Philippians 1 27 Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel, 28 and not in any way terrified by your...

God would not have left the bible to be construed together just by the decisioning of men. Men were moved by the Holy Spirit to accomplish His purposes. God always intervenes in the affairs of men whether they acknowledge God at work or not working, God is at work. To take the other view is to...

Yes, hearing they do not hear. the unbelieving Jews would have heard Christ speaking but not hear Him as they were not of God. Saul becoming Paul was 'of God and so then heard with understanding. The same idea is God must gives ears to hear what the Spirit says. Here is an example of this in...

I think you realize even defining 'gospel' is going mean different things to different people who hold on to different ideas. Some are heretical as in they set themselves apart from what God says is the gospel. Paul declares that this is the gospel 1 Corinthians 15 New King James Version (NKJV)...

Every single person who is born into this world is evil by their nature, and they all of them follow after the prince of the power of the air, that is the devil, Satan, and to him they give their allegiance and they follow the lusts of the flesh. All are sinners and God never promised to save...

Your last question is meant to disrespect Calvinism though. I see the same thing in some others here who post talking about the evil God of Calvinism that Calvinists believe in an evil God. .

You can speak good words, but God is the one at work changing the heart.

You do not persuade people to believe, you simply witness to the TRUTH. God is the decider, He is the author and finisher of any person's faith.

This destroys Arminianism. There are no other people who get saved except those God gives to Christ. They come to Christ, but beforehand they are given to Christ. What truly comes first? being given or coming to Christ. John 6 35 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to...

If they really knew the scriptures as in understood them, they would not say these things. Why put up with false teaching. Just like Paul telling the Galatians, begin with the spirit and end with the flesh..There is nothing arrogant about telling the truth, Jesus spoke harsh words, to those who...

Your being kind of silly here with your accusations against Calvinism!

None have been driven away from God by Calvinism. Anyone who departs from the faith are not of US, they are of the devil. A big problem with non Calvinists, they do not know enough scriptures so they feed on fleshy ideas like your suggestion. Just one example that Christ loses none of those...

HaHa, that is #64:Tongue Totally agree with you, scripture is written for us. Unbelievers dont care. 2 Timothy 3:14-17 New King James Version (NKJV) 14 But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15 and that from...

Romans 8, we have already received the adoption as God's children, we dont wait for it. 15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are...

John 5 also demonstrates Calvinism 37 And the Father Himself, who sent Me, has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 38 But you do not have His word abiding in you, because whom He sent, Him you do not believe. 39 You search the Scriptures, for in...

Yes of course, but if he does not believe in inerrancy, then this "All scripture is given by inspiration of God" is not going to make any difference to him. Moses and the Apostles were given the words to write down, from God as in a communication from God, which he does not believe God did...

I was talking with someone and they go to church and are a believer. However they do not believe scripture is the inspired word of God, or that it is inerrant. He says it is inspired the same as if someone were inspired by a subject to write a book, not that it is God's word, they are man's word...

We are not sinlessly perfect, but your ignoring the flesh versus the spirit and saying it is all one and the same as a single person inseparable when it is not. God separates them even if you can't see that. Here we see the distinct parts that make up a whole person, soul- spirit- joints...

Hebrews 12 specifically states that justified men's spirits are made perfect. This is not sinless perfectionism and we still have not been glorified with a glorified body. Sinless perfectionism as I understand the teaching is you have to maintain your own perfect sinlessness or you have lost...

Yes there is a resurrection of the wicked and the just. To be resurrected means to put life back into a body, so then raised up. The justified get a glorified body, but the wicked dont get a glorified body, but they do get a body. Where the worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched...
