    In the context if the Bible, is the word 'believe' the same as "faith'?

    So what action by God arises from or is based upon God crediting our faith as righteousness. He transfers the individual whose faith as been credited as righteousness into Christ. See 2 Thessalonians 2:13 and James 2:5. Thus the distinctive between the human action to believe in something...

    Understanding John 1:12-13

    More false doctrine regurgitated from the bogus doctrines of the dark ages. 1) Yes, we only come into a right relationship with God by the will of God and not our will. 2) Yes, we must be born anew by the will and causative action of God. 3) Yes, no one puts their faith in Christ unless...

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    On and on folks, now this poster claims that faith IS righteousness, rather than we obtain our righteousness through our credited faith. And also note the repetitive posting of non-germane scripture as if it supported his fiction. Saying faith is important does not support the bogus claim...

    In the context if the Bible, is the word 'believe' the same as "faith'?

    Hi Cjab, I hold a very different view. The merit or lack their of "faith" is not found in Greek word form, but in whether or not God credited that "faith" as righteousness. We see in the account of Abraham, that he trusted in God's promise, and would follow God's instructions, even when they...

    God Causes or Allows Whatsoever Comes to Pass.

    Pretty simple doctrine, if we choose not to put our faith and commitment in Christ, then God will not credit our unbelief as righteousness, as He as already condemned it. But if we choose to put our faith and commitment in Christ, that will not save us, but only if God chooses to credit our...

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    Unless the righteousness of a lost person surpasses the righteousness of scribes and Pharisees, such that you have never broken even one point of the Law, the person will not enter the kingdom of heaven. A person must be made perfect to enter the abode of God. All our works of righteousness...

    Understanding John 1:12-13

    Note the clear sequence of actions, first a person receives Him, refers to those who believe in His name. Thus the first action is lost person comes to put their faith, as worthless as it may be, in what he or she believes about Christ, such as Jesus is God incarnate, born of a virgin, lived a...

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    On and on this poster continues to post falsehoods already shown to be his own misrepresentations, just like Satan in the garden. Next he claims God would credit a person's faith as righteousness that does not meet God's purpose. Idiotic gibberish. On and on, one false claim after another...

    God Cannot Deny Himself

    Yet another vile misrepresentation, just like Satan. Did I say God is desperately trying to save every person? Nope. I referenced 1 Timothy 2:4-6 which says: who wants all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For...

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    Yet another vile misrepresentation, just like Satan. Did I say "your righteousness?" Nope, so a false claim by a falsehood poster. I said God credits the person's faith as righteousness. Does anyone believe this poster actually did not grasp that having a right belief does not make a...

    God Cannot Deny Himself

    God desires all people to be saved according to His redemption plan, not Calvinism's compulsion plan. Thus Christ's death was a ransom for all, those to be saved and those never to be saved. Christ became the means of reconciliation for the whole of humanity. Since Christ provided the means...

    God Cannot Deny Himself

    The issue is not the true gospel, but whether God credits an imperfect understanding of that gospel if it meets His purpose. Your thread says no, which is an obscene, my way or the highway claim. What does Matthew 23:13 say? That people who were in the process of entering the kingdom were...

    God Cannot Deny Himself

    Folks, please re-read John Chapter 21. Note how Peter does not love Jesus sacrificially (Greek agapao) but does love Jesus relationally (phileo). Jesus accepts this immature commitment as meeting His purpose. Calvinism's claims are false, unbiblical, and obscene. They deny Christ died as a...

    God Cannot Deny Himself

    The issue is not the true gospel, but whether God credits an imperfect understanding of that gospel if it meets His purpose. Your thread says no, which is an obscene, my way or the highway claim. This thread violates the basic tenets of the forum.

    God Cannot Deny Himself

    This obscene thread is a "my way or the highway" thread. Only those given a perfect faith, instilled by God, which is the Calvinist view, are saved, all others, believing Calvinism is mistaken, are unsaved. This thread violates the basic tenets of the forum.

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    Again, I asked for the Father's basis for transferring an individual into Christ, and this poster changes the subject. These posters are enemies of the truth. Here is is contended that the meaning of John's phrase, originally written in Greek, does not mean, when literally translated into...

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    Why is it that Calvinists cannot address what scripture says, but must misrepresent the biblical presentations I post? Does God justify a sinner based of their righteousness? Nope. What I actually said: Believing Into Christ based on God (the Father) crediting your faith as righteousness is...

    Understanding John 1:12-13

    John 1:12-13 NASB But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name, who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of a man, but of God. Here is my interpretation: "As many as received Him"...

    God Causes or Allows Whatsoever Comes to Pass.

    God allows humans to make choices that could alter the outcome of their lives, such as believing into Christ or not.

    Believing Into Christ based on God crediting your faith as righteousness

    Yet more gibberish, believing John referred to positional sanctification when he used the inspired phrase believes into Him, is believing the bible. I asked for the basis of the Father's action, and you deflected.
