Good Grief, it is right their in Strongs. I am done, you are just obfuscating. c. with the loss of the notion of extending the hand, to elect, appoint, create: τινα, Acts 14:23 And here is the snippet from a Greek Interlinear: 14:23 ceirotonhsantes cheirotonEsantes G5500 vp Aor Act Nom Pl m...

Repeating for the last time, scripture tells us how "those communities gave their approval." Acts 14:23. Here is a word for word translation - Then - they(the members) elected by stretching out the hand - elders - for them - in every - called out assembly - - having prayed - with - fasting - -...

1 Corinthians 15:37 NKJV And what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but mere grain—perhaps wheat or some other grain. Once again, an event occurs with a chance outcome. Some of the grain sown might be wheat, but other grains of something else, the...

Definition of "Absolute Sovereignty:" God orders everything, controls everything, rules over everything. In other words God causes, predestines, controls everything that happens, nothing happens by chance or the autonomous decision of humans. On the other side of the debate are those that...

It is pointless to continue, Sir, as you seem unable or unwilling to address what I say. My first point was about the word appointed, meaning elected by a show of the church members hands, and you addressed the method of laying on of hands.

1) Yes, they were not appointed. You apparently do not know the meaning of the Greek word translated as appointed. It means to select or elect by a showing of hands or a stretching out of hands. 2) Yes Timothy was and is not an Apostle, invalidating you own claim and supporting the post...

Yes another absolute falsehood with no quote. The claim that the faith of a lost person merits salvation is the spawn of Satan, and promulgated by Calvinists.

Yes, folk, we have yet another post addressing me and running from any effort to discuss biblical doctrine.

I have been falsely charged with claiming view of God's attributes makes God less than God. Anytime you see a shift from addressing biblical doctrine to addressing the one holding a different view, smile and think to yourself, yes God allows people to act that way, for God is Sovereign.

Reminds me of the story of people doing something bad, but God intended the something for good.

Right, some of the eleven Apostles plus Paul laid on the hands of every leader elected by the members. If you believe that, I have a bridge to sell. Certainly we see where Paul confirmed the elected leaders establishing the method. Leaders are elected by the members, but the members then look...

More manufactured false doctrine by reading into John 6:44 what is not said or suggested.

The OP verses do not say what Calvinism claims. No one seeks God does not say no one ever seeks God, the Calvinist rewrite. John 5:40 simply indicates some people are unwilling to put their faith in Christ. It does not teach on one is able to trust in Christ. Yes, it is true, no one can put...

Now you change the subject. I see no reason for your nonsense posts. The issue is not every born anew Christ has been sealed in Christ with the Holy Spirit, called with several different names in scripture. It is the sequence. First we hear the gospel, God's revelation. Next, if we are...

If you do not know how to find the verses that say things happen by chance, you would seem to have no basis for claiming God does not allow things to happen by chance.

We were sealed in Christ with the Spirit AFTER we were transferred into Christ and regenerated, and made alive.

Yes, the advent of AI provides the opportunity for applicants to falsify proficiency tests if done on line. Recently 3 people were kiilled in an accident apparently caused by an unqualified truck driver. As far as entry tests for say college, cheating has been known since before AI, but AI...

It is pointless to continue . You post a verse that says we were put in Christ, then drink of one Spirit, while saying the verse supports being indwelt before being placed in Christ. And for another, you claim we are indwelt with the spirit before we are put in Christ and then sealed in...

Yet another you, you, you post addressing me and not the topic. This is the behavior of false teachers. Did I say people were not "of My sheep" because they did not believe, or because they were not open to God's word, Read the OP and see who misrepresents what is said. As far as Calvinism's...

I see yet another Calvinist tag team posting false doctrine and declaring it sound. The passage in question is 1 Peter 2:9-10. Is the passage addressing the Old Covenant or the New Covenant? Look at 1 Peter 2:2 and see who is the audience. People alive at the time 1 Peter was written, not to...
