You should agree also, then, that the Cross is the "appeasement of wrath"...that God's wrath and justice is satisfied, or appeased, by the work of the Cross. But I think that, having departed from the truth, you will be unable to return to it apart from a true miracle (Hebrews 6:1-8).

Romans 3:25-26. "propitiation" means "appeasement of wrath." 2 Corinthians 4:3-4. Acts of the Apostles 28:26-27. 1 Corinthians 2:14.

That's what I'm saying. So who are we to judge other people as being vile, when we ourselves are just as vile? Why contemn him when he is merely a man with flaws in his character? No one is perfect except for God Himself, even Jesus Christ. Instead of lambasting him on the internet, you...

The Bible teaches Penal Substitution theory. Perhaps not in words that you would use, or in words that you would accept as being reminiscent of the gospel that is presented by PSA; but the teaching is there. The fact is, the doctrine can be preached with the use of certain doctrines that come...

But I'm certain that there are incompetent buffoons who don't praise him as well as good people who do and who will last long. I believe that it was John Quincy Adams who made the mistake of placing in his cabinet people who had differing views than what would be conducive to accomplishing...

It just goes to show that men will speak all kinds of evil against you falsely if you follow the Lord Jesus. If Franklin Graham receives a financial blessing for what he does, more power to him! "You shall not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the grain." and "the labourer is worthy of his...

PSA deals with the problem that justice and mercy contradict each other and that both cannot be true together apart from the Cross. But with the PSA understanding of the Cross, both justice is satisfied and mercy can also be meted out to the sinner; in that the sinner's just penalty was meted...

So, in your opinion, which one is God? merciful, or just? Note that in picking one you must exclude the other based on what you have said above. That there is something to forgive and be merciful about is clear from such verses as Romans 3:23, Galatians 3:22, and 1 John 1:8, 1 John 1:10. So...

Acts of the Apostles 2:38 shows forth a conditional promise; as evidenced by what it says in Acts of the Apostles 2:39.

Sin takes advantage of the law in order to produce all manner of concupiscence (Romans 7:8). The motions of sins, that bring forth fruit unto death, are by the law (Romans 7:5).

He became a Christian during his first term of office. And while there is a teaching that says that sanctification from that point is gradual, I believe that a general statement can be made about all of those who are born again: 2Co 5:17, Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new...

1...capitalize words that refer to God, it is only the respect that is due unto Him. 2...water baptism is not a work.

Again, all I'm saying is that Acts 2:38 is a conditional promise of holy scripture. Luke 11:13 is also a similar promise. But if you don't think you got it through fulfilling the condition in Luke 11:13, I don't see the harm in seeking it through the condition in Acts 2:38, which offers it...

I believe that born again Christians would want him to be opposed to abortion (even those who believe in sola scriptura)...because of what is written in Proverbs 31:8-9 on the subject. A President that would be favourable towards righteous people (Christians) would also be favourable towards...

Should Trump be ruling or should it be the people? Which one is it?

And I suppose that because you hate them, you hold him in disrespect also. I know that you will very likely deny it...nevertheless it is the logical conclusion.

He is a ruler of the people; which is what the verse in question, quoted from the OT, is about. Exo 22:28, Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people. Act 23:5, Then said Paul, I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak...

Trump's expertise is in the economy...and he has done a good job of reviving it before, and will do so again if re-elected.

I think that if you consider the alternative in this upcoming election, you would vote for Trump as the lesser of two evils. Biden is certainly not the Moses to his Pharaoh. If anything, it is the other way around.

The office of President deserves a certain amount of respect that goes with the office. Showing disrespect to him is disobedience to the biblical command that we find in Acts 23:5 and elsewhere.
