I would really like Bob to respond to how one gets his revoked forgiveness back? is forgiveness now a requirement for salvation? or is Bob misinterpreting the passages in Matthew?

You cannot find an excuse for ignoring the Bible details in Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 3:28, and Titus 3:5 by redefining terms. OR trying to add "inference" to Matt 18 and 6 in order to cancel out Ephesians 3:8-9, ROmans 3:28, and Titus 3:5. It does not work.

1st John 5:7 appears in 4 Greek MSS, and is in Latin MSS and is quoted by early church fathers. here's a quote from John Wesley: JOHN WESLEY commented on 1 John 5:7 saying: " I would insist only on the direct words, unexplained, just as they lie in the text: "There are three that bear record...

I bet if it was sold on the show pawn stars they'd get like 75 bucks for it....

I probably fit in with either the textual argument or the received text argument myself.

The NKJV has critical text readings and is not faithful to the TR

I am familiar with the W and Hort Theory, it involves the favoring of minority manuscripts, basically whenever A agrees with B They adopt the Reading, or wherever A agrees with another manuscript, or B with another manuscript they adopt the readings. It's largely built on the superstitious...

Depends on what kind of area i'm in, and the attire of the kids, you can tell the difference between thugs and regular people for the most part.

has anyone ever read Early Manuscripts, Church Fathers and the Authorized Version with Manuscript Digests and Summaries by J.A. Moorman, It is very similiar to Revision Revised in that it has lots of factual evidence but is a much morerecent book (2005). Let me give an example of something...

There's a lot of points on both sides. but really not much scripture... Whats the scripture say?

Rom 3:9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; Rom 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: Rom 3:11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God...

Were the 8 souls literally saved by water? no they weren't they were saved by the Ark which is a picture of Christ. so it wasn't that they were saved from judgement, the Water separated them from the wickedness of the world at the time of Noah in the same way Baptism is the first step of...

They were cut off from service, hence God started using the Church to deal with mankind, and God stops using Christians who backslide. the whole chapter is about how God has set the nation of Israel on the shelf for now and is using the church instead.

Bob how many times do I have to tell you that Romans 11 is about God changing his plans of working with mankind from working with Israel to working with the church. Bob you're consistent taking scripture out of context is really getting old. and please don't go to the verse in Galatians that...

I completely agree on the easy believism, I am an advocate of Repentance and Faith for Salvation, You cannot divorce repentance from salvation, but repentance is a change of mind that results in action (Fruit) , repentance is not the actions/works (fruit), the CoC doctrine of salvation is an...
