I did read the OP. It's about counting impenitently backslidden saints as "never having been saved".

No - the Unmerciful Servant went out fully forgiven, but was returned with that forgiveness withdrawn. David in the OT had the Spirit, for he prayed "take not Thy Holy Spirit from me" - so "the Spirit" in John 7 must refer to something other than what you're suggesting...and it does. It...

We can just as easily say God predestined all of humanity to be saved, but most choose to not follow that destiny.

It's a warning of the coming papal apostasy - not evidence of OSAS. Which verse says that? There is no verse that says God "selected" Judas to betray Jesus. Foreknowledge of what a person will do is not the same as the directing him to do it - like a news helicopter high above a long tunnel...

Angry nations, the Investigative Judgment (1844), increased knowledge (both eschatological as well as technological)...

That was fulfilled with the return of Nebuchadnezzer to his throne?

I think Matthew 24:12-13 KJV, 1 John 5:3 KJV, and Romans 8:7 KJV - and the lukewarm Laodiceans - leave us no other choice.

A warning that certain individuals would creep in and pretend to be Christian in order to hijack Christianity - which the papal Antichrist indeed accomplished - doesn't establish OSAS. Did not Judas - who belonged to God because he had His spirit (Romans 8:9 KJV) - wind up lost? And, why was...

What "two ages"? Isaiah says Babylon would be "overthrown" and mirror the fate of Sodom and Gomorrah which was never rebuilt and has remained desolate to this day. That came to pass all the way back in 6th century B.C. at the hands of MP. Any subsequent mention of "Babylon" refers to "spiritual...

The OP is spot on correct, and forms the basis for the prophetic timeline upon which the rise of the 6th century papal Antichrist took place. There is no room for any other interpretation, namely Jesuit "Way Behind" Preterism or Jesuit "Left Behind" Futurism.

"And this Gospel shall be preached into all the world...and then shall the end come." The Gospel is, as we speak, indeed going into "all the world". The truth is now going forth in all corners of the Earth, reaching people like never before via internet and satellite in communist bloc...

Preachers love telling people "find out what the will of God is for your life" leaving millions wondering, searching, asking "what's the will of God for me?" The answer's actually quite simple and found right there in your OP: Psalm 40:7-8 KJV [7] Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the...

(Cue reprogrammed T-800 voice): Now, listen to me very closely: In Matthew 24:12-13 KJV, the "many" in verse 12 who allow widespread iniquity to kill their "agape" cold and dead that Jesus contrasts with the man in verse 13 who "shall endure to the end" and "shall be saved"...are former saints...

Senator Ted Cruz clarified this years ago, but apparently not everyone got the memo: The operative words are "subject to the jurisdiction thereof". An anchor baby is not subject to U.S. jurisdiction - he's subject to the same jurisdiction of the foreign country from which his parents are subject.

The result is the same, but the paths to it are not - the one was never written in the book, and the other had his name blotted out the book. BTW, Matthew 24:12-13 KJV disproves OSAS when we compare it to 1 John 5:3 KJV ands Romans 8:7 KJV.

No, that would be eternal torment, which Satan uses to sew doubt in man concerning God's love. The only "proof" for eternal torment is a handful of verse that are either misinterpreted or misapplied. Exactly - the wicked die the "second death" which is eternal death, everlasting death...

I don't think God's choice to not remember an impenitent apostate was previously saved is the same thing as Him counting them as never saved. They were indeed saved - but refusing to remember they were once saved is more akin to "inadmissible evidence" than "no evidence whatsoever" in the Judgment.

The next verse tells us specifically what is is about the world and in the world from which we're to withhold our love - and it's not people. It's "lust". We're to hate our brother (Luke 14:26 KJV) but doing so makes us a murderer (1 John 3:15 KJV). A massive contradiction. Of course, you'll...

"No murderer hath eternal life abiding in him" - right? So, if no murderer hath eternal life, how can he have eternal suffering? The wicked "pass away" and "shall be as though they had not been" and "shall not be" and their place "shall not be". They won't be found anywhere because they will...

If you hate your brother, you're a murderer "and ye know that know murderer hath eternal life abiding in him".
