The truth is that it is both. What God elects we must also choose...what we choose God must also choose. A REALationship has 2 sides.

Actually you believe you are freed from the responsibility for your own actions. So you wish to be seen as an adult yet you wish the irresponsibility of an infant. That is not what Jesus is referring to when He says we must become as children. Did Jesus die to save spoiled brats? This mockery...

\ Here is what the bible actually says... Rom_3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; You cannot be forgiven ahead of time for future sins. Men seek to...

The faith of the few is to believe in the power of the gospel first preached by Jesus and then the apostles. This is not a gospel of a continued bondage to sin....but an overcoming through the filling of the Holy Spirit. :)

Your understanding is a common fable...magic Jesus comes to absolve you to sin as you wish (without trying to of course ;) ) This is totally unbiblical of course.

Is Jesus really what we want Him to be. Your argument shows that you are making Jesus to be as you wish Him to be...then critisize me for making Him harder to reach. What matters is the truth...not your take on it. We are called to walk in the Spirit in order to overcome the flesh...this is not...

I try to not share scriptures unless I think they will be understood. What is the point in quoting what people will always agree with? Everybody agrees with scripture...just only a few understand them. So it is better to hear what people think they are actually saying. We are to fulfill the...

Human reasoning should never trump the truth. One can easily be born again and walk according to the flesh. Esau sold his birthright for a temporal gratification. I think we'll be surprised at how many of us do the same. One can claim to have understanding of the scriptures but we will not be...

Finally!!! Amen!! :)

There's no end to the unreality. Since when does Jesus pull the wool over the eyes of the Father so He cannot see our true condition? It is a human invention that has to make God change instead of us. WE are to change...God changeth not!!!!! Please refrain from inventing schemes that change...

That is what I am trying to point out to you. But you continue with your unreality and religious claiming. For you getting on the bus sounds like a work....so you would rather stand at a bus stop and claim to be on the bus. Enjoy the ride! This is from your viewpoint of unreality. How can my...

You are espousing a heresy called "Triumphalism." We rich white westerners being the uber-menschen that God loves so He makes us rich and fat!!!! Lean a little more to the right and you get the KKK!!! Not a pleasant thought.

The bible says "believe and you will be saved"...not...."believe and then consider yourself saved". The bible is not a self help book. For example...buses go to bus stops. We read that going to a bus stop causes us to be on the bus. But should we consider ourselves on the bus by just standing...

Kudos bro!!! :)

Amen!! The word is the map and the Spirit is the compass. Unless we have both we get seriously lost.

Why are you mixing faith with works!!!! :) LOL

Seeking the Lord is not the same as name it and claim it. Where in the bible does it say that those who claim something will then have it? You'd think the way Jesus speaks of those practicioners of said method (Pharisees) would warn people away from presumptions like these. The truth is that we...

The last scripture you posted destroys your argument. We WILL work either death or life....this is to be hot or cold. The lukewarm claim to be Christians but have no good works. There is no spiritual life in them...they just claim certain scriptures and say they are saved. You will of course...

Where do you get this idea? You are formulating your own reality based on what you understand. Ironically the lukewarm reveal a lack of good works. They feel they are saved to look pretty or something. It is unfortunate that you react to a word without understanding the spiritual context. We are...

This has nothing to do with reality. It is not like God hears us if we get the pronunciation of His name right. We don't apply Jesus' blood to ourselves. God does this. The blood of Christ is for the whole world. By taking this sacrifice for ourselves we become guilty of presumption...claiming...
