I cannot navigate to your website’s Home page. The About page seems to serve as the Home page. On both pages, it should be immediately clear what this website is for — so a picture up at the top, of people worshiping in home meetings, of Myanmar on a globe, so people will know where this nation...

On the About page, the links at the bottom do not work, the Categories and Pages. They look like links, but when selected, do not go anywhere.

The potential is not in the Savior, it’s in the acceptance of the Savior. This is not a perfect analogy, but I think it comes close. It’s as if a rich man determined all the financial debt of an entire town, then declared he would give each person the funds required to pay off their debts, but...

Yes, Eve was planned by God to be a suitable helper for Adam. You ask a great question — in what ways did Eve help Adam? Here are some ways, based on scripture and my experience with a godly wife. 1. Eve helped Adam steward the earth and tend the garden. 2. Eve helped Adam obey God’s command...

Church membership should be based on deeply spiritual discernment by elders who determine if a new member is genuinely saved. They should ask about how the person has changed, why they wanted to get saved, how they came to Christ, what they consider to be the basic doctrines of the faith, and...

Then you are calling Jesus foolish, for He said… Luke 14:10 For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.

I know of no scripture that says “get born again, then repent and believe in Jesus Christ.”

You added “of the saved” to “Christ is the Savior of the world.” Thus, you must add words to scripture verses in order to make the verses comply with your limited atonement ideology. Scripture on its own contradicts you.

God does not need a shield from anything. God knew the devil would tempt Jesus in the wilderness, and did nothing to keep him out. But allowing temptation does not mean wanting sin to happen. You now, misapplying James 4:17, accuse God of knowing that something good (preventing temptation and...

kyredneck said: ...and/or: 14 ... Is there unrighteousness with God?... Romans 9 All the complaints against God's Sovereign Grace have their roots in these. There is no unrighteousness with God, for He does not will sin to happen.

You personal attacks, name calling, and wish to harm those who disagree with you does not help your case.

We agree that God knew that Adam would fall. But no, it was not God’s will that Adam failed the test. God never wills sin to happen. The entire Bible proclaims the holy nature of God in opposition to all sin. Most Christians understand that what God allows or foreknows is not the same as what...

I deny that God wants sin to exist. Sin is never what pleases God. You are playing games with words to dishonor the holy nature of God.

No, we are not debating the Person of Christ. I have not once in this thread discussed that topic. The disagreement is strictly about the holiness of God: did God want Adam to disobey Him and commit sin? Debating hypotheticals is pointless. Who would Christ be if Lucifer never rebelled and...

People sin, but God never wills anyone to sin. To say God wants evil to happen is blasphemy. People reject God and perish, but God wants all to be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. Yet Jesus says the road to life is narrow, and few there be that find it.

Psalty, you nailed it! They fabricate a fiction, that God decrees a plan of Adam disobeying God and committing sin, so that God can employ His Son as the redeemer.

No, my position is: What God allows is not what God wills to happen. I see our disagreement being centered on God wanting Adam to sin. This is blasphemy, making our holy God to be the champion of evil.

There you have it — you can be born again without coming to Christ. Coming to Christ comes after. Then why did John the Baptist, Jesus, and Peter preach “Repent and believe the gospel”? To comply with this Calvinist error, there would be no command in the preaching, since the unsaved cannot...
