    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    Jesus never preached the formular you preach for salvation. You have added endless requirements, which Christ warned would happen after His ascension to heaven. Jesus said "believe in me and you shall be saved", yet you insist on adding these endless false conditions to the simple gospel which...

    The social gospel?

    I would like to share this short summary outlining the core differences between the two gospels. The split came in the 1500's when the Reformers challenged the authority of the Pope of Rome, by claiming that the Bible should be the final authority over the Church instead of the Pope...

    The social gospel?

    You still don't get it, the truth is NOT A THING. The truth is God Himself. He is either ion you or He is not, you make it sound like some sort of treasure hunt, where only the wise guys find the truth and the ordinary folks are condemned to hell. Having the mind of Christ doesn't apply here...

    The social gospel?

    I have no idea why you quoted John 3:16 That verse is abused by all heretics and false prophets, they twist it's meaning to push a false Demonic gospel. You provided no interpretation or application for the verse, you simply cited it an a pitiful attempt to gain some fictitious higher ground to...

    Sure they did, but they weren't dead as you claim they were, you should make an effort to be consistent if you want to be taken seriously.

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    The only problem with that is, you can't go straight to the source in heaven because you're stuck down below on earth. So what you're claiming is false, since there's no way you can ascend to heaven to visit God. I would be interested to know, who deceived you into believing that such a thing...

    The social gospel?

    I agree, "no one can understand the truth", because the truth is the most mysterious person who ever lived. Jesus said "I am the truth", so we know Jesus is the Almighty Creator God. We also know that nobody can get into the mind of God, so He will remain mysterious forever. Most people think...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    What you preach is contrary to my statement, in that you believe lost sinners in hell will get a second chance to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior at some later time. If that were true, then God would be a liar. I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that my Church teaches "Grace plus...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    Dear Sir, I won't be able to respond to every point you made as there are just too many to deal with. But I saw a lot of red flags reading through the above two posts. The red flags represent unbiblical opinions. The most obvious one is your private unbiblical opinion regarding the "Early Rain...

    The only problem with that is, the dead are not weary, so they won't come

    The social gospel?

    It's easy to dismiss what others believe, while offering nothing to refute their beliefs. I have offered scriptures to support the theology I believe is biblically correct. All you have offered is your private opinion with no substance, anyone can be an armchair critic. As I mentioned earlier...

    The social gospel?

    Most Christians have a problem with Gods sovereignty, most are happy to allow God to have a measure of sovereignty but they refuse to accept the fact that He has full sovereignty over every single person and thing in the universe. They don't believe that His in full control over the affairs of...

    The social gospel?

    They both obviously do have some aspects of the truth, but the bible says "a little yeast effects the whole lump of bread dough". Likewise mixing the truth with lies spoils the whole message. Jacob Arminius and John Calvin had fundamentally different interpretation's of the gospel. Thy...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    I'm sure you're well aware that there are currently more than 40,000 Christian Denominations, and the number is set to grow much higher. All of these Denominations came about due to their departure from the Church which Christ established. Jesus has been building His Church for the past 2000 and...

    The social gospel?

    Every Christian believes in one of those two gospel interpretations, to suggest that there is a third doesn't make any sense. Since one claims we are saved by God alone and the other claims we are saved by a joint effort between God and man. I really can't see how these two opposing views can be...

    The social gospel?

    The Church has been divided over the two gospel interpretations for the past 500 years. The debate has been raging since the 16th century, and we are no closer to reaching a consensus today, then we were 500 years ago. It's a very difficult subject to debate, if the worlds greatest theologians...

    The social gospel?

    All of that sounds reasonable and logical, but we have many scriptures which describe mankind as being born dead in trespasses and sins. And other scriptures saying that we cannot chose to believe the gospel or have faith in Jesus, unless God gives us the gift of faith first. The Bible says that...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    Thank you for sharing your interpretation of what all those scriptures are saying. After carefully reading through all of them, I came to the sad realization that we're worlds apart with our radically opposed interpretations of every single verse you cited. There's nothing new or unusual about...

    The social gospel?

    Just a question regarding your last point, "because he had faith". Do you believe that faith was given to Abraham as a gift from God or do you believe he just had it within naturally. I ask this question because I think it's important to have the right understanding of why some have faith and...

    The social gospel?

    I don't see any issue with the Jews being, under a separate part of the same covenant. It could be said that the Jews would be more accountable to God because He gave them the Holy Scriptures and showed them favor than the Gentiles. But at the end of the day, every single person who was ever...
