We hope to see you as a part of our community soon and God Bless!
You don’t like me because I showed, through the Bible, how your “conversion experience” is no where to be found and is “unbiblical”. It hurt your feelings.
I’m glad I could help provide you an example.You are still not posting "to" this topic.
No, you did not "hurt my feelings"....I am solid in what I believe and in Whom I believe.
In that thread of yours you just kept on telling me and other posters, that our 'salvation experience' was not valid, and those of us , like @Hidden In Him and others , who were saved ALONE with God...could not way be saved. ( not that he was in your thread)
So ...Hummmm on second thoughts. @Miss Hepburn and EVERYONE in this thread...we have right here a perfect example of a person who fells they have every right to tell someone else that they are in fact NOT a child of God. Thank you for the example.
Maybe we should all leave and let you have this "Christian" site to yourself...because by YOUR own definition , you are the only truly saved "christian" here!! What a clever boy. You win.
@Enoch111 @Bobby Jo @Triumph1300 @lforrest @Episkopos and all the rest who posted here..can't remember you all.
You would know there is wilful blindness when you would present clear Scripture and the response would be to ignore what was presented, and continue posting the erroneous belief. Let's say you presented someone with clear Scripture that Christ died for the sins of the whole world (all humanity). The proper response would be to acknowledge the truth and turn away from the error. However, wilful blindness would be to continue to insist that Christ died only for the so-called "elect".
No, I am not talking about denial. The reasonable expectation of every Christian is that other Christians will take Scripture very seriously and respond accordingly.
No one can know the inner motives of others. But we can clearly see their wilful blindness when they refuse and reject the truth.
True enough, although this was applied by Christ to false teachers. Most of us do not follow the lives of others closely, so we cannot really know their fruits. Furthermore, if someone never discloses their offerings to God, and yet gives very generously (a la the widow's mite) you would have no clue about their fruits, so how could you judge them?
The question WOULD pertain to this topic.
I confirmed this recently in another post. But we have three issues being all treated as one issue:
I created a hypothetical situation to make a point.
Are we talking calvinist theology?
I actually read Calvin long AFTER forming my beliefs. I read Calvin afterwards because folks called me a Calvinist.
People use the word as a term of abuse; but often they don't even know what they are talking about.
so pearl my apologies OK, but imo this believing that we might not have God's forgiveness is where the whole hair ball starts rolling downhill. God forgives us the same way you would forgive a three or four-year-old for some slight, surely?
