Well, that is a lot of stuff and I do not understand some things. Still though, I suppose David was not able to punish him as Absalom had already had him killed...?

I wonder why David did not punish the man who raped Absalom's sister :IDK:

John 3:6 "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." 1st birth, flesh 2nd birth, Spirit. But this is not something we must agree on brother, thank you for the replies.

Hmm, not at all sure of what this has to do with Jesus and Nicodemus's conversation. But thanks :)

Praying for wisdom to make the hard decisions! Amen.

Hi Scott, Just a quick question and comment. If we are to be born again, we would have to have been born already, once (through the flesh or, from your mother which yes, it is of the flesh -John 3:6 "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." So...

Thank you Scott, I like your explanation. "John 6 answers a lot of questions on being foreknown and predestined to be the children of God God's work is that you believe in Christ, Jesus adds on and says all those the Father gives to Him will come to Him. If God has not foreknown and...

"The best example is the terminally ill whose future is guaranteed to be filled with indignity and suffering. Modern medicine may dull the pain but it does not remove the dehumanizing, the loss of dignity in such cases." This is a good example, when God say's our time is up and our life is...

This doctrine has caused many to doubt their salvation. If Adam ushered in the sin nature where as ALL are born with depravity (which I do believe), then what happened to the "all people" under Christ are offered the gift? Seems like a double standard to me. Romans 5:14 "1 Corinthians 15:21-22...

Hi Wrangler, I see what you are saying but, our lives do not belong to us, they belong to God IMHO. On the other hand, there are people who take their lives because they fell into despair and are not thinking clearly as they end their lives.

No, I won't use scripture ( :IDK: ) as I have already posted plenty of it showing that God gives the gift of Christ freely. Why would He do this if He thought we should NOT accept this free gift from God Almighty??! Sorry but, I will not be reading your bloviating posts any more...

Not at all "making it a condition to be saved". But Jesus did tell all people to repent and be baptized...not to do so would be disobedience.

Okay then. According to your logic, repentance and baptism, are all works of the flesh in order to receive salvation?

So, you choose to refuse a gift from God Himself? Why would He offer this salvation through Christ if He condemns it? He does not tempt anyone so, explain to me please why you would shun this gift? John 4:10 "Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who...

o_O There IS no salvation without receiving the gift of Christ freely offered us from The Father.

When a gift is offered, it is not a gift if refused. That's just common sense. And accepting a gift is NOT works! We receive many gifts from the Lord every day and never question it, but we (should) receive it with gratitude. Food, water, clothes, shelter, air, trees, lovely seas, creeks and...

The Lord has seen fit to heal me of migraines. First one I had I was about 6 years old. I was prone to many regular headaches but as I grew older they increased, right into my 40's. The meds the doctors gave me back then gave me heart pain so I found myself between a rock and a hard place...

Migraines are horrid! Praying for Mr. Duck. pryw

I love that prayer covering on you Sissy!! xoxo
