Confession

[Nancy]

With @Philip James I also say Yep..for sure...that is what it is all about.

@GodsGrace ALL to be saved, not just a chosen few.

Agreed. But when someone says that God chooses us, that's different and calvinistic.


@Nancy understands this and originally questioned it way back.

you have a good memory my friend...I don't even remember mentioning it...I feel like a kid in a candy store on this forum, lol...I start to reply to someone, then something else catches my eye and I lose the post I wanted to reply on! I miss allot too as I can't tell which ones I've already read!!!! lol

 

[Nancy]

That's Christ in me.

I think my humor is of the world though. I doubt I will be sharing such humor in Heaven where everything and everyone is perfect and good.

 

[GodsGrace]

Agreed.
But no one is perfect here!

Will continue on Corinthians tomorrow.
For now it's Good Night.

It's late here. Should I explain it to you tomorrow?

 

[Nancy]

Bless me GodsGrace for I have sinned......

"Bless me GodsGrace for I have sinned......"and, it has been two weeks since my last confession...I lied, I hit my sister, I chewed gum in school....priest says: do 10 hail Mary's, 5 our Fathers, The Act of Contrition so on and so on.
when I was a child, this is what it as all about...trying to think up "sins" to be able to say something, even though, I had no clue what real sin was.

Oh yes, you are far from where I a...must remember that! Yes please do explain whenever you have time...have a good night!
God loves you!

Hi PJ
Im sorry if I spoke for you but i knew what @Nancy was asking.

IOW,,,when you say...
God chooses us...

What do you mean exactly?

Haha , do you ask any easy questions?

There are so many ways to answer that.. And would certainly derail the thread...

But i will say that from one perspective, one could say that God chooses all men..
'we love because He first loved us'

Does God choose specific persons to be saved?

I would think so, yes. He certainly chose Abraham, and Israel, and the 12 and Paul....to name a few..

Or does He desire all to be saved? (Based on His conditions, of course).

I dont think its a question of one or the other... I think both apply..

Perhaps we should discuss this in a new thread?

Peace!

Hi Nancy,
Here's what happened...

In post no. 181 PJ made a comment that sounded calvinistic to you...
Here's what he said:
Indeed, and all are welcome to come to the wedding feast of the Lamb...
But,
'no one can come to me unless the Father draw him'

Peace!

So you questioned him about it in post no. 218.
Here's what you said:
Do you believe Jesus was God? Then when He said as He was ascending into Heaven..."I will draw all men unto me..."

I picked up on what you meant and the rest is history!

I'm cueing PJ in because we're talking about him.

Also, I'm going to start a thread on this.

Ty GG,
I think your new thread will be busy!
