    JUSTIFICATION: Before God or Before Man? Examining James chapter 2

    Dan here is attempting to teach me that water baptism of John is natural not spiritual. Also baptism in the name of Jesus Acts 2:38 would also be natural baptism not spiritual baptism. This shows Dan's ignorance of the Scriptures. This is why, a major reason why, he thinks water baptism does...

    JUSTIFICATION: Before God or Before Man? Examining James chapter 2

    I'm not confused at all on Biblical faith. Saving faith is an action. Dan's faith is dead. It has no obdient works. Hebrews 3:18-19, - and to whom sware he that they should not enter into His rest but to those who did not obey - so we see they could not enter in because of unbelief What is...

    JUSTIFICATION: Before God or Before Man? Examining James chapter 2

    Personal definition? It's not my fault you are ignorant of faith and works in the Bible. These accusations are from a position of ignorance not knowledge.

    JUSTIFICATION: Before God or Before Man? Examining James chapter 2

    Alright, you think Jesus and John the Baptizer taught no water baptism for the forgiveness of sins. That's your religions attempt to get all,works out of salvation. Cant be done as faith itself is a work, John 6:28-29 Mark 1:4, - John did baptize in the wilderness and preach the baptism of...

    I appreciate your honesty.

    The Doctrines of Grace

    First you tried to prove with the new testament that prayers for the dead is Biblical. Now you are changing your story and claiming you did not claim prayers for the dead is in the new testament. Very dishonest. This is foolishness. Listen very carefully to BreadofLife's logic Since the Bible...

    The Doctrines of Grace

    I'm not excluding the Jews or even faithful gentiles that died during the old testament. I simply was not discussing them. The new testament teaches that physical Israel, those of ethnic Hebrew origin. Are no longer Gods chosen people. All those saved under the new testament gospel of Jesus...

    The Doctrines of Grace

    Acts 20:28, - therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers to shepard the church of God which Jesus purchased with His own blood Jesus had not shed His blood before the cross , therefore His church had not yet been established. Only...

    JUSTIFICATION: Before God or Before Man? Examining James chapter 2

    Here again you contradict yourself by admitting there is something man must do to be saved. You condemn anything man has to do. You demand Jesus does it all and we are not trusting in Jesus if we have to do something to be saved. Jesus' work on the cross paid it all. Nothing else needs to be...

    JUSTIFICATION: Before God or Before Man? Examining James chapter 2

    Right, so you contradict your man made doctrine once again by admitting there is something man must do to be saved. You're making a mess out of the Scriptures and digging yourself deeper and deeper into a hole Acts 16:30-33, - and brought them out and said Sirs what must I do to be saved - and...

    JUSTIFICATION: Before God or Before Man? Examining James chapter 2

    Faith alone gospel is created by cherry picking verses that mention faith or believe and ignoring passages that contradict their no obedience to God for salvation heresy. John taught exactly as I do. That is that faith has action. That action is obedience to what God tells us to do. John never...

    Unfortunately Electedbyhim is not aware he refuted his own limited atonement doctrine by teaching exactly what the passage says, 1John 2:2. Very good work at pointing it out to him.

    The Doctrines of Grace

    John said Christ shed His blood for the whole world and I believe what Gods word says. It's that simple. It only gets complicated when your churches doctrine teaches against what the word of God plainly says. So, good for you for believing what John says! Honest hearts can see the truth when...

    Sorry but I'm feeling puny. Need to rest. I'll respond later if you want to continue.

    No, I used what you told me to interpret the verse. That was not my interpretation it was yours. 1John 2:2 By what you said then all the world in this passage are the elect to be.

    The Doctrines of Grace

    1John 2:2 says He died for the WHOLE World You are telling me those not yet converted that become converts are the elect. Well sure, that is true. So if we apply the unconverted to becoming the elect then... - He Himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins(elected) and not only our...

    I'm glad you are asking questions. I dont know what you mean by "earthly church". There is the church in the wilderness that was an earthly kingdom, the old physical Jewish kingdom. Christ established His church when He died on the cross. That one church, Ephesians 4:4 is the church He spoke...

    The Doctrines of Grace

    You just admitted that you could be going against your gods will. My belief that calvinist' never hold to their doctrine is 100% correct. We are commanded to do the will of the Father, Matthew 7:21, - Not everyone who says to Me Lord, Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven but  only the one who...

    The Doctrines of Grace

    You just admitted that, - but also for the whole world is in general. That proves it is not speaking specifically of the elect. 1John 2:3, - and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins(saved, elect) and not for ours only(saved,elect) but also for those of the whole world In general you...
