Nice, thanks for that!See what you are saying in the messenger of satan sent, served Paul not the other way around...in keeping Paul from being exalted above measure. Judas also in John 17:12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
But was this only in the NT ...consider Job. Many more OT passages...and even in the garden: Romans 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
He doesn't understand the Gospel or Biblically sound doctrine otherwise demeaned as "Calvinism." You will never get him to substantiate any of his claims or offer Biblical evidence other than his claims that a passage says something not there. It's like a no trick pony brother.You have shown no capacity to understand Calvinism. What you ramble about is not the teaching at all.
I know, I know...it doesn't set well, but see post #56So that's a yes, God is the Author of sin?
God by His Holy Spirit empowers sinners to sin greater sins?
I can't say I agree with that!
Much love!

God justifies only those ungodly who repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. And within humanity that will be a minority.Are you saying that God does not justify the ungodly?
None who are truly converted lose their eternal salvation.
Are you saying that God does not justify the ungodly?
Yes. But Joel 2:28 is about the outpouring, not justification. Why do you ask?
I speaking of "works" in the sense of Ephesians 2, "not of works lest any man should boast".
Your emotions apparently have you blinded from being able to perceive that "all" means all.
Only that the apostles were men God knew would endure to the end, even unto death. But we must also endure to the end, and cannot take it for granted as some today do.
Do you realize that the words justify and justification mean the same thing? Now please reread what I posted and reconsider your response. Try again IOW.

And...
Isaiah 45:7
"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things."
I thought you meant the post before that post, LoL. Yes, justification from justify. What is your point? Joel 2:28 is about the outpouring, not justification. You seem to be suggesting that the two are one in the same.
Btw, sorry about the late reply. Was reading a long message.
Yes, I know. Same thing as I was referring to; works of the Mosaic law. I don't think that not abusing the church constitutes a "work" as described by Paul.
I divide things between faith - reliance on what Jesus has done - and works - describing things I do, including behavior and lifestyle.
Much love!
