Then, I guess we have a little conflict, don't we? Titus 2:11 11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to ALL MEN. No fair, changing "all men" to "elect".

Obama to visit Church of Nativity, Iron Dome to be moved to airport for photo-op

Amen Stefen, money is only a matter when "clergy" are trying to get unsaved people to empty their wallets. Other than that, those who are abiding in Christ, love to give as the Lord asks of them. Hey, that's one of my "fear preaching" statements! Found here. His "Eminence" does not know what...

Well, those are your words so I will let them stand. 65 A.D.(ca) Peter writes from "Babylon" on the Euphrates river - as indicated by the statement: "She that is in Babylon saluteth you." (I Peter 5:13). 1. There was a strong Jewish colony in Babylon at that time and Peter "had been entrusted...

Maybe we're not connecting because of technicalities. It would probably be easier face to face, but alas, we only have text. Thank you for hanging in there with me, I don't think you can explain it any other way than the way you have tried and I certainly am having difficulty getting my point...

Thank you for that correction. Do we have more?

Why did the coroner not do an autopsy on the two most important people in this whole shooting the first day? Why did he wait 3 days? If Adam and his mother were killed the day before the coroner would have been able to spot that but no, he set them aside for 3 days. That coroner was so...

It is interesting that all the Catholics who have frequented this site (I count 6), all have a testimony of previously being a non-Catholic Christian (as if that is suppose to mean anything to us). Have you noticed that they all come as apologists. Almost like a big tag-team. But, to be fair to...

Good point, dragonfly. Many things have advanced, but not the human heart. It still sins, fights and kills and finds ways not to have to turn to the Lord. Other than that, technology has advanced, medicine has advanced, but the human heart only advances when Jesus is brought into the...

I thank God for His marvelous gift. 2Co_9:15 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift. Andyy, you are so right. We are big zeros.

The new reality Jesus proclaimed was HIMSELF. Jesus came to set men free from sin, not Rome. God does not change. He has no new reality or new corollary. He still uses Satan as His servant to do violent things. God ordered the killing of men, women and children in the OT. He is still...

Well, since we now have gay marriages and gay parents I guess the next poll will be, "If your child told you he was straight, would he be dead to you?" What gay parent would not want their child to grow up gay like them and enjoy the same fulfillment and happiness that they have found?

But, according to lesjude, God only loves some while they are sinners. (If they are the Elect). The other blaspheming, vulgar, perverted sinners don't qualify not because their sin is the same as the Elect sinners, but because they were created primarily to be destroyed. That is what I am...

Hammer, you've got a very user friendly site. I don't know another one that is as user friendly as this one. It demonstrates a lot of work that has gone into it. What software do you use? Is it vBulletin or is it "Community Forum Software"? That's what it says in the lower right hand column, by...

So, that makes it even more unusual that God would rejoice when a predetermined saved soul doesn't choose by his will to be repent and believe the Gospel. God is rejoicing over someone who did not use his will to choose to follow Him. I think I get it. It's easy now. Only the elect will be...

Sure, Satan is behind all sin, but that does not absolve man of their choices. I would say Hitler, Pol Pot, Mao Tse Tung and a host of others were "bad guys", wouldn't you? God could have killed Cain. He didn't use man to start a flood. That was God himself killing the majority of humanity. I...

A theocracy like Saudi Arabia has does not employ mercy. At least you can find mercy in the American judicial system. Some people argue there is too much mercy, and some argue not enough, but those questions are for another thread. We are certainly not a theocracy. It is true that the...

And he used to go shooting with her, too. (so we are told). In fact, how do we learn everything and from whom do we learn it? Who has been in control of this whole story that is being fed to the public? I don't know if it was staged or not, but we have not had one of these since then. I thought...

No eternal Son? John 17:5 KJV And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. Jesus had glory WITH the Father NOT AS the Father. Heb_10:12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the...

That was all very nicely laid out Scott. I especially like your statements above. Salvation is a process that "makes one safe" from the diabolical workings of flesh, sin and Satan. Salvation, like you said is not "a position" apart from what is going on in the heart. The Pharisees indeed...
