    Limited atonement !

    What I don't understand why some use words that even scripture does not use. What I have been saying very clearly, as an opposite to the false teaching of limited atonement, using Brightfame52's theology compared to what scripture actually teaches. The text used is I Cor 15:12-19, The words...

    Limited atonement !

    If you believe it only for the elect, then what I stated is NOT a misrepresentation of your theology. As per scripture, if all the dead are not raised, then Christ is not risen. Your theology does not require it either. If you think it does what scripture could you use to support that Christ...

    Real Faith vs Broken faith

    You may have adopted it from another false teacher, namely Calvin who is the originator of OSAS. Born again happens when one believes is baptised, and receives the Holy Spirit and enters into His Kingdom. That is a one time event, however it does not mean saved, it does not even guarantee one...

    Limited atonement !

    Not to be picky but..... Adam brought death to all men, not sin. Christ brought life to all men. Heb 2:2 or I Cor 15:21-22

    Limited atonement !

    I know, but He does not know that. He doesn't understand his own theories to be able to understand the ramifications vis-a-vie what scripture actually teaches.

    Limited atonement !

    There is a difference between being true to your personal theory, however as to scripture it is a false teaching.

    Limited atonement !

    I believe that, but Brightfame52 theology does not.

    Limited atonement !

    You keep saying this but have no evidence to support such a theory. You need to change words like 'All" to mean some or in some cases to "elect". Even "world" to mean "elect". Even dictionaries do not give such meaning to these words. A rhetorical question. Do you believe in a resurrection of...

    Real Faith vs Broken faith

    Which is your interpretation. It does not balance with the historical witness of the Holy Spirit through time in preserving His Gospel for all time. You are correct He saves us through our faith. But man must remain faithful. Your status with God does not become final until your death. I...

    Limited atonement !

    You develop a straw man then proceed to knock it down. Your question - "is it really true that Jesus gave His life to save absolutely everybody without exception? The Biblical answer is two fold. Yes and No. One must understand Christ performed two things from His Incarnation and resurrection...

    Real Faith vs Broken faith

    In checking the history of the Church from the Apostles to present day, I find no record of the view that a believer cannot lose their faith, and thus eternal life. The entire NT, covered in every single Book speaks about a believer remaining faithful. Belief is always in the present tense...

    Real Faith vs Broken faith

    You have not presented a logical, rational explanation of what you believe. All I got is you don't believe in baptism. You believe that once saved always saved. So, where is your view found in scripture?

    Limited atonement !

    So, you do have trouble with the English language. As you did before with other words, you use the same definition for every use of a word in every context. You do know that context determines use and meaning of words. In this case "things" means elect. Every time you interject your own...

    Real Faith vs Broken faith

    But where is your evidence on your view other than your personal spin? Is it your very own personal interpretation? Why are you posting about things you don't know anything about. Who says it is Satanic lie, You? None, I'm not actually interested specifically what Catholics believe unless you...

    Limited atonement !

    Why keep digging the hole you are in deeper. Maybe I should ask if English is your first language?

    Real Faith vs Broken faith

    So, instead of presenting your biblical evidence you resort to innuendo and false statements. this may be your belief, but it is not how the Gospel was preached and practiced from the very beginning. Scripture says otherwise. John 3:5, baptism is by water and the Spirit. Rom 6 is called...

    Limited atonement !

    Explain to me Col 1:20 who was left out from EVERYTHING WAS GIVEN TO CHRIST. Also, every human being will be called by God without exception. Rom 1:18-24. However, those that come to Him in faith, He will not cast out. Why would He, He desires that all men repent, believe. II Pet 3:9 But...

    Limited atonement !

    The more correct way of saying your statement would be... Christ died for mankind. The objective was to save the world from death and then to be able to have communion with man, gaining believers through faith and forgiveness of sin. As for the Calvinist, theologically, this is precisely...

    Real Faith vs Broken faith

    He became the sin of the world. Not one believer at a time. A believer becomes 'righteous" through belief, repentance and baptism. We share in His death and resurrection through baptism. Born again, means one was baptised, We do receive His righteousness each time we confess our sin...

    Real Faith vs Broken faith

    There is a lot to unpack here but I think you are using the phrase "made righteous" incorrectly. to be made righteous it to be made right, or acceptable, other synonyms that are used interchangeably are justify, reconcile. For example, scripture uses it to describe Christ Christ...
