Of course, that is sad. But they are blinded by Satan, which is why they are perishing. V6 are God's children, the saved and explains why they are no longer blinded by Satan, v3 and v4 are the devils children, the unsaved. Satan blocks the light of the gospel from entering minds. Satan does...

God does not force, He does everything by His Spirit. Being born again is not forced, God changes your heart to be open to Him, he gives to you a new spirit, one that can be taught about Christ and know God. The unbelieving, their minds are blinded by Satan and do not come to the Light as their...

Faith is never alone though as God is the author of your faith People are born again of God, the regeneration and washing of the Holy Spirit, according to His mercy, not by righteous works, then they confess Christ as Lord and believe God raised Him from the dead. Born Again comes first before...

Actually you muddied up the water here, as apparently I was responding to the poster named GodsGrace not you... in post #1593 "GodsGrace said: ↑ Jim B, Scripture states that the very people that believe can be deceived: 1 Timothy 4:1 1Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will...

Obviously God doesn't will every single person to come to the knowledge of the truth in this life, or all would be saved. see if any of you can find in scripture about who gets to know who Christ is, know Him, and be saved. And if you do find that, why don't you believe it? Or do you believe...

Heretics who practice their heresy unrepentantly, and many do, are not saved. Heresy is a work of the flesh. See if you can find where that is true in scripture.

And what do you mean by that?

You are making a nonsensical point, I said the word is 'THE' not 'their', I was making my own counterpoint to your apparently unclear explanation. People don't lose salvation. Plenty falsely believe saved people do lose salvation by departing from the faith, and they also use that same verse to...

We are being conformed to the image of Christ by the Father. We are saved by grace through the means of faith gifted to us, it is a God thing. We are saved by the work of God and Christ done for us. John 5:16-18 New King James Version Honor the Father and the Son 16 For this reason the Jews...

Agree, and without faith and being saved, there will be no good works done. Good works Paul does teach on. Good works are a result of being an elect saved person, according to the will of God, they are prepared beforehand for us to walk in, some good works. Titus 1:16 They profess to know God...

You said, "Then America separating from England ( country and church ) in 1775, is part of that prediction of Jesus for the wars and rumors of wars to be the beginnings of sorrows. This is told why below, America to split from the church over them, was America resisting against the ordinances...

What your suggesting is they are departing from their faith, here I changed it from 'the' to 'their', to make it clearer. Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from their faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons Those who depart the...

God is perfecting your faith through trials 1 Peter 1 A Heavenly Inheritance 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an inheritance...

The works of God are those God cause to occur, God is not a machine program such as in If , then statements, although we might think that way in human terms as He sometime says. He is in control of all things, and works all things, so that what actually happens is what He determined to happen...

The wicked servant of the lord did nothing with what he had been entrusted with, out of fear of failure, of losing what his lord had given him to use to improve the kingdom of the Lord, not even giving it to another to see it grow. Out of the man's own words, he was condemned, by the lord. But...

Yes, I like it, 'your work of faith' reference. By faith we do good works. Ephesians 2 tells us we are saved by Grace, and also God has prepared beforehand good works for us to walk in. in an interesting sense regarding faith, as James says, James 2:20 But do you want to know, O foolish man...

Never taught those things? Well He spoke them. You are misappropriating scriptures to try to make some kind of contentious point in your own mind. Tell me what is the purpose of Parables that Jesus spoke?

Luke 12:12 does not say that. Hypocrisy is but one of the false doctrines of the Pharisees, they also denied He was Christ. They enjoyed many sins, and did not have good fruit. Of course for them it was impossible as they were of Satan. Satan also means adversary to Christ. They desired to...

Thing is we can post scriptures all day long back and forth but the word rightly divided is what matters, as Satan also quotes scriptures. 2 Timothy 2:15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. The shame will...

That is not their only doctrine, your being misleading by implying that.
