Notice how the fact we are chosen for salvation through faith means the above claim is utter nonstop nonsense. You are not chosen then given faith, the absurd unbiblical claim from the dark ages, we are chosen through or on the basis of God crediting our faith as righteousness. Such a simple...

This passage teaches us about an aspect or attribute of God. In the passage, God anticipates those brought into the promised land with prosper and then turn away from God and practice evil. So God tells Moses to write a song and teach it to the sons of Israel, so that the song will be a...

Another distinctive blurred to allow two very different policies to both be called Baptist, is church polity. The biblical view is that the members vote to elect 'leaders" whether we call them deacons, elders, pastors or trustees. The governing board, then leads the church in day to day...

Utter nonsense!!!!!!!!!!! The total disregard for the obvious truth of scripture is mind boggling. A person must have been transferred from the realm of darkness into the kingdom of the Son, before regeneration occurs. Anyone can see we are made alive (regenerated) together with Christ.

On and on, more questions rather than addressing the answers given over and over. How are we saved? God chooses an individual for salvation by spiritually setting that person apart in Christ, the sanctification by the Spirit, based on crediting the person's faith as righteousness. In Christ...

More complete misrepresentation from a professing Christian. The only person claiming the lost are included with the saved is the one making false statements. God word says we are to beg the lost to be reconciled, which makes to sense if they had no opportunity to be reconciled. Your...

They were chosen for salvation by the Spirit setting them apart in Christ based on God crediting their faith, not some imaginary given faith, as righteousness.

Again, here the false claim is made that I said or suggested that everyone is saved, rather than the truth, I said everyone God transfers into Christ is saved. This is all they have, name calling, and misrepresentation.

God chooses people for salvation as He is reconciling the world to Himself. 1) God is reconciling. False teachers deny this fundamental truth. 2 Corinthians 5:19-20 In other words, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting people's trespasses against them, and he...

On and on, obfuscation after obfuscation. Everyone saved, transferred spiritually into Christ, has been, past tense, reconciled. For this poster to not know this par for the course. Note no mention of the verses that say God is reconciling, not has reconciled, the world, humanity. Nope, that...

Yes, my life has provided many wonderful memories of "summer vacations" many at National Parks. As a youth I watched the actual fire falls, before they stopped shoving burning bark over the cliff. And my kids, now in their 50's tell me of their memories of camping, fishing, and enjoying the...

On and on, false claim after false claim. 2 Thessalonians 2:13 says God has chosen through (Greek "en" used to show instrumentality) sanctification by the Spirit ( God setting the person apart into Christ) and through (based on crediting their) faith in the truth.

Note, this poster addresses me, avoids Matthew 23:13 as if it didn't demonstrate supernatural enablement is a fiction.

Thanks, atpollard, I did not see even one point to nit-pick. :) Yes we were called out of darkness, because we then existed in the realm of darkness. I see a request was made for scriptural evidence the church, those called out, are "all" priests. It is stated in 1 Peter 2:5 that the "you"...

So you like to ask questions, but actually have nothing to support your bogus views? Irresistible grace, one of your bogus views is shown to be bogus by Matthew 23:13, where people were entering the kingdom, thus according to your view were under the influence of irresistible grace, the...

Folks, read 1 John 2:2. Did Christ become the means of reconciliation for the whole of humanity? Folks, read 2 Thessalonians 2:13, does God choose individuals for salvation through faith in the truth? Pay no attention to posters who simply proclaim this or that but cannot even cite a single...

Some define Soul Liberty as the liberty to believe whatever you want, as long as it isn't the Truth.

Sorry but 1 John 2:2 as translated by the NASB says Christ became the means of reconciliation. I have addressed both your points and you have ignored the enlightenment. Christ provides the means of reconciliation, and God chooses those to receive it based on crediting their faith as righteousness
