    GP....the above is what those that believe in OSAS state.... that those that fall away never believed in the first place. This is easily addressed. Read Luke 8:13 and explain what it means. 13“Those on the rocky soil are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no...

    Right....! Right.... Agreed. Besides the fact that it's difficult to study Augustine because he changed his mind on important matters during his life-time and at times going back and forth between two understandings. I agree that sin hardens the heart. I doubt I said differently....

    Was Paul happy about this? Was he warning them?

    Oh for goodness sake marks... Are you serious? I'm gone. :balloons: I've posted the caveat. Look for it.

    DOES BELIEF THAT ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED MEAN WE CAN SIN?

    I can't read each and every one of your posts. I reply to what you post to me...which is what I did. I don't see any doubt and insecurity and I don't see any tightropes in the Christian religion/faith. If some do...it doesn't change truth doctrine that the Christian religion teaches. There's...

    I NEVER said it doesn't say that! Please post where I said that Colossians 3:4 says something different than what you're saying. WHAT I SAID IS THAT THERE'S A BIG IF TO COLOSSIANS 3:4 Colossians 1:23 IF WE CONTINUE IN THE FAITH....THEN Colossians 3:4 will be true. Take it or leave it marks. Bye.

    You must have a lot of time on your hands marks. I don't. The bible is a whole thought...an entire idea. It's not made up of verses. Do you know about exegesis? That would be good to know. Here's more scripture for you to ponder: 2 Peter 2:20-22 20For if, after they have escaped the...

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    Sir... I know you understand what I'm saying. There are conditions set to being defined as Christian. YOU, not believing in the Trinity....which is one of those conditions.... means you cannot DEFINE YOURSELF AS CHRISTIAN. Now...you can say you're a Christian all you want to.... But you are...

    You know....I wouldn't be surprised if @GracePeace stopped posting to you altogether. WHAT are you saying? How many times have I addressed your verse now? Perhaps YOU could explain the verse to us who are just unable to understand simple English.

    marks... WHAT is ambiguous about this: Colossians 1:22.23 21And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, 22yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach— 23if...

    DOES BELIEF THAT ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED MEAN WE CAN SIN?

    SS,,,,the NT will not agree with you that man cannot undo what God has done. Is this going to turn into a reformed thread? Here was my point regarding OSAS: Jesus went after the sheep. He went looking for a lost sheep. WHY was the sheep lost? Wasn't he in the flock? This means that a sheep...

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    There is NO SUCH ANIMAL as a Christian that does not believe in the Trinity. A Christian. No Trinity......No Christian. Easy. And look at John 1:1 The Word was God. The Word became flesh. So 2 are present. GOD THE WORD Or was God Father missing in heaven when THE WORD came to earth in...

    If you believe the bible is true... then you must believe it is all true. You cannot pull one verse out of the NT and make a doctrine out of it when it has conflicting verses. IF there's a conflict...then you must study and learn WHY. Colossians 3:4 is true IF we continue in the faith.

    Here's what is debatable marks... Paul also previews the return, or "second coming," of Christ. This theme is important to Paul, but can be controversial among Bible interpreters. There is debate regarding whether there will be one or two future return events of Christ. This really boils down...

    Why is the sheep lost? It was part of the flock.

    Another Christian that doesn't believe Jesus is God. Are you worshipping a man?
