How about you g after all of them, beginning with Obama, then Soros , Hillary, Schumer, Pelosi, Comey, Strok, Schiff, Nadler and all others involved in the voter fraud (hundreds). Let's get those employees from Dominion who are running scared, deleting their info. We even want the truck drivers...

I just agreed that the prophets had the Spirit. What you claimed is that God lived in them.

First of all, The Spirit is omnipresent, everywhere. In the Old Testament, The Holy Spirit came upon the prophets and select chosen people . He spoke directly to the prophets, audibly, empowered them, guided them, gifted them with wisdom and knowledge, etc. We see the phrase used often “the...

I was referring to brightfame52, not you. But like You, I do not label myself as part of either camp.

This verse supports my view. You said this was an outward call. God speaks to us inwardly with the exception when He audibly spoke to someone. Prior to Christ, the Holy Spirit did not dwell in the believer as you claim is necessary for an inward call to occur. According to this verse, the...

Thanks. I think I'm dealing with a Calvinist though.

Why would God commission the Church to go out and spread the gospel to everyone (His outward calling) and then only _ in secret _ call the elect inwardly? You might reason, "Because we don't know who they are and He does." No, as everyone hears the outward call, some resist and ignore it, but...

Do you think that God guides the unbeliever, speaks to them,! whether they are His sheep or not?

I don't think that is true. It would be fair to call all men, would it not? The Gospel goes out to the entire world, to Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus and every other false religion - including atheists. We witness and minister to all. Christ and all the Biblical principals have permeated the...

I'm not a Calvinist and I do believe that we are predestined. "For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters; 30 and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He...

I use about seven different versions of the Bible, but one that I use most is the NASB "who, as He already existed in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped," Phil. 2:6 means that Jesus knew that man would not grasp this concept of being equal with God. I...

So you would agree that the prerequisite lies in God's hands for the individual, within His plan for that person? Each person requires God's guidance towards the Word, along with lessons in life, seeds planted by others, invitations, events, all are orchestrated by God and therefore would be...

A brief teaching for those who do not understand or believe in the Deity of Christ and the Trinity I did mention that during the baptism of Jesus, all three were present. Of course this in itself does not mean Jesus is God or the Holy Spirit is, but it is where we all start to understand. It...

Faith comes by the Word. "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast." Eph. 2:8, 9 It is a gift from God so stop thinking that one has to qualify to receive the gift. He gives it to sinners. He...

You are now asking me to draw the line, determine who will go and who will not. You would have to be omniscient to know who gets saved. God will save whomever He chooses. He will draw them with an outward calling and an inward calling, open their eyes and enable them to believe. It's as if you...

NO! The Gospel can be explained in one sentence: That Jesus died for our sins and rose on the third day according to the scriptures. Jesus said if you believe in Me you will be saved. He didn't say you must also grasp all the doctrines of the Bible, including the doctrine of the Trinity - one...

Jesus was the God/man - fully God and fully man (without the sin nature). "who, as He already existed in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped," Phil. 2:6 He didn't stress the fact that He was God. Man couldn't grasp it then and still has problems now. His...

No, slip of fingers, this tiny phone keyboard does it to me all the time.

Your study brings to mind a study of names I learned a long time ago from brilliant scholar, Chuck Missler. The Gospel is amazingly concealed in the meaning of the names from Adam to Noah: Hebrew English Adam = Man Seth = Appointed Enosh =...

My fault, the thread was in "Worthy Christian Forums". I go back and forth and so you really didnt have to change it - fits. Interesting study.
