    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    From what you just responded yes. That is the basic idea of 'election', though if you read into covenant theology, you'll get a much clearer picture! I would suggest the book "The Call of Grace" by Norman Shepherd. Great little book, and wonderful introduction to covenant theology, and how it...

    Sola Scriptura 2

    But who was Jesus? Was he a 'good teacher?' Was he a non-deity human prophet? Was He God in the flesh? You cannot read the Scriptures without a theological, presuppositional backdrop from which you make inferences.

    Sola Scriptura 2

    How can you share Bible truths without theology? The Bible is all about Jesus from start to finish. But... who was Jesus? The moment you begin explaining who He was, you have crossed over into theology (the study of God). You cannot have one without the other. You cannot claim to believe...

    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    God respecting their choice? Read tell that to Cain and Abel (Rom. 9) Tell that to Pharaoh when God hardened his heart! Men cannot override the will or plan of God. And He does not cater his plan to the whims of each and every individual. His plan is to bring Himself ultimate glory- THAT...

    The Myth of saying that Jesus Christ died for all men without exception !

    So... is God not powerful enough to save all men or... because if your interpretation is correct, and god wills all men to be saved but all are not saved... does that mean he's just not powerful enough to save us or keep us from 'perishing'? And if Christ was the ransom for ALL men... everyone...

    Scripture alone with no interpretation!!! *proceedes to try and defend this statment using personal interpretation of scripture.*

    The Trinity definition

    Well firstly, I would like to extend greeting. I am not Christophony, which leads me to wonder how well you actually read things that are posted; are you open to correction, or is being right more important than having the truth? With that out of the way, I would like to address a couple of...

    The Trinity definition

    Pretty sure Jesus answers this question; By whose name are we saved? Matt. 28 Verses 19 to 20 [19] Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, [20] teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and...

    Does ALL sins include "Past, Present and Future" sins?

    Interesting question, but that's like saying "Oh, he paid off your debt? How is that not a license to go accumulate more debt?!" Have you no conscience?! Your first response to a man laying off your debt is to go out and accumulate more, seeing his kindness as a license to be indebted? What...

    My Lord And Savior Is Not A "SISSIFIED NEEDY JESUS", But HE is a GOD of WRATH!!

    If I may brush off the dust and interject, I believe that what @SovereignGrace means is that we need to define our terms. When reading through this, I saw many times that you said that we don't want to talk Christ, and there is an actual reason why they have been hesitant to do so. We must...
  11. Studies in the Book of John

    John 1:1-2

    John 1:1-2 ~ Here we see that Christ has existed outside of time and space, and outside of Creation. This proves the fact that Christ was not a created being, but rather IS God Himself; the 2nd person of the Trinity [Gen. 1:1 ; Rev. 3:14 ; Col. 1:17-18 ; Micah 5:2 ; Heb. 1:3] ~ We see that...

    Studies in the Book of John

    A verse-by-verse look at the gospel of John. Taken from my own personal studies, it will go through and break down the message of the gospel, and prayerfully show forth the glory of Christ in all things.

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Ok. Theology. The study of God. Was He a man at one point. [I've been trying to talk theology, all I get is avoided and told you don't even know if you believe something.]

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    So... you still don't know if God was a man? Or if you believe it? Right then; and then we wonder why people believe that Mormonism is a cult. Outsiders like us just can't understand it if the Mormons themselves don't know

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Here's what I am saying; You don't need to have information correct to know if you believe it. Is there a set truth about how the 3-are-1; yes. But some people still believe falsely about the "how". But they still believe. It's not believing correctly that I'm concerned with; it is having...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    I said that it does. But again; this is more of a compound question. You may be wondering, what does that mean? Here, I'll show you; using only yes or no, answer the question "How is God 3 in 1". Impossible, right? Now, using only yes or no, answer if you believe that God is 3-in-1...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    That's not the same question! Because your view on the mechanisms of the Trinity radically change who God is. How the 3 persons are interrelated is a much, much harder question than "Was God a man?" The 2 aren't even CLOSE! The difference is it is possible to misinterpret one and not the...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    No... not really at all. Hebrews 11:1 Faith does not require knowing any of the hows. In fact, evidence of faith is that you do not know the hows but are personally convicted anyways. So again, please answer the question.

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    Not asking you to explain HOW it works; just if it is true. Do you have faith in this truth? And EVEN IF YOU DON'T, THAT'S OK!!!!!! DO YOU BELIEVE THAT IT IS EVEN POSSIBLE?!?!?! If you asked me if I believe that God is 3 in 1 I would say yes. If you asked me if I believed it is possible I...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    The difference is this; I know I have faith in this truth, and would stand on it firmly; you told me you don't know if it is true, you don't know if you believe it, and you don't know if it could even be POSSIBLE to be true. If you want to hold to this logic, I'm fine!! I do not understand...
