You have repeated your two-level system, but you still have not shown where Scripture actually teaches a lower salvation for unbelievers who inherit life without Christ. John 3 is not limited to Nicodemus or ethnic Israel. The passage says, “God so loved the world,” that the Son came “that the...

Those reading this thread should stop looking at charts, spiritual levels, claimed revelations, and human systems long enough to read the passages being quoted in their actual context. Scripture does not teach two ways of justification, two saving levels of righteousness, or a lower salvation...

No. God did not command you to separate His words from what He actually said. That is not “rightly dividing.” That is wrongly splicing Scripture together to manufacture a meaning that neither passage teaches. Deuteronomy 30:19 says: “I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing...

Exactly. The issue is not whether someone can find an interesting pattern in the wording. The issue is whether that pattern is actually taught by the text. When Matthew, Mark, and Luke record the fruitfulness differently, the proposed chronological meaning falls apart. Calling attention to that...

God is sovereign over His Word. You are not. Paul wrote by the Holy Spirit as an apostle of Jesus Christ. Your claim that “here it’s me whether you like it or believe it or not” does not place your interpretation in the same category as inspired Scripture. That is an enormous claim, and...

God’s sovereignty over His Word does not give us permission to separate His words from what He actually said. Context is not a rule men have imposed upon God. It is the surrounding Scripture God Himself inspired. When Jesus and the apostles quoted the Old Testament, they were speaking under...

You are still reading your conclusion into the parable rather than drawing it from the parable. Matthew 24:12 says that because iniquity shall abound, “the love of many shall wax cold.” That is true, but it does not say that the thirtyfold, sixtyfold, and hundredfold fruit in the parable...

That statement is false. Context does not “rule over” exegesis as though it were some human invention imposed upon Scripture. Context is Scripture. The words before and after a verse are part of what God said, and they establish what the passage means. Ignoring context is not deeper exegesis. It...

That does not prove Jesus “broke context.” It proves that Psalm 22 was fulfilled in Him. David wrote from real suffering, but the psalm itself reaches far beyond David. It speaks of mockers saying, “He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him” (Psalm 22:8), of hands and feet being pierced...

I do not believe the text supports what you are claiming here. Matthew records the fruit as “an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold” (Matthew 13:8, KJV), but Mark records it in the opposite order: “thirtyfold, sixty, and an hundred” (Mark 4:8, KJV). Luke simply says it “bare fruit an...

Jesus never “broke context.” That statement is false. Jesus did not misuse Scripture or remove passages from their intended meaning. He said, “I do nothing on my own authority, but speak just as the Father taught me” (John 8:28, ESV), and, “I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father...

There is a serious warning here, but I do not believe the text says that the narrow way is a hidden, difficult path that only a few people discover “within the church.” Jesus said, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 7:21). These are...

He is located in Charlotte, NC, and I live in Indiana. My wife and family lived in Charlotte, NC, for a long time before we moved. So we still watch him on TV, youtube.com, on Sundays.

God’s plan is deeper than our minds, wiser than our systems, and larger than our pride.

You have made the real problem plain. You are saying Christians have been misled by false teachers for two thousand years, while you are the one who has finally “untwisted” Scripture. That is not humility before the Word of God. That is pride, and it places your own understanding above what is...

You are a false teacher. You twist Scripture, ignore context, claim the Holy Spirit speaks through you, and then accuse anyone who tests your words of rejecting God. That is exactly how deception protects itself. Mark 13:11 does not authorize your private revelations. It speaks about Christ’s...

I have already answered your claims from Scripture, and I am not going to keep walking the same ground while you refuse to deal with what the Bible actually says. You said I judged you because your words do not agree with what I believe. That is not the issue. It is not just what I believe. It...

I understand your point. A person whose hope is truly in Christ should love the truth and not knowingly reject what Scripture plainly teaches. My only caution is that genuine believers can still misunderstand something or be misled for a time. That is why Scripture repeatedly warns believers to...

Glad we agree. The rest simply lays out the Scripture behind the statement. Truth is worth more than a quick glance.

You are ripping Mark 13:11 out of context to make your own words sound untouchable. That passage is about Christ’s disciples being arrested, beaten, and dragged before rulers for His name. It does not give you permission to claim the Holy Spirit is speaking through you and then act like nobody...
