I went through them. Lotsa expression of our Lord's will for us, but nothing that abrogates man's free will.

Why would God deliberately cause someone to choose the Lake of Fire when from Genesis to Revelation He pleads with the wicked -- ALL WICKED -- to turn from the way of destruction?

We first choose by awakened love for Him to submit to His control before He begins exercising loving control over us, in the same way the wife lovingly submits to the husband. BTW, both she and we can throw off that control at any time.

Beware the higher critics, bro. They are all too anxious to be revered as genius by the many godless “intellectuals” who think questioning the status quo is an irrefutable sign of it. Whether we’re dealing with OOPARTS, Paleocurrents, Polonium Halos, Sweitzer’s Dino Bones, or whatever, Satan’s...

God controls no one except they who submit to that control. He’s not a despot, he’s a kind Divine Gentlemen. Has He not given us the MARRIAGE covenant to demonstrate that as the man loves his wife as Christ loved the church and is willing to die for her and she in reciprocation voluntarily...

You, sir, have violated established NATO treaties by dropping a 10 megaton truth bomb.

Your analogy doesn’t prove simultaneous existence and non-existence of freewill in man, only that the options placed before us for our freewill choosing vary in their appeal. In this case, the choice to pursue a carrot vs. to not - while you sit in the wagon going nowhere while the goat...

I think your premise is flawed - slavery robs us of freedom, not freewill. Every slave except those with a hole in their ear wills to be free and would exercise that will if given the opportunity. What keeps sinners in bondage is not that they lack freewill, but that they think they’re already...

Proof that the atonement is held out as a gift to anyone, not just a predetermined few.

Ex nihilo creation by the Word of God is a thing. Man possessing and not possessing free will at the same time is not.

There have been archaeological finds substantiating the Exodus. But like the good doctor says, ancient Egyptians were like modern day Russians which never ever admitted to mistakes or embarrassing outcomes - and what could be more embarrassing than to have your entire nation turned upside down...

Can you hear yourself? We have free will but God controls us. That's like a woman being both pregnant and not pregnant at the same time.

I can play that game too. Only an insane or idiotic person will deny that "all men" in the phrase "death passed to all men" refers to the entire human race since Adam, right or wrong? Therefore, since "the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life", Calvinism must be abandoned for...

Calvinists unfortunately have the dubious distinction of being aligned with atheist communist leftists in that both groups refuse to acknowledge man's inherent "freedom of choice", and both seem to want to only recognize that "inequality of opportunity" is always the cause of "inequality of...

I can claim "subjective reasoning" on your part just as easily as you claim "out of context" on mine. However, what settles the issue is Hebrew Chiastic Structure. It exposes the flaw of Jesuit Futurism, which is why Jesuit Futurists ignore it. In this case, a blind man can see the chiasm at...

That interpretation destroys the Chiasm. The correct interpretation that in both cases "all men" refers to "all the inhabitants of the Earth" leaves the Chiasm intact.

I don't know if you're into docs but "The Spade Unearths The Truth" is a really great one which deals with Egyptology, as well as other issues in archaeology which confirm the claims of the Bible:

"Strait (difficult) is the gate."

The A/C is broken, the food isn't that great, the seats are hard, no pop or rap or heavy metal or country/western: only boring hymns and spiritual songs, absolutely no hanky panky, cross-dressing, or gay pride allowed, the route is bumpy and difficult and often the bus often gets violently...

Agreed. The sun hardens clay but melts butter. The heart of Pharaoh was of such substance that hardened when coming in contact with the Potter. And why not? According to Biblical chronology, he was "Tutmoses III" (not Ramses) aka "the Napoleon of Egypt" - the mightiest of all the ancient...
