I understand what you are saying. I’m having difficulty with your statement we do “great harm” when we don’t take the great commission seriously. Great harm to whom? Unbelievers? Ourselves? To what ? The great commission? To the cause of Christ? What scripture to you have to support the...

Once again, this poster not only proves his ignorance of what the doctrines of grace teach, he cannot even accurately state what the “topic” is. The topic of this OP is NOT that anyone is claiming to save people AND IT IS NOT whether people can be receptive to the presentation of the gospel...

Against folks, @Van proves his intellectual dishonesty by pretending he didn’t say what he very clearly posted in his thread.” “A Good Question”. Quite frankly, I’d be embassies too, if I had said what he said. It is indefensible to claim more folks are going to hell because of “slacking soul...

It is true Jewish folks didn’t realize the promises of the Messiah would go to all people, but it is not accurate to say God hadn’t promised this blessing to the Gentiles, even from the time of Adam and Eve. They didn’t know because they were willfully ignorant God had repeatedly promised we’d...

This is what I stated… This is how you responded This is your first post in the thread you started “A Good Question”. Obviously, I accurately quoted what you stated. I will wait patiently for you to apologize for accusing me of misrepresenting what you said. I encourage you again to answer...

The context of the whole letter helps understanding the passage. Philemon owned a slave (onesimus?) that had stolen from him and ran away. The slave ended up in Rome with Paul and became a believer. Paul was sending the slave back to Philemon (with this letter) encouraging him to forgive the...

Please answer the OP @Van. You say people are not getting into heaven because believers are not out “soul winning”. Since that is your belief, why are you wasting time posting on the BB? According to your philosophy, the eternal fate of many people is up to your efforts at “soul winning”...

You are incapable of understanding the doctrines of grace and shall forever misrepresent what I believe, even though I have repeatedly explained it to you. Conversation with you is the biggest waste of time on this board. Please go away. Quit trying to hijack this thread with your ignorance...

The purpose of this OP is NOT to discuss your perversion of the doctrines of grace, but to discuss a specific topic. Try to stay focused. If someone really believes many folks end up in hell because of a lack of “soul wintering”, why are they wasting time posting on the BB? Since you believe...

He saw, as @Van stared, a large number of Gentile believers. That is what he saw. That is what is meant by seeing the grace of God. peace to you

Your every post reveals ignorance of God’s Word and the teachings of the doctrines of Grace which are based on God’s Word. Please answer the question of the OP if you have any intellectual integrity at all…. If you really believe, @Van, as you have stated repeatedly, that many folks won’t make...

There you have it folks. @Van thinks his posts are “the actual word of God” That explains a lot. peace to you

Yes or no. Are you saying I don’t have faith in Jesus for salvation? I don’t need a lecture pushing your continuous mischaracterization of the doctrines of grace. Yes or no! Are you denying I am saved? Girdle up your loins and answer like a man of conviction, if that is possible. peace to you

Very profound. Thanks for sharing. Quick story. Just after I came to Christ, I witnessed to a young man for about an hour, hour and a half. He wasn’t having any of it. The next day I confessed to my pastor I felt like a failure. I’ll never forget what he said. He said, “if you didn’t think...

1 Corinthians 12:3 does not say anything about HS “working in those who claim Jesus is Lord.” That is eisegetical :) Please don’t read into scripture what it doesn’t say. It says no one can say Just the Lord but by God Holy Spirit. If nothing else, the emphasis is on the indispensable role of...

So, what’s the point of posting these passages? peace to you

Oh, that is funny. I guess when the very same threads are created over and over and over and over, there is bound to be repeat responses. Thanks for the reminder peace to you

I don’t disagree with scripture you posted. There are other passages that speak to the issue, as well. 1 Corinthians 12:3 says in part, “… no one can say Jesus is Lord but by the Holy Spirit”. The passages must be reconciled. Does Paul mean, literally, that people are unable to mouth the words...

Are you claiming I don’t have a “personal faith in Christ?” Are you claiming I am not saved? It sure sounds like it. Speak your mind plainly if you have the grit peace to you

If a person really believes many folks won’t get to heaven if believers aren’t “soul winning”, why do they spend all their time on the BB attacking reformed theology? Why not spend all that time and effort “soul winning”? peace to you
