    Can anyone be pleasing to God?

    Says the Bible nowhere.

    Is it Okay for Christians to Pray to Mary?

    No, Paul said that, not me.

    Is it Okay for Christians to Pray to Mary?

    No I let him decide. He's the one saying he's the narrow gate and few will enter. And scripture says it's essential: "For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day...

    Calvinism vs. Arminianism

    Right, because you made up your own doctrine. "If" "then" statements do apply to salvation. that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, ( then) you will be saved; If we confess our sins, ( then) He is faithful and righteous...

    Calvinism vs. Arminianism

    Talk about missing the point! And there's no verses saying our freewill is ever lost or restored.

    Calvinism vs. Arminianism

    There are no deterministic verses... it's just the way you were taught to read them.

    Calvinism vs. Arminianism

    Before I was saved I knew what sin was. I was convicted of sin. Weren't you? I knew when I sinned it was against God and that I chose it. Not God. Not anyone but me. And I knew when I did right also. Man is made in God's image, we have a conscious. God convicts sinners, too, you know. They can...

    Calvinism vs. Arminianism

    The objector was obviously a rebellious Jew. Look at what he was objecting to. He was also wrong about not being able to resist God's will... And ironically he was doing just that.

    Is it Okay for Christians to Pray to Mary?

    Um ..all I did was quote the Bible. If that offends you, I don't know what to say.

    Is it Okay for Christians to Pray to Mary?

    Not if they don't believe Jesus is God. That's a basic, essential belief, according to Jesus. Now if God decides to let them in, that's up to him. But you might as well say all Buddhists are saved, because they try to follow a path of living well.

    Calvinism vs. Arminianism

    L Lol, you have that exactly backwards... For the first 300 years everyone confirmed free will, it wasn't till Augustine that it was questioned, except among Gnostic heretics. Tertullian (Quintus Septimius Florens Tertullianus) 160-225 AD: I find, then, that man was constituted free by God. He...

    Is it Okay for Christians to Pray to Mary?

    Of course it is. If we follow another gospel, as Paul says, we are condemned. Many people think they have Jesus, but they don't have the biblical Jesus. That's not saying we can't be in error at all, but certain doctrines are extremely important. Can I believe Jesus was just a good man? Is...

    He did, as I already showed you.

    Calvinism vs. Arminianism

    Nope, who is talking here?: 19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will? Not the reader. I'll give you a hint, it's the same person that's talking here: Someone might argue, “If my falsehood enhances God’s truthfulness and so increases his glory...

    Calvinism vs. Arminianism

    What part of this is hard to understand? And the Lord said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.” Determinism is nonsense according to scripture. God often makes "if" "then" statements to his people. IF My people, who are...

    Is it Okay for Christians to Pray to Mary?

    "I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to...

    Mike Pence Is Finally Calling Out The Fraud In The 2020 Election

    It depends what you mean by supporters... I know plenty of Trump haters... So they maybe voted against him instead of for Biden per say, but it amounts of the same thing.

    Is it Okay for Christians to Pray to Mary?

    These verses ain't about correcting bad doctrine. It's about Nit picking other Christians sins. If we never can come out and say "this is just plain wrong." We will fall into all kinds of errors and ultimately lose our faith by believing lies. I'm not saying who is or who isn't a believer...

    Mike Pence Is Finally Calling Out The Fraud In The 2020 Election

    Evidence? They put out a newsweek article bragging about how they got together and conspired to make sure Trump didn't get reelected.

    Mike Pence Is Finally Calling Out The Fraud In The 2020 Election

    This is kinda what I've thought all along. There was cheating, but it was still a close race and it's hard to say which way it would have went without the cheating. Mostly there was hiding of information on the internet about Biden that would have changed voters minds, that much has already been...
