    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    Sure, there is and notice how I properly harmonized scripture with scripture before reaching my conclusion on doctrine. As Greek scholar AT Robertson stated: Change of number from plural to singular and of person from second to third. This change marks a break in the thought here that the...

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    1 John 1:8 - If we say that we have no sin, (present tense) we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, (past tense) we make Him a...

    Scripture in Context

    I don't cherry pick. I read Scripture in context and properly harmonize Scripture with Scripture before reaching my conclusion on doctrine. Your continued childish troll behavior is noted.

    Scripture in Context

    What's weird is your anti-OSAS derangement syndrome. That's what happens when you remain a shut in and don't fellowship with Christians at church.

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    That's more typical of works-salvationists in the NOSAS camp.

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    Legalists are the real hypocrites. Especially those in the sinless perfection camp. (1 John 1:8-10)

    10 Questions about Eternal Security

    More troll behavior. Typical agitator. Don't expect believers in the OSAS camp to take you seriously. As if you care anyway.

    Oh the IRONY.

    Scripture in Context

    Eisegesis - an interpretation, especially of Scripture, that expresses the interpreter's own ideas, bias, or the like, rather than the meaning of the text.

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    In Acts 2:38, "for the remission of sins" does not refer back to both clauses, "you all repent" and "each one of you be baptized," but refers only to the first. Peter is saying "repent unto the remission of your sins," the same as in Acts 3:19. The clause "each one of you be baptized" is...

    10 Questions about Eternal Security

    Oh how you love straw man arguments. As long as they culminate in slandering folks in the OSAS camp. The Amplified version may help you to understand better. 1 John 3:9 - No one who is born of God [deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin, because God’s seed [His principle of...

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    False. This errant teaching sounds like the result of indoctrination from the church of Christ. In Matthew 3:11, we read - I baptize you with water "for" repentance. Was this baptism for "in order to obtain" repentance? OR was this baptism for "in regard to/on the basis of" repentance? Getting...

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    So, you reject illumination and believe that you understand God's word simply through human intelligence? (1 Corinthians 2:11-14) I did not say "opened her heart" meant regeneration but it does mean opened her heart for understanding. Faith does come through hearing the word of God, yet without...

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    That is false. There is only one baptism that places us into the body of Christ and that is Spirit baptism, not water baptism. Ephesians 4:5 - one Lord, one faith, one baptism. 1 Corinthians 12:13 - For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or...

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    There is more to coming to saving faith in Christ than merely paper, ink and human intelligence. The Holy Spirit works in conjunction with the Gospel, or the Word. There is an accompanying work of the Holy Spirit. They represent evangelical Christianity as teaching the work of the Spirit...

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    Although it is our responsibility to choose to believe in Christ for salvation and we will be held accountable for unbelief, (John 3:18) saving belief in Christ is never exclusively a matter of human decision. Unless the Father draws us (John 6:44) and enables us (John 6:65), we would NEVER come...

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    If it was all about self effort then none of us would come to believe in the first place (John 6:44, 65) or continue to believe.

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    Absolutely faith in Jesus Christ. He is the ONLY way. (John 10:9; 14;6; Acts 4:12) Praise God!

    OSAS being False Doctrine!

    I do embrace it all. Let's make sure that our faith is firmly rooted and established so that we can persevere by the power of God. (1 Peter 1:5)
