    And behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth to destroy all flesh wherein is the breath of life from under heaven; and every thing that is on the earth shall die." Gen 6:17

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    Even if that were the case? Its irresistible, because of the volition of the one who find's God's nature that way. Just like Satan and his angels found God resistible from free will. To think God is irresistible by default? Makes the believer persist when he should know when to back off...

    I was talking about those whom God clearly was drawing, and had rejected the drawing. You went to Gentiles who accepted God's drawing, showing its a choice granted by grace, The point I was wishing to make? God's drawing is not irresistible. Problem is... Some claim that God generates...

    There is a market for it. $$$ They are scholars from the wrong side of the "tracts."

    Stay away from Calvinism for that one, please. Romans 1:18-23. It says that God had been drawing them and got them to know He is real. If his drawing could not be resisted? They all would have not resisted and created lies to suppress the truth they had been made to know. Verse 27 says they...

    All are condemned in Adam. All were already condemned from birth. But, we're changing it to why some do not believe in Jesus.

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    Who does God hand over to Jesus so they will believe? Those whom God was able to draw. Those the Father hands over were not condemned by Him. Why would someone be already condemned? For refusing God's drawing!

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    Let's take the worst, most disgusting kind of reprobate the Bible mentions? Even such as those, God attempted drawing them! The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known...

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    Men do not reject Jesus Christ simply when presented the Gospel. Their "rejection" is symptomatic of the root cause of their rejection. The rejection that condemns them took place while God was drawing that person. That is why it says, he stands "already condemned." For the person who does...

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    Where does it say the soul will end? It will be in a constant state of death. In a constant state without a body a soul needs to be connected to the world its in... But, it does not say the existence of a soul will terminate anywhere in the Bible. What is a dead soul? We already...

    Man's soul will end in the Lake of Fire if he rejects God. It does not cease to exist. Animals are disposable souls. They serve a function in this created world.

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    Because.. Romans 1:19-20 they accept, not reject.... Since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature— have been clearly seen, being understood from...

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    You miss a big difference. God created animal souls as generic souls. "Disposable souls." When God created man and woman's souls? So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them." Genesis 1:27 Animal souls were not...

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    I am going to try to use your line of reasoning. It says, the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit." Is not the Father "spirit?" But we also have the Holy Spirit. Is that to mean the Father is not Holy? God created nephesh (souls) for the animals in Genesis One. Does that mean we are animals...

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    God's essence is spirit. That is why it says God is spirit. You totally missed the point.

    He has given the animal to us to represent a higher reality. Why can't you see that? When he said... "this is my blood?" Did that mean he has grape juice in his veins???

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    From God's perspective as found in the Word we must learn to see ourselves. I am not my flesh since I have been saved! I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved...

    Why are Bible scholars leaving Christianity?

    It only says the life of the *animal* is in its blood. Not man. Leviticus 17:11 For the life (the animal) is in the blood, and I have given it for you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement, by reason of the life [which it represents] The...

    You crossed over and confused the issue with blood being the issue. Its interesting to know. But its not the blood that makes one a sinner.

    And likewise... Ok, that is one person's interpretation. Yours. And . while we are at it? You said.... Why a virgin? Could not Jesus have been born of a prostitute and still be sinless?
