    KJV versus Modern Translations

    Lol from the man that posted video of James White one of the top Reformed apologists on YouTube. Note there are 4 other Reformed folks there . Also SG was posting to support your arguments had nothing to do with Reformed theology. So why the quip . Man you think more about Reformed theology than...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Ok I am working on digesting what you posted . I do see a connection to gifts and office concerning the amount or measure of faith yet no marks distinguishing one from the faith that saves and one that equips us to preach the gospel. Where is that shown . Also can you address why two people...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    I understand the idea of circles that is why I stated this before that I will not trouble you any further concerning this discussion. Not that I ignore you or what you post I don’t do that . I have never sought out your agreement only clarity. If your looking for my view sadly it’s not...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Ok what is the difference between the two ? Also what separates them . I take it one proceeds the other . How ? Then my last question is why when two people are presented the Gospel one is saved and the other is not ? Blessings Bill

    Lent

    Hello History b Actually you can look back all the way to Irenaus of Lyons who lived 130-200 for one of the earliest statements concerning the fast before Easter but it lasted 3 days or 40 hours in his time . Also Tertullian also mentioned it as well some 125+ years before Nicaea . Blessings Bill

    Lent

    On the number 40 there is also a connection to the 40 days and nights of rain in the historical narrative of the Flood . Then we have the 40 years in the desert spent by the children of Isreal. Moses spent 40 days and nights on MT Sinai . The Israelite spies spent 40 days surveying Canaan ...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Not to defend the Jehovah’s Witnesses, but you don’t even get them right you seem to only go by what you hear from someone else who obviously haven’t looked to to that false religion. Most Jehovah’s Witnesses don’t believe they are the 144000 . In fact they are so concerned about not having...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Actually I am quite sure of my salvation. As drawn from my understanding of the Scriptures that form my theology. I don’t share this often with folks. I have stared down men with knives and guns South of the border wondering why I have all these clothes an Bibles knowing I am saved sir so please...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Hey Vince The fact that Christians disagree on some topic or another points to the fact of man being a fallen creature more than any fault in our faith as Christians or the existence of God. You can look any where man gathers to discuss any topic there you will find disagreements it’s our...

    Progressive Christians

    Well the need for Jesus never stops for a Christian. We are to continually pray and seek Him knowing He is always near . Chronicles 16:10Glory in His holy name; Let the heart of those who seek the Lord be glad. 11Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face continually. As for the seven worse...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Hello Farouk I do agree my address is to thoughts of logic . It’s not directed to his theology but to his reasoning as to why he draws his conclusions. This helps in a fair exchange of ideas. Having a proces where both sides get a hearing and each gets a answer. I know everything may not be...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    Ok first in bold . Reformed theology is a denomination belief so you did address it to denominational beliefs. The only way to debate or discuss is by contrast . It’s simple it’s debate and discussion 101 . Somthing you can pick up on in high school debate clubs . Contrasting is used to help...
