    How far must we go..........

    Theen you just proved my point, Yes I read your thread. And I understood everything you said. Eternal life is a one time event, Whether you believe in OSAS or not is not the question. I believe many people Hate OSAS because they hate calvinism. I do not know if this is your reason or not...

    How far must we go..........

    How far must one Go? Jesus gave us that answer 1. You must be born again 3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 2. You must acknowledge you are Lost, without hope, dead. And your only Hope is God. 14...

    Abiding In Christ Necessary for Eternal Life

    Sadly, it comes from the same root that has kept men from God from the begining. Pride. The thought that we so so evil an innocent animal has to shed his blood and that is the ONLY way I can be redeemed is foolish, Stupid, It gets people angry (its why the pharisees crucified Christ) How dare...

    Abiding In Christ Necessary for Eternal Life

    Galations would be a good book for them to read. Especially the first part. About doing to the gospel of Christ. And begining in the spirit. But needing to perfect that in the flesh.

    Abiding In Christ Necessary for Eternal Life

    Wow you are on a rampage. Funny how they ARE posting verses relating to SANCTIFICATION. Which ABIDING in the VINE IS. Of course we are not posting verses about regeneration. This OP is about abiding in the vine, that has zero to do with regeneration. If you’re not regenerated already. You will...

    Abiding In Christ Necessary for Eternal Life

    WOW, so now it all comes together. You were not mad at me because I said something, you were mad because what I said hit you also.. Abiding in the vine is not what we do to be saved. It’s what we do to grow in Christ. There will be many babes in Christ who will not see much reward in heaven...

    Abiding In Christ Necessary for Eternal Life

    they would have to attach themselves to the vine. Of course, if you think you can attach yourself. You think you can unattached yourself. So what you have is power in self. Not God

    If our interpretation of scripture sidesteps common sense, did we get it right?

    As far as proverbs 2 goes. it is best to look back in the origional language. the word is tusiyya - by interpretation it means תּוּשִׁיָּה, תֻּשִׁיָּה Pr 3:21. †:—1. success, (good) results Is 28:29; ʿāśâ tûšiyyâ achieve success Jb 5:12; sugg. effective counsel 26:3;—2. circumspection...

    If our interpretation of scripture sidesteps common sense, did we get it right?

    Why? John told us why 29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! 30 This is He of whom I said, ‘After me comes a Man who [k]is preferred before me, for He was before me.’ 31 I did not know Him; but that He should be...
