    Single Predestination

    The non-elect cant respond positively to the gospel and can not bear good fruit to God. Refer to the parable of the sower sowing the seed. Only one type fell on the good ground and bore much fruit. none of the other bore any fruit to maturity. That good soil was the prepared heart of the new...

    Single Predestination

    Only the elect actually obtain salvation, here is the way Peter preaches it. Only God's elect are begotten again into a living hope. I divided it into letters to show how this work. 1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, a. To God’s elect, exiles scattered throughout the provinces of Pontus...

    Prove it wrong: There is not one verse about predestination to salvation

    If 'For whom He did foreknew, He did also predestine' is true , then its opposite, For Whom He did not foreknow, He did not predestine' is logically true. Which proves the predestination of individuals He foreknew is true.

    Prove it wrong: There is not one verse about predestination to salvation

    Its right in your chart, your putting the emphasis on believers as a generalized type person that God saves, not the called individual person. As your showing, 'predestination of the believer', which is not 'For whom He foreknew'. It changes the verse meaning entirely.

    Prove it wrong: There is not one verse about predestination to salvation

    God foreknows individuals as His people, not the concept of believers as His people. That is the subterfuge playing out against the meaning here. As it says, For Whom He foreknew, He also predestined. So then who is changing the meaning of the verse, OP, who is claiming it says 'Believers He...

    Prove it wrong: There is not one verse about predestination to salvation

    You presented a distorted opinion of what 'predestination' means. So no you established nothing. except your own interpretation.

    Prove it wrong: There is not one verse about predestination to salvation

    The word means this accoding to the dictionary. Apparently you dont agree with dictionaries. Your writing your own dictionary. Oxford pre·des·ti·na·tion noun (as a doctrine in Christian theology) the divine foreordaining of all that will happen, especially with regard to the salvation of some...

    Prove it wrong: There is not one verse about predestination to salvation

    Your distorting the meaning, it is not worthy of discussion by limiting to a few versus a concept which also includes God's works, foreknowledge, predestination, calling, and election of individuals. It's like you have this huge work of writing, and out of it you grab one sentence, and then...

    Prove it wrong: There is not one verse about predestination to salvation

    God does not plan or know the future? Our salvation is not a work of God? On the 7th day, God rested from all His works. Acts 15:18 “Known to God from eternity are all His works. John 6:29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”

    Does God have a free will?

    Ok, scripture says it is impossible for God to lie. And God said Christ was a priest forever, so here is some proof God can not hate what He loves or send them to Hell. Of course He cant hate Himself can He? And as our high priest Christ makes intercession for the saints according to the will...

    Does God have a free will?

    One thing to remember, God completed all His works and rested on the 7th day in the first week of creation. Ecclesiastes 3:14 I know that whatever God does, It shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, And nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him. God had this...

    Does God have a free will?

    Jesus said with God all things are possible. But God will not choose to do such a thing as He is a God of promises and God swears by an oath to do certain things, so we see the immutability of His council at work. But He could do anything as He is God Almighty, but He chooses to not do...

    Does God have a free will?

    God does what He pleases, He is free in Himself to do whatever He wants, this is according to His nature. But His nature is also that His promise is He will torment the wicked in Hell and reward the righteous with good things. God defines what is sin, God also decides whether to impute or not...

    Single Predestination

    John 8:47 He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.” By Jesus saying this, obviously people who cant 'hear' as in hear and obey and believe and see, (all goes along with this hearing) , are not of God. They remain in their naturally fallen and...

    Single Predestination

    God did not give to people from their birth, eyes that see, ears that can hear Him, or a heart that perceives God at work. This is their natural condition from their birth. If God did not give them eyes that see, that means the eyes God gave them can not see from their natural birth, as He...

    Single Predestination

    Regarding the devil blinding people, the devil is a counterfeit god, he can not make blind eyes see, nor can he make eyes that see blind. The devil just captures the fallen evil imagination of blinded men and further blinds them, reinforcing the blindness they already have due to their fallen...

    Single Predestination

    In scripture, God blinds some and others are blinded by the devil. John 12:37-41 New King James Version (NKJV) 37 But although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in Him, 38 that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed...

    Single Predestination

    The elect in scripture means chosen of God for salvation, honestly there are not any non-elect people who God saves. Paul tells us who the elect are, describing both elect and non elect. Of the non elect, they are the rest who were blinded, in this case by God. Romans 11:1-8 New King James...

    Think about, we have fake news. And now we have a fake impeachment. It is fake in a number of ways, one of which, Pelosi wont send it to the senate. These democrats are loving a lie.
