    Eternal Security

    That is true. OSAS is not true as we see Christ explain for us at the end of Matthew 18. And as Paul states it in Romans 11

    Eternal Security

    It is not the "will of God" that any should sin. The "will" of God in terms of sin is that He "wills free will" -- "He is not WILLING that any should perish" 2 Peter 3 - but many do perish because God "wills" -- free will. Thus in John 1:11 "He came to His OWN and His OWN received Him not"...

    God the Holy Spirit - third person of the Godhead

    Which is not "proof" of anything. My argument was about your claim for proof or support of your position. BTW - is it your claim that no creedal statements mention "Bible" or "Church" or weekly attendance at church or ...?

    WHERE ARE ALL THE PROTESTANT PEDOPHILES?

    And there's the rub. A massive world-wide institution .. devoted to celibacy and having a "long reach" into every society and every legal system, into every political context .. and a fantastic ability to operate in secret, having its church headquarters with "diplomatic immunity" such that...

    The Catholic Church and sola scriptura

    On the contrary - "IF WE APOSTLES or an ANGEL from heaven should come to you with a different doctrine -- let him be ACCURSED" Gal 1:6-9 Even in the IDEAL case of a TRUE church and a TRUE Apostle as we have in Acts 17:11 --- STILL in that case it is "sola scriptura" testing of the doctrine...

    The Catholic Church and sola scriptura

    1. Defining Terms: Sola Scriptura means "All tradition and doctrine to be tested by the Bible to see IF it is in line with scripture or if scripture shows it to be error, or fluff, or true". 2. A question: I notice that while many Christians affirm this principle of "sola scriptura" Catholics...

    Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit

    1. To grieve the Holy Spirit is to live in rebellion against the Commandments of God. Isaiah 63:10 But they rebelled And grieved His Holy Spirit; Therefore He turned Himself to become their enemy, He fought against them 1 John 3:4 "Sin IS transgression of the LAW" 2. But "blasphemy" against...

    Why "LAW" =/= "OLD COVENANT"

    Why would God abolish his own Commandments? Why would God abolish his own creation-memorial Sabbath when He Himself states it will continue on for all eternity after the cross "from Sabbath to Sabbath shall all mankind come before Me to worship" Isaiah 66:23 My argument is not that God wants...

    God the Holy Spirit - third person of the Godhead

    As we all know the Bible defines Deut 6:4 ONE GOD Matthew 28:19 - in THREE PERSONS This thread is about the Bible support for the personhood and Deity of the Holy Spirit. John 16 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter...

    God the Holy Spirit - third person of the Godhead

    Yep - God is infinite. So our job is to believe His Word. Not debate against it.

    God the Holy Spirit - third person of the Godhead

    Me too "The Holy Spirit SAID" Hebrews 3 "It seemed good TO THE HOLY SPIRIT and to us" Acts 15 "HE will guide you into ALL truth" John 16 He is "ANOTHER comforter/counselor/teacher" in addition to Christ -- John 14 "In the NAME of " the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit - Matthew 28:19 HE...

    God the Holy Spirit - third person of the Godhead

    Every truth in the Bible will have some opposition. "One God" Deut 6:4 "God is one" In "Three Persons" Matthew 28:19 - 'the NAME of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit" God says "I alone am God - I know of no other" Isaiah 45:5

    God the Holy Spirit - third person of the Godhead

    The answer to every post cannot possibly be a bit of creative writing and some random texts. At least if the intent is to have a compelling statement from it.

    God the Holy Spirit - third person of the Godhead

    Acts 17:11 "they studied the SCRIPTURES daily to SEE IF those things spoken to them by the Apostle Paul - were SO" Proving that even non-Christians can easily master the practice of "sola scriptura" testing of all doctrine and practice "To see IF those things are so" I find your logic...
