    Regeneration before or after saving faith

    amen God is not going to give his gift to people he KNOWS are going to leave in unbelief, because they never had true faith to begin with, He is not going to be mocked. Because he can not be fooled.

    when he chose pharaoh, Did he force pharaoh to keep changing his mind, or did Pharoah do what he already desired to do. and God just made sure he was raised up to power When the 30 year old man takes the 12 year old girl and forcibly rapes her. Is it because God force him to do this, or did...

    yep But it does not mean they can not understand what God is saying to them when God draws them. In fact Romans 1 says the lost not only know who God is, and what he has done through creation, thus being without excuse. They also understand that the sin they love rightly condemns them.

    Romans 2:14 for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves,

    Regeneration before or after saving faith

    yeah Actually I do Your right, because they can't. Thats why God comes to them, and sends us out to them. So he can draw them to himself. Then the words whoever believe in him are meaningless. The words call out to him are meaningless. The words chose this day who you will follow are...

    1 John 2: 18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with...

    we lose faith because the one we place our faith in becomes untrustworthy can you name something God is untrustworthy in? Something he should not be trusted with, because he continually fails us, to the point we can possibly lose faith?

    Regeneration before or after saving faith

    if a gift can be given back, the giver is insincere when I give a gift to my child. its hers. Giving it back would be impossible because I would never take it back. I paid for it with my hard earned money and love.

    Regeneration before or after saving faith

    No, I am eternally grateful god who saved a wretched soul as myself. who is totally unworthy. if God gave us what we deserve. We would not be sitting here having this conversation. We would all be in hell. Maybe that's a topic you should look up, and then try to humble yourself with this...

    1. I never said they were 2. I disagree. Biblical calvinism is correct in many part. but seriously lacking in others. Actually both from what I see are full of holes and problems. Although I do agree. Calvinists are my brothers and sisters. Because their faith is in Christ. They just mix up...

    Once again Bro. Listen to yourself. Do you realize how bad and off base this sounds? Its like a person realizes they are doomed They are broke, completely bankrupt. Homeless. have nothing to cover their nakedness. Have no capacity for Joy, And a person who is perfect love, Perfect Joy Perfect...

    so the 5 points counter to calvinism's tulip are not correct. He did not follow those 5 points? If we depend on one work to help us be saved we are depending on to many works. Paul condemned the jews in Galatia because they tried to depend on one work (circumcision)

    Regeneration before or after saving faith

    Yet all those things you just said (remaining in him, working hard not to fall away, falling for false teachings etc etc) are works which they claim must be done to earn salvation. What about eternal life? What about John, who said they left us but were never of us? If I gift can be taken...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    listen! The author of scripture wrote what Jesus spoke in Greek. and it was inspired from the Holy Spirit, meaning the HS himself authorised the greek word used for peter and rock. And in that word. It NEVER means a large boulder God used the greek for a reason, because it is a more indepth...

    Fall from Grace--The Teaching that a person can fall from grace and lose his salvation. Do Armenians teach this? Did Arminian himself believe this?

    Regeneration before or after saving faith

    yeah, I mean there was no possibly man could have just chosen to follow God and never walk away like 2/3 of the angels did. God had to make sure man fell. so he could send his son to die that horrific death, otherwise, creation would have been out of order I mean that was never going to happen...

    There you have it folks. God created evil, and not only created it, He ordains, or uses it to enforce his own desires.. God did not force Assyria to destroy the northing kingdom. Assyria wished to do this on their own. What God did is REMOVED his protection of his people Israel. and ALLOWED the...

    Regeneration before or after saving faith

    this makes no sense God did not DECREE or ORDAIN the fall. He allowed it to happen. because otherwise, he would have to make robots. and remove all free will from his creation You can not have a relationship if there is not freedom to chose. There is no love possible..
