    Are We Saved by Grace Alone?

    I can only answer for myself mick...........CERTAINLY NOT........We as believers better not put our feet up and relax......dont miss the point of my last post.......true salvation can only be accomplished through the HOLY SPIRIT and HIS drawing one to CHRIST.....HE draws because of GODs electing...

    Are We Saved by Grace Alone?

    Daniel........I challenge you to give us a scripture that without a doubt supports your theory of a lost unregenerated soul has an "eagerness to know HIM"....You are correct about an "action on our behalf" but the scriptures declare that without the drawing to GOD by the Holy Spirit we would...

    Where do babys go?

    Great verses kriss..........Paul certainly did assure the believer that for them/us to be absent from the body(dead physically) would mean we are present with the LORD(spiritually)......though this is not assurance that unborn/infants who die are ALL with the LORD......I sure wish we had a...

    Where do babys go?

    Jen ......your serious question is easily answered by reading job 15:14 which states that ALL are concieved and born in sin.....then there is eph 2:3 which states that every man "by nature" is a child of wrath..a child of the devil says matt 13:38 and john 8:44..... It would be marvelous if ALL...

    Free Grace!!!!!!

    Amen.............GOD does as HE pleases (ps 115:3)......He calls whom HE purposes to save and whom He purposed to save, and whom HE calls, HE forknew and whom HE forknew, HE predestinated...whom HE predestinated, HE calls..whom HE calls, HE justifies, whom HE justifies HE glorifies.....(rom...

    24 Elders

    I have a question concerning the post.....yesterday I posted an answer at 11:47 concerning the matter of the 24 elders...in it I gave scriptural proof to the validity of these elders being represenatives of the Church raptured.....I was just wondering why it was not posted. Although it and a...

    24 Elders

    Fox.........these 24 Elders you describe as spiritual bodies are described in a much revealing way in rev 4:8-11......They are described as those who are redeemed by the blood of our Savior...they came from every tribe and tongue and peoples and nations...and have been made Kings and priests to...

    24 Elders

    Kriss...I appreciate you alerting me to what seems to be a firm conviction of the powers that be on the chat board that have taken this stand.....I respect your stand, Im not surprised that this room has declared such a theory. I also understand how one can be leary of a beliefe that is embraced...

    Free Grace!!!!!!

    Oh my..do you have this turned around....it is obvious that you do not know too much about the calvinist beliefe.......Calvinist proclaim ,more than anything, that salvation is NOT by works and appearences......thats all l will say except to assure you that I myself am not a calvinist.....John...

    24 Elders

    It will become apparent to you that I believe in the pre-tribulation rapture of the precious Church of GOD(all believers on earth) by my answer to this question...... First of all the elders are represenatives...for more information concerning elders in the history of israel you can turn to 1...

    Where do babys go?

    Alright then...........Now the cream comes to the top......what you are saying is that ALL souls return to GOD for judgment. That is a far cry from the original implied thought that the souls of unborn children go to be with the LORD (as in that eternal place of bliss). I too have a mutual...

    Where do babys go?

    Not in the way you describe it Fox......You are supposing that the soul of a unborn child returns to GOD....You can not do that and stay within the realm of scripture. The preahcer in ecc. 12:6-7 is speaking of death for sure but he makes references to gen 2:7 and 3:19....and his message ends...

    Where do babys go?

    Actually the eccl. 12:7 verse points to the fact that GOD giveth and GOD taketh away.......and the 2nd cor. verse Paul was addressing elect believers of the church of Corinth..... The only real scripture in respect to what happens to the unborn child is when David states that he will once again...

    Can we ask forgiveness on behalf of others?

    We can and and should ask that GOd forgive a particular sinner.....of course our prayers and request are motivated by the HOLY SPIRIT for we know not how to pray aright.....I pray each day for lost loved ones and aquaintenances. I pray for their souls.....so of course I am praying for...

    Free Grace!!!!!!

    Scripture must be compared with Scripture to discover the truth of any biblical subject....for example....John 6:37 says "him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out".....on the surface this statement sounds as though anyone can come to Christ....Of course on furthur study we find that...

    ALL for HIS glory

    Greetings.....As a way of introduction I would like to say that I consider it a blessing to be able to communicate with GODs people in this manner. Being able to witness/share GODs word with ohters regularly from the convience and comfort of ones home is a plus for us older folks who so desire...
