but is this really free will. Unless God opens their heart. they will never receive it If he does open their heart. they will never reject it. to me its like they are trying to make it appear that their is a freedom of will. when in fact. it is all just words.. The reality is, in their...

most of the arguments and or fights I see is based on doctrinal disagreements. Not so much biblical disagreements (The biblical disagreements are a result of doctrinal differences) The Calvin/Arminian debate, with the exception of some in the catholic protestant debates, are some of the worse I...

I see spiritual death like this A person who is physically dead. His spirit or soul is separated from his body. A person who is spiritually dead. His spirit is separated from God everything you mentioned here is the results of the spiritual separation between God and his creation (man) When...

we could say at least he has truth. why don't you try to argue his points instead of attacking him like a child. Comments like this are childish and add nothing to the conversation

then what happened to him, how did he forget God was omnipresent, he was omniscient, you could not hide from God or fool God because God did nto know. and why did he see himself as naked. lol. Sorry bro, this is nonsensical On that day (the day you eat of it you will certainly die. it did not...

No, it is not. It is not written this way, nore would it fit the rest of scripture. No. It is evidence they trust God. and that they have recieved the gift of life (john 3 with John 1) yes. but many are called few are chosen, because not everyone called repents and believes Yes, I can not...

Yes. Like I said, for some reason. the fact one has faith in God seems painful to them and self righteous. Yet when you actually ask them, no one can actually explain in plain terms why trusting in someone else. and nothing of yourself is earning salvation or anything else. the one who was...

well I see it this way sort of. All manner of sin is forgiven all men. But the sin of unbelief. We differ in that they think he only died for the elect. I believe he died for everyone. not sure what you mean here Amen, this is 100% true. Adam died the moment he sinned, we can tell by how he...

here you go what did he know about them? why did the father Tell jesus he could have all of them?

once again vs 13 and 14 is how 4 and 5 happens. God choses and predestines based on his foreknowledge and his will. what is his will? that all who see and believe will be saved Yes faith is an instrument, We aree saved by Grave THROUGH FAITH. God does not fo0rce us to trust him,, he offers...

I never said otherwise. But 3 - 5 have to be taken in context with 13 - 14. if you do not put them together and make them all one point.. you miss on the true intent of vs 3 - 5

yes we could

eph 1: 13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is the [e]guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of...

I highly doubt this my friend..

a problem I have with this thinking is we are dead in trespasses and sins, and we must be made alive in Christ if we want to enter the kingdom. Jesus said he who believes is not condemned, he who does not believe is condemned already. The one who suffers the second death suffers it because...

Most Calvinists I know are afraid of faith. afraid if I say I had faith and that faith saved me, I saved myself. So their faith had to be a gift of God given to them through regenerating them. so they could believe. Hence God saved them But he with holds the ability of the non elect to even...

I never heard this from any calvinist. Just saying, I will have to do some research

and he should not have to apologize for it? I think this is what is wrong with this world. we can say whatever we want even knowing what we say is not true. and do not need to have to pay for our sins

the only thing I see a calvinist sees different is when regeneration takes place. In the end. Both believe forgiveness of sin is based on faith, they just believe one is born again before faith. where the rest of us believe it occurs as a result of us recieving the gift of God in faith

The wage (penalty or righteous judgment) of sin is death (spiritual) Adam was told. in the moment you eat of this tree. dying you will die And the moment he ate, we see he died in that moment (the things he knew about God left him, he tried to Hide, tried to blame shift. His nature was no...
