Kriss Ok Dave lets stop playing games here I know what your doctrine is and I know the Word You are the only one playing games Kriss. Kriss, those were serious and honest questions. Your constantly avoiding them is very revealing. Where we differ here is God knows who the Elect are we do not I...

Thank you Kriss. Ephesians 1:4 "According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love:"What does it mean to be "chosen"?It means that there are certain people that God chosen in the first earth age, to do a task for...

I'm glad these verses are not offensive to you, Kriss. Can you please address them in light of the discussion at hand? Thankyou.Ephesians 1:4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to...

Why does this offend you Kriss?Ephesians 1:4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the...

Kriss, with all due respect, I never mentioned Calvin. If you have an argument against him then i'm sure that there is someone in this forum who you can debate with about him. I quoted scripture. Your saying "Dave why do you continue to listen to men over God ?" does not refute the scripture...

I must be missing something here. I AGREE LOL The passage that Kriss quoted is an excellent example of what this dicussion is seeking to reveal from scripture. The context of that passage tells us that those people were professing faith in Jesus and going through the motions, but He *never*...

At the time of our initial, authentic, God given faith, we are immersed into the Body by Jesus with the Holy Spirit (sealed with the seal of our inheritance). We become one with Him, actually "in Christ". At that same moment, we are imputed with Christ's perfect righteous. God recons us as...

Once saved always saved- "Nope"- Heb. 6:4-6, also- If anyone believes that these people were saved, and then lost their salvation, then, by the context, you must also believe in "once lost, always lost". These people were not saved. Here's an overview that will give you the flow of...

Nice post Robin. I agree that the phrase "once saved always saved" is accurate, but many straw man arguments are read into it. I personally don't like the phrase because it is loved by those who need the straw man to argue against. Only antinomianism believes that after innicial faith, a person...

How does a person know if he was truly sincere when he asked Jesus to be his Savior, thus giving him saving faith? If the Apostle Paul did not have an "assurance of salvation" who are we to say that we do? 1 John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of...

He needs to repent. This link explains.http://www.christianityboard.com/justifica...some-t3607.htmlIf we could lose our salvation, every one of us would. The question is not whether or not one can lose salvation, but whether or not our professed faith is genuine, thereby making our salvation...

I'll save this for another thread. Edit! LOL

Hi goldy(goldy;22167) Great question. If you're referring to the doctrine of Sola Fide (spelling?), we don't believe in this. In a nutshell, we believe you have to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. But then we have to prove this......that's where works come in. It's not an...

Hi goldyDo you believe that we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Jesus Christ alone?God blessDave

A Call to the Cross By Josef Urban It is absolutely imperative that the people of God in these last days obey the call of Christ to a devout and holy life of self-denial and of bearing the cross unto the crucifixion of the flesh with all its' ambitions, lusts, and self-willed desires in order to...
