For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears (2 Timothy 4:3) Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness (Isaiah...

All the signs are right here, right now! The Last Trump (1 Cor. 15:52) As the days of Noah……….. Marrying and giving in marriage (Matt. 24:38) I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. (Luke...

This extensive post proves that Tony has never understood a word we have said. For that matter, neither has Pastor DHK. Prayerfully there are others who have read the debates and gained valuable insight as to the nature of our holy God and His sovereign right to elect some for gracious...

Yes, the number and identity of the Elect has been determined according to the eternal purpose of God in Christ. And yes, the number and identity of the Reprobate has been determined according to the eternal purpose of God outside of Christ. Is not inconceivable that God had purposes in...

This is the kind of theology preached by the LBGT, same - sex marriage crowd. What is missing from this equation is 'God is holy.' And His holiness will not allow sin to go unpunished. Yes, God is love. He loves holiness and righteousness and justice. This is why He will judge the...

Yes, it does. As long as the sinner remains in unbelief. Yes. That judgment flows from His hatred for both the sin and the sinner. His wrath does not flow from His love. If it did, language would have no meaning. If wrath could be construed as love, then Hell might as well be...

The Jews killed the Gift. How much clearer must Scripture be before you realize Christ is the gift no unregenerate wants?

Yes. The Lord does give the unsaved the power to work miracles. If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, 2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not...

He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. him = the wicked unbeliever wrath = righteous anger abideth = continually remains on him

Contradictory wills in God? The Lord does not have contradictory wills. Yet in post #279 Pastor DHK insists that He does. The Pastor says the Lord is not willing for any person to perish. (2 Peter 3:9) The Pastor also admits the Lord willingly damns unbelievers and is not shy in saying...

Are you sure about that? [edited: now I am] The Apostle Paul is well aware of God's righteousness/fairness/being just. Then why were his detractors accusing Paul of teaching an unjust/unfair/unrighteous God when he gave the example of Jacob's election and Esau's reprobation based on the mere...

But Mormons and SDAs are all Arminians. Were they Calvinists, your point would be well made. Why do you suppose the cults are also Arminian?

Is it not amazing that the very ‘sin’ which the accusatory poster posits to those debating is the same ’sin’ he himself is guilty: the ‘sin’ of a know-it-all attitude. In his not so self-deprecating mind he has authoritatively rebuked those who eagerly give reasons for the hope which is in...

I can't help your confusion or your hostility to the truth. Neither could Icon. God knows he's tried. I suggest you ponder the fact that the men who crucified Christ carried out the will of God to the letter. Not one bone was broken in His body. Those men, as well as Judas and Pharaoh...

Absolutely. The Lord has several purposes met through His decrees......most of which we cannot begin to fathom! His ways are higher than our ways..........too high for us mortals to grasp.

The lump of clay is the lump in Adam who sinned willingly, thereby sentencing all his progeny to death. From this same fallen lump God has elected some to be recipients of His mercy. The rest He chooses to keep in their fallen state. How does God choose who is elect and who is...

Here is another biblical example proving God has predetermined just how far the sins of the Amorites will go before judgment is rendered: And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them...

Unfortunately, you completely misinterpret the point Paul is making. Had Paul said, "What if God willing to show His mercy and to make His grace known endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction." But alas, Paul actually said the very opposite. The reason...

Scripture has the answer: Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. (Rev. 4:11) Answer: It was not out of necessity, as if something was lacking in God which required Him to create...
