I can guarantee you I know whom I have believed in. I am 100% certain I am one of the elect.

None of the OT saints were regenerated and they understood their sin and need for God's promised Savior.

The Promise It is nothing short of astounding how Calvinism has blinded many from the New Covenant which is what the coming of Christ is all about. What was Abraham promised that he and the great faith giants, and all who died in faith, never received in their mortal lives? "Paul, an...

You are avoiding answering about David. Calvinist like to point to David's cry to God as proof of regeneration in the OT. So why was David afraid of losing his salvation?

Jesus' exchange with Nic is blowing right over top of your head due to your Calvinistic glasses which dim the light of the scriptures. Jesus is the head Master of Israel, He was setting Nic in his proper place.

Why not? "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith." (Ro1)...

and that is another false comment!

Yes, that is what a Pharisee was, a TEACHER IN ISRAEL... Really? Thanks, nobody new this.....:rolleyes: You are not reading the text very well... That is exactly what Jesus said to him...."Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he...

Are you saying David would have been an Arminian that believes God can take away his salvation?

False statement! I gave supporting scripture which has not been refuted because it cannot be.

He was a Pharisee! He was suppose to understand the scriptures. He should have known about the New Covenant (regeneration/new heart) that God was going to implement. Do you know about the New Covenant? Or do you believe there is only one? The old and the new being one in the same?

So you believe David was in fear of losing his salvation?

So then those children of God who die with unconfessed sins will go to hell? Or purgatory I guess to have it whipped out of them. :thumbs: But remember, According to the pope, God needed the pope's permission to forgive the sins.

Just heard on the news the pope has decided God will forgive those who have had an abortion. :applause: IF of course they are sincerely contrite about it......and the crowds cheered and weeped hoping to catch a glimps of him or if they are really lucky, kiss his hand.

False statement! Many are called, few are chosen. There was no such thing as born-again until after Jesus Christ was glorified... He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe...

The scripture gives instructions for forming congregations. So how can we be in obedience to God's Word if we do not participate in what God has ordained? Sure no church is perfect, but are we part of the problem or part of the solution? Or just complainers....

Where the Calvinist errors is in the conflating of the drawing with the converting. All men will be drawn to Christ, not all men will be converted - born-again.

My friend is only one of millions who are drawn by the Holy Spirit, having the truth of the gospel revealed unto them, yet because they love darkness rather than light they do not make the choice to receive Jesus Christ - born again. I have seen it played out dozens of times, the Spirit convicts...

I have a friend who tells me all the time he believes Jesus is the Son of God, but he does not want to follow Him. God has revealed Christ unto him, but he refuses to call upon Jesus Christ for salvation.

Think this through brother. Six times God uses the word "reem" when describing something so powerful that it cannot compare to any human effort or anything a human can bind. No KJV translators were thinking of a horse with a horn when they chose "unicorn". Could it really be a "wild ox"...
