    Jesus Chooses Us

    Again, you continue to try to assign the biblical doctrines I espouse as coming from some man. The Sovereign grace doctrines are from the Bible, and it is through my study of the Bible that I've come to embrace the Sovereign grace of God. I know that some Christians do not believe these...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    Greetings GracePeace, The tension between the two beliefs is not real, but manufactured. The gift of eternal life is the work of God alone, but He has also ordained that we (Christians) are His workmen, created in Christ for good works. So you see monergism and synergism work together that...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    Begin with post #1 and following! Christadelphian is only one of the labels directed against fellow Christians.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    I'm not the one claiming Satan is a fallen angel of God, once good and turned evil through disobedience, you are! The onus to prove what you allege is on you, not me. Exactly! The angels of God are ministering spirits. Devil and demonic spirits are not. Devils/demons/serpent/Satan are evil...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    Yes, he and anyone else who alleged I am Christadelphian, who denies the deity of Christ. Only God can save, and if Christ is not God, according to the doctrine of Christadelphians, then I am not saved.

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    According to some of you Satan was created an angel of God. Angels of God are not created with the ability to disobey God, they are all made to be ministering spirits sent to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation. Hebrews 1:14 (KJV) Are they not all ministering spirits, sent...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    Yes they did! The only thing they did not know is that He would be called by the name Jesus. Luke 2:21 (KJV) And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb. The Old...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    Do you understand what I mean when I say the Sovereignty of God? I am speaking of the doctrines espoused through the acronym T.U.L.I.P. 1. Total depravity 2. Unconditional election 3. Limited atonement 4. Irresistible grace 5. Perseverance of the saints

    Jesus Chooses Us

    I've learned over the years that the doctrines called T.U.L.I.P have been credited to John Calvin. I know what each letter of the acronym means, but I did not learn this studying the works of John Calvin. I learned the truths of the acronym through my study of Scripture. It has not been my...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    What you show is how biased and displayed an antagonistic attitude from the very first page. Here is the discussion from pg 1 to refresh your memory. TribulationSigns said: What the Scripture nowhere support is that the Devil is a supernatural being that was once a good angel in Heaven, but...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    My apologies GracePeace, I tried to keep the discussion about the doctrines of God's Sovereign Grace which is what I believe Monergism embraces. Sadly, keeping the discussion on the Word or God rather than on the doctrines of John Calvin becomes a challenge when some deny the Sovereignty of...

    Rapture ... soon?

    It is the spirit indwelt with the Holy Spirit from Christ that possesses eternal life, and able to freely choose not to sin. Our natural spirit giving physical life to our flesh is also in us, this is the part of man that is of the first Adam of flesh & blood desiring to serve sin that...

    Predestination VS Free Will

    This was to show Saul was among the prophets to serve a particular purpose. The Spirit of the Lord came and left King Saul first before he was anointed King, and also during his reign as King. This does not show the heart of King Saul was always for good, for he shows himself to have an evil...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    God is Trinity! He is known as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. While creation most assuredly proclaims the glory of the invisible God, who is Spirit, it does not give evidence of God the Man, called Jesus Christ a son of man, as well as Son of God. The jailer was told to "Believe on the Lord...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    Did you want to discuss the doctrines of John Calvin, or the doctrines of the Bible? I prefer the Bible, don't you? Good deeds are not worth much if you're doing them to receive reward. Whether or not our good deeds are blessed by God or not is based on that which proceeds from the heart...

    Predestination VS Free Will

    No, He didn't! We condemned ourselves when we listened to the serpent and doubted God. God creates the devil destroys! Yes, God says all souls are mine! But He also says the soul that sinneth shall die! In this we don't accept God's grace without also accepting His justice. The passage is...

    Predestination VS Free Will

    Just because man has been regenerated through the Holy Spirit in them, does not do away with the natural spirit in man giving them physical life. This is why the saints of God are warned to walk by the Spirit and not to fulfill the desires of the flesh. The spiritual battle children of God wage...

    Predestination VS Free Will

    What did God mean when He told the serpent there would be enmity between "thy seed" and "her seed", if there is no seed of the serpent? Genesis 3:15 (KJV) And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    This is true! Every man knows, through all of creation of the Creator God NATURALLY! But mankind in unbelief has no knowledge or understanding of the Savior, Jesus Christ our Lord. The knowledge of Christ unto salvation does not come NATURALLY but is SUPERNATURALLY given to whosoever hears...

    Jesus Chooses Us

    How will man who is spiritually DEAD in trespasses and sins freely choose to believe? Romans 3:10-18 (KJV) As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become...
