    How Does The Blood Of Christ Stop Us From Sinning?

    Not unless we allow it to. Joh 6:53-56 Then Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. (54) Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day...

    What is Predetermined?

    Strawman argument which you have invented and I haven't presented. Naughty. There is a clear path of logic and reasoning that links Adam and Eve's eating forbidden fruit to their guilt for doing so, otherwise any penalty for their doing so would be unjust. Rather than prove freewill is...

    How Does The Blood Of Christ Stop Us From Sinning?

    1Jn 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. We know the blood of Christ cleanses us from all sin, but how does it prevent us from sinning? Heb 9:13-14 For if the blood of bulls...

    What is Predetermined?

    Everyone is predestined to have freewill in some things. I didn't choose whether or not to be born and nor did I choose my genetic composition, so no freewill there. Psa 139:13-16 For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb. (14) I will praise You, for I am fearfully...

    What is Predetermined?

    Of course He did because nothing is ever beyond His ability to know and that's why the names of penitents are written in heaven in the Book of Life. Heb 4:12-13 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit...

    What is Predetermined?

    Psa 147:5 Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.

    What is Predetermined?

    It's a favourite ploy of courtroom lawyers, asking a question they already know the answer to. Then if a lie is told, BAM!!! . . . evidence is revealed.

    The Shopping Mall in the Sky.

    There is a certain logic to non-Christians and atheists frequenting Christian internet forums. Whilst some genuinely seek information others derive satisfaction from posts intended to bait and discomfort. I have often found myself helping people who seek out Christians to meet some need but who...

    Prince Andrew

    Opinions differ, but there is evidence the Queen may actually be a genuine Christian.

    The Shopping Mall in the Sky.

    This is a very astute question, I.O.U. The correct answer is no. The Bible teaches that God casts those angels who oppose Him out of Heaven, and only those whom God foreknows will always be 100% faithful to Him are saved for eternal life in heaven. Col 1:21-23 And you, who once were alienated...

    The Shopping Mall in the Sky.

    Here's something I wrote that's related to your inquiry. GOD’s GREAT PLAN Adam sinned because he could, God foreknew he always would. We all sin because we can, God foreknows the heart of man. Only Christ can save from sin, Only He this victory win. God’s goodness leads us to repentance...

    Salvation is by Grace through Faith.

    Hmm. Faither, There's an implication in your question that "today's church" and the early church might be at odds with each other where Biblical doctrine is concerned. No matter since sound doctrine is still available in some churches today. Faith is the conduit through which grace flows from...

    How God Can Witness & Judge Anyone?

    All salvation issues and complaints must be referred to the Department of Divine Foreknowledge.

    How God Can Witness & Judge Anyone?

    Once, when I was attempting to comprehend how big the Universe is, and how it must be in something even bigger, which then has to be in something even bigger, God spoke to me and consisely said, "You don't have to know". The sense I was given is that the exact extent of what we are in is beyond...

    How God Can Witness & Judge Anyone?

    God is the great I AM. existing in eternity with infinite knowledge and power. He can be plural if He wants to, and speak to Himself if He wants to, and certainly imagine all of Creation including human beings, and then create them just as He imagined if He wants to. Piece of cake for God.

    The Shopping Mall in the Sky.

    Part of being a Christian is renouncing all other religions, philosophies and worldviews, but I have noticed a tendency for atheists to apply a logical fallacy that blames God for all the bad things that happen because He could stop them from happening, and then reason that because bad things...

    OSAS But Be Ready Or Else

    Says you, but I agree with the Albert Barnes Commentary on Hebrews 10:38 But if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him - This also is a quotation from Hab_2:4, but from the Septuagint, not from the Hebrew. “Why” the authors of the Septuagint thus translated the passage, it is...
