bdavidc replied to the thread If sealed with the HS, how does one become UNsealed ?.I agree. False professors do not prove that Christ loses His sheep. They prove the warnings of Scripture are true. That is exactly why...

bdavidc replied to the thread Dumbing it down!.No, that is not what I said, and it is not what Scripture says. Scripture does not put God’s love, holiness, wrath, justice, and fear...

bdavidc replied to the thread Win Souls, Not Arguments!.That may be true for many of us, but we need to remember where the line is between our responsibility and God’s power. We are not...
