Here is what Richard stated in post #30... "I have never said that the Jews can not be saved by the gospel of grace. Today, under grace, everyone is saved in the same way; by placing their belief, faith, trust, and confidence in the shed blood on the cross to reconcile them to God." So once...

One thing for sure, we wouldn't be speculatin such questions :lol:

The Scripture does not seem to go in that direction. "though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad--in order that God's purpose of election might continue, not because of works but because of him who calls-- she was told, "The older will serve the younger." As it is...

Point?

"So Jesus suffered the punishment for my sins." When He hung on the cross, how many of your sins did He suffer for? How many did He bear? How many did He forgive? When you came to Christ you were crucified with Him and risen. The sin question has been dealt with at Calvary. TETELESTAI (It is...

Except in Hebrews that those objects on earth were only a pattern of that which was in heaven. So, yes, the ark they might rediscover here on earth is only a pattern of the one in Rev 11:19. They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things. For when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was...

The President is to be a leader and Gingrich has shown the best leaderlike qualities during this campaign.

What's wrong with these two? I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was...

I can't believe you get away with outrages statements as this. The apostle Paul proclaimed most clearly and in most detail the Gospel of the grace of God made available now to ALL mankind both Jew and Gentile, freely on account of the cost to His Son. NO ONE HAS STATED THAT PAUL IS OUR SAVIOR...

This is patently false but typical of those who blindly accuse the mid-Acts position. Their mantra is "The whole bible is for us but not the whole bible is to us." Jesus told his disciples to go and preach the gospel of the kingdom and to go only to the lost sheep of Israel.(Mt 10:6) Later when...

The principle of the lottery is chance. The principle of God's dealings is design. The two seem incongruous. Although when given to me as a gift or promotion, I go ahead and scratch them...that may seem dumb too.

Aspen, I guess part of my point is that for every 'find' there is an equal and opposite refutation thus casting doubt upon it's reliability. Yet Peter proclaims... We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place...

So the Church will be receiving all the blessings and curses laid upon Israel in the OT? How does that destroy the logic of dispensationalism? Today the Church (Body of Christ) is made up of both believing Jews and Gentiles..

Those who live under the True Cross see the work done first and foremmost and walk with the Lord from that vantage point. What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many...

Sounds like a creed to me. Kind of self defeating, don't you think?

Nicely put. Hopefully it is not seed thrown on rocky places.

This is all old stuff and it all fails. The Christian faith does not stand on debatable wood claiming to be relics of the ark or the cross for if it did it would be easily shaken by findings to the contrary. Paul summarized it best, Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I...

There is the other side of Jesus (The Son) than love as we see the wrath of the Lamb in Revelation. Both baby both, not either/or. To say the Father is basically one way and the Son another is an old heresy of Marcion.

God uses these and much more but I believe the most effective is that anguish of conscience (through the Holy Spirit) knowing we are offending a Holy and loving God...One who even died for those very sins...ouch.

For God so loved the world that He sent His Son. not For God so hated the world that He sent His Son.
