    Question For My Reformed Brothers And Sistes, Will God Take Care Of Us?

    Thank you, yeah I'm with you, I must have read every commentary/sermon on Job there is. I even have the "Body covered with sores", a outbreak of Psoriasis from stress, not like his, I'm no Job, but pain is pain. I see people, perhaps they lose a child, like me there is nothing like it, but they...

    Question For My Reformed Brothers And Sistes, Will God Take Care Of Us?

    This is a very serious question, so your proper exegesis of the passages, or just general teachings that you know would be appreciated. I'll cite two places; One Jesus says to His disciples in Matthew 6:26, Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet...

    Poll: Your view of tithing and giving

    If you are going to "Tithe", then it better be 22%, for that was the OT Tithe, 10% for Levites, 10% for general fund, 2% for poor, God gave laws that took care of His people. The word "Tithe" nor any reference to it is given in the NT, however something opposite to the Tithe is given, "The...

    Being religious vs. being spiritual

    Who says "Fulfilled" means "Ended", do you know what the bible means when it says we are "Dead to the Law"? It means that the law CANNOT JUDGE US ANYMORE, for Christ fulfilled it's demands, and we receive a "foreign Righteousness". This righteousness is given us through the Spirit, and we do...

    Being religious vs. being spiritual

    Good job! It's the intent of the word, "Spiritual" means, in modern vernacular, NOTHING, I see it everywhere "I'm Spiritual but not Religious", fine what kind of Spiritual? Evil Spiritual? The term "Religion" has also been turned on it's head, it's common meaning among our fathers is...

    Election, Predestination and Scripture

    This paragraph wins my prize for the most muddled amount of error mixed with eisgeses, wow!

    Perseverance of the Saints v Eternal Security

    This is a clear example of illiteracy, of not being able to understand that God WORKS OUT OUR SALVATION, yes its true that the Elect were never, or never are in any danger, yet NONETHELESS THE WORK MUST BE DONE. How about this one Arminiains Jeremiah 32:40, you know that Old Book, the one...

    Bible Illiteracy in America

    I must say it's remarkable how defensive I see some on this thread. If you do not think American is bibilcially illiterate, that should tell you that you probably are. Just look at this forum, for Christians, yet there are a handful who actually have STUDIED the bible, over 90% a biblically...

    Being religious vs. being spiritual

    Jason that is faulty logic, "Being in Christ means being in the Word which means being in Torah, then you add "Obedience"? What? Christ did something wonderful for the elect, He lived a perfect life FOR THEM, then He made sure His sheep would never perish, how? By dying specifically for them, by...

    Being religious vs. being spiritual

    I see this everywhere, it's the new "Cop Out", "Not Religious, but Spiritual", anyone see that? Well Spiritual HOW? Evil Spirit? You always go to first cause of a word, and that maintains it's meaning, the first use of SPIRIT is in Genesis, if others wish to co-opt the word so they can seem, I...

    Hell: Which View is The Bible One?

    Wrong, Jesus is using that verse to illustrate a point, He's not using it word for word, same meaning, how could you come up with that? In the NT Jesus uses SYMBOLS, but as RC Sproul and others have so eloquently pointed out, Symbols don't point to a better reality, but a worse reality, if I say...

    Hell: Which View is The Bible One?

    If you want to know the BIBLICAL VIEW, it's number one. The line "A general tension has developed....." is simply false, perhaps with non-believers, but not with true, Regenerated Christians, for we believe what we don't understand, it's called "FAITH". What IS a real problem in these days of...

    GAP Theory

    No reason for a GAP theory my friend, all of the SCIENTIFIC evidence points to a young earth. GAP was invented because some couldn't answer the question of seeming billions of years, but it's impossible that we were here for very long, IE Magnetic field, go back just 20,000 years an we'd all be...

    Theistic evolution or non-theistic evolution

    I don't understand, all of the Scientific evidence points, today, AGAINST Evolution, in fact Scientists are getting away from traditional Neo-Darwinism, they're moving to Philosophy, specifically a brand of Hinduism that teaches parallel universes, see the laws of this universe, we know now...

    Psalms/Proverbs/New Testament combo?

    Yeah it's a big problem, today when you say "Bible" people think "New Testament", it's one reason for Americas illiteracy.

    2 Thessalonians 2:13 handled properly

    Did you just say we are "Chosen for Salvation", "Through Sanctification"? I don't want to put words in your mouth, you're a loose writer, but if you think your salvation is based on YOUR SANCTIFICATION you need to attend the Church of Rome, one of the major arguments of the Reformation. If we...

    2 Thessalonians 2:13 handled properly

    John Gill is one of the most underrated Theologians of all time, ironically 100 years before Spurgeon took the pulpit, Gill was there. Spurgeon was immersed in Gills commentaries, Gill was there as they brought in majority texts, a wonderful time.

    We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God

    Yeah just use the opposite on them. Ask "Since God created knowing billions would not have the gospel, and since He has the power to provide it, His withholding scripture is equivalent of passing over them, what's the difference"? The difference is that what the bible teaches has PURPOSE...

    We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God

    Ignorance. He is knocking on what? Everyone's door? NO THE ANOPOLIS DOOR, HE'S KNOCKING ON A CHRISTIAN CHURCH'S DOOR, WHY DON'T YOU STUDY YOUR BIBLE BEFORE IGNORANTLY COMMENTING, you don't know the Bible, you don't know Arminianism, you don't know Reformed Theology, have you no fear of God...

    We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God

    Your lack of understanding of Scripture and Reformed Theology is breathtaking. Only through the Spirit of God can one understand. So with your verse, are you saying it's possible that man can live without ever sinning? I think you are. You should read the Heidelberg Catechism sometimes, it gives...
