Exactly, dip the finger and sprinkle. The tip of the finger or half of the finger? Surely some will argue.

I agree, both were iconic figures.

By reason alone, men do not come back from the dead. Many times throughout the OT men reasoned among themselves and the L-rd pitied them. The light of man or their church is not the Logos. You are now ignored, Pelagian, apostate RCC. Go back to the 1st grade of New converts. Leave theology to...

Do you ever sometimes want to say not even G-d can save that man? Come on be honest! Or is there a different issue. Does somebody claim to be saved and reject Soli Deo Gloria? If so, have you ever wanted to say G-d could not save that man only that man could save himself! Come on be honest...

Synergism vs. Monergism.

I agree, the offer is universal, but if I am not mistaken, you're alluding to Justification (atonement)? Sincere question.... Was the offer irrefusable? What must have been missing? I can only suggest regeneration and why some seed falls on good soil and others take no root in or on rocky...

Another good reference is by Jonathan Edwards, his sermon, "In the hands of an angry G-d".

Could you imagine for example, if a General of Armies denied any accountability or responsibility for his troops? This role also extends down to our marriages, as the head of the marriage each man is accountable and responsible (see discourse of Paul on the head of the church the bride of...

Another way to look at the atonement and propitiation of Jesus is as our Covenant head. He is accountable and responsible as the head of our covenant. Anybody who has served in the military understands this role as Covenant head. Likewise, Jesus does not simply bear the accountability and...

Some thoughts, G-d is Holy and holy is the summation of all his characteristics and attributes. G-d cannot for example forgive at the expense of His justice, because G-d is not simply just He is Holy-Just, God is not righteous He is Holy-righteous. G-d is not love He is Holy-love. Holy should...

Every covenant has a sign, seal, and mark throughout Scripture. The seal has never pointed to the flesh of mankind (even circumcision pointed back to the faith of Abraham and his justification) but to the promises of G-d. The seal is like any University or Seminary diploma which guarantees the...

I encourage you to study those passages, whenever, the free will offering is mentioned (not by compulsion of the law"). If I may offer a recent write up by myself: Why does mankind want to believe Satan? - The school of Isaiah Consider, what you mean by free will. Whether or not choice, or the...

Would you rather the programming of the World in contrast? You're addressing a computer geek and his analogy. Are your better off transformed according to the World? It is easier, the World will love you. And I'm sure many love your response.

If you're speaking on behalf of Baptist, then I won't address the lack of theological understanding. If you took time to address your own statement as if by somebody else, I'm sure you'd come up with a response, hopefully from Scripture.

You can choose not to sin, ability on the other hand is a different topic. The Gospel of Grace (Calvinism) encourages us not to sin or become complacent in sin, but to persevere to the last day. The Gospel in this way encourages us towards holiness and righteousness, and not theological fatalism...
