    Total adherence to Calvinism makes God the author of evil

    Overall, Calvinism is incompatible with free will. God's Sovereign Will is everpresent and always ready to be enacted at His good pleasure... ...but He does not exercise it for absolutely every minute decision that is made by mortal man, as Calvinism purports. If a man were to kill another...

    Is 1 Thes 4:17 the same event as Rev 1:7 and Matt 24:27?

    Is 1 Thessalonians 4:17 the same event as Revelation 1:7 and Matthew 24:27? And would this indicate that there will be no rapture, only a second coming and judgement? Discuss.

    Convince me of Annihilationism

    (speaking as a man) I'm feeling cognitively dissonant. I want to believe in Annihilationism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annihilationism. I want to believe scriptures such as Psalms 37:10 Psalms 37:20 Psalms 37:36 refer to the eternal state of sinful man rather than speaking only about life...

    Great falling away (is this happening now?)

    Adherence to Christianity is declining in many first world countries today. Christian persecution by sword is increasing elsewhere. It has become increasingly fashionable to hold Christianity in derision on this great mecca known as the internet. Counterfeit pharmakeia-addled spirituality...

    Is our occupation here related to our occupation hereafter?

    Wide open question. I think it's possible that it is in a way related. Which is why we are to work at the job we are given as though we were serving the Lord.

    Is having Faith in the gospel considered a "work"?

    I've been having a discussion with certain Calvinists lately who claim that holding Faith in the gospel should be considered a work of man, thus Total Depravity is established and Arminianism must be false, for if one chooses to obey the gospel it then becomes works-based salvation (which both...

    To start off, I'm more inclined to think of the "Soul" being more interchangeable with the concepts of "Mind" and "Heart" than Spirit is. I will attempt to explain why using scripture below, but first I'd like to get a few premises up. I believe the Spirit aspect of our being is not entirely...

    1/3 Big Psalms Thread (1-50)

    Confidence in the Flesh...

    In view of sinless perfectionism, if someone rests in their good works and sanctification of the flesh, can it be said that they are putting their confidence in their flesh? When Christian's look to their obedience as their rock and sustainer of their salvation, more or equally so than to...

    I witnessed someone speaking in tongues today

    I've been fairly skeptical about tongue speaking for quite some time, as and I can't say that I had honestly encountered it before today. But I do believe what I experienced this morning was real, and I'm exceedingly grateful for it. — I was attending a prayer meeting before service for some...
