We are almost on the same page here at least as far as the results are concerned. Either one of our views of Eph 2 is still opposed to Calvinism. But I do believe the Bible is pretty clear on the subject of being born in sin, and if we are born in sin, then we are born dead in sin. "Behold, I...

A Message For The Hermeneutically Impaired You gave scripture and I gave it back. So if your argument is that any person who quotes scripture is the winner, Genesis 1:1, there, I quoted scripture so now I'm ahead. Look up "Red Herring" arguments while you're at it. Secondly, do you even...

I have lived in Israel all of my life with the exception of a few years in the US. I have never heard of what you claim about how Arab Christians are treated. And be my guest in reporting what I said so I can report all of this anti Semitic crap.

I would be willing to bet you have never met an Arab Christian AT ALL in Israel. Arab Christians in Israel get treated far worse by Islamic terrorists than by anyone else in Israel. No Christian living in Israel period is respected very well because Israel as a whole has not yet accepted Christ...

Speaking from personal experience I disagree. Both of my grandparents were murdered by Arabs in the late 1940s. There was no over all peace, we still did not have our capital, Jerusalem back, and Winston Churchhill was refusing Jews into Israel during WW2, and often sent ships of Jews BACK TO...

Explanation of the doctrine of justification and sanctification would be a stumbling block as well. So you know what I do when I am talking to a potential convert? I don't explain the doctrine of justification to them just yet. If one believes that using "begotten" would present a problem then...

Martin Luther was killing anabaptists, so I could see why he would praise Calvin. Neither one of them ever repented of their Catholic sacrament practices and infant baptism. (Luther: “With a death sentence they solve all argumentation” [Juergan L. Neve, A History of Christian Thought, vol. I, p...

What would be more confusing to a potential convert? Explaining the meaning of begotten if you have to (assuming you use John 3:16 instead of the "Romans Road" which is fine), or explaining the verse from several different bible versions? I think the latter would be much more confusing. Even the...

A literal translation from which text...I know, do you! Since it's a literal translation of the NIV, shouldn't be too hard to figure out :) This is what the text actually says: Οὕτως γὰρ ἠγάπησεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν κόσμον ὥστε τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν μονογενῆ ἔδωκεν ἵνα πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων εἰς αὐτὸν μὴ...

I'll take Biblical Approach to Music And Fine Arts for 200 please, Alex :)

If you have seen my website at Do Right Christians (dorightchristians.wordpress.com) the very top section is "Will Kinney's KJV Index". Will Kinney is a die-hard Calvinist, but a defender of the KJV. And speaking of Calvinist friends that disagree with James White and his straw man arguments...

Since when does Israel need the approval of an "international agreement" to occupy our own land? The US didn't get "international approval" when it took land from the Indians. Israel is the size of the smallest state in your country, and the so-called "Palestinians" have 20 other oil rich...

Sure, we can debate all of the evils of Israel, as long as I get to debate the evils of America, the headquarters of the CFR, Illuminati, Free Mason Grand Lodge of the world, the IMF; how your own government was behind 911, how the Bush's were behind assassinating your own president and who also...

Ever notice how these racist Aryan and Klan statistics don't point out that all of these "terrorist" attacks were against those who have been attacking Israel for 1500 years and attempted to prevent Balfour from granting them any land, and then continued to attack them when they returned. Yet...

Hitler was real good as making public declarations about Jewish "terrorists" as well.

All of those verses you quoted were about God proving that everything that God had promised to fulfill that was meant to be fulfilled IN THAT TIME PERIOD were done. That does not mean that prophecies promised to Israel that were yet future were completed somewhere in the OT. Besides, Isaiah...

There may be some popular Baptist preachers that are more recognized because of their public statements (David Cloud, Peter Ruckman, Lance Ketchum, Robert Sumner, John Piper, Matt Olsen, et al) but because the they are still independent Baptists, you will be very hard pressed to find anything...

That was exactly what I meant by it obscures the meaning of monogenes. Regardless of where the ROOT came from the WORD in the texts (whether TR or A and B, or the Egyptian Papyri) was still monogenes. And "only begotten" emphasizes that there is no other kind like Christ because He is God. The...

Zechariah was quoted as a general reference to how any nation treats Israel. It was not quoted to show what blessings I have as a Jew which in this age are irrelevant since Israel as a nation is spiritually under blindness (Romans 11:25), and there is neither Jew nor Greek (Gal 3:27-28). The...
