If God chooses who will be saved, what was the purpose of the atonement in that as John said, He is the satisfaction for the sins of the whole world? How can He be that satisfaction for "all" sin if God selects man and leaves the rest in their sin to perish?

I created a thread on that verse the other day and it refers to salvation. That's not what this conversation is about, we are talking about false doctrine but not the kind that leads to death (separation from God).

OK, this is not Burger King, but you can have it your way. That's the way God designed it.

No, it's based on the ramblings of those old dead men you keep quoting. The text doesn't have to say "men" it is clear the context of "all" is referring to men.

What I have proven is in " I will draw "all" men unto me" the context reveals "all men everywhere" there is no context of limitation.

The "all" in the English language is "Always" determined by the context in which it is used. The context of your verse reveals that, it's common sense.

How is it possible they can't understand this? Not actually asking the question, I'm pretty sure we know.

I've never had to face what you are experiencing. I don't have the words. I'm truly sorry for your suffering and loss.

You can pick any verse in Scripture and apply a focus of your choosing, regardless of it's intended meaning.

Irresistible Grace is a theory formed by man. You need to read the context of Rom. 9 to understand what it actually means. I have already explained that somewhere recently. It seems I do a lot of repeating myself, over and over and over....

I've used the KJV all of my life, never using another version. I agree there is safety in believing the words of the KJV Bible.

That statement will get you saved and the reason I know the Calvinists are saved. But just as Adam chose to disobey God through free will, I also have the same free will to choose my destiny, with or without God.

Wrong again! Our FAITH in Jesus Christ alone is the condition to salvation.

You can ignore and you have to ignore the "whosoever will's" found throughout Scripture to believe your theory.

That's what those old dead men have told you. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of Lord shall be saved." It's the drawing of the hearing of the Gospel through the power of the Holy Spirit that draws ALL men. But only those who believe will be chosen for redemption. That goes back to...

Christ said that if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. We don't share the same meaning of "draw." The Gospel draws all men but only those who believe will be chosen to be conformed in the image of Christ.

The good thing about BB is that you will hear the truth, you will see some very interesting controversies over Scripture in a wide range. Very good place to learn, to hear the details of any given matter from the understanding of some very smart people on Scripture. I've studied the Scripture...

Just as I had imagined, but maybe worse. Anything concerning Scripture doctrine is taken universally by Wik. Meaning thy consider all beliefs not to exclude any particular belief. They begin with of all things "soul sleep;" If I were you I would stay away from such garbage. You're much...

I'm not accustomed to taking anything from Wik concerning the Scripture. But I will read it if it's not to long.

Well I just learned something! I was not aware of your input on that conversation with Christ and the Sadducees. I've never seen it that way.
