JesusFan, Thank you for your ministry on this site and your work for our Lord and Savior. I have not read any other post except your OP. I myself am a little more close to the vest here which isn't a surprise since I don't think anyone has it all right. I would say that I think ...

Greetings JonC. Grace and hope to you through our Lord Jesus Christ. I would first like to say that I am not commenting on "where does wrath go" or commenting based on the others in this thread. Since wrath is tied to the law I am focusing on what you said in the quote above regarding the...

Thank you KenH for presenting this for debate. When I first read this, I came away with one conclusion. But after reading it again, I'm not sure my first blush take away was correct. Trying to break down Kenny's quote, it seems that the overarching topic is... If I restrict what Kenny says...

Thank you for your reply Van. Peace to you brother. My apologies if that is the case. I assure you I am not intentionally ignoring anything. If I pass over your point it is because I missed it, for got to address it, or don't fully understand it (I am a little slow sometimes). Do you have...

Greetings Van. Thank you for your thoughtful and kind post. I must say, I'm impressed. You seem to be the first that I have encountered that brings up this nuance (although most I debate about this verse are probably more Calvinists). That is, [peoples] is an added translator word that is...

Greetings again Dave. Peace and hope to you and yours. Regarding your above quote... I have found that this is a common modern day approach to the debate of Supralapsarianism verses Infralapsarianism. Not only by those that appose Supralapsiariansim but by those that advocate...

Greetings JohnC. Many thanks for your contribution to this site and keeping it running. 1John 2:2 is a good example of a reference to the multiple intentions of Christ, imo. It seems to be clearly speaking about what Christ did for those that believe AND clearly refers to all mankind without...

Dave, greetings to you brother. I have asserted on this forum before that I believe that the Supralapsarian position is mistaken and therefore false. Beza originally used the Greek dictum, “that which is first in intention is last in execution...that which is last in execution is first in...

Thank you for you time Van. I appreciate you trying to impart some wisdom to me. Regarding the quote above, you are right. There are a lot of topics going on. So let's try and narrow them down so we can get into the weeds and drill down. Let's start with your interpretation of John 12:32...

Greetings again and thank you for your reply. Ahh, salt right out of the gate. Glad to be back. :) Starting from the end of your post and then moving forward. To this, it would seem we agree. Thank you for the clarification. You are here asserting that you are a not a Diest. Got it. The...

Greetings Van. I'm back from my wedding anniversary weekend. Made some good memories. I hope your weekend was a blessed one. To be more precise, at least in what I think the Bible teaches, I do think that God has made the first move through His Cosmic Triumph of the Powers of Darkness and...

Good morning to you Van. I hope you had a good week. I myself am heading to a four day anniversary weekend. So I won't be able to respond to anything (isn't that perfect). As with most others I respond to, I agree with a lot of what you wrote in your OP but hold a different stance on some...

Greetings brother. God blesses in ways even unseen. So I am doing well. I think we are :) Agreed. Sin produces death, the power of sin is death, the sting of death is sin. This is without the law, thus, it is lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness. Agreed. The law only condemns, makes guilty...

Greetings JonC. Hope you are enjoying your day. Many blessing to you. The only law that the Scripture would seem to have presented as being transgressed was the law of "thou shall not eat" (Gen 2:17, 3:1, 3:3). Could one look at the Moral Law (by this I specifically mean the Ten...

Greetings to you JonC. May God bless those that seek Him. I like how you present how you are thinking through it. It also helps with my understanding of your thought process. Before I give any responses, I agree that Paul may at times be referring to different laws. Looking at your timeline...
