    God over free-will

    Well it is official, this thread is derailed. Instead of addressing the issues presented we have now switched to addressing the addresser. I have a feeling this will not be the last time I am attacked for presenting the TRUTH. Rex, Pigeon hole it if you will, but you are clearly uninterested...

    God over free-will

    Statement in question This eisegesis is what I believe so many people do today with their holy grail of free-will. The concept of individualism and self determination has reduced the idea of a sovereign God to something evil in some way. Your response We are saved by grace through faith. It...

    God over free-will

    Your quote Quote There will never be an agreement on this topic because it is already set within a theology that is incorrect to say the least. You cannot work from another man's ideology and think that it will somehow bring everyone to the same conclusion. That is how the JWs and Mormon's...

    God over free-will

    Your game here is very distracting and adds nothing to the discussion. Unless you want to use scripture to disprove anything I have used scripture to prove you are wasting everyones time.

    God over free-will

    Ok now you resorted to claiming I made statements that I did not. Your quote: Scripture clearly says babies will be in heaven. My quote: No it does not. The closest statement you will find regarding this subject is actually given by King David when grieving his child. Your quote: Pretend you...

    God over free-will

    In this you are inferring I have not. You do not know anything about my Bible study habits so why would you make a comment about them. With this way of thinking I could say, why go to church and listen to your pastor? You have the bible and the Holy Spirit that is enough. He is a type of...

    God over free-will

    I wrote next to your comments in red. Romans 8:7-8 The mind set on the flesh is an unregenerate. This is another term for the non-believer. What is deduced from scripture here is the non-believer is unable to choose to submit to God's law. This means their choices are restricted. An easy...

    God over free-will

    Well it is funny you say that because actually I am currently attending a conservative evangelical Bible college where where are being taught how to do expository preaching, hence the reason I am learning about past and present theologians. Now as for the texts you commented on you actually...

    God over free-will

    Actually I am saying that theologians have been disagreeing all of these years, yet all claim to have the same Holy Spirit you and I do. I agree we should seek God for answers and gain wisdom from our relationship, yet drawing upon the wisdom of others is also prudent. Proverbs 12:15 15 The...

    God over free-will

    I am glad you say this because my fellow peers do not consider me Calvinist, as to which I say amen, I am a Christian. All this work I have collected on my own, with the help of the Holy Spirit of course. Truly what inspired me in this endeavor was reading Martian Luther's "Bondage of the...

    God over free-will

    Just for your sake King J Why does killing babies guarantee them a spot in heaven and when did I say God shows favoritism? I think the bible is clear about murders. Revelation 21:8 8 “But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and...

    The KEY to understanding WHY all the different denominations

    Man has a will to be able to choose but that freedom is restricted, I have a thread on this very topic right now titled God over Free-Will. I think many people have a problem identifying with God's sovereignty, and this is a dividing point for many denominations. Western society has...

    The KEY to understanding WHY all the different denominations

    Here is what Daniel says. 21 “It is He who changes the times and the epochs; He removes kings and establishes kings; He gives wisdom to wise men And knowledge to men of understanding. My point is this, God is in sovereign control over the affairs of men, all men throughout all time. If...

    The KEY to understanding WHY all the different denominations

    Romans 13:1 1 Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God.

    Can You Lose Your Salvation ?

    Yes I agree here, and this poses a much harder question to answer. Jeremiah 32:39-40 39 and I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me always, for their own good and for the good of their children after them. 40 “I will make an everlasting covenant with them that I will...

    God over free-will

    Your baby analogy is absurd, incorrect, and does no such thing to a Calvinistic perspective. Nothing I have posted goes against the good nature of God although it blatantly sheds light on the depraved and evil nature of man. This is disturbing and perhaps this is more where your concern is...

    Can You Lose Your Salvation ?

    King J, I am certain you are incorrect in your assessment of this pericope. The language is plain and there is no need for the allusion of marriage attached to it. As far as your questions you presented I instead choose to focus on the subject at hand. The way I handled your response may have...
