What do you mean by 'God's Word'? Interesting conclusion In what way does it make our God a liar? Is God not allowed to give gifts, talents, abilities, functions, roles to His Son's body throughout its life that's now 2000 years old? So are we left to grow, advance, defend, provide on our...

T So is that the bible which contains 73 books? Or the bible which had 8 books added to it. Or is it the bible which had 7 books removed? When did the Shepherd tell you this? What was the actual warning He gave you? which bible? Why would you rebuke us for receiving what God freely gives us...

So God has no involvement in this part of the process? He sets a trap as it were and waits for people to take the bait. Once they do, then He begins the work of regenerating their heart by His Spirit. Ok absolutely So His desire and purpose aren't the same? They are in conflict with...

Have you got access to EVERY word that proceeds from God's mouth? What does that entail? Has anyone always been with God to hear every word He has spoken? Not even Jesus has, as He left the Father's side to come to earth for 30 plus years. Gabriel may have heard a lot, but he wouldn't have...

I would say that God wishes, desires, plans then reveals parts of this to whomever He wants. Most would be hidden in Him to this day and never expressed, let alone documented. So if you are refering to 'His Word' as the bible, which I'm thinking you aren't, then it would be the other way...

So if a person hears about God's mercy and His grace, goes to God and accepts His mercy and His grace in His Son Jesus then God will not cast him out but will give them His grace? So God has chosen some, making His mercy and grace irresistible exclusively to them only. And to many God has...

So Jesus wasn't interested in choosing everyone? Nor was He interested in ordaining everyone? Jesus didn't want everyone to go forth and bear fruit? And Jesus didn't want everyone to ask of the Father in His name, that he may give it them?

How can you be so confident that every single person God elects will be drawn to God (God's grace)?

Does this mean God will make believers believe? Are you saying that God will draw people to believe in Jesus by making His grace so attractive that they can't but accept it, making it irresistible?

The people of Jesus Christ's day probably said the same to Him when He told stories about famies, employers, employees, armies etc. Remember the recorded story of the family business that produced grapes. Where the Father sent workers to do a job, then he sent his son etc. What about the...

'it won't affect my salvation' I've heard this statement numerous times. What do YOU mean when you use it?

Yes, the elect are blessed in this life in this physical body and in the eternal state when Father comes to this renewed earth with His new City. Yes, after this, who knows exactly when, but all those not previously elected will repent and the blood of Christ will wash away their sin. They...

Someone starts a family business. They give the responsibility and instructions on how to be the office administrator to their eldest child who is 20 year old. And they fulfilled this role well. 10 years later this child moves on from the business and the Father gives the next oldest child this...

How do YOU know when a revelation that someone claims as being from the Spirit of Truth which has no origin in the scriptures or the bible actually is from God?

Some of those I've shared it with say some of the revelations I've received from the Spirit can be aligned with scripture. Some is just not there in that it goes beyond the volume and scope of the scriptures.

I Isn't this awesome! Sons and daughters, male and female, young and old receiving revelation from God via His Spirit. I'm glad He is continuing to feed His Son's body, bride, branches, sheep, church.

Personally I am not alarmed that there's an elect that are saved. Equally, I'm not alarmed that they aren't the only ones saved.

Thanks. Please lead on. I was purely making some simple suggestions sort of in line with the topic of this thread, Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed.

Thanks for setting it up and giving others the opportunity to, as you say, speak your mind.

If you say so, then I'm not an apostle. For the record, I have never claimed to be an apostle. But I know I am, as Jesus communicated, one of His sheep who hears His voice. And wouldn't want it any other way. I love my Leader, my Redeemer, my Great Shepherd and I follow His Spirit Who leads me...
