The Invitation To Heaven

SBG once again blames God for mans sin.
He then proclaims that God needs to do as SBG feels he should in order to be fair and kind .
That is why no communication is taking place

 

Define Romans 1:18-32, Romans 2:1-11, Romans 3:10-18 and then look at Romans 5:8.

It's talking about and to believers...
those who have come to love the Lord.

For His grace and mercy towards them.
Because He first loved them ( 1 John 4:19 ).

Really.
And so were His children, before He changed them from the inside.

That is what God says...I'm only repeating His words, SBG.

If I may ask, why do you reject them, since you claim to be saved by grace?
Can you not see what His grace is?

We love Christ because He saved us from disaster, my friend.
It is no more complicated than that.

 

God is talking to the chosen people of Israel. They have a covenant with God, made at Mt Sinai, whereby God gives them laws and they agree to follow these laws.
Joshua is asking Israel if they wish to follow this covenant of laws or follow a different path. They (Israel) declare that they will follow the law. Joshua proceeds to tell them that they cannot and will not keep the law, even though they declare they will. In saying they choose God and His law, the people of Israel stand condemned under the law.

So, unless you intend to save yourself under the law, I suggest you don't reference Joshua 29 as a passage for salvation.

 

Accusation #4.

 

@SavedByGrace :

Time for me to exit this thread.
As much as I'd like to continue this, we really have been through much of this to a great extent.
We disagree, and that is where it will stand unless God changes it.

I'm sorry, sir, but the contents of Romans 1, Romans 2 and Romans 3 are, for the most part, where I get the answers to our heart condition before God.
The Psalms, Proverbs and certain places in the "Gospels" ( Matthew, Mark, Luke and John ) are as well.
God's salvation starts there and it's not an invitation in the sense of us being willing to accept it...

In addition,
To me, you simply won't accept that God decides to save some and not others ( Romans 9, Romans 11 ), and that it is His choice ( Ephesians 1:4-5, 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14, Psalms 65:4 ), not ours, that saves us.


I wish you well, as always,
and may He bless you in many ways, my friend.

 

The redeemed of the Lord!

 

I did answer the passage actually. But what I am not willing to do is take words, verses and passages out of context and ignore the rest of Scripture in order to see your position.

 

Same paul stated to us that while lost, was at war with God!

 

They are in rebellion against God, as are living for themselves and their own ways!

 

"we" and "us" refer to the elect, chosen by God.

 

Potter and the clay.....

 

Indeed, as Paul had in mind here the redeemed only, and not all humanity!

 

Again, all of us before saved by God are in that state against God!

 

No, more that he can answer it as should be, but not as you want it to be!
