    The Doctrines of Grace, as Seen in the Old Testament.

    The Covenant of Grace, and therefore, The Teachings or Doctrines of Grace, was a Compact in Eternity, between the three Divine Persons, Father, Son, and Spirit in which each Person agreed to take His part in the Economy of man's Salvation. The word 'doctrine' has to do with something...

    The Doctrines of Grace, as Seen in the Old Testament.

    The 'free-will' position is utterly dependent on mindless contradictions and an unshakable devotion to illiteracy, most importantly, in observing an absolute obliviousness to any context in any way, under any circumstances, using "private interpretation", including viewing, considering, and...

    Thank you so much. It's all Him, as you well know. Praise the Lord God, our Savior!

    The Doctrines of Grace, as Seen in the Old Testament.

    Limited Atonement; God purposed to redeem a certain people and not others; 1Ch 17:20-21 O LORD, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. And what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whom God went to...

    The Doctrines of Grace, as Seen in the Old Testament.

    Total Depravity; “Here we are dealing with the nature and extent of sin, and the point is that we are all radically sinful, so much so that we cannot take even the smallest steps toward God unless he first intervenes” The Fall of the Race in Adam. “It is . . . a description of human beings...

    Was the Nkjv translated from same sorce texts as used by the 1611 translators for Kjv then?

    Try "The Newest King James New World Translation", since they agree with The New World Translation in places where you'd never know The King James ever existed, as was the NKJV's partially undisclosed ulterior motive, i.e., to be a 'Transition Translation', between the KJV and The New World...

    Was the Nkjv translated from same sorce texts as used by the 1611 translators for Kjv then?

    Because your version of the truth can't be substantiated, and no one aware of the texts the NKJV people claimed to use would ever try. 'Consulted', 'borrowed many renderings'. The King James translators had a very exalted view of any manuscripts related to being associated with the origins of...

    Do You Know the Baptist Distinctives?

    In his "Body of Doctrinal & Practical and Doctrinal Divinity, By John Gill, Book 4, Chapter 1": "Of the Manifestation and Administration of the Covenant of Grace," there is a section here where he talks about the agreement between the Old Testament and the New Testament and covers The Covenant...

    Do You Know the Baptist Distinctives?

    For example, The Doctrines of Grace are shown in the Old Testament from this Google AI Overview; "The Doctrines of Grace, often associated with Calvinism (TULIP), are indeed reflected in the Old Testament, showcasing God's sovereign grace in salvation history long before the New Testament...

    Do You Know the Baptist Distinctives?

    You're leaving out all of the Doctrines of Grace throughout the Old Testament, as well as in all of the New Testament Books, and as thoroughly covered by the Early church fathers, and; "STATEMENTS FROM RELIABLE HISTORIANS." "Able historians, not Baptists, have made statements which confirm...

    Do You Know the Baptist Distinctives?

    Augustine certainly was partially influential to Calvin in some areas, I'm sure. Probably some that were too bad, if I remember and find out what they were in my notes. That's called, "I'll have to check and see 'what I believe' on that."

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    What about why the ‘New King James Version’ in 1 Corinthians 1:18, says; “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” when the New World Translation, in 1 Corinthians 1:18, says; “For the speech about the...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    Why does the ‘New King James Version’ in Romans 1:25, say; “who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.” when the New World Translation, in Romans 1:25, says; “They exchanged the truth of God for...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    Do you care to explain why the ‘New King James Version’ in Acts 17:22, says; “Then Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, “Men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are very religious.” when the Roman Catholic New American Bible (NAB), in Acts 17:22, says; “Then Paul...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    Then, can you explain why the ‘New King James Version’ in Acts 3:26, says; “To you first, God, having raised up His Servant Jesus, sent Him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your iniquities.” when the New World Translation, in Acts 3:26, says; “God, after raising up his...

    What Constitutes a Bona Fide Offer?

    Where would anyone come up with the idea of "an offer" that has ever been made "to the unbelieving"? Is there anyone you know of who is making "an offer" to the unbelieving? Who is it that says, "come and be free with me in my kingdom" Is there a rule written down somewhere that states, "I...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    But using the name Lucifer did two things at once: readers would understand it as a name, while also understanding the semantic link between the name and the concept of 'light', due to the many other words in the lux word family. Transliterating הֵילֵל directly would have completely obscured...

    Should the Bible say "Lucifer" or "morning star" in Isaiah 14:12? A Plain, Straightforward Bible Treatment of "LUCIFER" in Isaiah 14:12.

    That's why I was talking about looking mostly before this Reformation idea. The OED gives five instances of Lucifer being used as a proper noun before the KJV was written: The earliest citation there, Christ & Satan, is an Old English poem which could date from as early as the seventh...

    How do Fundamental Baptists view other Baptists then?

    These 5 items listed below (with 'no, no , no , no & yes' as their respective answers), along with 'Authority in *Baptism' not listed yet, (which can be explained to the best of my ability later), will pretty much cover what could be termed a Historic 'Fundamental' Baptist. Those kind of...
