Matthew 12:8 NASB For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.” What is our understanding of this verse. Does Christ actually have authority over whatever rules anyone thinks govern our behavior from God? Hebrews 4:1-11

The issue is whether to advocate for people with flawed beliefs according to our understanding of scripture. Often, political candidates hide behind vague claims, (I am for family values?} leaving to the voter to ascribe their beliefs to the vague phrase. On the other hand, I see nothing wrong...

From the internet: If an idea, claim, or attempt stands or falls on something, its truth or success depends on that thing. Using this definition of the meaning of the phrase, then yes, Christianity does not stand or fall on the text of the New Testament. Christianity stands or falls on the...

The Greek text supports the translation that names were not written since the foundation of the world in the Lamb's book of life who was slain. Note how often false teachers rely on mistranslation to push false doctrine!!

All other religions are the devil's religion. My way or the highway religions that use compulsion seem destined to usher in the end of the age.

Does anyone believe this poster really has no idea or grasp of the topic? Jude 1:1, not Revelation 13:8. Neither do I.

As with other posters, Christ is the truth, the way and the life. No one comes to God except through Christ. Thus all other religions are false religions according to scripture. (John 14:6) What might make one false religion worse than say another? The "my way or the highway" religions...

Yes, I am not a Calvinist, I am a non-Calvinist. Yes, to clearly state the doctrines you believe are biblical is critical. Note all those posts addressing this or that doctrine which is not believed. That does not move the football. 1) "T" = Total spiritual inability. False doctrine...

Neither supports your claim. The NKJV uses your "Greek Text" and supports the true doctrine, the called have been set apart in Christ.

Note the obvious misrepresentation of the biblical doctrine? Does 2 Peter 2:1 show Christ redeemed lost people? Nope, but that is the mischaracterization. So we do not spend time discussing the actual biblical doctrine, but waste time addressing efforts to derail discussion. This is all they...

The doctrine is also know as: Preservation of the Saints.

I am a one point Calvinist, I voted the the "P" because I am in the once saved, always saved camp. I am a quasi two point Arminian, in that I believe Christ died for all mankind, and I believe God elects individuals based on crediting their faith as righteousness. And I am a different breed...

Yet another post of derailment, addressing petty bickering rather than the topic. This is what false teachers do, You claim the Greek word order governs phraseology. But no mention of the highly respected translations, NKJV and NASB clearly indicated that those termed "the called" referred to...

1) Ever notice those pushing false doctrine do not see a need to prove their view is valid, but boy do they want proof of other views 2) The idiom comparing the "many" to the "one" refers to everyone except the one, thus everyone else. 3) Of course the saved have been ransomed under the...

Yet another post of derailment, addressing petty bickering rather than the topic. This is what false teachers do, You claim the Greek word order governs phraseology. But no mention of the highly respected translations, NKJV and NASB clearly indicated that those termed "the called" referred to...

The guy heading for swift destruction (2 Peter 2:1) had been ransomed, as Christ laid down His life as a ransom for all, 1 Timothy 2:6. Ask yourselves, how many verses does false doctrine require to be tossed into the library bond-fire? Answer, all of them. Christ bought the person heading...

Posting obfuscation is not responding. Now you claim the Greek word order governs phraseology. But no mention of the highly respected translations, NKJV and NASB clearly indicated that those termed "the called" referred to their being set apart in Christ.

Once again addressing me and running from the topic. This is all false teachers have in their empty sack. 1) Running from the comparison of Revelation 17:8 with Revelation 13:8, as a consistent translation shows it is the names not written which is described as happening since the foundation...

No, that was a non response. Now you claim the Greek word order governs phraseology. But no mention of the highly respected translations, NKJV and NASB clearly indicated those termed "the called" resulted in being set apart in Christ.

Like many others, I will miss learning new insights into God's word from a gifted teacher. He laid out his arguments clearly so even on those occasions where I thought he was a tad off target, he had provided the scriptural references to lead me to my sometimes differing conclusion. A...
