Featured Successful Evangelism

I am a Particular Baptist holding to all 5 points of TULIP. But Calvin was not a baptist and was wrong on so much I cannot, in good conscience, append his name to what I believe.

But you already knew that and just wanted an excuse to contradict me no matter what I posted.

I have searched and can't find where being a contrarian is a spiritual gift.

 

What's the point in obeying God? Really?

I have never had a Christian ask me that question. This is a first.

 

1 Corinthians 3:1-6 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ. I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able,
3 for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men?
4 For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not mere men?
5 What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, even as the Lord gave opportunity to each one.
6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth.

Read man!!!

1 Corinthians 3:1-6 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ. I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able, for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men? For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not mere men?

Paul preached to and saw these people come to Christ. He could not, however, speak to them as anything but infants in Christ. He gave them milk and not solid food for they were not yet able to receive it. Apollos watered what Paul had planted. Some are given as preachers, some as teachers, but none without fruit.

You have misinterpreted the passage. It is not about evangelism but about spiritual growth.

 

That is our emphasis, to "win some" to "save some". Paul preached so that he "might have some fruit" not just out of mechanical obedience.

 

Because they are not saved until they are born again. It is the preaching of the gospel which the Father uses to draw them to Christ.

Of course you did.

So, you think every person on earth has already heard the gospel preached?

I don't know why you chafe at obeying God by preaching the gospel to everybody. But you need to carefully and prayerfully examine your heart.

 

Please post a quote from me indicating any such opinion regarding Calvin. He believed in infant baptism. I don't. Is that what you mean by making the accusation that I don't like to admit? How about the place of magistrates? Is that another place you accuse me of not liking to admit?

And where have I ever criticized the WCF or that I am not wiling to admit when it is right?

Why the personal attacks? Nothing truthful and honest to offer?

 

We have been through this. You reject that all those the Father draws to Christ, Christ will raise up on the last day.

So any further discussion is pointless until you accept what Christ clearly said.

 

Yes, I do know you stalk me and post silly one-liners to most of my posts.
