It's the indwelling that gives us access to that justification that happened at the cross. Without the indwelling, nobody, not even OT believers were saved. It was still a promise for them until Pentecost. Romans eight specifically identifies the Life with the indwelling. As we see in other...

Hey JesusFan If by "Not", you mean that's not what I'm claiming the baptism with the Holy Spirit is, then yes. The baptism of the Holy Spirit places us into Christ. This is Jesus placing the Holy Spirit into us as a result of our initial faith. The Pentecostal and Charismatic views this...

Hey Dave The offer of the Gospel is made for all. That's the love part. But they still need to respond. There is a tension in the reformed understanding of Scripture. I'm assuming that in your question. I believe that most reformed people would claim that God's eternal purpose is not the same...

Walter No Worries. I have dyslexia and sometimes I can't understand my own posts. And thank God for spell checkers. Not just for bad spelling, but my typing is getting sloppy in my old age. :) Dave

Hey Deacon I never thought about solar panels and how they would be perfect for the Amish. When I was younger and fished a lot more, and the Amish by me would use battery powered electric motors on their boats. I wondered how they charged them, though. I think a gas station would do it for a...

I rejected your interstation of it. Nice try though. "For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith." 1 John 5:4 Is an evidence statement. you're making a cause claim. Dave

The reason why I posted this thread was because two of the largest false teachings today, in my opinion, mainly stems from the idea that the NT begins in Matthew chapter one, and not at the cross. One, is Catholicism. Who still use the priesthood, and many OT teachings, not realizing that the...

This is from JMac. This is from Macarthur's study Bible... ---" A proper interpretation of the epistles requires the recognition that it addresses 3 distinct groups of Jews: 1) believers: 2) unbelievers who were intellectually convinced of the gospel; and 3) unbelievers who were attracted by...

III. Faith, not works, the way of salvation, as proved by instance of First Testament saints (11:1-12:2) 1. Faith defined (11:1-3) 2. Faith illustrated (11:4-40) 3. Faith exhorted (12:1,2)] IV. Final Warnings and Exhortations (12:3-13:25) 1. If these Jews remain under the chastening hand...

So close. lol The people who seek did not seek to enter God's way, the narrow gate, but to seek to enter their way, the wide gate. Luke 13:24. "I never knew you" is just the Chaff who thought that they were wheat. What does that have to do with the elect? Hebrews 8:6 But in fact the ministry...

Bright, you'd need to prove it with Scripture.

Van I don't know how to explain it any better than the post that you're replying to. # 71 I believe. Sorry. Dave

Hi Dave. Yes, I see the context. The problem is not in the context. You're clinging to a translation that used old English, which always plays with the order. The word "even" was added by the translators to clarify, only it clarified THEIR meaning, meaning THEIR tradition, not the meaning of...

The ongoing faith, the life. Not the initial faith.

Read post #81 it applies here also. Context matters. Dave

Hi Alan The life is the result of the Holy Spirit indwelling because it is Christ who lives in us. The ongoing faith is the gift from God. Nothing has been proven to extend that gift of grace/life to the initial belief/trust/faith before that indwelling. Read carefully...until proven other...
