    Examining some of the misguided claims of 316 Tradionalists

    You're question was to Steaver but...Do Calvinists have cold hearts? I don't think so as I've had many friends of their opinion. I don't think it has to do with the heart but rather the head. I know this sounds like an insult but I mean it only in the way people can be right in their hearts but...

    Examining some of the misguided claims of 316 Tradionalists

    Steaver I'm very much opposed to Calvinistic teachings but you know this same question might be asked and is asked among those on the other side as well. Well if I have kids and they don't choose rightly for God even with God offering Salvation for all? It is heartbreaking to think one can do...

    Examining some of the misguided claims of 316 Tradionalists

    No of course not. Why would it be? No for I'm absolutely confident God will dispense mercy in such a way that doesn't run contrary to all things he's established about his character and nature. That character is one which displays no hypocrisy or respect to persons. When God gives the Command...

    Be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: where do you draw the line?

    Wouldn't this be an area like where Romans 14:5 states, "Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind"? This is an area where you're talking about how far one can go with their conscious approving or disapproving. For the reason that everyone is at a different level of spiritual growth or...

    Did God Create Life Elsewhere in Universe?

    As for me I can never really get into watching Star Trek. It seems too much like a Halloween costume party. :Cool

    Did God Create Life Elsewhere in Universe?

    Well the world is chomping at the bit to want to announce they've found life in the beyond. I think with this latest Mars report it's something like the building blocks that potentially create life but they'll push it as life. As to will it shake me up if other life was discovered or revealed...

    Examining some of the misguided claims of 316 Tradionalists

    And you'd admit a great many choices about things people make are good choices? If one chooses to help out a friend? If one gives to the poor? If one speaks encouraging words to one discouraged? If one helps pay someone's medical bills? Or if one chooses to do good things for their children...

    Examining some of the misguided claims of 316 Tradionalists

    Yeah that's Bible. But have you captured the true meaning of words and concepts used hundreds of years ago. Ephesians 2: 3 states, "Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh..." I'll talk about the word "conversation". Do you believe the verse in...

    Examining some of the misguided claims of 316 Tradionalists

    Actually I think the proper order is spirit, soul and body which was the usual order Paul described the structure of man 1 Thessalonians 5:23, and there's a reason for that...BUT...such is another subject. So what part of man didn't suffer the effects of the fall? The part of man which Jesus...

    Jerry Walls wicked and profane question about God..part2

    And is there anything in your presentation if you're preaching to a crowd which says Christ died for YOUR sins according to the scriptures? Is there anything in which you say to the crowd God loves them and sent Jesus to die for their sins? If one in the crowd stood up and asked how can any of...

    Jerry Walls wicked and profane question about God..part2

    Yes that is good news isn't it...that those being reconciled or better put have been reconciled don't have their sins credited to their account. The WORLD has been stamped with redemption! Well does this therefore mean ALL WILL make heaven their home? NO. One must move this into the realm of...

    Was it Wrong to Drop the Atom Bomb on Japan?

    I think this is a fascinating question one of which I've talked to people about for years. Was it right or wrong for the U.S. to do something so catastrophic? I can't deny there are good arguments made by those who differ in opinion. I wonder if the answer to this would be different if the...

    Calvinism and the warning passages

    Well if it's preordained that people will hear that he decides will hear than why the warnings by Jesus, to "Take heed what you hear: with what measure you measure it will be measured to you and unto you who hear shall more be given" Mark 4: 23,24 Doesn't that clearly bring out the fact that...

    Jerry Walls wicked and profane question about God..part2

    And we can notice what it says....God was in Christ reconciling (what?) THE WORLD unto himself, not just the lucky ones or the especially blessed. I'm sorry but I'm thinking if it were as Calvinists put forth that God was just reconciling only the elect to himself it would have read that...

    How Wicked Were the People of Noah's Day? And Why No Detail?

    Well however evil they were in the days of Noah it was enough for God to say enough is enough and pull the plug. I'm thinking we must be at that some place today and God is merely finishing off a few things before judgements as in Revelations begin to take place. Even if that's 10-20 years up...

    Rosanne gone after one ill-advised tweet

    Well....it is sad in a sense. I think it's sad for anyone who jumps out there and makes the mistake of being so derogatory not using words that build up and encourage but rather to insult. There's sadly no shortage of that in present society and it makes me wonder for a culture that likes to...

    Trey Gowdy: Trump frustration with Sessions justified

    Wouldn't that be the same as saying someone is a Christian because they're on the church rolls?
