    Now the People of God, Now Have Obtained Mercy

    Yet another subject change post, running from biblical truth. You believe if a lost person puts their faith in Christ, and God credits that faith as righteousness, then the lost person somehow merited salvation. That is your and Calvinism's Absolutely False Claim. Please stop with the...

    Sir, you said you could not find the meaning as if obscure. Now you do not even acknowledge that Elders were elected by the members. Goodbye

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

    You can post "taint so" till the cows come home, Calvinism simply reads into John 6:44 what anyone can see is not there. There is not need to redefine the meaning according to Calvinist doctrine, that is simply reading Calvinist doctrine into the text. Here is an objective viewpoint: 66tn Or...

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

    Not what is said, the outcome was uncertain, perhaps wheat, perhaps something else. You can deny scripture till the cows come home, or strive to change the subject and bring up an endless list of non-germane verses. I have seen it all before. For example Acts 2:47 does not say "such as...

    Good Grief, it is right their in Strongs. I am done, you are just obfuscating. c. with the loss of the notion of extending the hand, to elect, appoint, create: τινα, Acts 14:23 And here is the snippet from a Greek Interlinear: 14:23 ceirotonhsantes cheirotonEsantes G5500 vp Aor Act Nom Pl m...

    Ungodly Divisions

    Repeating for the last time, scripture tells us how "those communities gave their approval." Acts 14:23. Here is a word for word translation - Then - they(the members) elected by stretching out the hand - elders - for them - in every - called out assembly - - having prayed - with - fasting - -...

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

    1 Corinthians 15:37 NKJV And what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but mere grain—perhaps wheat or some other grain. Once again, an event occurs with a chance outcome. Some of the grain sown might be wheat, but other grains of something else, the...

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

    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...

    Ungodly Divisions

    It is pointless to continue, Sir, as you seem unable or unwilling to address what I say. My first point was about the word appointed, meaning elected by a show of the church members hands, and you addressed the method of laying on of hands.

    Ungodly Divisions

    1) Yes, they were not appointed. You apparently do not know the meaning of the Greek word translated as appointed. It means to select or elect by a showing of hands or a stretching out of hands. 2) Yes Timothy was and is not an Apostle, invalidating you own claim and supporting the post...

    Now the People of God, Now Have Obtained Mercy

    Yes another absolute falsehood with no quote. The claim that the faith of a lost person merits salvation is the spawn of Satan, and promulgated by Calvinists.

    Now the People of God, Now Have Obtained Mercy

    Yes, folk, we have yet another post addressing me and running from any effort to discuss biblical doctrine.

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

    I have been falsely charged with claiming view of God's attributes makes God less than God. Anytime you see a shift from addressing biblical doctrine to addressing the one holding a different view, smile and think to yourself, yes God allows people to act that way, for God is Sovereign.

    What is AI?

    Reminds me of the story of people doing something bad, but God intended the something for good.

    Right, some of the eleven Apostles plus Paul laid on the hands of every leader elected by the members. If you believe that, I have a bridge to sell. Certainly we see where Paul confirmed the elected leaders establishing the method. Leaders are elected by the members, but the members then look...

    More manufactured false doctrine by reading into John 6:44 what is not said or suggested.

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

    The OP verses do not say what Calvinism claims. No one seeks God does not say no one ever seeks God, the Calvinist rewrite. John 5:40 simply indicates some people are unwilling to put their faith in Christ. It does not teach on one is able to trust in Christ. Yes, it is true, no one can put...

    In the context if the Bible, is the word 'believe' the same as "faith'?

    Now you change the subject. I see no reason for your nonsense posts. The issue is not every born anew Christ has been sealed in Christ with the Holy Spirit, called with several different names in scripture. It is the sequence. First we hear the gospel, God's revelation. Next, if we are...
