    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill ! 2

    BF I am just responding to the posts that you have made. Your post leads to the conclusions that I have made. It is your deterministic philosophy that is causing your problems. To quote you again BF "The drawing saves them and gives them faith" BF it it your words that lead me to the...

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill ! 2

    It is clear that you do not have a good grasp of the English language BF. Your own words prove you have the wrong view of salvation. And yes your words do show that you , whether you understand it or not, do lead to universalism.

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God? Where did this doctrine come from?

    Yes God is sovereign over His creation. He is just not "absolutely sovereign"/ deterministic as your religion requires Him to be. Your deterministic view would require that God be the actual cause of all the sin and evil in the world and thus responsible for such. The bible is clear that God...

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill ! 2

    Yes the gospel is powerful and those that hear and respond in faith will be saved. But you seem to think that only some hear it or that God only makes to powerful to some. The reality is that even of those that hear the gospel message some will freely accept the truth and some will freely...

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill ! 2

    That is your misunderstanding of the word of God through your continued cherry picking of verses and ignoring of the context of those verses that you think support your view. You are doing just what the WOF leaders and the cu*ts do. You are misusing the word of God to support non-biblical views.

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill ! 2

    So again you are promoting universalism BF. Christ was very clear in His statement or do you not believe what He said? Joh 12:32 "And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself." Note The word "people" is not in the Greek text but is supplied for stylistic reasons...

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill ! 2

    BF you have just proven free will of man. metaphorically, to draw by inward power, lead, impel: John 6:44 (so in Greek also; as ἐπιθυμίας ... ἑλκουσης ἐπί ἡδονάς, Plato, Phaedr., p. 238 a.; ὑπό τῆς ἡδονῆς ἑλκόμενοι, Aelian h. a. 6, 31; likewise 4 Macc. 14:13; 15:8...

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill ! 2

    So again you are promoting universalism BF. You have to deny the word of God if you hold to your false religion. Joh 12:32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself. Was Christ lifted up BF? God has a love for His creation and desires all to come to repentance or do...

    No person can come to Christ by their own freewill ! 2

    I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse: therefore choose life Deu_30:19 But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God? Where did this doctrine come from?

    You hear in theological circles, especially from Calvinists, that “God is Absolutely Sovereign.” They say this so often that a person would think it was a scripture – it is not. In Calvinism, the idea of “Absolute Sovereignty” is that God planned, orchestrated, and causes absolutely everything...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God? Where did this doctrine come from?

    So since you do not think you need anything but God to teach you then I would have to conclude that you do not have a bible as that is what men have written. Granted they are men led by the Holy Spirit but still just men. Plus the view that you have expressed would lead me to think you have...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God? Where did this doctrine come from?

    So you just answered my question. You are under the false impression that you have all the truth and those that do not agree with your view must be wrong. It is truly sad to see someone so consumed by their own false views as you are. The reason that we do not agree is because some of the...

    Blessed Imputation

    @KenH it seems you have missed what @Van said in his post. It is not the righteousness of man that we have to consider but the fact that God credits the man's faith as righteousness. Rom 4:5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God? Where did this doctrine come from?

    Do you think that you have the correct understanding of God's word @Dave G? I ask because since not everyone agrees and as you say there can only be one correct understanding so you must think that everyone else is wrong. It is either that or you have to admit that your understanding is wrong.

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God? Where did this doctrine come from?

    I have wondered if those that claim God has to be "absolutely sovereign" think that those that do not make that claim think God is less than sovereign?

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God? Where did this doctrine come from?

    You keep saying that but the bible does not agree with you. We are saved because we believe/have faith in the risen Son. But lets say you are correct then why, since God wants all to come to faith, does He not give that faith to all people? Two options 1] God really does not want all to come...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God? Where did this doctrine come from?

    Yes Adam fell and brought sin into the world but you are mistaken when you jump to the conclusion that that means that man cannot turn to God in faith and be saved. We have many verses that indicate that man can hear and respond to the various means that God has used to draw man to Himself. God...

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    I read your post several times an quite frankly I could not make heads nor tails out of it.

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    And as is usual for you you have completely misunderstood what the verse is saying BF. I have to wonder what your reading skill level is when you cannot even understand a clear sentence like this one. 23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and...

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    BF I have seen you make some really of the wall comments but this has got to e the wildest one yet. "Faith in God is One of the weightier matters of the Law." You r false religion has so twisted your brain that you do not even know when you make illogical statements. Be saved through Faith...
