    Why the cross actually saves

    It has been stated previously that your pov requires Limited Atonement or else Universalism is the reality. Iow, if, as you say, Jesus died for the sin of continued unbelief and or rejection of Him to the end of one's life, then your own people have stated that all would be saved. We contend...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Y'all can come up with your alternate interpretations...but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD...as for me, I will take the scripture at face value and not abide by teachings about the scriptures but will allow the Holy Ghost to teach me with the scripture itself. 1Jo 2:27, But the...

    Why the cross actually saves

    That's Universalism. Because He gave Himself as a ransom for all, 1 Timothy 2:6.

    He was touched with the feeling of our infirmities.

    Why the cross actually saves

    Christ was indeed tempted. Heb 4:15, For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

    Why the cross actually saves

    It does not include rejecting Him, and neither does it include unbelief. Faith in Jesus Christ is set forth in the word of the Lord as the only way to enter into and maintain salvation...and therefore if someone does not believe in Him, they will find themselves outside of the umbrella of what...

    Why the cross actually saves

    Then you have God being tempted...because Jesus is God. But if the only temptable part of Jesus was His humanity, then God was not tempted; but it was only the human part of Jesus. Now in the hypostatic union Jesus is 100% God and 100% Man...but I do not see anything in that doctrine that says...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    How did He make Himself equal to God? He identified God as being His Father, which identified Him as the Son. The Son shall have the name applied to Him the everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6). I do find that the Father and the Son are distinct. The Father (1st Person of the Trinity) inhabiteth...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    All they had to do was remember what is written in their own scriptures, that the son that was given would be given the name the everlasting Father among other things (Isaiah 9:6).

    I was referring to his labeling of me as a Pharisee.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    You are assuming that the Pharisees were wrong in everything that they believed in about the Lord.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    I have been baptized in Jesus' name four times; but have not spent much time inside of Oneness Pentecostal churches. I currently am going to Calvary Chapel. I believe that my doctrine concerning the Trinity is developed out of having received the Holy Ghost as a result of the promise in Acts...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    That the best you got? You fall back on bearing briers and thorns when you don't have a leg to stand on. I'm not in disagreement with any of the above. I would say, however, that you should consider 1 John 5:12, "He that hath the Son hath life". For this to be, the Son would have to be a...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    There is one Spirit (Ephesians 4:4). The Father is that Spirit (John 4:23-24). The Holy Ghost is that Spirit (John 7:39). They are the same Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:4-6). But they are distinct in that the Father in His pre-incarnate form dwells in eternity (Isaiah 57:15); then descended...

    I think that we see the same thing from different angles.

    1Co 2:14, But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

    God Offers All the Free Gift of Salvation!

    If you can't make it clear what it was that you were trying to say, there will be no further discussion.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    I think that I would say that the Holy Ghost is distinct from the Father but the same Person.
