No, it needs to be explained to certain people that disagreement and persecution are not one and the same. There are varying degrees anti-Catholicism, I am talking about the extreme end of the spectrum. I have drawn a parallel with certain brainwashed "Bible Christians" with the pro-abort...

MATT SLICK AND THE "WORKS" DECEPTION Rom. 3:20,28; Gal. 2:16 – Paul’s phrase for “works of the law” in the Greek is “ergon nomou” which means the Mosaic law or Torah and refers to the teachings (legal, moral) and works (ceremonial)...The Greek word for works of the law "ergon nomou” . James in...

But you have. In your system, God has a separate love for His family in heaven, and a separate love for His family on earth. The reformulators built a kind of "Berlin Wall" between heaven and earth, turning the family of God into departments. Eph. 1:5 – Paul teaches that God “predestined” us in...

We don't separate works from the grace of Christ. You create a straw man fallacy. The catechism does not say we are saved by our own efforts, your accusation is false. Salvation by works apart from the grace of Christ is called Pelagianism, a heresy condemned by the CC 1000 years before the...

hey axe,

Because you refuse to understand what baptism is. Those verses do not exclude water baptism, and baptism at the time of Ezekiel was underdeveloped. That is a typical Calvinist tactic: if A is true, then B must be false. It's called a false dichotomy. Please, name one church or group that...

Ac28 most likely uses the same resources as Philistine Man, and neither will tell us where their resources are from. I would guess it's Jackkk Chickkk, or Alberto Rivera, or Dave Hunt or a legion of other bigots. It's this kind of hate speech that results in threads being locked. It's...

I get it. You are anti-Protestant, anti-Catholic, Christian Taliban.

So when we turn to 1 Peter 1:23-25, we can see that "water" is in fact a metaphor for the Gospel (also called the Word of God). Jesus was baptized in the metaphorical Jordan River? Interesting... Acts 9:18 – Paul, even though he was directly chosen by Christ and immediately converted to...

Acts 9:18 – Paul, even though he was directly chosen by Christ and immediately converted to Christianity, still had to be baptized to be forgiven his sin. This is a powerful text which demonstrates the salvific efficacy of water baptism, even for those who decide to give their lives to Christ...

It should be noted that Bible chapters did not exist in any Bible in the world until 1227, and verse numbers were added sometime later. Rev. 11:19 and Rev. 12:1 needs to be viewed as a single verse, which is not easy for us being so accustomed to verse divisions.

Some Calvinists are cult like, such as Matt Slick, but not all Calvinists are cultish. Calvinism is a heresy, but Calvinists are not heretics. There is lots of material on Matt Slick here, but the thread is locked. MATT SLICK EXPOSED

2 Timothy 2:15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. "word of truth" does not mean the written word alone. "Word of God" appears in scripture roughly 180-200 times, depending on the...

Jesus rose early Sunday morning, which is not the Sabbath. I didn't quote you or anybody else. Denying Hebrew idioms results in 3-24 hour days, which is absurd.

There are 3 kinds of baptism: 1) water 2) desire (thief on the cross) 3) blood. Martyrs, who didn't get a chance to be baptized with water, receive the baptism of blood when they are killed.

Water doesn't mean a metaphor for "gospel" or "Word of God". If it did, Jesus would have said so. Water means physical water. Spiritualizing everything in sight is leaning too heavily towards the Manichean heresy, where all earthly things are evil, and good only exists in heaven. If water is a...

Jesus was crucified on Friday, not Thursday. We know that Jesus was crucified on a Friday because Scripture tells us that the Sabbath (Saturday) was approaching (e.g., Mt 27:62, Mk 15:42, Lk 23:54, Jn 19:31 – the “day of preparation” is Friday, the day before the Sabbath: Saturday, and the...

Why do a majority of "indwelt" Protestants reject OSAS? Does having the Holy Spirit make you infallible? Why are Pentecostal Protestants, all having the Holy Spirit, divided into 200 denominations in a few short years since they began? My arguments are on track. You just disagree with Paul. And...

Links to the CARM forum are posted whenever it is quoted. If I am not quoting Slick directly, I am not obligated to link to every page for every concept that Slick publishes, but I do quote my sources to anything that is not mine. If I fail to quote Slick, then you go to the CARM forum where...
