Thanks, some of the defenders of exhaustive determinism also claim God is not the author of sin. The fact that is an irrational position does not phase them, once they shroud their doctrine in the invisibility cloak of "its a mystery."

Yet nonsense post addressing me and not the topic. Now the poster wants to discuss how a new born anew believer evaluates himself or herself before going to their first communion. I kid you not!

More nonsense, more change of subject questions, more deflection and obfuscation. This is all they have. They deny God credits the faith of believers as righteousness.

Yet another denial post ignoring verse after verse presented to prove God allows things to happen by chance. Notice that posters claim the bible does not teach this or that, but actually do not even know what scripture actually says.

I have asked you to stop, but you continue to assert babies evaluating their walk with Christ at communion is not deflection. Everyone knows it is.

Good Grief, now you claim to be a mind reader. Sir, please to addressing your posts to me, I now know what you are and see no opportunity for mutual enlightenment.

One redcurrant theme of scripture, is God provides protection, even when chance encounters bring adversity into our lives. The righteous man lives by faith, and not fate. We seek God as our refuge.

Yet another taint so post claiming scripture does not mean what it says. Folks, this is all the false teachers have, denial. I again saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift and the battle is not to the warriors, and neither is bread to the wise nor wealth to the discerning, nor...

Yet another "taint so" post ignoring verse after verse presented to prove God allows things to happen by chance.

Complete fiction, a false doctrine without a shred of biblical support. 1) Scripture precludes any individual being chosen before creation. 2) Fallen humanity are the sheep without a shepherd. 3) I refuted your OP claims in post #12.

Does the NT speak of possibilities, of things that may happen or might happen. 1 Corinthians 9:22 Interpretive Translation To the weak I became weak, that I MIGHT win the weak; I have become all sorts of things to all sorts of people, so that I MAY by all means SAVE some. The Greek words...

Definition of "Absolute Sovereignty:" God orders everything, controls everything, rules over everything. In other words God causes, predestines, controls everything that happens, nothing happens by chance or the autonomous decision of humans. On the other side of the debate are those that...

The claim Mr Trump might serve a third term is a Democrat hoax.

Not what scripture actually says! In context, the verse says all of God's blessings work together for good to them that love God and who have been called into Him, according to His purpose. Certainly all the inventions of people do not always work together for the good of Christ's ministry...

You are addressing me, not the issue. Elders were elected by the local church members, and confirmed by church leaders, sometimes including Paul, an Apostle. Acts 14:23. So the doctrine that divides some non-Catholics from Catholic dogma, is reliance upon the leading of the Holy Spirit among...

You are addressing me and not the topic. Being drawn by the Father, as said in John 6:44, refers to being attracted by God's revelation of His lovingkindness. The Greek word is used metaphorically to mean attract.

Are you pretending to be unable to grasp the issue? Calvinists claim, falsely, that if a lost person puts their own faith in Christ, and God uses that human faith, then that would be a works based salvation. For you to continue to deny the "gift of faith" doctrine of Calvinism is without merit.

Not what I said, stop with the usual misdirection to change subjects. Here again is what I said: "The claim that the faith of a lost person merits salvation is the spawn of Satan, and promulgated by Calvinists." The reason Calvinism teaches "the gift of faith" via Irresistible grace, is...

Being drawn by the Father, as said in John 6:44, refers to being attracted by God's revelation of His lovingkindness. The Greek word is used metaphorically to mean attract.

What was posted by Eternally Grateful? what about a babe in Christ who has not yet come to this point of his faith should they question their salvation. But what was the topic? The Saints perseverance is because of God's preservation. So as we examine our lives, to see if we are "in the...
