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...

Ungodly divisions. 1) How about when the Church of England split from the Catholic Church? 2) How about when the "separatists split for the Church of England? 3) How about when the Luther/Catholic divide occurred? Yes, we as Christians are supposed to have the spirit of unity but not at the...

Why waste more effort, I have shown you in post after post, your mind is closed because of your traditions which you believe are true. I have asked this before: Who are the people who comprise the "fields white for harvest?" They are those who are "of My sheep" open to God's word, not having...

Lets consider the impertinence of imputation. What does Psalm 32:2 say? The NKJV says impute iniquity. The NASB says whose guilt the LORD does not take into account, The CSB says "does not charge with iniquity. So on the one had, the Lord says the person did not sin, and on the other, the...

Yes, most should shake their heads and laugh out loud at the posts indicating biblical illiteracy, saying scripture does not say things happen by chance.

Yet another obviously false claim. I did not change God's message. The reason they did not believe was because they were not of My sheep. They were not "of My sheep" because they were not open to God's word, they minds were closed by their faith in fiction.

Yet another complete misrepresentation. Ever wonder why these Calvinist posters must resort to villification and falsehood to defend their false doctrine? Yet another nonsense post, hurling absurdity to hide biblical truth. 1) Yes John 10:26 says the group does not believe BECAUSE they...

Yet another post asking an off topic question. These folks seem not to want to address any thread topic. God allows things to happen by chance. 1) Calvinism or the Calvinism defenders seem unable to even list the verses where scripture says things happen by chance. 2) Calvinism or the...

Technological displacement has been occurring since the dawn of time. In the 1920's people used oil lamps and had blocks of ice delivered. Someone back then probably said electricity was "Satan's juice." There is no doubt many human inventions could be used for evil (the atomic bomb springs to...

Are you going to discuss why leaders were elected by the members by a show of hands, or simply ignore God's word? Or why local churches were governed by Elders (leaders) elected from the members?

Totally off topic "against the person" fallacious argumentation." This is all they have folks, false charges and nonsense posts.

Yet another nonsense post, hurling absurdity to hide biblical truth. 1) Yes John 10:26 says the group does not believe BECAUSE they are not "of My sheep." 2) Thus the OP says exactly the same thing! The difference in interpretation is Calvinism false claims "of My sheep" refers to the same...

Absolute nonsense. Predestination NEVER refers to God choosing humans for salvation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 1) The Greek word "proorizo" appears 6 times in the KJV: a) In Acts 4:28, God predestined the people gathered to do whatever God had purposed for them to do. b) In Romans 8:29 God...

Sir, you can redefine the meanings of words to create different meanings. Such as I "suggest that things happen by chance." Here is what I said: Scripture teaches things happen by chance necessitating the allowance of chance occurrence.

Now we are supposed to believe JesusFan does not recognize scripture, so he asked if the word of God is of human origin. I kid you not.

Yet another troll like post, from someone who seems to suffer from derangement syndrome.

God causes, ordains, predestines OR allows whatsoever comes to pass. God does not just cause, ordain or predestine whatsoever comes to pass. Exhaustive Determinism is unbiblical nonsense. Scripture teaches things happen by chance necessitating the allowance of chance occurrence.

Once again, a post trying to prevent discussion of the thread topic.

1) We are not placed into Christ when we receive the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. We are transferred into Christ, then undergo the washing of regeneration, causing us to be born anew, and only then are we sealed in Christ with the Holy Spirit. 2) The indwelling of the Holy Spirit does not...

Yes, the Ministry staff reported directly to our Senior Pastor, but the Elder board could remove any staff for cause, but the board usually followed the Senior Pastor's recommendation. On the other hand the Senior Pastor could not hire staff without the approval of the board, but he made the...
