It is a perfectly clear answer, and I am amazed that you are still asking the same question. If your mother ate your breakfast for you as well as giving it to you, you have my sympathies, but otherwise, again, stop being to silly.

I think you'll find I have. You have just asked another four, which makes me wonder why I bothered to answer your first one. I think you are trying to change text of Acts 5:31 to read, '...That He might offer repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel. Unfortunately for you, that is not how...

I really don't think you have and nor do I think you have read my post #185, where I answered your question. Let me give you a hint. When you were little and your mother gave you your breakfast, does that men she ate it for you as well? Now stop being so silly.

I'm not stopping him. I don't think you have read Acts 5:31, because if you had you wouldn't ask such a silly question. Here is the text; read it again. 'Him [Christ] God has exalted to His right hand to be Prince and Saviour, to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins.' What do...

Why don't you just read Acts 5:31?

Perhaps I may put a different point of view here? ἀπ᾿ ἀρχῆς is found in several hundred ancient Greek MSS, while ἀπαρχήν is found, I believe, in 16. Interestingly, Codex Sinaiticus has the former, while Codex Vaticanus gives the latter. Usually they are united. While the NET is right in...

Hebrews 10:25. '... Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.' Both :).

Acts 16:31. 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.' John 6:37. 'All that the Father gives Me will come to Me.....' The giving of people by the Father to the Son comes first. The coming of those people comes afterwards. Your system has people coming to Christ first, and...

1 Tim. 2:1. 'Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men ....' So, @Silverhair, do you make supplications, prayers, intercessions and thanksgiving for all nine billion people in the world today? If God desired every single...

Acts 4:11-12. 'This is the "stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone." Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.'

I have suddenly noticed that I made a mistake in my opening sentence. The two main groups in the UK that are KJV-only are the Bible League and the Trinitarian Bible Society. Sorry for the error. The Bible Society is definitely NOT KJV-only.

No. It is as I have said. Both adultery and homosexuality are named as sins in both Testaments, as you would know if you read them. But Christins no longer stone people for either of those sins, but follow our Lord in calling them to repentance. BTW, there is more on the subject of...

You are aware, I suppose, that the Lord Jesus Himself declared the judicial part of the O.T. law obsolete, though the seventh commandment remains in force (James 2:11 etc.). Christians are no longer (and haven't been for 2,000 years) stoning adulterers, but rather telling them, "Go and sin no...

:rolleyes: It's a pity that you still don't. No. 1 Peter 1:2. 'Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father......' What does that mean? Romans 8:29. 'For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be confirmed to the image of His Son.' Those God foreknew, He predestined to be in...

I wonder which text you are thinking of. Eph. 2:8 says that we are saved by grace through faith, 'and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.' Faith is the instrumental means of our salvation; not the reason for it.

Your post is correct concerning some Hyper-Calvinists, but Calvinists do not believe that anyone is saved before he believes. People may be elect from eternity, but they are saved when they believe. I'm a bit surprised that aftermaking what must be hundreds of posts on this forum, you don't...

Not to me. :)

Well, here we go then. You have this idea that people are 'spiritually transferred into Christ.' You are, I suppose, thinking of Col. 1:13, but that text speaks of us being transferred into the kingdom of Christ. That we are united to Christ through faith is true, but I'm not sure why you...

I can't help the feeling that you are being either a bit dense or unnecessarity argumentative. However, in case I haven't been clear, This is my understanding: a pastor is an elder/overseer/bishop. I am concerned that there should ideally be more than one of these in every church, so that...

Well that's a good start in seeking consensus, isn't it. But the fact appears to be that you don't want feedback, you want agreement. Unfortunately, your whole theology is wrong, pretty much from start to finish, but you won't take advice, but react with hostility. If you wanted feedback, you...
