    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Don't you believe the bible Ken? Eph 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; Eph 2:9 not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. Act 16:31 They said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    You just proved my point Ken. That verse does not support your claims Ken but it does support man's free will choice. We have the gospel message that we can hear and believe and trust in Him for our salvation. Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    God desires all to be saved and He convicts all of the their sin but He also says that only those that believe will be saved. So if God sets the condition of salvation then who are you oh man to speak against Him. Joh 3:14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Those are the opinions of Gill. The bible shows that those that hear and believe the gospel message will be saved. We are saved through the grace of God because we believe not so that we will believe.

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Those are bold claims you just made Ken. Care to back them up with clear biblical text.

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Salvation can not be earned Ken but God has set the condition of receiving that Gift, faith in His son. I know you have these verses in your bible so I have to wonder why you deny them? Act 16:30 He then brought them out and asked, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" Act 16:31 They replied...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    You betray your bias by the choice of your words Ken. You have followed a false religion and have misunderstood the word of God. The gift of salvation is offered to mankind and God desires that all would come to Him but He will not force anyone to do so. Those that trust in Him will be saved...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Your use of "prevent" points to your error in thinking Ken. God does not force people to be saved which your choice of the word "prevent" would suggest. You think God picked out a select group before the foundation of the world that would be saved no matter what. God desires all to be saved...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    You have just shown that you do not understand free will. God has set the condition for salvation, faith in His son. Those that meet that condition will be saved by Him. Man does not contribute top to or save himself, that is just a false flag of the C/R's. Do you not have Rom 1:16 in your...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    I have to ask where do you get the silly idea that man thinks he is sovereign?

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Well why stop at Judas, if all men do as God determines they do then that makes God the ultimate sinner. Or could they do other than what God determined they do BF? Determinism or free will BF those are the options. Why are you a detreminist BF? What made you follow that path?

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    So according to your view God is the author of all the sin and evil in the world. Not a biblical view but you seem comfortable with charging Him with it so you will have to answer to Him for that.

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    BF you have been shown the error of your thinking but you will not actually trust the word of God but rather your false religious view of God. I will continue to point out the errors you post but as for now I will let God deal with you. May He forgive you for the way you have mistreated His...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    BF you are making the error of thinking one action means all actions. You are assuming that because God can do something then He has to do something. By your view God is not sovereign, He has to follow the C/R's rules. So much for you saying God is "absolutely sovereign" As I said, God being...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Read what you wrote BF. God predetermined that Adam would sin. Could Adam do otherwise, not if God predetermined it he could not. So Adam did not sin of his own free will BF, he sinned as God had determined that he would. Thus the responsibility falls back to God.

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    The fact that the Lord overrules someone's heart does not prove C/R’s doctrine of the sovereign predestination of all things nor does it prove C/R’s doctrine that man cannot accept or reject God’s offer of salvation. All it proves is that God is sovereign which we all agree upon. We see in...

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Your thinking is really flawed BF Predetermined: decided in advance, unchangeable Freewill: The inherent ability of a person to make a contrary choice If God predetermined the choices Adam made then it was God that is responsible for the sin. If Adam had a real free will [not the C/R pseudo...

    I would say he is delusional but sadly many will read his of the wall comments and think they have some truth in them.

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Your not God and He would not call the illogical logical. We leave that form of silliness to those of the C/R view. You twist the word of God and use a different dictionary to support your rather odd views.

    The Absolute Sovereignty of God

    Sorry Ken I can not actually take you seriously as you deny the word of God way to much by holding to that philosophy that Augustine brought into the church. If you did believe the word of God then you would not disagree with it.
