My Bible says that "all" men will be drawn to Christ. There's that word "all" again. John 12:32 "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me." All men are drawn to Christ by the Holy Spirit, Dave G, but only those who believe the Gospel will be saved.

No matter who you are, what you've done in this life, Christ has the power to deliver you from your sins. Christ said this some 2000 years ago and is still saying it today to anyone who desires peace of heart and soul. Matt. 11:28-29 "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and...

Shame, shame on you BF, for limiting the will of God to save the lost in this world that Christ gave His life for.

In Rom. 11 just after Paul says "for with the heart man believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation," He says, Rom. 11:17, "so then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God." Man heard the Gospel in the Word of God, believed it and confessed...

You will be ashamed when you find that Christ offered Himself to the whole world and for all time as a sacrifice for their sins. 1 John 2:2 "And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world." God help you, Dave G.

All of us were spiritually dead before we heard the Gospel and chose to believe God. TULIP is an evil in this world teaching man that God doesn't love everyone, and saves whom He chooses. Many will give up and say I've done to much wrong in my life for God to accept me, I'm one that He doesn't...

Absolutely not, Dave G! All of us came to Christ through the hearing of the Gospel, no exceptions! They could not hear the words of Christ because they loved the things of the world, the things of Satan, the reason Christ told them Satan was their father, and that they would do the things of...

Obviously you haven't read Rom. 11 where Paul makes a distinction between Israel and the Gentiles. Paul plainly tells the Roman Church (Gentiles) they are the wild olive branches grafted into the olive tree with the natural branches (Israel). The Gentile Church is not Israel! We were grafted...

I think we pretty much see it the same, Van. Here's the way I understand it. Paul is speaking of the unity of faith in our salvation. There is only one Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ that can save us. There is only one Spirit that works through the Cross of Christ to save us, the Holy...

Acts 17:30-31 "And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he...

God made the New Covenant in Christ with Israel, and the Gentile Church was grafted in. The "all" is all of mankind, "whosoever will."

Yes, for sure there are those who will not accept anything other than the KJV, I personally know hundreds of them here in NC. All of them that I know are IFB, not the TULIP brand of fundamentalism. There are some like myself (IFB) that don't get bent out shape if someone is using another...

Why? No one here believes it but you. That's why I'm concerned for you, BF.

BF, has God called on you? Has He pricked your heart showing you that you are a born sinner deserving of eternal separation from Him? Has He shown you the crucified Christ that died for your sins in His mercy and grace to deliver you from total destruction? I perceive you are troubled over...

Acts 10:34-35 "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him."

Rom. 10:12-13 "For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

Rev. 22:17 "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely."

Joshua 24:15 "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."

Matt. 23:37 "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!"

Isaiah 1:18-20 "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall...
