I went through quick because you're all over, as I've said before, and this does not make it easy to reply to you. Your general theme is that I don't understand Calvinism. I post John 3:16 and you SEEM to agree with it. You post Romans 2 about God giving some over to their lusts and you don't...

Hi Jay Ross Who can know for sure? Each side will have their own story and only they will ever know the details. What I DO know for sure is that it's the husband that wants to dissolve the marriage and the wife (my friend) SEEMS to be a "good" wife..whatever that means to each one of us...

Thanks marks...of course I agree. So you understand this passage to be for all of us, in general. Regarding your first post, no. 9... do you believe we could do works that are not in the spirit? Aren't all the works we do in the spirit?

I don't think this is what 1 Cor 3 is speaking about. I believe it's speaking about our pastors/teachers and about how THEIR work will be judged and some of it will be like hay and wood and some of it will be like gold and silver. The hay and wood will be burned but our elders will still be...

I think the above is getting close. Verse 10 tells us to be careful HOW we build upon it. One of the questions would be: Are all of us building the house of God....or is this just for pastors/teachers, etc.? Yes...verse 12 states that the wood, hay and straw will be burned because they were...

I'm not sure this passage is about our works. I believe it's about how we grow the Kingdom of God.. or, at least, those that are supposed to. Could you reread and then comment again? If you have time...

Are you a parrot?? WHY do you keep repeating the same sentence over and over? Are you a robot?? Do you think GOD doesn't want you to clarify what you're talking about? Jeremiah 9:23-24 Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might...

There was NO CLARIFICATION Brightfame. NONE. If someone asks you for clarification it means they think they might be misunderstanding something you're posting. It's common courtesy to reply to the member and attempt to clarify. THEN..they can still agree with you or disagree with you, but this...

I was going to post this under WOMEN'S LOCKER ROOM but decided the input of the men here would be good too. I have a friend that has been married over 25 years. Her husband decided he wants to quit the marriage - we don't know why...I don't think there's anyone else involved and neither does...

I put this under BIBLE STUDY. Been studying the bible many many years now. There's still so much to learn and to know. So we should stop and see exactly what Paul is trying to say in each and every one of his letters. You know...get beyond the generalities...if you're interested; not everyone...

This is all true Taken...but Trump needs speed this time around. He's not being tricked like last time with the bad advice he got from the Swamp creatures... The ATMOSPHERE has already changed. Operations on minors have already stopped. A lot of change has been caused just by the trickle down...

No. The generalities were correct. Could you read my post no. 7 and see what you think?

@Hey You! Oh no! Your work for the IRS!! We met a couple on a cruise long ago. The husband wouldn't tell anyone his line of work...there were 8 of us at the dining room table.. Ended up that he worked for the IRS but didn't want anyone to get on his case! LOL

Taken,,,we discussed this on another forum and, same thing, no one really reads this through very well/thorougly. Look at verse 4...who is it speaking of? Look at verses 11 and 12....who are THEY speaking of (the verses). I'm looking for a different opinion, but getting general responses...

Your post is general in nature. 1 Cor 3 is speaking about very specific persons. Do you think verse 4 has any clues as to who this passage is speaking about?

You'd be banned BF....you know where, for making such mean comments. But this is how Calvinists are.....Never understood why. BUT OK...IF you are UNABLE to make yourself be clear... then I'll have to go ahead and believe that you've created another conflict. Will wait for the next one to come...

OK But where does it state a loss of rewards? I understand it to mean that the person will make heaven... BUT JUST BARELY.... 1 Cor 3:15 15If any man’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire. And what works would not glorify God?

Agreed Chandlere880 We are certainly being made into the image of Christ. But in Genesis it states that God made us in His image. Certainly not in form since God is spirit and is invisible. HOW do you think God made us in His image? What attributes of God's do you think He passed on to us?

1 Corinthians 3:15 states that a man's work will be burned up but he will be saved,,, though as through fire. Who is verse 15 speaking of? 1 Corinthians 3:4-15 4For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not mere men? 5What then is Apollos? And what is Paul...

Of course salvation can be lost.... Jesus said so. Paul said so. There's a plethora of verses to support forfeiture of salvation... and I do believe it's a very important topic since a person's very salvation is at stake. 1. You should not assume anything about a member. 2. If you respond to...
