    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    I'm not sure why you address (Hebrews 6) I was responding to Dan57's post. Yes, the one that comes to Christ, Christ will certainly not cast out. So how did Dan57 get cast out? Or how does he get back in? Stranger

    Dream And Vision Interpretation

    (1 Cor. 12-14), (Rom. 12), and (Eph. 4) form the list from which we understand what the gifts are. Stranger

    Dream And Vision Interpretation

    Pharoah had the testimony from the chief butler of the true fulfillment of Josephs interpretation, which involved several criteia needed to be fulfilled, including the death of one. (Gen. 41:9-13) Nebuchadnezzar had enough sense to know anyone can give an interpretation. To every dream you...

    Who Does The Father Draw?

    I did note what it says as I am the one who gave it. (2 Thess. 2:13) "...God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth." You confuse the operation here. You say it lines up with election, and predestination, which are for...

    Dream And Vision Interpretation

    I have no problem with all of the gifts of the Holy Ghost operating in the Body of Christ. And many times the Spirit of God will minister to one through another's gift though the one having the gift doesn't know it. The Holy Spirit knows what the believer needs and provides it. And these...

    Dream And Vision Interpretation

    Dreams, visions, and prophecies were given to a select few prior to the coming of the Holy Spirit. But with the coming of the Spirit, it was upon all believers. (Joel 2:28-29) (Acts 2:16-18) Thus resulting in the gifts of the Spirit. Stranger

    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    That speaks of an apostate Christianity that leaves the true teaching about Jesus Christ. If indeed you see yourself having lost your salvation what makes you think you got it back? There is nothing in the Bible that says once you have lost your salvation, then here are the steps to get it...

    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    As usual you ignore what I said. All you can do is shout 'epignosis'. No, my understanding of the believers assurance of salvation does not ride on 'epignosis'. I simply have to address it because you lay such importance on it. Hey, have some bread with that glass of whine. Stranger

    Dream And Vision Interpretation

    Strange you wouldn't have thought of that before since interpretation of dreams is not a gift of the Holy Spirit. It comes from being absent in the naming of the gifts of the Spirit. Because it is not a gift of the Holy Spirit, then you are self appointed to that position. You are no...

    Who Does The Father Draw?

    This is nothing but the emphasis on mans part in the salvation process. The part where he does exercise his will. But something else has gone before that. The choosing of God and the work of the Spirit in the life of the one chosen. (2 Thess. 2:13) "...because God hath from the...

    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    You ignore the context. You ignore (2 Peter 2:1). You ignore the absence of a change of nature in (2 Peter 2:22). You build this loss of salvation doctrine on one word, 'epignosis'. The use of this word doesn't teach the new birth as you claim. It doesn't teach that one that has such...

    Who Does The Father Draw?

    The invitation is real because God has paid for all sin. The blood of Jesus Christ has paid for all sin. Thus the invitation is real. Any who come, will be saved. Any! None will be turned away who come. I showed you in (Rom. 9) where it is supported in Scripture. Two very individual...

    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    Yes, you are the drama queen. Bold red and bold black. Yet your drama changes nothing. (John 6:66) is understood in light of (John 6:65). "...no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father." Those who left were never born-again. Never given by the Father. See...

    CAN WE FALL AWAY ?

    The willful sin is forsaking the Christian assembly. The 'For' in (Heb. 10:26) connects back to verse (25). God will bring the believer under some judgement, but he will not lose his salvation. Ah, yes, I remember the 'epignosis' wars. How silly. (2 Peter 2:22) is clear. The dog is still...

    Who Does The Father Draw?

    That first article really grieves me sister. Please study up on 'imputation'. Man always has a righteousness of his own. Always...both in the Old and New Testament. And our righteousness can appear very good and acceptable by man. But though it is very good, when we stand before God...

    Who Does The Father Draw?

    Yes, I mean a specific person. God knew you and I before He laid the foundations of the world. And so He chose us in Christ. (Eph. 1:4) You and I were always 'of God'. To clarify, lets say the fall never occurred. Adam and Eve continued in a blissful state upon the earth having many...

    Who Does The Father Draw?

    I scanned the articles. The first by Steve Jones was very disappointing. If one rejects God's acts of imputation, then we cannot be saved. I really hate to see someone write an article like that. As to the second, it seems he holds to imputation, saying at the end that God will impute...

    Who Does The Father Draw?

    (John 6:64) is clear that though these followed Christ, they were not believers. Like Judas. And Jesus pretty much was calling them out. He was saying you are following me, but you do not believe. And, you won't believe as the Father has not given you to me. Those that were not believers...
