That is the debate. If Christ made propitiation for sins of every person without exception, then why does anyone go to hell? Those that support “free will” will say (as I have heard some, not you, say) is that propitiation is made for all sins except rejecting Christ and the gospel. When...

This is true. Paul told us to work out our salvation with fear and trembling. It is a shame we cannot discuss our shared salvation without personal attacks. What I have found, to keep things civil, each person should be able to recite the other’s beliefs according to their own words, without...

That looks so realistic. Wow! Peace to you

I don’t need a lecture in theology from someone who believes many are saved having never heard the gospel. Peace to you

Well, I can only speak for myself. Long before I heard of “Calvinism” I gleaned from scripture the truths that I found out later were referred to as the doctrines of grace I do understand that Luther, Calvin, Knox, Gill and many others throughout the centuries also came to the conclusion these...

It has been disputed for 2000 years, since the founding of the Church people have tried to discredit what has clearly been taught by God in His Word. That is why Paul spent so much time writing letters. He was attempting to make very clear many core doctrines that are now referred to as the...

The five points come from scripture, not man Peace to you

Double post Peace to you

Yeah I think so. Keep the memes coming. :) Peace to you

You should delete the one with the vulgarity. Taking out one le:ter doesn’t keep it from violating the rules. Peace to you

Don’t really know what point you are making, but to be clear, Matthew 7 demonstrates salvation is about a relationship with Jesus Christ. And you still haven’t addressed your missing the context of Revelation 3:20. Peace to you

You call God a liar? Very bold. You don’t understand the passage because you are attempting to use it as a proof text.. and you are out of context. God did not accept Cain’s offering because he didn’t shed the blood of a spotless lamb, as Abel had done. If he offered what God required, God...

Jesus is speaking to a church full of professing Christians in Revelation 3:20. I’m sure the context won’t stop you from believing what you want to believe. Very good. Accepting the fact you don’t understand is a welcome first step. Let me explain it to you. The gospel, according to 1...

I never said the OT doesn’t apply. Don’t know what you are talking about. Believers are those that respond to God revealing Himself to them, and they always have been. Fair enough You stated some people escape slavery. In the secular world, that is true. Paul is speaking of spiritual...

@Ben1445 … You have a habit of demonstrating ignorance of reformed theology ever time you state, “you believe” such and such. Folks in the OT were saved by grace just as we are. They were chosen for salvation, just as we are. God revealed Himself to them, just as He does to us. They had faith...

Please show me in scripture the phrase “free will choice” to be saved? Please don’t refer to commands to “chose this day who you will serve”. The entire OT Law is full of commands to chose certain things that no body but Jesus kept. Again, show me from scripture the phrase “free will choice”...

Illegal immigrants do not, legally, receive the same “due process” as U.S. citizens. As I understand it, it’s simply a matter of the State department/ICE or some other agency stating they are here illegally… and deporting them. Even if they are here legally, same thing. The U.S. government...

The issue of women not being allowed in pastor/elder roles has nothing to do with the “value” of women in the church. In fact, the teachings of scripture, specifically those of the Apostle Paul, have done more to recognize the value of women in the church and society than any other teaching in...

The context of “where 2 or 3 is gathered” in Matthew 20 is church discipline. I know of a small church that had membership down to a handful of little old ladies that refused to fold and met regularly for several years without a pastor. They eventually were able to get a retired pastor to lead...

The person asking the question “since you believe God determines everything why don’t you accept God decreed women to be pastors” can’t comprehend the truth of scripture found in 1 Timothy, or simply finds a way to dismiss it as not applying to his way of thinking. The difference is what God...
