I'm not really arguing for Van's point on that particular comment of his. It was a supplemental comment added to a partial section of his post. It was more of a paranthetical statement. Not saying I agree or disagree, I'd have to go back and read his argument, but my statement was not intended...

So when I don't use "Biblical knowledge" I get criticized for not using Scripture, but when I do use it, I get accused of "acting superior". Gotcha:thumbsup:

I fail to see why you argue with anyone. It is clear that Yeshua was forced to write what he did. Yeshua did not choose to write an opinion that is different from yours but by the sovereign act of God Yeshua wrote what he wrote. Thus if what Yeshua wrote was the divine act of God, then why are...

Paul is also referring to those who were not saved who refused to repent. Notice just a few short verses later Paul says "and such WERE some of you". 1 Cor 6:11. It is not that these sins keep from heaven, but that some men (like the Rich Young Ruler in Matthew 19) understand that coming to...

God being sovereign does not mean that He controls and forces humans and creation to act without will or designed function. The first verse (Prov 16:4) merely shows that what God created, He created for Himself. That does not state that He forces creation or humans to operate without will or...

The first 3 are a little easier to address because they are more of habits that reflect what a person does, not necessarily who they are, and is not likely to affect those around them. Most smokers don't smoke in church, most gluttons don't eat a whole box of donuts at the prayer meeting, and a...

Scripture and verse that shows natural events are always under God's control. If that were true, they would not be called "natural". Just because God permits it, doesn't mean He is controlling it. In Job is one example of the permissive will of God. "And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold...

I have heard Pat Robertson blame such disasters on sin and judgment as well which I believe is horrendous. What many forget is that Satan is the god of this world (2 Cor 4:4) and that he is also called the "prince of the power of the air" (Eph 2:2). When God permitted Satan to try Job, I...

PART 2 From This Thread, each response I gave with Scripture as well as the arguments you did not respond to. http://www.baptistboard.com/showthread.php?t=86145 Post #53 Post #57 Failed to respond to argument on Matthew 23:39, Genesis 3:9, Romans 1:17, and John 17:12. Instead, you bypassed...

To address your petty straw man argument: Post 107 was a response to a question about an opinion as to what I thought a partial Calvinist was. I was not aware there was a Bible verse that defines a partial Calvinist. Perhaps it's in Hezekiah chapter 1, if you find it let me know. Post 112...

No Calvinist do not believe in free will. If you think that Calvinism teaches free will or that a sinner can willingly and freely come to Christ, it is you who do not understand Calvinism. However,the fact that you used an older sermon by Charles Spurgeon where he preached against free will...

You don't get off that easy. Your statement was that I did not respond to you at all, and that I never used Scripture. Now you can either own that statement, and I will show you the posts from the archives that say you are incorrect, or you can admit that you made a statement without checking it...

Spurgeon Come and Welcome, 1859: "II. In the second place we observe from the text that the invitation is very wide—"WHOSOEVER WILL, LET HIM TAKE THE WATER OF LIFE FREELY." How wide is this invitation! There are some ministers who are afraid to invite sinners, then why are they ministers! for...

Cute...at least you used a verse:thumbsup: If I can point to just ONE post where I not only responded to you, but used scripture to back up my argument, will you admit that you are a liar! If not, no point in responding to you because that sums it up.

I answered you in several other posts, and when you responded, you scattered your response over about 10 different posts, and ignored 50% of what I said, and even others noticed that you failed to respond to a majority of what I argued. And even on the James White issue, when I gave my second...

The type of fish were what the Jews normally broiled (ynynwm) and is using the diminutive. They were small fish. But, not being privy to Jewish culture one may not get that. That is the very meaning of the root optos However, the rendering of "just fishes" doesn't say the fish are any bigger...
