    Not a chance in a billion years that I would do that. His name shall be called, among other things, the everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6).

    Mat 7:15, Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Mat 7:16, Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

    Do you even know? He is the eternal Spirit come in flesh.

    You have certainly not attacked me in the last few posts...:rolleyes:. No; I currently go to a Calvary Chapel; but was previously baptized in Jesus' Name through an Apostolic church. This nightmare of persecution continues...I believe that the Father and the Son are distinct Persons within...

    Without unconditional Election,no one would be saved.

    Since these doctrines are not what I would call essentials for salvation but peripheral issues in the word of the Lord; and because I am still being treated abrasively to a certain extent: I am going to bow out now if the backlash for doing so will not be so dramatic as it was the last time I...

    I think that one of the reasons why people differ in doctrine is that they have differing hermeneutical practices, would you agree?

    It is the implication of what you teach; for do you not teach that a man is saved and receives grace before he comes to faith and repentance? I know that some in your camp do. So if you disagree with them, take a stand and say that it is so. Otherwise, you are teaching with them, by...

    You are assuming that context can change the plain meaning of a verse. "Every" means "every".

    I don't think that I am. But it would be too tedious for me to prove that I'm not, so for now I will concede the point. Taking note of your moniker though; so if it becomes evident later I can and will point it out.

    There is a seed in every cherry (see Luke 8:11). Why don't you take the seed in question and allow it to be planted in your heart? I'm not sure what your point is by all of this.

    Can a Christian have a demon?

    I was in a ministry in South Carolina where revival was occurring because the practice of laying on of hands for impartation was happening on a regular basis throughout the body of Christ in that congregation.

    If you are not unified in your doctrine as Calvinists, then you need to hash out your differences before coming here and trying to convert us as a group in unison.

    You believe it, you just don't realize that you do. I've seen you defend it when it wasn't put in those words. Now don't call me into question on this because I probably can't go back and find the post where you did this. But I am saying to you truthfully that at least one of you did.

    Misrepresenting. No doubt, I am not denying that my faith is from the Lord, Romans 10:17. He reached down to pull me out of the pit I was in, and I, wanting to be rescued, reached up and took His hand. No virtue on my part in that. I would never have been able to get out of the pit myself...

    Jhn 3:18, He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. People reject the forgiveness that Christ offers; and therefore they are condemned over their sins because they have not...

    Thing is, spirit and soul and body are inexplicably intertwined.

    Obedience of you all...

    What if it s God's aim to make us fit for the kingdom of heaven in our spirits (in this life) so that when we receive our glorified bodes, there will be no spiritual sin that would corrupt that work?

    Without unconditional Election,no one would be saved.

    Would you have been saved without repentance? I will answer that for you: your doctrine teaches that a person is saved before they repent and place their faith in Jesus Christ; and therefore the implication is that a man can be saved apart from faith and repentance. But if your faith and...

    Keep reading your Bible and I believe that you will see differently in the long run (if you have the right Bible).

    Obedience of you all...

    Can we be sanctified to the point that we are no longer violating any of the commandments and/or virtues that are exemplified in the word of the Lord?
