Predestination Fact: Only occurs 5 times in the Bible. It means to mark out beforehand, to for-ordain that something will happen. Erroneously used say that God, by an eternal decree, has resolved (predestined) from all eternity to save a portion of mankind and to damn all others apart from...

Joe always does better when he is with other crazy unhinged Liberals. No one is going to ask him a tough question.

Why is it that those who use ad hominem instead of Scripture assume that when I write about a problem in the Church that John sent an Epistle to... they take it personally? Was he writing about you?

Absolutely! But that does not change the wages of sin, does it! “But now, being made free from sin, and become servants of God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.” (Rom. 6:22). “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord.” (Heb...

The wages of sin is death...

It's exactly what people are saying! It is not that they are grasping onto the promises, believing them, and accepting that it is true! Their first reaction is to argue against the facts and to justify sin.

Once again by ignoring the Gnostic problem and mixed church that John writes to, you can only come up with a wrong conclusion of only one possibility. In this passage we are left with several possibilities: 1. These Gnostic in this Christian assembly were never truly converted, and the...

I am not the one that has made up the strawman! When I ask details on "who" teaches this invented "sinless perfection" that everyone seems to argue against, yet they cannot name a single person or movement that has taught it! Such a doctrine that is the whipping boy, does not even exist! It is...

Again, are you saying that God is impotent to do what He claims, demands, and says that He will do? "For whom ye yield yourselves, servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey." (Rom. 6:16) "If we are compelled, therefore, to yield ourselves servants to sin, and be subject to Satan's...

So, did someone admitting that they were not perfect prove God to be a liar?

I agree, it seems very odd and self-contradictory to suggest that God forces His will on people's minds, but at the same time He has no power to complete His stated will in a Believer's life. Jesus said, "Be ye perfect... as your heavenly Father is perfect." God's will is our...

One does not have to look hard to see that the Bible is full of warnings and exhortations: Exhortations to not sin, to pursue holiness, to BE holy, sanctified and perfect. There are warnings everywhere to abide, continue and remain in Christ. If it were not possible for a Christian to ever do...

Making up your own supporting evidence is the modus operandi of someone committed to a predetermined philosophy they mentally to justify. It is pure circular reasoning that extrabiblical does not need the Scriptures for its justification.

Here we go again, inventing things that are not in the Bible like "payment for sins," and saying that it is Scripture! "I don't care what the Bible has to say; it's proven doctrine!"

Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled

The devil didn't make it either... and this is how you approach Scripture? Looking for loopholes?

They can state it any way they wish; it does not make it Biblical or true. In that case it is an example of why it is unreasonable, because it suggests that a payment made must result in the release from future punishment for the one who's sin was "paid for." Sin cannot be punished twice...

A lot a Hymns "imply" false doctrines.

The problem with "payment for sins" besides that it is not in the Bible, and that it is bad theology.... in that you can hardly listen to a sermon where this is not stated, and stated more emphatically than Scripture itself! People get so convinced from the repetition of the dogma that they...

And.. it says absolutely nothing about a "payment for sins."
