    Calvinism, Arminianism, and Provisionism?

    JF Think of salvation as a process. Not the justification part, which is called positional sanctification, but the practical or progressive part of sanctification. Our becoming what God already reckons us to be in Christ. The practical salvation starts with the life, which starts with the...

    You'd think that I could spell his name right, since it's right on the cover of the video. Sorry Rueben Bain.

    Calvinism, Arminianism, and Provisionism?

    Hey JF John 7:38-39? Not born again, not indwelt with the Holy Spirit, yet they believed. That's what Jesus taught. How did they achieve that? According to Romans 8:9-11, if we hold to your two option theory, it must be the flesh, because they didn't have the Spirit. JF, please consider that...

    NFL draft junkies start now.

    There's talk about Rubin Baines possibly falling out of the first round. The problem is at 6'3", people say he has sub thirty one inch arms, which basically makes him a glorified bull rusher only. Sometimes you can hit on these types of players. Ed Reed, and Ray Lewis were too short. I remember...

    The history of God's dwelling.

    There is power in God's presence. OT believers understood this. And because there is power in God's presence, God uses His presence to give us His grace. Understanding this helps unfold the mysteries of why God didn't bring the Gospel to the whole world until after the cross. Believers, being...

    Calvinism, Arminianism, and Provisionism?

    Hey JF Emphasis on "the grace provided", and "this grace". If you listen to the video from the OP from the 4 minute mark to about the 5 minute mark, he explains that the grace provided is from the Holy Spirit. Even through the Word. I believe that Flowers argument was for a form of prevenient...

    Calvinism, Arminianism, and Provisionism?

    Hey Wesley If I'm understanding you correctly, I went over some of that in this thread posted below, which is closed now. I see a separation from God as the inability to do what the Spirit does in us. When the Bible speaks of a mans inability to do good, it's always in the context of...

    This mock has the Browns taking Caleb Downs, no way the Browns pass up on a Tackle, even if they need to reach a little. Reese going # 4. Too high for a linebacker. Sometimes I think these guys don't put much thought into these things. Or they're subconsciously favoring their teams...

    The new order week seven. Jets hangin' in there. Browns only move down to 6. I thought it would be more than that. And Jacksonville starting to come back down to earth. New York Jets (0-7) Miami Dolphins (1-6) New Orleans Saints (1-6) Tennessee Titans (1-6) Baltimore Ravens (1-5) Cleveland...

    A lot of people have Ohio states Arvell Reese as the number one linebacker. I noticed that he's not on a lot of lists. Maybe because he's a junior? Never mind. I see him on your second list. Arvell primarily plays inside, but can play outside also.

    Calvinism, Arminianism, and Provisionism?

    Hey Z 1 Corinthians 2:14 is speaking about understanding the deeper truths of Scripture, not what one needs to be know to come to a saving faith. Paul's whole point to the Corinthians was that they were seeking truth by the flesh through worldly philosophies Paul could only feed them the milk...

    Calvinism, Arminianism, and Provisionism?

    OK my bad. I just assumed that you mistakenly made the comment backwards, or said Calvinism but meant Arminianism, because my dyslexia makes me do things like that all the time. I get the gist of what you're saying. Two opposing wills, one must overturn the other. I would probably word it...

    Calvinism, Arminianism, and Provisionism?

    John 7:38-39 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

    Calvinism, Arminianism, and Provisionism?

    Hey Martin. Most Calvinists see two choices, born again or the flesh. That's the biggest error right there. OT believers could not be born again, yet they believed. Even Calvin recognized this, but, I believe he started with the wrong framework foundationally. He recognized that there was a...

    Calvinism, TULIP, and reverse engineering

    Hey @atpollard Sorry for your difficult journey. I don't disagree with any of these statements. I'll even provide Scripture to back them up. But there is context, and that context doesn't allow the Calvinist interpretation of those passages. 1. People are, at their core, no damn good...

    Calvinism, TULIP, and reverse engineering

    Hey Z I have. You'll see a sampling below of some threads I started. Would you then agree that 'Covenant' and 'Testament' basically means the same thing? The Old Covenant and the New Covenant are distinct from each other in many ways, as is not only evidenced by the writer of the book of...
