Sorry to have to repeat, but Scripture should NOT be ignored. 1) The Garden of Eden was not Paradise, which is the third heaven. But the Garden of Eden was a "type" for "Paradise." 2) Abraham's bosom was NOT Paradise, which is the third heaven. Recall no one ascended to the third heaven...

How is a lost person "drawn" to Christ? We love Him because He first loved us. Thus the lovingkindness of Christ as shown in the Gospel by Christ dying for our sins, is what "draws" the lost to Christ. And this, of course, occurs BEFORE we place our faith in Christ. All this hocus-pocus...

I see yet another fiction being asserted. A person must be born anew before they will trust in the Lord. This again is directly refuted by scripture. John 1:12 NASB But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name, The lost...

No one has ever said or suggested the North was without sins. And the premise, two wrongs make a right is demonic. You do NOT excuse bad behavior by pointing to someone else with bad behavior. Turning now to the Small Pox Blanket hoax, let me set the record straight: In about 1763 officers...

But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. (Deuteronomy 4:29) Folks, scripture says over and over, if the lost seek God, through trust without reservation, they will find Him. But in their distress they...

More denial of the obvious. No mention that Calvinism says no one ever seeks God, but Jesus says many seek God. Then to continue down the Calvinist road of denial, this poster says "the fallen are entirely unable to find God," but the parallel verse, Matthew 7:14, says a few find God, the...

The false claim of Calvinism defines being dead in sins as being unable to seek God. But many seek God. The issue is not that fallen people are predisposed to sin. But whether or not the fallen condition renders the person unable to understand the gospel. Calvinism says the fallen are...

Go figure, importing slaves was blocked, so do you resupply for those enslaved? You get as many pregnant as you need! All these efforts to excuse those condoning slavery shows a lack of repentance. If I had been raised in the South, I might be in that category, but I was not, and my...

A none denial denial. Many seek the narrow door is truth no one ever seeks after God is heresy. When shown their error, they do not repent. They double down, the many were NOT really seeking God. They nullify verse after verse saying they do not mean what they say. People are NOT chosen...

Once again, a totally false claim is made against me. Luke 13:24 NASB: “Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. And here is the quote from my post #7: Note the poster asks questions but does not explain how many seek the...

Two wrongs do not make a right. America Slavery was horrific, anti-Christian, depravity. Pointing to something worse is non-germane. BTW, I agree the treatment of the native peoples who occupied the land now called America was horrific, anti-Christian depravity. Last point, yes, grifters...

1) I understand scripture to say "today, the day that I died, you will be with Me in Paradise, the third Heaven, the abode of God. 2) Your statement that Jesus did NOT enter Paradise the day He died, seems contrary to scripture. 3) 1 Peter 3:18-19 indicates once Christ died, He could bring...

Nope, the enslaved women were as slave makers. That is tantamount to sexual abuse. Recall the line, "there are blue eyed blacks in every Ghetto in America. "Black women’s childbearing became a centerpiece of the system of chattel slavery."...

You have no idea what the meaning of "all have sinned!" And being separated from God due to being made sinners, means being "dead in sin." Note the poster asks questions but does not explain how many seek the narrow door if being spiritually dead precludes it.

I had not realized that a faction of Christians do NOT believe the OT saints were all taken to "Abraham's bosom" when they physically died, and had to wait there until they could be made "perfect" after Christ had died to provide the means to be made perfect. Sheol is a Hebrew word, found about...

No verse says or suggests the lost "sinned in Adam!" Certainly when conceived we were "made sinners" and thus in Adam, in his sinful state of spiritual separation from God, spiritually "dead." Unborn babies, who have done nothing good or bad, such as sinning, are still conceived in sin, thus...

I disagree, the calls for reparations are simply another form of racist nonsense from the demonic school of two wrongs make a right. There were about 4 million, not 400,000 slaves living in the United States just before our civil war to free the slaves. People were not only kidnapped into...

My thought exactly, as in years past, that part of Arizona did suffer crimes of kidnap and extortion from Narco-Terrorist international organizations. Militating against it, though, is our closed border, which has reduced the "chance encounter" crimes of opportunity. But the sophistication of...

The verse can be useful in instruction. Even though our safety under the New Covenant is never at risk, we still need to grow more like Christ and more effective as witnesses for the gospel. Thus we all need to seek and depend upon God's guidance.

Paul, a bond-servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the faith of those chosen of God and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness, in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised long ages ago, NASB Titus 1:1-2. While we can find the suggest of...
