KY when you cannot see the truth then it is only through concern for your eternal soul that I point out yours errors.

Not what the bible says but you seem to be comfortable with that particular view. Even Sproul recognized the folly of your view. “Once Luther grasped the teaching of Paul in Romans, he was reborn” (R. C. Sproul, The Holiness of God, 1993 edition, p. 144). You keep putting the card before the...

Your post # 300 does not support what you think it does Ken. When you deny clear scripture then it is not the word of God you believe but yourself and those that teach what you want to believe.

Ky your mind is so clouded by your calvinism that you are unable to see the truth right in front of you.

So you think someone is saved prior to them trusting in God. Wrong but that has been pointed out to calvinists any many times.

Unregenerate man can make decisions that please God. Unless all the children of Israel were regenerate/saved, your argument is nonsensical.

We are told in Rom 1:16 “the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes” If, as you are suggesting, only those that are already saved can understand the gospel message then why preach the gospel message of salvation to those that are already saved? If man has no...

Part 2 of Freewill as Taught in Scripture All these OT verses clearly confirm that man, even an unregenerate man, can exercise a free-will in a manner pleasing to God. Even God is said to exercise His freewill in Hos_14:4. The translation in Psa_68:9 was obviously determined with some...

Here is an article that should help clear up your confusion. Freewill as Taught in Scripture by Brian H. Wagner, Ph.D., instructor of church history, theology and biblical languages at Virginia Baptist College How often have I read in various Facebook theological discussions the declaration...

Of course I have fun even when dealing with serious discussions. I always enjoy talking about the word of God. Don't you?

My My, You really are a one trick pony, aren't you? I have to ask why you want to make the resurrection of no import? If we were saved by His death then the whole world would be saved as His death covered all our sins. 1Jn 2:2 he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only but...

We really should not tease them like this. But it is fun.:)

Now KY you are just jealous that people like @Charlie24 and myself choose to trust in the living God. We were not special but we are now, were saved. You have to hope that you were actually picked out as you really have no way of knowing for sure do you?

So according to your view Since God desires all to be saved 1Ti 2:4 He was either lying or He does not have the power to carry out His desire. Further according to you He has to determine all things or nothing comes to pass so He is responsible for all the sin and evil. No the God of scripture...

It made all mankind savable. Col 1:11-22 was written to believers in Colossae Col 1:2 "To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are at Colossae:..." So since they are saints that tells us that they had freely trusted in God for their salvation. Well what does the bible tells us...

In regard to the PSA non-PSA debate. I have not looked into that very much so cannot give a learned response. As for the A vs C debate I see it it as an in house disagreement. We are all saved by the grace of God.

No I do not think that Paul was mixed-up when he wrote either of those texts but why would you seemly dismiss a clear text on the subject at hand? You said "but it is in His death that we are saved" but the verses you referenced do not address the issue directly although Rom 5:10 does which is...

Just one point that I think you have overlooked @Martin Marprelate. Paul does not agree with you: You said "but it is in His death that we are saved" Paul says: Rom 5:10 For if, when we were enemies of God, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been...

You almost got that right. He foreknows all who will freely trust in Him but none are saved until they freely trust in Him. It is the error of your man-made theology that has God save a particular group. Joh 3:17 "For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the...

If we had a group of angels that were selected not to fall then you have to wonder why God would select a group to fall as then He would be working against Himself. But what we see is that Satan made the choice to reject the authority of God and 1/3 of the angels chose to follow him. So for me...
