There are no verses in Scripture that teach man can lose his salvation, none, zip, nada. All the usual verses address loss of the rewards of salvation. You still did not address the verses where God changes us spiritually which cannot be undone by human effort.

Once again addressing me and claiming personal incredulity. Just because I could not rule out one of the two possible meanings, does not mean I did not conclude it means one of them. The issue is your view cannot be found in scripture, but must be read into scripture. Please support your view...

Again, you seem to accept one translation as indicting exactly what God's word says. But that is absurd. The word translated in your version as "ordained" refers to a mutually agreed upon arrangement. You simply deny this truth, but offer no evidence. As many as took Paul's direction to...

I did not see an "Oops" but rather a change of subject. God allows repentance by not hardening the heart. That is the issue. I supported the view by explaining allow is the meaning in the context of repentance. I supported it by showing how God disallows repentance in those whose heart He...

I see where someone has claimed "Didomi" (G1325) is not translated as "allow" according to his source. Yes, some translation versions do not translate the Greek word ever as allow. But other do. Thus the implication I made the claim up, was posted, based on little or no study. No one, not...

I present my understanding of scripture as clearly as I can. Usually the response is taint so, with no actual rebuttal as to why it taint so. I have posted that no scripture supports Calvinism, except scripture does support once saved always saved. Here is what the OP said: Preservation of...

Does "open their eyes" refer to some sort of supernatural enablement as Calvinism claim, or is the actual idea to explain something in an understandable way? Same idea is presented by the phrase "opened her heart." Calvinism simply reads into vague phrases the invented doctrines of Calvinism...

Here the defense of Calvinism is based on what someone sees in unreferenced scripture. The issue is not what a person claims to believe, but on what God's message actually is!

I think you might mean, to burn down the barn is to ignore any part of God's inspired word. I believe I never disregard any part of His word. Let us discuss Hebrews 3:14-15 concerning the subject of loss of salvation, if that was your point? I assume some interpretation of these verses holds...

The phrase "Law of Liberty" is found in two verses in the Book of James, James 1:25 and 2:12. The Greek word translated "law of liberty" is "eleutheria" (G1657). The word appears about 11 times in the New Testament. The reference in both of the verses in James is to the liberty of some kind...

Folks, note that the false doctrines of Calvinism are defended almost exclusively by logical fallacies. Here the defense uses "Personal Incredulity" the old "that published doctrine of Calvinism" is not what any Calvinist believes" dodge. Note that the defense falls into one of three...

Actually I think you are attempting to claim fallen people cannot actually seek God or trust in Christ without supernatural enablement. But of course you did not say that. Scripture says many will seek the narrow door that leads to life but will not find it. No amount of legerdemain will...

You are wasting my time posting nonsense. Why ask who is confused when I did not say any specific person was confused, but only that mistranslation causes confusion. This is not difficult to grasp. But there you go, using the fallacy of personal incredulity, to obstruct discussion of bible...

John 3:16 cannot be nullified, everyone believing into Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. This absolutely precludes the loss of salvation. As you may know, their are different ways the passage cited is understood by scholars. For example if you expect God to have mercy on you...

No

So you deny God's word including Isaiah and 1 and 2 Peter? "Does seek ye first the kingdom of God" even ring a bell?

1. Calvinism is Fatalistic. Calvinism promotes fatalism and resignation. In reality, Calvinists believe everything has been predestined, you were either saved or damned from eternity for eternity, and there is nothing you can do to alter that outcome for yourself or your loved ones. 2...

Here is one claim from the Opening Post: Jesus Christ in not the Original GOD but only the Mirror Image of Original GOD Whom we call Father. This claim is unbiblical and therefore false. John 1:1 NASB In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and...

"When and if we believe into Him, we enter His Rest, fulfilling in our minor way, God's purpose of giving us His Creation narrative."

Totally false assertion, God's word teaches again and again that the lost must seek God and His righteousness.
