    Why do Catholics…

    That means her sins are forgiven- nothing to do with earning grace!

    Wrong! You fail to understand context, hermeneutics and exegesis so you wrongly apply that passage to spiritual salvation.

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    I choose to stay away from free will, simply because those two terms are at the heart of debate about can unsaved man, dead in sins and cannot please god has free will to choose God. I prefer to label our choices as volitional choices. But yes we have that freeedom in the bounds.

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Well this may be the3 desire of God, but not the Sovereign will of God! If God decrees- it is done and man cannot cross that point! Some call this stuff teh permissive will of god and I am content with that, because Scripture tells us nothing happens without God allowing it! He gives us...

    Rejoicing over what governor DeSantis did!

    Well I am glad I got my kids and most of my grandkids to see it, before Disney took a wonderful thing and trashed it with woke garbage!

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    I agree that these verses are about circumcision. And Paul in Galatians 5 listed the works of the flesh and circumcisaion was not one of them. Romans 8 is showing that we could not obey the law because the flesh is weak and cannot obey the law. Which is why one must be born spiritually, to...

    Timing of Eze 37 and 38 pre Trib?

    He is called the prince of the people who will come and destroy the sanctuary. when you couple him with all the other prophecies, you learn he is the antichrist!

    Rejoicing over what governor DeSantis did!

    So Glad governor Desantis got a bill passed removing all the perks and privileges given to Disney because they have left being a fun spot for families and has become central command for the immoral and debauched woke culture! I was able to take all 6 of my kids and 7 of my 9 grandchildren to...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    A whole ton? Be careful but list 5. Is this proclamation of yours infallible or just a spitball from you? when I got saved, I had a Catholic mindset about god blurred by Satanism, Hinduism and Secularism amongst other things! I got a bible in teh mail and sought to learn god from scratch...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    So mans disobedience is stronger than the Will of god? Mans free will supersedes gods will? I don't think so! Teh word is boulamai and it is in the Present participle active. It is not gods Will but Gods desire! Even Jesus knew the majority of mankind ends up in the lake of fire! Gods...

    The word draw there is this: 1670 helkýō – properly, induce (draw in), focusing on the attraction-power involved with the drawing. This word is a compulsion use. Like when the apostles drew in the nets when Jesus told them to cast it- they had to drag them in . That is why I like drag-...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Well that is me whjether you wish to believe it or not. I do not go to a reformed church, I do not hold teh Injstitues of Chriustian religion as my source systematic theology. I am Baptist. Just because I believe in teh biblical trruth of the five points, does not mean I accpet all of Calvins...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Once again, another parqadox of Scripture that is true! We are lost in time- but the elect from the foundation of the world! No I will not be dogmatic about this next statement: But I know that Scripture teaches we were chosen before the foundation of the world. We were lost in time but God...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    And therein lies the paradox. Because both predestination and the call of the gospel to the whole world are both true! And that willing is not his will but desire! If God wills none should perish, then none would perish! Yes Gods love and mercy does know no bounds- but you also have to...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Wrong wrong wrong! You are falsely making Romans 8 be circumcision. Teh letter to Romans dealt with many issues, not just circumcision! Paul furhter goes on in that chapter talking about being predestined and justified and glorified! YOu little sermon in a second here is wrong! Wrong...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    Yes and as it says afterwards- that the whole world is guilty! The natural man CANNOT please God! Accepting Jesus as Savior pleases God- How can the unsaved natural man do that if they CANNOT please God! The natural man cannot perceive th ethings of God- How can they understand the gospel and...

    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    and you mistake jesus being the propitiation for all mankinds sin as meaning all have received that atonement! I fully agree that Jesus paid for every single persons sin on the cross! By doing so, He ruled out any other means by which a person can be saved! Jesus death and resurrection is...

    Timing of Eze 37 and 38 pre Trib?

    YOU need to learn what that English word meant in the original language! You will see that there is a human/spiritual antichrist. The perfect counterfeit of the real Jesus. Human mother/ spiritual father (Satan HImself as declared in Gen. 3).

    Why do Catholics…

    If Jesus jumps off a bridge will you? Jesus did not need grace- He was the sinless son of God. You need to learn what grace and mercy mean and not the redefined Romanist definition.
