Strong evidence the Bible gives for free will/ free moral agency. Revelation 22:17, - And the Spirit and the bride say come, and let him who hears say Come. And let him who thrists come! WHOEVER DESIRES let him take the water of life FREELY. Joshua 22:16, - Thus the whole congregation of the...

Do you not know this verse is figurative language? Do you really think these are literal children being spoken of? Do you know of any babies born with teeth? Do you know any new born babies born that can speak a language? Do you know any new born babies that can speak a language and understand...

Anyone who teaches mankind is born totally wicked depraved sinners is spreading false teaching from false teachers like John Calvin. Psalm 51:5 NKJV, -Behold I was brought forth in inquity, And in sin my mother conceived me. Who's sin? The babies sin or David's mothers sin? Calvinism...

Behold, teaching salvation with no commandments is ANTI - gospel. If no commandments are required by God, then salvation is unconditional as John Calvin taught. Behold, it is contradictory to Jesus' gospel and impossible to be saved with no commandments involved. 1John 3:23-24, - And this is...

No, why are they saved? Because their faith in the Messiah returned! What if they died before their faith returned Dan? That's something you need to ponder. Again we both know their hardened hearts were softened by seeing with their own eyes. But you are claiming they were never in a lost...

I believe His word do you? Mark 16:15-16, - he that believeth and is baptized will be saved; he that believeth not will be condemned. Where did Jesus preach saved by belief only and no obedience to His commandments? Also, Where does the Bible teach obeying or doing Gods will is meriting...

Ephesians 2:8-9, Where and How were the Ephesians saved?

Yes, Did Abraham do works of obedience in Genesis 12, 13, 14, 15 before God accounted His faith as righteousness?

I never said that. You are confused

Faith alone did not account Abraham as righteous, no way. God commanded him to do things and because Abraham had faith in God he obeyed. That is Biblical saving faith. Just believing what God says but dis-obeying His commandments cannot save. The faith that saves is the faith that obeys...

That's not the example of Abraham's faith. He did obey Gods commandments before God accounted His faith as righteousness. Your teaching is not Biblical faith.

Again, so according to you. If Abraham only believed what God tells him but rebelled against God by not leaving his homeland, not sacrificing his son Isacc. That is according to you saving faith. Or faith without obedience to God. James 2:20, - but do you want to know O foolish man that faith...

If Abraham only believed God but did not leave his homeland, then God would have never accounted Abraham's faith as righteousness. Saving faith in the old and new testaments has always been a faith that obeys God.

No, you need to study your old testament. Genesis 12 Abraham believed and obeyed Gods commandments. Genesis 15:6 God accounts Abraham's faith as righteousness. That is not faith alone and no obedience. God said Abraham's faith was accounted righteousness because he did not have faith only, he...

Read Genesis 12 to Genesis 26. That will explain that Abraham was justified by an obedient faith. God never justified Abraham because he believed what he said. He was accounted righteous because He believed and obeyed God. Hebrews 11:8, - by faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to...

That's vague. Be specific of what you believe God requires of us to receive His grace. If you say we must do something, that goes against the theology that God does everything man does nothing.

Ephesians 2:8-9. Explain where and how the Ephesians were saved? Obedience is not saving ourselves without Gods grace. As Ernest T. Bass has asked, where in the Bible does it say obeying Gods will is a work of merit?

Jesus said yes, Hebrews 5:8-9, - and having been perfected, Jesus became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him.

Never said, baptism in Jesus name is not found in the new testament as you wrongly accused me. I said I've never found "this doctrine" i.e. water baptism in Jesus' name in the NT for those who are already saved.

I know I never said that. Quote me saying no passage of baptism in the name of Jesus Christ. You are either making false accusations against me or don't pay attention and are careless what you say about others. Which one is it? I'll be expecting an apology if you are a man of integrity.
