing us in the Spirit.
Just my thoughts Brother.

He did indeed he wiped them all out, did he not...apart from Noah and his ark full.He did repent of making man on earth before, He can do it again!
I hope I’m on the right wavelength @Nancy ..LOL.
"Wow. I guess there is salvation in repentance. But..." Let's hope God WILL find faith on earth when He returns :)

good thing he said he would never do what he did again.He did repent of making man on earth before, He can do it again!
we do know he will spread his wrath on the earth.. I believe it will be soon.
I suppose I should have put the word "believers" in quotes.
My answer in the OP was:
"They are trapped in a religious mindset. IMHO"
The questions is whether these "believers" (self-claimed?) who are
trapped in a religious mindset are actually saved. ???
We could probably agree that SOME are, but probably not ALL.
Not that we can judge, but you know what I mean.
Right.
(but I don't agree with eternal damnation) I'm a UR proponent. U can B UR 2 - LOL
Wow.
My day was MADE twice today.
I'm having an awesome day! Hope U R 2
Warms my heart to be called "brother". Thanks.
QUESTION: Why did the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers STILL exist (mentioned in Genesis chapter 2:14) after a global flood?

That’s over my knowledge or understanding at the moment, Brother....I will pray about that question..or maybe let’s cheat.
Tell me the answer?..LOL

I don’t believe a Born Again can stay trapped in a religious mindset to be honest.......for a while maybe...just my thoughts.
Ok.
Bless you Brother.

Honestly, I don't know the answer.
But it begs the question about whether the flood was actually global, or only local.
There is however, plenty of other evidence that points to a global flood.
Like shark teeth fossils in the desert. ??? Sedimentary rock formations. ???

That's interesting. I think I have met some.
What is it about "a Born Again" believer that would prevent them from staying trapped in a religious mindset?
We might differ in our definition of what a religious mindset is?
I see lots of "Born Again" believers kneeling at the altars of the false gods of apologetics and Bibliolatry.
Wouldn't you consider that to be a religious mindset?
Many others trot off to church regularly (as do I) and think that saves them somehow. (not as I do)
They believe that if they left the church, they would be damned for not "enduring to the end."

From my own understanding, the Holy Spirit is in us,..therefore we have a living relationship with God.
He is the one imo, who grows and matures us in Christ..it’s like Gods living water feeds our spirit.
It’s hard to explain, then there is the renewing of our minds.....I just stay focused on God through the Holy Spirit..I believe I am fully surrendering and letting him have his way.
Then there is the working out of our salvation.
Online source
For this to happen, God needs our cooperation with His grace, thus we need to “work out our own salvation.” We do this by reading the Bible, praying, loving the Lord, following the Lord's speaking within us, giving Christ the first place in our lives, denying our self, and fellowshipping with other believers.
My words.
This flesh is tiresome and a burden..sorry, that’s the only way I can explain it.
How would you know they are Born Again?...no more than you could possibly know that I’m Born Again..only God knows that.
That’s religious thinking is it not?

It aint humble to go after those who remind us of the DIRE NEED TO BELIEVE ON JESUS CHRIST epi .
No man , woman or child is ever gonna live up to , be made , or attain to righteouness of GOD
LEST THEY FIRST BELIEVE ON HE , JESUS CHRIST , who did all that was needed for us to BE MADE RIGHTEOUS .
DO remember that epi .
Remember it well epi .
Ponder on it , learn it , embrace it , love it . The preaching of the cross is vain if we preach not the DIRE NEED
to have BELEIVED ON JESUS CHRIST . take care to REMEMBER THAT EPI . all other religoins are false .
TIME to preach JESUS CHRIST and ALL HE DID teach as well as the apostles .
