I got this one notified to me, thanks

God gets what He wants. He wants us to choose Him. God does not want to force us to submit to His will. Why is there a hell?

Strange I did not get a notification from your comment to me? Instead I stumbled upon it.

You have been taught the doctrine of the imputation of the personal righteousness of Christ to the christian. This is a heresy, If this doctrine be true then why does John tell us to confess our sins? This means the perfect obedience of Christ is transferred to our account then it would not...

Yes, the Bible does not define repentance of sin as perfectly sinless. Repentance is not a one time event. I ask God to forgive me of my sins daily because there are sins of ignorance and I need Gods forgiveness. It's a matter of the heart Mark. Do you desire to put sin behind you or do you...

That's totally unfair!!! What kind of reasoning is that? Also I don't believe half of the things you want me to prove, lol So you know more about my religious beliefs, I reject all of reformed theology that includes Orginal sin aka Inherited sin I'm the furthest thing from a calvinist that...

Yes, I wish those who oppose me so strongly would leave me be. . But if a person is accused of teaching error then the accused has a right to defend their beliefs. Just for clarity those who hold the belief that repentance has nothing to do with stopping sin, are the ones who get upset with my...

Well then you didn't learn anything from Jesus' parable and that's why you should leave my articles alone unless you think you can prove with Scripture, that I am misinterpreting Matthew 21:28-32

No you misunderstood me if that is what you believe I said. I said we all sin. I did not teach one sins when one repents. Jesus teaches us from the parable of the two sons that one stops their sinning in true repentance. As you admitted the publlicans and harlots stopped their sinning when...

I will answer your question. I forgot what it was and I can't seem to find it. Just let me know and I'll answer. Sorry

This question wasn't answered, was it? Hepzibah?

No, I thought you had learned from this parable Jesus taught that true repentance must include cessation of ones sins and doing works meet for repentance. I am sorry if you thought I was misrepresenting you. Mark, if you don't agree, let's not continue this discussion its fruitless isnt it?

I'm sorry, what was your question again?

Thanks. Now you know Biblical repentance is more than just changing the mind as you said. Jesus shows it must be a turning from sin to God and doing works meet for repentance. The publicans and prostitutes stopped committing their sins. That is their repentance toward God.

Oh I see. Well friend I cannot reason with holiness folks. They believe what they feel over what the Bible says. If we do not have a standard of authority to go by as the final say i.e. The Holy Bible. Then we cannot reason together or come to any understanding of what God means in His word to...

Miraculously taught you? Directly without the word(Bible)?

Now I'll go along as long as you answer my questions first. I will not give an answer to you when I've already asked a question. It is impolite to ask more questions of me when you have not answered mine.

Are you of the belief that repentance has nothing to do with stopping sin?

Ok, let's use your definition. But first why do you suppose so many English translations use the word repent instead of regret? Do you think these Greek Scholars are all wrong in our English bibles? Also where did you learn your interpretation of the parable of the two sons? What church...

Well I know when one is a sinner and they change, start obeying God by doing His commandments as the first son did that is a person who... A) has an in penitent heart? Or B) has an penitent heart?
