Read what follows that verse, which is a description of His transfiguration. Have you ever considered that He could have been talking about His transfiguration? There where some who had been standing there when He was speaking in Matthew 16:28 (Peter, James and John) who saw Him appear in glory...

The king in the parable is God the Father. It specifically says the king, representing God the Father, sent His armies to destroy them and their city. He used the Roman armies to do that. All people are His in a certain sense, so the Romans armies were His armies in the sense that He used them...

You've seen the miscommunication we've had, so, yes, do whatever you need to do to make your beliefs clear, so I don't have to guess. Are you not aware that scripture teaches that we are not saved by good works? Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of...

Marty, please address what it says in Matthew 22:2-7. You are conflating two different things here. Matthew 22:2-7 is very clear that it is God the Father who brought judgment against the Jews in 70 AD.

You are horribly mistaken. There is only one gospel and there has always only been one gospel. There has never been any way to be saved except through faith and not by works. Okay, now I see what causes your false belief. Galatians 2:7 is not talking about two different gospels. Here is a...

I would agree if you mean that repentance is also required. Repentance and faith go hand in hand. But, can you explain what you mean by that exactly? What do you think is required for someone to be saved?

Which post are you talking about? My post #2 in this thread? I know that you misunderstood what I said in that post because you quoted only one thing from it, which, by itself, gave the impression that I believed a certain thing, but the rest of my post showed what I really believe. It can look...

I never said otherwise. Do you understand that? You seem to have trouble understanding what people are saying for some reason.

I'm asking what that means exactly. Do they think if someone sins a certain amount after being born again then they are condemned or if they commit certain sins they are condemned or something like that? Salvation is by grace through faith and is not by good works, so if we're not saved by good...

I never said otherwise. Even the demons believe and shudder (James 2:19), so just believing He exists is not saving faith. Paul said that one must confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead in order to be saved (Romans 10:9). You seem to misunderstand a lot of what...

Yes, I did. Do you agree disagree with that? Right. Do you agree or disagree with that? Keep in mind I'm talking about true believers who are saved there.

You're trying to reason with someone who is unreasonable. It can't be done.

That's not what is indicated here... Matthew 22:2 “The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who arranged a marriage for his son, 3 and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they were not willing to come. 4 Again, he sent out other servants, saying, ‘Tell...

What do you think I am dead wrong about exactly? You thought I was wrong about believing that only the unsaved will appear before the judgment seat of Christ, but that's not even what I was saying.

Do you not know what a strawman argument is? You thought I was saying that only the unsaved will appear before the judgment seat of Christ, did you not? That's the only part of my post that you quoted. You proceeded to show that believers will also appear before the judgment seat of Christ...

Your education is not helping you to see my point. I'm not saying education is bad or worthless, I'm saying our level of spiritual discernment is not dependent on that. 1 Corinthians 2:13 These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches...

I was talking about learning what scripture actually teaches, not learning what others believe. LOL! What an ironic statement. You didn't seem to have any problem telling me about your theological education here, as if it's supposed to mean anything to me. Look here. This whole thing started...

Yes, let's stop talking just because I'm not bowing down to you while you're up on your high horse, propped up by your pride over your education. Okay then.

No, that's not true. You are changing the text to fit your doctrine. You see the rewards we receive in this life as relating to the judgment seat of Christ, right? I disagree, but let's just assume that's true for the sake of argument. What does Paul say? 2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all...

I see that you ignored everything I said and you're childishly trying to change the topic of the thread despite my saying that I'm not interested in having a OSAS vs. NOSAS debate with you here right now. If you started a thread with that topic on the General Theology forum or the Soteriology...
