What is it? I would prefer answers with scripture.

So God manipulated me into saying yes against my own will? and that's suppose to be love and picture of marriage? So did you all manipulate your wives into marrying you? Saying yes is what causes regeneration, not the other way around.

Why is it that a majority of the scribes and Pharisees desired to kill Jesus? Your whole majority and scholarship appeal does not prove truth. "Most scientists believe in evolution"

Willingly... My point is there is a still a choice involved here. Gomer did not have to go back to Hosea. she choose to.

Angels lived to see God in his glory in Heaven, We have not, I believe this is why God has chosen to allow redemption for mankind.

SDAs do not believe in a eternal hell, they constantly redefine eternal and everlasting when it comes to the hell and the lake of fire, yet they do not apply these same terms to Salvation or Heaven. Their soul sleep doctrine draws from verses taken out of context in the poetical books, they...

I think Calvinism's doctrine of predestination and total depravity really ruins the picture of marriage, What kind of woman wants to marry a man that she has no free will in doing so? How is that love? It's plain manipulation by the stronger party. Calvinism's God is a cold heartless God who...

This is false, King James was approached by a handful of bishops who were requesting a revision.

thank you.

So to all you holier-than-thou's out there how would you handle these thorny questions from your child? Remember, don't lie. 10 year old: "Mom, will we see our dog Muffy in heaven after she dies?" I don't know. 18 year old: "Have you ever smoked pot?" Yes and it ruined my life and my...

So telling the truth is legalism? if that's so than I'd rather be legalistic than a sinner any day.

I think people on the BB really need to learn what this verse means: Col_4:6 Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. Just because someone has a theological difference does not mean we are allowed to result to name calling...

Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Tit 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and...

I mean think about how many people sit in church and go just for the benefits that might be there but are not there because they really believe in Christ? How many of these disciples were following Jesus for the benefits without trusting in him and repenting of their sins? I think based on...

Unless it be given - And it is given to those only who will receive it on God's own terms. (Commentary By Wesley.) I think the verse is saying that no man can receive salvation without God's grace of giving salvation to him, obviously no man can earn salvation so there is an aspect of God's...

Bob, If forgiveness revoked is true, and someone loses their salvation because they refused to forgive someone who has wronged them, How do they get saved again? is forgiveness a work that must be done in order to get salvation. You obviously won't answer this question that has been posed many...

I guess I could supply backround. I met a young lady at bible college this semester, we are both called to the same field :Youth Ministry, This was established before either of us met, we talked a little bit, Her Father is a youth Pastor and we are both IFB of identical beliefs and standards. I...

I understand you may disagree with the KJO or TR position, but you cannot honestly say there are no scholars who hold to the TR.

What do you consider good textual scholarship? This book I'm reading right now is what I would consider good solid textual scholarship for the T.R./KJV. I suggest you read it. Early MSS, Church Fathers, and the A.V. by J.A. Moorman. I find your statement rather prideful. What do you...

In the KJV and possibly other versions I'm not quite sure, you'll often see this mark: ¶ This mark is called a pilcrow and from my research it's used to show breaks between paragraphs. My question is this: Where do these pilcrows come from? who put them into the text? are paragraph breaks...
