    Bible Illiteracy in America

    A Pew Research poll in 2010 found that evangelicals ranked only a smidgen higher than atheists in familiarity with the New Testament and Jesus’s teachings. The old saying "If you do not know what you believe, you are bound to believe anything' rings true. American's are bibilically illiterate...

    Volition

    We were coerced into believing. In John 6, "you are UNABLE to come to me UNLESS the Father who sent me DRAW HIM', this word 'Draw' literally means 'Dragged", as the women at the well, she was 'Dragged by the neck". God save us as prophesied in the OT by "Taking out the heart of stone and putting...

    If you are not Reformed, you cannot believe in eternal security

    Hey, don't EVER do that, that's a flat out lie, misquoting me as if I meant that sentence in isolation. Do you guys not care about lying, aren't we Christians here? My point was that we don't go off our own understanding, but trust in the Lord, we can't trust our thoughts, emotions, our only...

    If you are not Reformed, you cannot believe in eternal security

    If someone says they don't not believe in either camp they know not of which they speak.

    If you are not Reformed, you cannot believe in eternal security

    You'll be waiting along time! Here's the thing, I'm pretty sure, most, that is those who have studied, have had the word of God, who've seen the verses, and reject them, yes they are just 'professing Christians' and not saved, don't possess the Spirit of God, maybe walked down some aisle and...

    If you are not Reformed, you cannot believe in eternal security

    Wrong, try again. Yes the synergist can be assured if YOU WORK, but since God has no say so in your salvation, its ultimately up to you, and you never know you can have a "Job" experience, and what arrogance to say 'oh i'd be fine", no you have NO ASSURANCE, you were the one determining...

    If you are not Reformed, you cannot believe in eternal security

    Has nothing to do with john Calvin or Martin Luther, it has to do with what you believe, and yes, you can have NO ASSURANCE. Since salvation is ultimately up to you, you determine whether you'll make it to the end or not, 'He who endures to the end will be saved', Gee hope you are...

    If you are not Reformed, you cannot believe in eternal security

    There is only ONE WAY to have certainty that one that day or period that you KNEW you were saved, that you would make it to glory, is if you believe the truth of Reformed Theology. I think Arminians have never really thought out what they believe, even if they haven't thought the following, if...

    If your going to pray... Include the name of Jesus

    Here's a interesting piece; "Praying in Jesus’ name means praying with His authority and asking God the Father to act upon our prayers because we come in the name of His Son, Jesus. Praying in Jesus' name means the same thing as praying according to the will of God, “This is the confidence we...

    If your going to pray... Include the name of Jesus

    i I didn't think anything bad about it, haven't really did a in-depth study on it, it's why put "Just my 2 cents":) But thinking about it, well maybe that's my next study:)

    From Babylon Bee: Calvinist Researchers Complete Development Of Elect Detector

    This is blatant Blasphemy, moderators? What this Arminian doesn't understand, aside from the fact that God is furious at him, is that the Arminian CAN'T PRAY FOR ANYONE! Why? For if the Arminian prays for say a unbeliever, he is asking God to violate the unbelievers free will, and oh you can't...

    If your going to pray... Include the name of Jesus

    Great post! Is it not required? "From here if you ask for anything IN MY NAME it will be given". I agree, no requirement, but if the aforementioned is correct, which it is, wouldn't we pray that way? "Pray in my name, receive this promise", it follows that promise doesn't apply if we don't...

    And I Give Them Eternal Life and They Shall Never Perish

    Since you wish to know the process, Jesus makes it clear, John 6, the people were following Him because he had fed them, but were arguing, grumbling among themselves as to how Jesus could be Messiah, Jesus gives the ENTIRE PROCESS, HOW IT WORKS, FROM A-Z, TULIP IF YOU LIKE. "Why do you grumble...

    Spiritual Interpretation....pt4

    Yeah it's something huh? Imagine us down here being dogmatic about a falsehood. I used to be Arminian, not really when I became aware of the debate I was, didn't like what I thought was wrong with Reformed Theology, I fought it, but was always cautious, I see some on here saying "Reformed...

    Spiritual Interpretation....pt4

    I thought about it today. I do 100% believe what I'm telling you, I'd call myself "Paftial Preterist/Boy have we been duped by the Dispensationalists", I don't want to present ANYTHING FALSE, I cannot misinterpret God's word, yes "Age is Covenant", "Whoever commits the sin against the Holy Spirt...

    Oh my gosh these people are stuuuuuuupid. Sorry can't do it anymore, they either don't read or don't understand what you say, so "When did Jesus come in the clouds", Oh my goodness, America, the Illiterate, God please shed your grace on thee"

    That's not what I said, re-read it slowly so you might understand what I'm saying so you don't mis-characterize me.

    False, try again. "Knew" never means "Knowledge" in scripture, it's a bad translation into English, "Adam KNEW Eve" and they conceived. God KNOWS EVERYTHING, CANNOT LEARN ANYTHING, it means a loving Relationship before we were born

    Spiritual Interpretation....pt4

    Never said He totally rejected Israel, "Not all Israel is Israel", second what battle of Armageddon, you mean the one of Christian Fiction writers? And no there are no future plans, that was invented mid 1800's by a lunatic named John Darby and his "Brethren", see only they had true Revelation...

    If your going to pray... Include the name of Jesus

    Sorry that's not what it means, It means "Praying in MY PLACE". If I were to visit a king, they would throw me out, but if I said "I come in the name of the Kings Son, my friend", I would be heard. Arminians should never pray for others anyways, for they are asking God to change mans free will...
