Good question! Here is what I said: Due to poor translation, some Bible readers are unaware that leaders were elected by a show of hands of the members, the assembly of those called out of darkness into the kingdom. See Acts 14:23 and 2 Corinthians 8:19. The word translated as appointed (or...

Who said Baptists began before the folks that separated from the Church of England. To go back farther, one must swim back through the Church of England, and then jump into Roman Catholic believers, and back to the Church fathers. Just like everybody else. :) The only point some Baptists make...

No, it does not help. The usual "ask" for source is simply a ploy to deny the fact and switch subject to sourcing from whatever topic is at hand. Obfuscation on display. When I post, from the internet anyone can copy the first several words and do a search and find the source. Anyone!!!

Once again the plain truth is denied. Believers are chosen for salvation through faith in the truth. Believers, rich in faith are chosen. Heirs to the kingdom promised to those that love God are chosen. Pay no attention to the unbiblical claims from the dark ages. 2 Thessalonians 2:13...

A public posting need not comply with your classroom rules.

Utter nonsense, first a change of subject to a "model of Redemption" then the absurd claim physical circumcision counts for anything under the New Covenant. I kid you not, the concept that Christ's death provides the means of reconciliation for the whole of humanity, 1 John 2:2 is something...

How are we saved? God chooses an individual for salvation by spiritually setting that person apart in Christ, the sanctification by the Spirit, based on crediting the person's faith as righteousness. In Christ they undergo the washing of regeneration, they are made alive together with Christ...

Obviously, this poster believes he didn't imply I said God did not know the future. These guys are something special...

One subject change after another, running from the fact God chooses individuals for salvation based on crediting their faith as righteousness. This is the gospel truth their false doctrine denies.

Ever wonder why certain posters that share a common theological outlook, misrepresent others? I is strange behavior for believers. What I said, " God knew inclinations of the people being brought to the promised land, which they were developing in that day, not the future." What was posted...

Yet another nonsense post, here 2 Thessalonians 2:13 is ignored "chosen through faith" and a non-germane verse is posted referring to obedience not faith. I kid you not, they must know the caliber of their posts.

Due to poor translation, some Bible readers are unaware that leaders were elected by a show of hands of the members, the assembly of those called out of darkness into the kingdom. See Acts 14:23 and 2 Corinthians 8:19. The word translated as appointed (or chosen or ordained) is "cheirotoneō" (...

From the internet, 2. Autonomy of the Local Church The local church is an independent body accountable to the Lord Jesus Christ, the Head of the church. All human authority for governing the local church resides within the local church itself. Thus the church is autonomous, or self-governing...

Bible study requires we leave our comfort zone, and accept that our prior beliefs, based perhaps on what others have told us is true, might be wrong. Thus our pride supports the status quo, the "don't rock the boat" acceptance of traditions over truth.

Once again, the topic is not addressed, just the usual change of topic to my supposed flaws. What wonderful fruit to behold....

From the internet. "1. Biblical Authority The Bible is the final authority in all matters of belief and practice because the Bible is inspired by God and bears the absolute authority of God Himself. Whatever the Bible affirms, Baptists accept as true. No human opinion or decree of any church...

Returning to topic, I expect it will be news to inform all these "taint so posters" that God declares the end from the beginning, because He will fulfill His prophecy, or in other words, make whatever was declared to happen. No crystal ball is involved.
