BF you are so focused on your philosophy that you continue to miss what is right in front of you. That the purpose of God according to election which fulfills God's word to Abraham might stand. {Gen_12:2-3 ff} Gods' choice was while they were in the womb before they were born not before they...

Baptist thought There are two opposed philosophies: Lordship Salvation teaches that to obtain Salvation one must obey a set of rules within faith. (how you dress, length of hair etc. Legalism). Easy believism teaches all you have to do is say a prayer and how you live afterward has no effect...

@Dave G this is what you wrote "Paul is telling Timothy that prayers, etc. be made for all men. He then goes on to tell him who the "all men " are that we are to pray for... All that are in authority." So as you understand Paul's words we are to only pray for men in authority. But that would...

@JesusFan I have to conclude that you are using Eph 1:4 as your justification for your stated view. No one is predestined to election. God’s sovereign choice from eternity was 1] to save those that would believe in Christ Jesus 2] that His people be holy and blameless before Him...

Wesley this is how I would understand what Paleouss is saying but I do stand to be corected if he has a different view. Rev 20:12 "And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, .... And the dead were judged according to their works, ..." The dead before this throne are evidently...

Good morning Paleouss Your question points out a Calvinist problem. They have divided the world into two groups the "elect", those saved from before the foundation of the world and the "non-elect", those that are damned from before the foundation of the world. Reconciliation does mean the...

Now you are just playing games. Paul told you why he said to include "Kings and those in authority" in their prayers, all you had too do was keep reading for the answer "that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty" But it seems that the average calvinist has a...

Of course God's will will be done and the bible is clear that He desires all men & women to come to Him. Why do you have such a hard time admitting that. He is not looking at types of people but at people. Calvinism errors in their understanding of what those verses tell us. God can force what...

Your logic is really flawed. What would make you think I have to know each persons name. I pray for all the political leaders of Canada, Alberta and my home city but I do not know all their names. Just as I pray the all people would come to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus as the idea of...

To be consistent through the text you have to see that 'All' refers to all men, not types as you are suggesting. giving of thanks, be made for all men for kings, and for all that are in authority {they are included in the "all men"} who will have all men to be saved who gave himself a ransom...

Very well spoken Jon.

Yes. 1Co 15:3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 1Co 15:4 and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, Rom 5:10 For if while we were enemies we...

Wrong KY. I do not treat the bible like it is a book of one liners as many of one particular view want to do. The whole bible is the word of God and gives a consistent message, God loves His creation and desires all to be saved.

That is your opinion KY. Christ said He would draw all to Himself and we are to to preach the gospel to all and God desires that all repent and will judge all for how they respond to the various means that He has provided for man to know Him. You want to limit the love of God go ahead but I...

C.O.F.F.E.E. CHRIST OFFERS FORGIVENESS FOR EVERYONE EVERYWHERE Mat_11:28 "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Not according to the calvinist view. See there you go boasting again and you do not even realize it. You think you are one of those pre chosen elect. You boast that you were picked B4 creation so you must think you are in some way special or why else would He pick you and not some other person...

What do I not understand about the Rom 5 passage? You make the claim but you have not provided any counter view.

@Layman BF knows the bible needed to defend his calvinist position but I do question whether he knows his bible. It has been shown many times that what he things is biblical is clearly not and yet he will not even consider that he could be wrong. That is just blind allegiance to a position.

Have you looked at what the calvinists post on here. You all say you were chosen B4 the foundation of the world. That my friend is boasting in that you think you were so special that God had to pick you out way back then. By your own words you point to just how special you must have been since...

@Zaatar71 you have to understand that BF has a different view on any number of things.
