    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear Behold, You seem to have a problem understanding what you are reading. The verse says that NO MAN can call Jesus Lord but by having the Holy Spirit indwelling them. It also says that when a person has the Spirit, they can no longer call Him accursed (reject Him). Those are very...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear Behold, If what you say is true, then no can be saved because faith and belief in Christ happens only when a person has the Spirit. 1Cor 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... You said: To prove YOUR point, you'll have to post some verses that state what you believe: That God CHOSE EVERYONE from the foundation of the world. I find no such scripture and I don't believe you will either. No, God does not choose everyone to be saved...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear GodsGrace, You said: For instance...you say man has no free will but Jesus stated that WE WERE NOT WILLING.... John 5:40 39“You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me; 40and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you...

    How is the Woman saved through childbirth?

    Dear VictoryinJesus, You said: More questions: you seem to see New Jerusalem, and Gods seed, and what is born out of that communion …until Christ be formed in you. Is that birth of the bondwoman, or the freewoman? Same as the seed sown in the good ground, and bears fruit? What is the good ground...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear GodsGrace, Your reasoning concerning what these scriptures teach makes no logical sense. I will look at a few of your comments: Eph 1:11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own...

    How is the Woman saved through childbirth?

    Dear VictoryinJesus, I have been busy on another thread. My responses may be slower than normal. You said: That to me says He is the first born among many brothers. Are those brethren born from above? I have trouble with this scripture because I believe it is not properly translated. Here is...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear GodsGrace, The verses I posted all teach that God intervenes in the "will" and "decisions" of mankind. You can treat them as "one" since they teach the same truth. Most people will try to prove that mankind has a free will by showing scriptures that tell mankind to make a choice. But...

    The third way (Arminianism v Calvinism)

    Dear GodsGrace, Your understanding of those verses is processed through your the "works base belief system" that you have. Christ is the Savior and does all the works of saving a person. In this age, Christ is ONLY saving the people who have been chosen for an early salvation. The are the...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear God'sGrace, So presenting you scripture is not a reasonable reply? Like most apostate believers, your beliefs do not come from God's Word. They come from the reasonings of the carnal mind and from the teachings of the apostate church which came into this world near end of the 1st...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear Dan Clarkston, You don't understand the process of conversion that Christ will perform within mankind to save us. All mankind is condemned already because of sin. The penalty of sin is death (not eternal torment in literal fire as some believe). But because of God's grace, Christ will...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear marks, No, the scriptures that I just posted can be literally understood and they clearly say that Christ will save all mankind. You just don't have enough faith to believe them. Also, you don't understand conversion. Conversion requires the death of any person who sins and has become a...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear marks, Here is John 1:9 with a proper translation: John 1:9 The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. Christ is the light (truth) of the world and every man will see His truth - but only after Christ reveals Himself to them. For this to occur, Christ must...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear Behold, Scripture does not support what you stated. When an unbeliever is presented the Gospel, they are going to think it is foolishness unless Christ has given them the Holy Spirit beforehand. Also, if I cut and paste anything into my posts, they are only things that I have written...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear Behold, A person can only have faith (and trust) in Christ after Christ (from His own choosing) gives the person the Early Rain of the Spirit. 1Cor 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear Behold, But when is a person "born again"? The new birth only happens after Christ (by His own choosing) has given an Elect person both the Early and Latter Rains of the Spirit, followed by judgment. This is called "conversion" and is when the new birth occurs. After a person is...

    How can anyone fall for the errors of Calvinism ?

    Dear GodsGrace, Here are a few scriptures: Prov 16:1 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD. Prov 20:24 Man's goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way? Prov 21:1 The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers...

    How is the Woman saved through childbirth?

    Dear VictoryinJesus, You said: but still it begins with a verse, or verses, because it starts there and builds from there. Yes, truth is built "line upon line" and "precept upon precept". Truth's foundation is Christ and Him crucified, which is the milk of the word. After a believer is...

    How is the Woman saved through childbirth?

    Dear VictoryinJesus, Below is my comparison on Christ & the freewoman/Satan & the bondwoman. I will present it in a simple narrative way without much scripture so that it will be easier to understand. I'm confident that you know the scriptures from which my statements are founded upon. Here...

    How is the Woman saved through childbirth?

    Dear VictoryinJesus, I wanted to do a follow up post on the verse that I recently discovered. 1Cor 4:15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. You know that truth is taught "here a little...
