    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    Where you think Phil 1:29 came from if not from the context of scripture. Should I find it in the context of a comic book article

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    Sorry friend an evil tree cannot bring forth good fruit, thats what you are advocating. John the Baptist knew that repentance was a good fruit , so he challenged the pharisees calling them serpents Matt 3:7-8 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said...

    Faith # 3

    Faith cometh by hearing of the Word of God! Rom 10:17 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Now a great many appeal to this, but its doubted that its really understood by them. Faith comes by Hearing the Word of God or the Word of Christ, or the Word of Truth...

    Understanding God's sovereignty

    You act like it. Everything He did Glorified the Father, God is well pleased in Him. Yet you have yet to admit for some strange reason that His Death for sin Glorified God, you seem to want to seperate things, like His faithfulness did, but His dying for sin didnt. Why was the Son of God...

    What do you think Phil 1:29 is if not the word of God ? The morning newspaper ?

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    How does a child of disobedience with a disobedient nature all the sudden change into a child of obedience by their own freewill ? Its like saying a evil tree with evil fruit can choose to change into a good tree with good fruit. Read Matt 7:17-18 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good...

    Understanding God's sovereignty

    Its wierd that a person rejects the fact that God was Glorified by Christs defeat of sin and death.

    Again to believe in Christ is something that has to be given, otherwise man cant do it Jn 6:44,65

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    Unless a person is of God [saved] they cannot hear the Gospel and unless a person has a new nature, they cannot obey God period. See by nature we are children of disobedience Eph 2:2-3 you cant choose against your nature. Like when the Prophet wrote Jer 13:23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin...

    So Im going to conclude you reject the premise that Christs Death for sinners Glorified God

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    Well when He comes to us He saves us, duh He is a Saviour. Lk 19:10 10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. What did He tell Zacchaeus Lk 19 8-9 8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have...

    You resist scripture. Believing in Christ is something given, ts not in man to do it naturally Phil 1:29 29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    Yes it does, one must not only hear the Gospel but obey the Gospel Rom 10:16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? The natural man cannot do either . How many times do you need to see what Jesus said, who is it that hears the words of...

    Why you dont want to acknowledge that Christs Death for Sin Glorified God

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    Furthermore, it must be given a person to believe on Christ, he cannot do it otherwise Phil 1:29 29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    The unsaved, not of God cannot hear to be saved. Here who Jesus says hears to be saved Jn 8:47 47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill !

    Its not my logic, its the word of God, man by nature is a child of disobedience or of unbelief. See its natural for man by nature to be an unbeliever, or disobedient, thats why theyre called the children of disobedience Eph 2:2 disobedience is their parent.

    Understanding God's sovereignty

    He act like Christs faithfulness/obedience had nothing to do with the Cross for the sins of His People. Thats the main reason He came into the world. He said once Jn 12 27-28 27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this...

    Understanding God's sovereignty

    Was He faithful here dying for sins of the people ? Heb 2:17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.

    Understanding God's sovereignty

    Was Christ being a propitiation for sins Glorifying to God ? Yes or No ? Wasn't His Faithfulness part of His going to the Cross to die for sin or no ? So you dont even make sense.
