    Romans 9

    No my friend, that is what the text actually says, we unlike you believe it! For Evangelism or for Mature Audiences Only? There is a prevalent opinion that says that Calvinism should be, if it is discussed at all, reserved for more mature Christians, not taught to new converts, and certainly...

    Some Thoughts on Predestination

    These are very fine quotes based on the teaching of scripture. We can all rejoice with these saints who have gone before us, and marvel at our great salvation, that has been accomplished and applied for us.

    Some Thoughts on Predestination

    J.L>Dagg ]The doctrine of predestination teaches that no event comes to pass, which is not under the control of God; and that it is so ordered by him as to fulfil his purpose. If it would thwart his purpose, the event is prevented; or if, in part only it would conduce to his purpose, only so far...

    Some Thoughts on Predestination

    “Predestination to life is the everlasting purpose of God, whereby (before the foundations of the world were laid) He has continually decreed by His counsel, secret to us, to deliver from curse and damnation those whom He has chosen in Christ out of mankind, and to bring them by Christ to...

    Some Thoughts on Predestination

    2]Predestination means our salvation is eternally grounded in a sovereign, good God, therefore, our sufferings, sorrows, persecutions, and defeats are not an accident. God is not taken off guard when we suffer. As Spurgeon put it, “All the hounds of affliction are muzzled till God sets them...

    Some Thoughts on Predestination

    Clearly things cannot occur in God's universe, the occurrence of which is displeasing to him. He does not stand helplessly by, while they occur against his wish. Whatever occurs has been foreseen by him from all eternity, and it succeeds in occurring only because its occurrence meets his wish...

    Paul's Determination

    7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then they which be of faith are...

    here again, Zanchius helps us; But the doctrine of predestination, absolute, free, unconditional predestination, here steps in and gives God His own. It lays the axe to the root of human boasting, and cuts down (for which reason the natural man hates it) every legal, every independent, every...

    Now what is predestination but the determining will of God? I defy the subtlest semi-Pelagian in the world to form or convey a just and worthy notion of the Supreme Being without admitting Him to be the great cause of all causes else, Himself dependent on none, who willed from eternity how He...

    ibid; "For the elect's sake those days shall be shortened" (Matthew 24.), and ibid, "If it were possible, they should deceive the very elect," where, it is plain, Christ teaches two things: "Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world"...

    ibid; How can this be accounted for? Only on the single principle of peremptory predestination flowing from the sovereign will of God. No wonder, then, that our Lord concludes that chapter with these remarkable words, "I thank Thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because Thou hast hid these...

    ibid After observing that the reprobates perish wilfully, the apostle, by a striking transition, addresses himself to the elect Thessalonians, saying, "But we are bound to give thanks unto God always for you, brethren, beloved of the Lord, because God hath, from the beginning, chosen you to...

    The Bible Teaches our Repentance and Faith must be credited by God to access His grace.

    In the Bible it is always by or through faith, never is it BECAUSE of faith

    You are speaking of a different God??? Mal.3 describes the God who exists;6 For I am the Lord, I do not change; therefore you, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed. 7 From the days of your fathers you have gone away from My ordinances and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you...
