So, does this mean you are telling me that you believe Hebrews 6:6 is not referring to true repentance, PinSeeker? It seems that you are. If that is what you're trying to tell me then I know that I can't take you seriously on this issue. Only extreme doctrinal bias could lead someone to think...

Please show me where Paul said that "even we ourselves" can't separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. How does Paul not contradict that in Hebrews 6:4-6 when he explicitly indicated there that saved people (people who have repented and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit)...

I didn't say otherwise. God wants us to love everyone. Jesus commands us to love our enemies (Matthew 5:44, Luke 6:27,35).

How does that mean I use the OT to interpret Revelation 20? It doesn't. Please think before you post.

LOL. How can you know if you are one or not when you know very little about it? LOL. That isn't saying much since you barely understand my view at all as evidenced by the fact that you misrepresent it constantly. It's pointless to claim that something is wrong when you don't even understand it.

LOL. That's certainly how you are coming across. So, you are just denying that there is such thing as what some of us call "Spiritual Israel" then? Paul referred to Spiritual Israel in the following passage and called it "The Israel of God". Galatians 6:15 Neither circumcision nor...

You still can't read. I was referring specifically to the Israelites of Paul's day. Are you purposely trying to change the subject or am I right that you can't read? Can you tell me how you interpret this passage: Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according...

Yet, all people are expected to know God, glorify Him and be thankful to Him (Romans 1:18-20). So, what do you make of that in light of your understanding of Jeremiah 17:9? I think you may be reading too much into that verse because if you think it means that people can't help but be like the...

Can you please learn how to read? I didn't say anything about Gentiles. I was talking about how Paul differentiated between the Israelites of his time and put them into two groups. One group of Israelites was the remnant of those who were saved "according to the election of grace" and the other...

He was not talking about people who only heard and learned about the truth of God's Word. He was talking about people who had repented, which is why he said if they fell away it was impossible to renew them to repentance again. That's not something he would say about people who had not repented...

Learn how to read. I didn't say anything about a Gentile remnant. I'm saying that the remnant were Israelite believers which Paul called "the election". They were saved "according to the election of grace". Israelite unbelievers were "the rest" who "were blinded". Do you disagree with that? If...

I'm quite surprised that you wouldn't understand that you can fully agree with what those verses say and still believe that someone can lose their faith and fall away. Verses like those speak specifically about how God is unchanging, not people. We can be sure that God will not change His mind...

Paul includes Gentiles as being fellowheirs of the promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Galatians 4:28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.

Eternal land? How will it survive this: 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 11 Seeing...

What does Hebrews 11:8-16 say they were looking for? Does it say they were looking for LAND or something better, such as a heavenly country and a city with foundations whose builder and maker is God?

Repentance and salvation is an individual thing, not a national thing. Each individual person is responsible to repent, not the entire nation collectively. You are contradicting all of scripture by turning repentance and salvation into a corporate thing rather than a responsibility that each...

That is not what Paul said. Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace. 6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more...

Right. It's only the individuals who were part of "the rest" who "were blinded" that were enemies. It's ludicrous to claim the entire nation were enemies. No, the remnant of believers were clearly not enemies.

You are equating yourself with God here. Not a good idea. That is your INTERPRETATION and OPINION of what Paul wrote, not a fact. Stop equating yourself with God. You are including even the remnant of believers as being enemies by saying that Paul was talking about Israel as a whole there. That...

Where does God call unbelieving hypocrites like the Pharisees and scribes "His people"? Paul indicated that the remnant of believers in Israel that God foreknew were God's people, not the rest like the Pharisees and scribes who were blinded and cut off. Neither. You are misinterpreting the...
