    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Well once a person is saved they have free will restored! Only believers have the ability to choose or not choose to do the things of God! but that is a different subject. I am talking strictly about unsaved people. The cannot choose God as is written! God saing us, making us a new Creature...

    And yet you have not offerred one bible verse for any of the five points. YOu seem content in just attacking believers who know they are biblical!

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Well sometimes I do and sometimes I don't capitalize words like God. I am arthritic and if I don't see underlined words for spell check, I usually simply click enter. It is no dissrepect to my King, and He knows that!

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Once again I cannot speak for Calvinism for I am not a Calvinist. But if you look "might be" is not in any manuscript. It is an English add on, that is unfortunate for the verb is simply" saved". It is in the Aorist Passive infinitive, So a much better rendering in todays English would be...

    I never said it was true of a believer. but all unbelievers are dead in their trespasses and sins. Only believers are alive spiritually.

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    "Being jujstified by faith we have peace with god through our Lord Jesus Christ" the opposite of peace here is conflict or war! so though it is not a literal quote the opposite is just as true as the verse. And then there is JOhn 3:36 that says those not believing- the wrath of god is already...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    YOu are beginning to go down the road that others are going down here- being guilty of presumptuous sin. I am not a Calvinist. I believe the five points we call the five points of Calvin are the biblical truth because they are! but I am far from being a refomed believer. As for 1 Cor. 2 I do...

    Why do Catholics…

    Well I will not argue that point. But we cannot earn grace and mercy, they can only be freely given. They are both free! romanism wants you to have to earn it but that is a lie.

    Timing of Eze 37 and 38 pre Trib?

    Well I know Jesus is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the World and that all men are saved because of His blood! But every time the word covenant appears it is not referring to either the Adamic, Edenic, Abrahamic, Noahic, Davidic, Palestinian or New covenant! And the covenant in Daniel 9...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    This foolish comment shows your ignorance. First off my pastor is not Calvinist. Nor am I! I am an independent Baptist. Nor do I hold to reformed theology or reformed eschatology. And I will take the godliness in his little toe over your arrogant self righteousness everyday! I just know that...

    Ukraine’s army has been defeated; all that is left is mop-up

    And you know Zelinsky would use tactical nukes how??? Or are you just spitballing! Only Russia has talked about using tactical nukes. And your use of we in talking of the Russians is very telling! But iof Zelinsky did have tactical nukes, He would use them in the same way Putin said he would...

    Timing of Eze 37 and 38 pre Trib?

    Well in these generations, but the 70th wek of Daniel or the tribulation as is called by many, one of the two purposes is to purge out of Israel the rebel and unbeliever. Ezekiel 20:33-38 King James Version 33 As I live, saith the Lord God, surely with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out...

    mercy also isn't earned- it is freely given by God to those whom He chooses.

    Ukraine’s army has been defeated; all that is left is mop-up

    Yes if this drags out into a war of attrition, Russia will easily win. After all it is not their own country they are bombing to rubble! Also Putin can kill lots more soldiers of his own army than Zelinsky can, and He can destroy far more equipment than Zelinsky has. but iot will be a pyrrhic...

    Ukraine’s army has been defeated; all that is left is mop-up

    Oh you mean after the rebels in the Donbas got training from Russia and advanced weaponry from Russia and then starting shelling the rest of eastern Ukraine outside of the Donbas! Shame on the Ukraine for fighting back! or was it after Putin sent in Spetnaz troops to fight alongside the rebels...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Well you have loved to squeal about believing in teh biblical points Calvin brought out one has to give up logic and sanity. I just showed how God does not fit the model of what human logic and sanity says is right or possible. Calvins 5 points are biblical!

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    But election, and predestination have nothing to do with our obedience once we are saved. It has to do with whom God chose before teh world began. Paul made that clear in rom,ans 9- It is th ePotter who0 has the power over the lump of clay- the clay has no power whatsoever. then He also...

    Well if you stop making pre-pubescent remarks, I won't answer you according to your folly! YOu love trying to put words in my mouth and I will call you out every time you do!

    Well for all teh labels we have to describe us (Reformed, dispensational, Covenantal, pre trib etc.etc.) I simply say I am a mongrel, because I don't fully fit ini any of the labels. I seek to study and then compare with Scripture.

    Because grace cannot be earned!
