If some people are just naturally the good ground with a good heart, that would make God a liar It is not in man's power to make his own heart good. Genesis 8:21 And the Lord smelled a soothing aroma. Then the Lord said in His heart, “I will never again curse the ground for man’s sake, although...

Matthew 13 regarding the seed on the good ground, v23 is the only one that bore good fruit. We must bear good fruit or we will be cut down and thrown into the fire. That good ground was the heart God had prepared. He does this by making a man born again so as to believe the gospel message when...

Again John 5 tells us these same things, those not born of God, will not have God's word abiding in them, and they will not believe. Those not born of God will not have the love of God inside themselves. And they will not believe the scriptures either. John 5 The Fourfold Witness 31 “If I bear...

Again John 8 tells us the truth about those who are of God, as in born again and those who are not of God as in not born of God. One has God as their Father God (born of Him), the other the devil is their father. Each one desires to do the will of their father Keep fighting the truth and God...

Philippians 1 27 Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel, 28 and not in any way terrified by your...

Has to do with the natural carnally minded man which while it may be intrigued by Christ will not believe in Him. Romans 8 shows this 5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit...

We are saved by the great love and mercy of God towards us, not by anything we did or are. We are not even saved by our own wills; we are saved by God's will for us. For example Ephesians 2 And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, 2 in which you once walked according to the...

We can always pray for the unsaved, that God will show them mercy and save them Like Paul says here, and we are to do good to all men, especially those who believe. Romans 10 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for [a]Israel is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness that...

Jesus does not pray for unbelievers, or the world. This means there is no intercessions for them with God. John 17 6 “I have [c]manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word. 7 Now they have known...

Ultimately the Divine choice has been made that is true. You cannot forget the process though as we do receive Christ and believe even though this is granted us as the Father teaches all those He gives to Christ. My POV is God sovereignly makes us born again, then teaches us and we come to...

Anyone who cares to read it.

The Apostles’ Creed I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to...

Peter in Acts tells us Christ was in Hades And Christ was raised on the Third Day, not the first day. Peter says Christ's souls was not left in Hades, means God took Christ's soul from Hades when God resurrected Christ. So Christ was in hades a couple of days after He died. This is even in the...

Only in the New Covenant with Christ do we go to be with Him. Abraham's bosom existed for the OT saints, as I said before Christ came. And you tell me where does it say Christ at His death His Spirit went to heaven to be with God? I mean specifically says that.

Personally, I believe Adam and Eve at their deaths, God admitted back into Eden, which afterwards is known as Paradise. It was the place where all those God would save before Christ went at death, (their spirits) There is a spiritual body of some kind. The only other option is they ceased to...

Paradise of God was originally EDEN. Notice the wording Revelation 2:7 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.” ’ Genesis 2:9 And out of the ground the...

Not saying it does give them a second Chance. However, Christ did go there. I view it more of a proclamation of Himself, that He has fully triumphed. I am not reading anything more into the text than what it says, you are adding in the idea of a second chance which I never said.

I agree it is empty now, but the scripture says His soul would not be left in Hades AND Paul says this Ephesians 4 7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. 8 Therefore He says: “When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to...
