    The TRUTH About Ukraine & Russia

    The reason that there were only about 40 people on those buses was simply because the UAF did not inform the people that there were buses also sent from Donetsk. The 40 people found them by accident. I am not sure where you get your information to make the claim that the UAF didn't release the...

    NOAH sounds like a good movie

    Outstanding review at that link. Hollywood does this sort of thing all the time from the Lion King to the Matrix. Many films are replete with an esoteric underscore whereby the vast majority will only ever see the esoteric dressing intended for the profane. The most outstanding aspect of that...

    Defending Penal Substitution

    Amended article I wrote over a year ago. Penal Substition Let's peel off the fluff and get to some of the bottom line issues. Point 1. Penal Substitution is a doctrine which was birthed out of the Protestant Reformation when certain Reformers added a Judicial Aspect to the Anselmian...

    Faith in Christ or Faith in our faith.

    Yes of course he is. The flesh will always serve the law of sin and this is why it has to be crucified once and for all where the body of sin is destroyed. It is through dying WITH Christ that we are set free from sin whereby we can then walk according to the Spirit where we no longer fulfill...

    I believe one who deliberately sins in not a Christian.

    Where does heart purity fit into your doctrine? Saved from what? Certainly not sin because your notion of salvation still has "saved sinners in bondage." Your salvation only appears to be "saved from judgement." Your doctrine would clearly support a pedophile confessing their crimes to God...

    I believe one who deliberately sins in not a Christian.

    In Romans 7 Paul is using a grammatical device known as "historical present." He is doing this put emphasis on the point that the law cannot save, rather salvation is through the Spirit. To teach that Paul is speaking of himself in the present as being a carnal wretch whom is still sold under...

    Repentance Vs. Eternal Security

    Calvinism teaches uncondtional eternal security because their premise for salvation is that of a judicial book keeping entry via the death of Christ as a Penal Substitution. Thus in essense the track record of Jesus and the sinner are swapped entailing that all future sins are pre-forgiven...

    Repentance Vs. Eternal Security

    Unconditional eternal security is a false teaching. Salvation is a manifest state as opposed to an abstract position. Those who promote unconditional eternal security preach a salvation that is akin to a "package." Salvation is not a package but is an actual state. Eternal security is true...

    Faith in Christ or Faith in our faith.

    The Bible states... Gal 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. Gal 5:24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. Gal 5:25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 1Pe 4:1 Forasmuch...

    1 Tim 4:10, A Special Salvation for Believers?

    How is the following reconciled with universal salvation? Rev 22:11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. Rev 22:12 And, behold, I come...

    Repentance Vs. Eternal Security

    A truly repentant heart would bring forth restitution would it not? 2Co 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. 2Co 7:11 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it...

    I believe one who deliberately sins in not a Christian.

    Wormwood, I have never made the claim that God does not forgive deliberate sin. The forgiveness of deliberate sin is not the issue here. The issue is in regards to engaging in deliberate sin and remaining justified. The issue is in being in rebellion to God and yet remaining in a reconciled...

    Irenaeus on Free Will and Obedience to God

    I thought this to be an interesting quote. Why? Well because today many people believe that in order to yield to God one must first be born again hence an individual gets saved first and then at a later stage obedience becomes manifest. My opinion is that salvation and obedience are...

    I believe one who deliberately sins in not a Christian.

    Did I ever claim that we can be inwardly pure of our own power? If I didn't state that then why do you bring it up? The outward flesh can still do impure things while a persons spirit strives to be pure? What does that mean? Are you saying that a Christian can engage in fornication whilst...

    I believe one who deliberately sins in not a Christian.

    This is what Jesus taught... Mat 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Mat 5:4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Mat 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Mat 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst...
