    So where does faith come from? I agree.

    The view of the "Gentleman God" who honors human will above His own.

    Absolutely. If he had free will why ask his Father; he could've taken the cup away himself, no? Peace.

    The view of the "Gentleman God" who honors human will above His own.

    Yes, according to most of Christianity. Good for you and God bless you. Not even Jesus had free will. Peace.

    Simple : Yet Astounding

    Hello Behold. And the the gospel is the Word of God and the Word of God is Christ so yes it is God who gives us Faith. Peace.

    3 God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

    Hello Joe. Yes the "Two Witnesses" (Rev 11) represent all the Elect. Please elaborate on how the Two Witnesses teach the pathway to salvation that Christ causes His Elect to travel. Romans 8 20 For the creature WAS MADE subject to vanity (we are made this way), NOT WILLINGLY, but by reason of...

    3 God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

    Hi Joe, my name is Eric, by the way. I would say I'm on board with most of what you're saying, but a few things are not quite sitting right with me. I don't have time to respond to all of the post but I intend to and maybe we will come to total agreement. More than likely I am misunderstanding...

    3 God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

    Yes. I know who does the judging as and with Christ and who the lake of fire is: For many are called, but few are chosen. (Mat 22:14) But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of...

    3 God our Savior, 4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

    Well said Joe. I agree wholeheartedly. And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the WHOLE WORLD. (1 John 2:2) Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? (Isa 53:1) God Bless.

    There is only one true church

    And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, COME OUT OF HER, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her PLAGUES. (Rev 18:4)

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. (1 John 4:14) Those that believe in everlasting torment, torture or annihilation, are claiming that Christ will fail at what his Father sent him to do. And if any man hear my words, and believe not, as...

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    Hey, I always wanted to meet Barney Fife; such a hoot! Interestingly enough, I have a red-headed grandson named Andy. No it’s not quite Opie but his cousin was just born and they were deciding whether to name her Opal or not. My daughter says, “If you name her Opal I can call her ‘Opie’.” They...

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    No I never said that; you came to that conclusion, I guess, based on your expertise in English. Why would I try to prove something I didn’t say? That is an unscriptural, unprovable opinion. Jesus did not "CLEARLY [warn] us of Hell Fire for unbelievers!" Jesus was hardly ever clear on...

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    No my problem is with your doctrine. aionios (g166) should never be translated "everlasting" or "eternal' or "ever" as in "forever and ever." The term "forever and ever" is one found in fairy tales like those portrayed in Disney films. aionios (g166) should be translated to the English word...

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    In other words, you have no idea what you're preaching about do you? Typical fundamentalist nonsense.

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    So seriously, what's the point in having two separate fires, prior to them merging?

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    Here's scripture for you: And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. (Rev 20:14) You seem to be of the opinion that "hell" and the lake of fire are the same thing. Can you explain how hell is cast into, well, hell?

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    Thank you. Nice to meet you. Lots. Then it becomes a club. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death...

    Jesus talked about hell more than anything else in the Bible. - Seriously?

    The idea that Jesus talked about hell more than heaven is just one more damnable church doctrine that’s just utter nonsense; another fear tactic to help feed the coffers.

    The Book Of Life

    God does not literally write names into a literal book then literally blot them out of said literal book that is kept in a literal throne room. The book of life is not a literal list of saved people. It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto...
