I happened to see this, but I could have easily missed it. Do you not know how to tag people on here? If not, you use the @ key followed by the person's username. Anyway, no, I don't pray for the salvation of others. Why would I do that when I believe in free will? That would be ridiculous...

I don't know why you are saying this when it does not seem to line up with your Calvinist beliefs. Do you really think it's genuinely possible for those who you think are born totally depraved to be saved when you believe that only those who God gives repentance and faith are saved? How exactly...

He goes out of his way to deny the truth. Scripture is clear that Jesus would return only once and it most certainly was not in 70 AD. His 3 comings of Christ and 3 resurrections theory belongs in the garbage bin.

LOL. You are so deceived. No one saw Christ return in 70 AD. That is utter nonsense that can't be taken seriously. He will return in the future and everyone in the world will see Him and will be judged by Him at that point (Matthew 25:31-46).

No, 2 Peter 3:10-13 is without question about the future return of Jesus Christ. Scripture never speaks of "the old covenant age". Jesus spoke of this temporal age in contrast to the eternal age to come (Luke 20:34-36), but never in terms of an old covenant age and new covenant age. Also, the...

I had mentioned that Jesus said it will be like the days of Noah and that I wasn't sure it would get quite as bad as it was in those days when only 8 people in the world were saved, so how does this relate to that comment exactly? Are you saying what is described there in Revelation 16 is...

You apparently aren't reading everything I'm saying about this topic because you would not be saying this if you did. I've made it quite clear that I believe God wants all people to be saved and that He offers salvation to all people. But, all people are required to use their free will to choose...

I don't know. That's why I asked you that question. It seems, to be consistent with what you believe you would tell the person that there is nothing they can do to be saved because God does it all. So, was my question too hard? What would you tell the person? You make no sense whatsoever in...

Read Romans 6. Paul talks about believers dying to sin in the present tense. When we become saved, we die to sin in the sense that we no longer sin unrepentantly because we want to obey Christ and pursue righteousness instead. This is a very simple concept and it says a lot that you can't even...

No, I'm not a universalist. What gave you that idea? We must be defining terms differently. To me, limited atonement means that Christ's atonement is limited only to certain people and the rest don't even have the opportunity to have their sins atoned for. I don't believe that. I believe all...

What are you basing this on? Just because Jesus didn't mention white horses? That's a very weak argument, if so. Not every passage about the second coming contains all of the details regarding it. It's a wonder that you ever relate any two verses of scripture together with the way you interpret...

What would you tell a random person who you don't know that came up to you and asked you what they needed to do to be saved?

True. Very true! You deny explicit scriptural truth, to your shame. LOL! A complete twisting of God's word. You have no shame. The text indicates that when the wicked die, God takes no pleasure in it because He would rather that they had repented of their ways instead. He wanted them to repent...

LOL!!! While someone is not saved and part of the wicked, they are not His people! Hello??? You are twisting scripture completely out of proportion. The level of foolishness in your posts is off the charts. What in the world are you talking about? He wants all people everywhere to come to...

Without exception. God is love (1 John 4:8) and wants literally all people to repent and to be saved. Do you think that God is pleased to leave some people in their wickedness so that they end up being eternally tormented or do you think He wants them to repent and to be saved before they die...

You don't get it. His people are not the wicked. Hello? His people are called the righteous. His people don't need to repent because they are His people. No unrepentant people are His people. Your doctrine comes from your imagination. The wicked are those who are not His people and need to...

I would say the same about Calvinists like you and TribulationSigns. Do you believe that God wants literally all people to be saved, as 1 Timothy 2:3-6 says? Do you believe that God offers salvation to literally all people, as Titus 2:11 indicates? Do you believe that God commands literally all...

I never said that. Don't be foolish by trying to put words in my mouth. For a follower of Christ to die to sin means to give one's life to Christ and intend to follow righteousness instead of their former sinful lifestyle. Christ didn't sin, so He didn't die to sin in the way that we do. So...

I did not say that. Why are you making up lies? I'm saying he would rather the wicked repent than to die in their wickedness. Do you agree with that or not? Who said the wicked are innocent? Do you know that you can't get the time back that you waste making strawman arguments? Are you reading...

I don't know how bad God will allow it to get before Jesus returns. Jesus did say it will be like the days of Noah, so it seems it will get pretty bad before Jesus returns, if not quite as bad as those days when only 8 people in the entire world were saved.
