Right. God gave us free will to choose. But the choice is between good and evil. This does not explain how evil got into the creation. This happens to be Christianity's problem. Theodicy. The problem of evil.

Did God KNOW lucifer would fall Or Did He CAUSE him to fall? I think you mean the first.

God created everything. But a good God would not create evil. But it exists. So where did evil come from? How did disobedience get into the creature?

How do you know which member to believe?

Good bye CS. Your babbling tires me.

Not a good reason. SEEM to say is not a good reason.

What! So you think that unbelievers don't read the NT? You think they don't understand it? You don't get around much CS. Ben Shapiro is Jewish and he understands the NT better than you do. Jordan Peterson is not Christian and he understands the bible better than you do. Bart Ehrman, who has...

CS, I haven't gone over all the entirety of this threads past couple of pages, but I'll tell you this.... @Eternally Grateful and I don't agree on absolutely everything, but he understands the character of God correctly.... something I cannot say about you. ALL of Christianity believes God to...

I don't see how reformed beliefs could be justifiable when the bible clearly teaches that God is loving, merciful and just. Everything they teach is antitheical to this. Of course there is some truth in every belief system... That's a good way for one to be deceived...by mixing in a little truth.

I agree. I do sometimes worry for their soul. Will God forgive such aggrecious lies about Him? Is this like blaspheming the Holy Spirit?

Haven't read through...but it has to be by personal faith. Simple reason: First of all Hebrews tells us that those of the OT were saved by faith. Second, there was no "church" when Jesus was preaching/teaching. It's even debatable if He began wanting to begin a new church or if this idea came...

What you state is NOT so clear. Even some Protestant theologians believe it's possible that the BROTHERS of Jesus might have been half brothers... same father, different mother. I don't think we'll ever know for sure.

And I wish you would understand what the OP is about instead of spewing your hatred everywhere you go against your very brothers. Learn some church history and then come back and report...

Actually GP, there is NO good news in the Calvinist gospel. Jesus came from heaven to teach us HOW to get to heaven. To show us HOW God predestined from the very beginning how He would allow us into heaven. God knew that Adam would fail and so made provision for that failure. Calvinists believe...

Of course.... and so.... THERE IS NO GOOD NEWS!

Right. So I want to know what IS THE GOOD NEWS. Gospel means good news. What is it??? Is the good news for EVERYONE, or just for a select few? If just for a select few... WHY did Jesus have to die? WHY was the NT written? FOR WHAT REASON....IF God has already determined everything and everyone...

I just posted it. I tagged you in. Still no reply as the the GOOD NEWS..,. of which there is none according to the reformed. (except for those chosen, of course).

@Christian Soldier When are you going to reply to my post no. 1276 and explain to all of us: WHAT IS THE GOOD NEWS OF THE GOSPEL?

You have the interpretations wrong, but I doubt you're willing to change your positions. 1. Re Sinning: If you believe that Exodus 32:32 means that God will blot out all names from the Book of Life, which is your statement, then you haven't understood sinning. Everyone has sinned, and even...

Of course. Read my next post to him but I need my computer. Guess I'll have to explain Christianity 101.
