In his "Body of Doctrinal & Practical and Doctrinal Divinity, By John Gill, Book 4, Chapter 1": "Of the Manifestation and Administration of the Covenant of Grace," there is a section here where he talks about the agreement between the Old Testament and the New Testament and covers The Covenant...

For example, The Doctrines of Grace are shown in the Old Testament from this Google AI Overview; "The Doctrines of Grace, often associated with Calvinism (TULIP), are indeed reflected in the Old Testament, showcasing God's sovereign grace in salvation history long before the New Testament...

You're leaving out all of the Doctrines of Grace throughout the Old Testament, as well as in all of the New Testament Books, and as thoroughly covered by the Early church fathers, and; "STATEMENTS FROM RELIABLE HISTORIANS." "Able historians, not Baptists, have made statements which confirm...

Augustine certainly was partially influential to Calvin in some areas, I'm sure. Probably some that were too bad, if I remember and find out what they were in my notes. That's called, "I'll have to check and see 'what I believe' on that."

What about why the ‘New King James Version’ in 1 Corinthians 1:18, says; “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” when the New World Translation, in 1 Corinthians 1:18, says; “For the speech about the...

Why does the ‘New King James Version’ in Romans 1:25, say; “who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.” when the New World Translation, in Romans 1:25, says; “They exchanged the truth of God for...

Do you care to explain why the ‘New King James Version’ in Acts 17:22, says; “Then Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, “Men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are very religious.” when the Roman Catholic New American Bible (NAB), in Acts 17:22, says; “Then Paul...

Then, can you explain why the ‘New King James Version’ in Acts 3:26, says; “To you first, God, having raised up His Servant Jesus, sent Him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your iniquities.” when the New World Translation, in Acts 3:26, says; “God, after raising up his...

Where would anyone come up with the idea of "an offer" that has ever been made "to the unbelieving"? Is there anyone you know of who is making "an offer" to the unbelieving? Who is it that says, "come and be free with me in my kingdom" Is there a rule written down somewhere that states, "I...

But using the name Lucifer did two things at once: readers would understand it as a name, while also understanding the semantic link between the name and the concept of 'light', due to the many other words in the lux word family. Transliterating הֵילֵל directly would have completely obscured...

That's why I was talking about looking mostly before this Reformation idea. The OED gives five instances of Lucifer being used as a proper noun before the KJV was written: The earliest citation there, Christ & Satan, is an Old English poem which could date from as early as the seventh...

These 5 items listed below (with 'no, no , no , no & yes' as their respective answers), along with 'Authority in *Baptism' not listed yet, (which can be explained to the best of my ability later), will pretty much cover what could be termed a Historic 'Fundamental' Baptist. Those kind of...

This is what Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament; says; I emphasize some points of theirs in blue and my comments are in green; "How art thou fallen from the sky, thou star of light, sun of the dawn, hurled down to the earth, thou that didst throw down nations from...

I know this is random, but if we ventured to wonder about the probabilities that Calvin just tore into a bunch of blank paper, from scratch, and pumped out a truckload of astoundingly voluminous collection, which became his Institutes, or about how far a stretch we would have to make to assume...

Besides; We have Pre-Vulgate usages, where Pre-Vulgate Vetus Latina (Old Latin) manuscripts use the word "Lucifer" at Isaiah; who found an online copy of the VL (Gryson, 1949). Gryson provides two variants of the line (the first in African readings, the second European ones) [African]...

"The morning star (a celestial body), Lucifer (a light-barer), Venus (feminine); the star (not in the text) (which is a foreshadowing of the sun's light, with the sun's light being the only light generated, apart from a little speck in the night sky, of Venus) which precedes the morning light...

There is a leap there, inspired by the influences of Mythology outside the Bible and I happen to believe that was a wrong uninspired stretch. Actually, a lot of the KJV was based on the Geneva Bible and this is the more probable reason for keeping it. The book of Isaiah has two sources the...

"Scripture itself is the final judge; we may not go beyond what is written and with the Spirit's decision in Scripture, we are to be content. Luther summed up the difference between the Reformation and the Renaissance nicely when he said once to the great scholar Erasmus; "The difference...

Fine. See New Thread: The Historic Beliefs of the Baptists Reduced Down to Three Distinctive Doctrines, under THE LORDSHIP of CHRIST.

II. "Individual Responsibility To God For The Performance Of Duty". A. "Individual responsibility separates the individual from family, friends, and government. "It brings him face to face with God, his Maker/Creator. If there is anything clear in the Bible it is this: “I am...
