Exactly. It is clear the Jews chose to obey the gospel and repent in Acts 2:38 Acts 2:40 and with many other words he testified and exhorted them saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. A calvinist would have heard that and said, No you can do nothing.

It is irrelevant who caused sin in calvinism. Fact is if God ordained me to reprobation as calvinism teaches. Then God is responsible for my sinful nature. Do you think satan has power over God? God is the one who selects who are elected and who will be reprobates. Not the devil. Therefore God...

No, Not catholic, not luthren. I am only what God named His children to be. A christian only. You need to study the whole book of 1and 2Corinthians. You will learn that Paul did baptize the corinthians. He said he was glad he did not baptize anymore of them because they were perverting...

How do I get in contact with the Admins?

Listen Calvinist. If God does not grant faith, repentance to all. Then if I am not chosen of the elect, I am not responsible for my reprobate mind, sins. If God ordained me to reprobation, then God is responsible for my nature. I had no choice in the matter. Therefore God is responsible for my...

You have denied Christ, when you said Jesus did not say you must be baptized to be saved. Have you never read Jesus' gospel? Mark 16:15-16 And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach the GOSPEL to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not...

Hello phoneman777 ! I'm a new member!

Jesus taught to believe you must believe in Him, 1Corinthians 15:1-4. Jesus taught to have faith, you must believe in His word. Jesus taught that faith and baptism saves, Mark 16:15-16. Therefore if you do not believe what Jesus said, "he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved.... You are...

All Jews everywhere were baptized by John, Mark 1:4-5 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. Then ALL the land of Judea and those from Jerusalem went out to him, and were all baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their...

How were the Ephesians saved, quickened, born again? BY BELIEVING AND OBEYING THE GOSPEL. The Ephesians were not saved before faith. They were not saved the moment they believed. They were saved when they obeyed the whole gospel commandments of Jesus. Notice: the Ephesians also did not get the...

How? How did God quicken us? Through the gospel not by miraculous direct operation of the Holy Spirit, We are born agian by the gospel of Jesus Christ. 1Corinthians 4:15 For through you might have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have...

Calvinist always intentionally leave out verse 45 in John 6. It reads No one can come to the Me, unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day. Now Jesus teaches how the Father draws all of mankind, Verse 45 It is written in the prophets, AND THEY SHALL BE...

I'm glad you brought up Peter, 1Peter 3:20-21 Who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few that is, eight souls were saved through water. There is also an antitype which now saves us--- immersion...

Incorrect. Paul teaches we are saved by a working faith, Galatians 5:6. Ephesians 2:8-9 is teaching of the works man do to merit salvation. These works save no one but condemn. God saves us by His works. Therefore we are Biblically saved by works. Not the works of man, that do not come from God...

Yes faith is a gift from God just as every blessing on earth is a gift from God. Air to breath is a gift from God, Did we merit air to receive it? No. Do we have to wait on God to miraculous give each individual faith? No if so God would be a respecter of persons. Nowhere does the scriptures...

Since God does works in our salvation. Then it only follows logically that Works save us. Therefore the true gospel is saved by works. To say we are not saved by works is found nowhere in the gospel of Christ.

Correct, Faith itself can be only mental assent, James 2:24. Biblical saving faith, is never alone as Paul taught, Galatians 5:6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love. Saving faith that profits mans soul is a faith that...

Thanks. Are there no works involved in salvation?
