Ah, you're a Superchristian. I see. :) And that you're much more... worthy... than they? :) Yes. :) Or actually reading it, apparently, because it passed from relevancy way back then? Hmmmm... :) Grace and peace to you.

Hmm, your "creators"... maybe that's a typo...? At any rate, your statement here then sort of begs the question, "Why, then, did God give us His Word?" And, Jesus is the Word, and we are to walk with Him... Hmm (again), this too is an... alarming... statement. You do know, I hope, that we...

Well, He doesn't. As the writer of Hebrews says, "Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days He has spoken to us by his Son..." (Hebrews 1:1-2). However, today, we have the written Word, of course, and we have the Holy Spirit, Who...

Actually, Jesus Himself credits Moses with the writings found in Genesis through Deuteronomy (Matthew 8:4; Mark 1:44, 7:10, 10:3-5, 12:26; Luke 5:14, 16:29-31, 20:37, 24:27, 24:44; John 3:14, 5:46, 6:32, 7:19-23). And so do Luke (Acts) and Peter and Paul (in Acts and their epistles...). Not...

Ugh. Another one... :) You know, I say, just believe in and worship and serve and glorify the Lord, and live as you are called by Him, presenting yourselves as a living sacrifice. As Paul says... Present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual...

Goodness gracious. Such wild-eyed speculations and ramblings. Looks like another... "fun"... thread. :) Grace and peace to you all.

Which... I've said, I think about a 184 times... :) Matthew 22:14. Pointed out that one, too.... Noice! :) (That's 'nice' with an Australian accent...) :) Right, 'cannot' in the sense of 'will not' ~ not in the sense of literally being unable to kneel or submit, but being absolutely...

Oh'p! I got a reaction. Seventy-seven... :) Poor thing. Didn't mean to make SI cry... :) Grace and peace to all.

Seventy-six... :) I didn't make any kind of all-encompassing statement, Spiritual Israelite. I did not in any way say you have offered nothing at all. So no, what I said was not a lie, and I am not a liar, or a "joke." Seems to me we could just chalk that up as a misunderstanding, which...

So, the 74th time is a charm...? :) And a rhetorical question, here, SI: "waste any more time on (me")... why do you even say stuff like that? Hey, I see you are doing the same with WPM now. Are you "wasting your time on" him? Truthfully, though, in a certain sense, I agree. :) You just don't...

Right; no Calvinist does that. Sola Scriptura takes care of that, and sola Gratia... and, well, all of them: Sola Scriptura (Scripture alone; God’s life-giving speech reveals to us His salvation and calls us to faith and repentance. Scripture alone is our our guide to walking with God) Sola...

Continued from above: Certainly. :) My mind is made up, obviously. :) Wait... I do have free will... Don't I...? Yes. :) Again: No. :) Again, as Paul says in Romans 6:17, "...thanks be to God..." ~ not "thanks be to yourself" :) "...that you who were once slaves of sin have...

Returned to you in full, Spiritual Israelite. Every word. The first thing that comes to mind is one of my most recent responses (Post 343, to be specific), which drew nothing but crickets. You had said that I "think that a person only believes if God gives them faith" (a little over halfway...

Okay. :) Grace and peace to you, Grafted Branch.

Gotcha. Me, too. :) Very well. His "coming as a thief" denotes His eventual coming as sudden and unexpected, and this applies to all. I feel like I've been very clear about that. Again, I think you're over-analyzing this. Hmmm... So you think it's already happened... If so, I disagree...

Anyone can speak to this, I guess... So you see, @WPM, that what you supposed, namely that "he believes faith is a gift from God," is not true. Certainly I agree with you that "there is no Plan B... it is as clear a truth as one can find in the Bible." I'm not sure how anyone could still say...

Yes, you did tell me that... :) It seemed quite insincere... :) Ah, yeah... I mean, if we met face to face, I'm sure we'd like each other. Really. Well, God forbid you make it into something entirely different that what it was. Which is exactly what you did. But that seems to have been...

Again, Spiritual Isrealite, I only said, "If I did, I don't remember it; you'd have to remind me of it." I did not say ~ nor did I insinuate ~ that you were lying or that you made it up. I only said, "If I did that, I don't remember doing it." Good grief. Very well. Yes, we're in agreement...

Well, not to insult your intelligence in any way, but I think you're not getting what I'm saying, really. In the Bible, to be dead, Grafted Branch, does not mean to be non-existent or lacking in consciousness... does not imply in any way lack of existence or consciousness... either in this life...
