    God's Hatred

    I used to think that the greatest enemies of Gods people, were Rock Stars, Hollywood Actors and those who practice Witchcraft and false religions like Islam. But I have since come to realize that the worst enemies of Gods people, are those in pulpits, who preach a false gospel. As you already...

    God's Hatred

    I heard a Pastor of Mega Church, say that the God of the old testament has calmed down and He is no longer angry. The Pastor was trying to say that God has changed or evolved, and He now accepts things that He didn't accept under the old law. He said we now enjoy Gods grace, and love because...

    The third way (Arminianism v Calvinism)

    There are around 120 verses of scripture confirming that everyone is born with a sin nature. You don't inherit your sin nature after you commit your first sin. You sin because you're a sinner by nature. God hated Esau while He was still in his mother womb, God didn't have to wait for Esau to be...

    The third way (Arminianism v Calvinism)

    I was debating the meaning of Romans 5:18 with @JBO who interprets the verse to say, that Christ died for everyone, including those He casts into hell. Rom 5:18 Therefore, as through one man's offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man's righteous act...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    General call, or "General Revelation is what God revealed to all mankind; Rom 1:20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, The above verse...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    Thanks for sharing your private opinion about Jacob Arminius, but it doesn't help me at all. You haven't shown me any errors with Calvinism, I know it's easy to say this is wrong but that's only your private opinion. I would appreciate it if you could actually point out any errors, before I...

    The third way (Arminianism v Calvinism)

    I don't think it's worth splitting hairs over who wrote it or the language it was originally written in. The interpretation of the text in the most thing. I'm not a bible scholar nor am I a theologian, but I am a keen student of the bible and I'm trying to lean as much as I can, so I can give...

    The third way (Arminianism v Calvinism)

    The verse doesn't need to state the obvious. The doctrine of original sin is taught throughout the entire bible. Because Adam’s nature was corrupted by the fall—as evidenced in his alienation to God. Gen 3:7 Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    Well said, I can tell you don't have any faith in the "man centered, works based" gospel, which is so popular today. I would estimate that over 90% of professing Christians reject Gods sovereignty in salvation. They hold to the "synergistic" gospel, which claims that salvation is not all of...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    It sounds like you're expecting a bit too much of yourself. I know it's a fine balancing act, between remaining faithful to God and pleasing people. There's nothing wrong with pleasing people if it brings glory to God, if we help a sick neighbor with their chores, they will be pleased with you...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    I grew up in the Roman Catholic Church, then when I was 19 a friend invited me to a Pentecostal Church service. After the Pastor preached his sermon, he invited anyone who is not sure that they are saved to slip up their hand while everyone's eyes were closed. I didn't raise my hand until the...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    Nobody knows what the initial stage of salvation is, salvation is a mysterious work of God. We can see the effects of salvation on an individuals life, but we don't know the order or the means, by which God saves His people. God is a mystery, and we will never know His ways as they are...

    God's Hatred

    Well said, thank you for shedding the light of scripture on this discussion, and thank you for exposing the main problem with the modern Church. Most Ministers are not willing to preach the whole counsel of God, for fear that it may offend those who are seeking to have their lives of sin...

    God's Hatred

    The main problem with your Arminian theology, is you are required to deny half of the bible. You're still trying to convince yourself that a dead person is not dead at all, but he's just pretending to be dead and he can actually manufactory faith within himself in his carnal/natural...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    You still haven't accepted what God said, so you dancing around it and trying to get around it because it doesn't fit your Arminian theology. But God said it so, your theology is wrong; Romans 3:10-11 As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one; There is none who understands; There...

    God's Hatred

    It's pure blasphemy to reject what God said, and invent a god who opposes the true God. You obviously don't know how o rightly divide the Word of God, so you impose your opinion over what God has said. So you have effectively created a god in your own mind and you idolize him. Your god loves...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    Nice try, but it doesn't work. Salvation and justification are two different words. But, thanks for giving it your best shot :Thumbsup:

    God's Hatred

    To blend unrelated verses such as, Luke 14:26 & Matt 10:37 and force them to agree with your Arminian religion, is to abuse Gods Word. Your Arminian theology prevents you from receiving Gods Word as it was given by Him, so you need to twist it to make it fit your prideful man centered Arminian...

    IS THE REFORMED FAITH BIBLICAL?

    I don't know who wrote this about Jacob Arminius, but it's not a true representation of what he believed. The Church was divided in the 1500's when the Reformers exposed the apostate Roman Catholic Church...

    The third way (Arminianism v Calvinism)

    I'm surprised you've never read; Romans 5:12 12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned The Bible doctrine of "Limited Atonement" is confirmed by many biblical texts such as Mark chapter 10, verse...
