    A thread in Baptist Theology and Bible Study Forum. Or Fuller v. Gill

    Ok, and yes He will. That church is obviously drawing on other's missionary work or their own fertility as in having kids to grow. And the idea is not really wrong. The apostles preached the word in various cities, and churches formed. It just wont happen that no one is going out as a...

    A thread in Baptist Theology and Bible Study Forum. Or Fuller v. Gill

    Purely theoretical, does never happen. What they are saying is God is insufficient to teach to them the gospel by His Spirit. God works just like Christ says according to the pattern he has established. John 6 44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will...

    A thread in Baptist Theology and Bible Study Forum. Or Fuller v. Gill

    1 Timothy 1 15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should...

    A thread in Baptist Theology and Bible Study Forum. Or Fuller v. Gill

    John Gill and the Charge of Hyper-Calvinism « Biographia Evangelica I noticed this here, this would take a lot of time to study to identify all the subtleties, and it mentions HALL and school of latter years, so you know what happens, other people enter in and modify the ideas of those who came...

    A thread in Baptist Theology and Bible Study Forum. Or Fuller v. Gill

    Interesting, though what Fuller wrote in my post #39, how could he not believe in eternal justification as God determined in himself who would believe and who would not. that seems very inconsistant. Was it perhaps more along he was referring to the apostasy of (false) believers who had...

    A thread in Baptist Theology and Bible Study Forum. Or Fuller v. Gill

    Fuller even clearly says your believing faith is the gift of God. I actually dont comprehend how any hyper Calvinist could assume to know someone is not elect to be saved and therefore you dont exhort such to repent and believe as only God can know that and they are not Him. That seems quite a...

    Did Andrew Fuller modify Calvinism? - Credo Magazine But my concern is not so much there right now as with regard to some recent statements circulating about Andrew Fuller made by Dr W R Estep. Contrary to Dr Estep’s “Calvinizing Southern Baptists” (was that his title? And has not this piece...

    A thread in Baptist Theology and Bible Study Forum. Or Fuller v. Gill

    Fuller The Non-Calvinist? Fuller is Calvinist in his theology as far I have read about him. The videos are pretty long and complex to follow and likely influenced by the presenter's bias. He seems not to be Arminian at all. In the second edition of Fuller’s The Gospel Worthy of All...

    A thread in Baptist Theology and Bible Study Forum. Or Fuller v. Gill

    I will look at a video later Yes it should. Preachers are preaching a message and they have no clue where the seeds are falling, like what kind of ground it lands on. Refer to the parable of the sower of the seeds However we should have no expectations or show favoritisms as God is the one...

    In 8-1 SCOTUS Ruling, Chief Justice John Roberts Is The Only One To Side Against Christian Students

    So you disagree with the the other 8 justices then, interesting. And agree with Roberts. I am surprised the other 8 justices agreed on this case. But not surprised about Roberts. Something fishy going on with his decisions, as in stinky. SC decisions set precedents for future situations, which...

    Calvinism, The fruit of scriptural truth pt3.

    Parables not explained, might as well be in a strange tongue, none of those on the outside understood what he was saying or teaching in the parable. Yes HE did utter things kept secret from the foundation of the world, but none of it was understood, the meaning to those on the outside remained a...

    Calvinism, The fruit of scriptural truth pt3.

    Parables hide the truth of the message, while still having people hear the word of God, and that is how Christ spoke to the people on the outside of their group. To them on the outside they did not have a clue what he was talking about. But they were able to hear it, but not comprehend what the...

    Calvinism, The fruit of scriptural truth pt3.

    And for confirmation again, so that seeing they may not see and hearing they may not understand. The intention is not to have them see or understand the meaning. Christ privately explains the meaning. But in public taught in parables. Christ taught the disciples not using parables alone, when...

    Calvinism, The fruit of scriptural truth pt3.

    Mark 4 The Purpose of Parables 10 But when He was alone, those around Him with the twelve asked Him about the parable. 11 And He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables, 12 so that ‘Seeing they...

    Acts 17 and Total Inability

    God commands all men to repent and believe. But of course why not, all here means all mankind all over the earth, Paul is saying Jesus is not a local God of the Jewish religion only, Paul brings that point out in his comment on the 'to the unknown god inscription' on an altar. 22 Then Paul...

    Calvinism, The fruit of scriptural truth pt3.

    Yes Christ speaks to them who are without in parables so that they do not understand. And not with a goal of making them understand Very much the opposite of what we would expect. The truth is revelation of Christ must come from God to a man and not by the minds of men, the wisdom of words of...

    Acts 17 and Total Inability

    Adam and Eve knew they had been bad in disobeying what God had said. So imagine your own self in the same place. You would want to hide yourself. At least then you still have a sense of shame, some in this world lose that. People can still experience similar feelings today, they do something...

    The Holy Spirit teaches spiritually, and not in words of man's wisdom 1 Corinthians 2:13 These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. The Holy Spirit gives spiritually as a gift from Him an...

    Some ideas about why he is swinging to the LEFT, there are nastier ones. But one is hatred of Trump. Why Did SC Justice John Roberts Swing Left? Here’s One Theory In June, Chief Justice Roberts was the deciding vote allowing LGBT rights to be shoehorned into the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The...

    This guy the same one who was heard screaming and yelling at other SC justices, not to take up election fraud cases. There is something else potentially going on involving some adopted family members or something with him democrats know of , like they have some dirt on him, allegations I have...
