Polemics were hot and heavy in those days and Luther would have been booted off just about every Christian Forum on the internet with our politically correct culture. I applaud both Luther and Zwingli for sticking to their convictions and perhaps they should have left the issue of the Lord's...

Just a bit of correction on that 1John passage. Nice reminder, thanks.

Back in the 70's they said we had about 20 years left of oil. So here we fret.

A breath away, From Life... to death, A sigh and then a bye, no fragility could have handled it carefully enough, But a rope was given ...one hand clenched another embraced, One too short the other everlasting. While the train whistle faded eternity etched it's infinite imprint.

Maybe it could pass as a 'Pagan fairytale', that way it could have an even wider audience and achieve what it started out to do $$$$.

It says that they along with the rest of mankind have sinned and apart from Jesus Christ will end up in hell. If I was unknowingly heading for a washed out bridge, I would want my 'neighbor' to warn me rather than to feed and clothe me and bid me God speed as I would shortly go over the...

I'd question the part about 'in' and 'on' because most times Scripture says 'believe in'. Perhaps the distinction you are making isbetween 'believing about' someone and 'believing in' (trusting) someone?

So if you never ended up believing, you would still be saved, even though you knew for certain?

Did you believe the same time he saved you?

Then there are false teachers (wolves) strutting around in sheep's clothing. Once again, Paul in his letter to many Churches called them 'saints' irrespective of their growth or attainment in spirituality. He did not set up a class of saints and aint's. We, as true believers, are saint's.

Yes, sanctification follows justification AND is a life long process culminating when we are with our Lord.

I think the Paint never dries nor the debate so long as sanctification gets mixed in with justification. They must be kept separate. Lloyd Jones was speaking of our justification in the context of Romans 3...a totally free Gift.

"A very good way of testing any view that you may hold is this one: Is this view humbling to me, glorifying to God? If it is, it is probably right. You won’t go far wrong if whatever view you are holding is glorifying to God, humbling to man. But if your view seems to glorify you and to query...

Grace isn't an infused power or object but rather the manner God deals favorably with those who are His.

Eventually we must come to that point where, though all our world crumbles in on us... Job 13:15a (KJV) Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: Romans 8:38-39 (NASB) For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come...

Yes, yes, of course, but I was simply adding a couple of reasons why Paul is attacked, not trying to describe our sanctified walk in Christ.

Yes, we are seeing it in the 21st century... This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false...

He is also hated because he strips the self righteous of any hope of righteousness through law keeping. Romans 3:21-22 (NASB) But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God through faith in...

Referencing the Bible should go hand in hand with your previous comment... Christians should never have to apologize for challenging another for proof from the Bible

Can't they at least go back to calling 'it' Global Warming? At least that gave some indication of a supposed problem. Bur Climate Change? That tells me zip.
