    Around half of Kamala voters want to move and 10% most probably will go to blue states or other countries

    Just so they don't come here. We're having enough problems with the EU. Maybe a really big blue state could be formed so they could all go there and live together....along with all the illegals that came in - including the criminals and drug traffikers, and all the crazy woke people with their...

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Just saw this. No need to reply to my other post.

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Where does divorce come in? Divorce is mentioned in the OT and the NT. I know a couple that are not married in a church. He was never married....she had been married and divorced. They never got married in church. As you know, I live in Italy....the church did not recognize their union until...

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Rebuilder.... I didn't mean to split hairs. This is not an important topic for me. I was just trying to explain my understanding of the difference between a marriage and a wedding, which is a celebration. The marriage supper of the Lamb IS a celebration.

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Had a thought.... When God made A and E,,,HE was present and declared them "married". Giving the explanation that a man would leave his home and start a new home. Maybe a marriage is so that God can STILL be present when two persons want to become one flesh?

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    I've thought about this. A member on another forum was "married" to her husband with no marriage ceremony (but with a small wedding ceremoney lol - they did celebrate their oath to God). I think that in the times when populations were small this could have worked. But in big cities and large...

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Are you saying two could be married just between them and God? Some persons believe this.

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Isn't the situation the fact that the virgins were UNPREPARED? What does it mean to be prepared for God? Sometimes when a person is dying, he might be asked ARE YOU PREPARED TO MEET GOD. (and on other occasions also).

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Just running through....the above is interesting and I'd also like the opinion/knowledge of @Grailhunter . There's a difference between WEDDING and MARRIAGE. Marriage, as we understand it, is the act of getting married in a church setting with God as the Witness. It is a Covenant being created...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Just as I thought. You didn't properly read post 388. Why are you restating what I already explained? How about giving us YOUR explanation instead? In Romans 9...was Paul writing to his brethren or not? I gave scripture to show this to be true. Could you give scripture to show that it is NOT...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Sorry RJ It's not MY belief system. It's what the NT teaches, which is why I use scripture. If you don't care to believe what the NT teaches, that's fine by me. I'll leave with this: 1. MAN HAS FREE WILL. 2. MAN SINS EVEN AFTER BEING BORN AGAIN. READ JOHN 20:23 and 1 John 1 that might also be...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Actually Ronald...post 388 was to Scott Downy, so I don't really know what you mean. So you agree that Paul is speaking about Israel in Romans 9? So you agree that it's discussing corporate salvation and not individual salvation as Calvinists try to make the case? So we agree that Paul was...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Hmmm. Nothing on post 388. Nothing on what the aorist tense means. Waiting on verses showing that man has no free will. coffee:

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    YOU are the only one spewing here. Very unchristianly of you I must say. But Calvinists tend to be like this. I know this for a sure fact. Difficult to know why. Maybe because they feel so privileged? Yes. That's the ticket.

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    As you might have noticed.... I don't post opinion... I post verses. Apparently some on this thread (you) cannot counter those verses because they ARE TRUTH and truth is difficult to deny.

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    I think you understand very little of God's word. And I do believe I should leave this nonsense of a conversation with you. You've never sinned in all the years you've been saved. Yes. Once again denying the simple word of God. Read up on 1 John.... Good night.

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    My post took over 30 minutes to write. I could explain the aorist tense to you with 10 words, maybe less. So, you don't even know what it means....as most who claim to know really DO NOT. Still no reply to 388..... Regarding the 5 points...Let's take one. Irresistible Grace.... I is for...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    You should be sorry RJ. You can't even support what you believe. I showed you how man has free will. You can't even trust what you read.... that's how brainwashed you are.
